Go with what you can afford. But you better hurry if you want to make a change. I went with the 2LT on my 07 and regretted it. So, my 14 has 3LT.

I went with the 1LT and Z-51 and I am happy that I did. The options in the 2LT/3LT were not worth the money to me. Could I afford them? Yes, but the bottom line, I didn't want them. What's really important here is that you get what you want and what you can afford.

Buyer's remorse can ruin the enjoyment of ownership. Think of the extra cost of the 2LT as insurance against buyer's remorse.

The price tag is so steep between the two packages when these are the only two things I need. Ugh, I think I'm just looking to get talked into changing my order.
Love the Heads Up, never had it before. What really surprised me were the Ventilated Seats. Living in S. CA, I drive around without the Top most of the time. Even on a relatively cool day, the Sun beating down, especially in around town driving gets to be a little much. I hit that switch and it's night and day. They aren't "Air Conditioned" Ventilated Seats like my Wife's Car, but they do the job. BTW - If you don't have them and you are uncomfortable sitting in Traffic, just flick on the Air Conditioner. Even with the Top off and the Windows down, it cools you off. Just think of it as your contribution to Globull (sic) Cooling. There are other things on my Car that I probably wouldn't have ordered, but I'm glad whoever did place the order put them in. My favorite are the Competition Seats. They look great and they are very comfortable. Makes the inside look like an Exotic and I can't tell you how many people comment on them the first time they see the Car. It might be because the Car is CGM and the Seats are AR. They stand out to say the least. Good luck with your choice. Whatever you get will bring a smile to your face, I guarantee it. :thumbs: |

I have a 1lt and it's perfect. Since they added the tilt wheel and extra power seat. But corvette number seven and 5 of minutes of hud use. it's worthless! heated seats same thing. the memory seats are not working well lots of threads on those. Never bother using that gimmick either The Stereo sounds great and has the 2 10's for bass. A ten out does a 8 on low end any way. z51 is the thing you want. The 19-20's look way better. Resale will be better the Z51 is selling 5-1! or more! :rock: |

The 2LT will bring more money and easier resale over a 1LT. Your ordering white/red and that alone you should go with the 2LT.

I think the HUD is great, I have it on my 03 with 100K, I really miss it when driving my wife's Grand Cherokee. Heated and cooled seats are nice as well.
My vote is for the 2LT, it has a lot of content for the money. That said I ordered the 3LT, because I wanted to Brownstone color and it is only available in 3LT. |

Memory seats. I am the only driver, I reposition the seats all the time and sometimes after a trip the seat adjustment is way off. I hit the recall button and set everything back to my zero position. Use the memory seat setting all the time.

:iagree: I'm totally with you, man. The only thing I cared about that the 1LT doesn't have are the heated/ventilated seats, but after reading the reports from several people on this forum they don't work that well anyway so that made my decision easy. I've never been interested in the HUD, an upgraded stereo is useless since I usually have the windows down and/or top out listening to the exhaust and I'm the only one who drives the car so I don't need memory seats. I can easily afford the $4200 upgrade to 2LT, but honestly I just feel like I'd be giving that money away. I'd rather look at it as having half of a supercharger paid for when the time comes. :cool:

http://i575.photobucket.com/albums/s...psd0f98495.jpg Hardly the plenty box with more room less weight. 7th Corvette and it's perfect for options. The rest of the Cadillac stuff like heated seats, memory mirrors and seats even the HUD are great cause you can leave them off! Or pay extra for them. I prefer the sports car ride and looks of the Z51. In a corvette If I want a caddy ride I take my Tacoma! TRD! :D :thumbs: |

I going with the 1LT because I will only be putting about 3000 miles on it this year and probably no more than a thousand a year after that. So for me the 2LT isn't worth the extra cost and I don't plan on ever selling the car. |

Like houses as they get older, you never want to have the most expensive house on the block. The lower priced models will draw the most attention. Also, what happens with most commodities like houses and Corvettes, is the lower priced models will pull down the price of the higher priced ones and higher priced models will pull up the price on the lower priced ones. |

No way. After a few years you will only get back half the $4200 and it's not going to keep someone from buying the car because it only has a 1LT.
OF COURSE there are going to be some who will pass over a 1LT C7 in favor of a 2LT if they want the features that includes. |
