It's basically a ZR1 with a Z06 engine which for me is ideal. I prefer NA. And because that package has magnetic ride its also way more comfortable than the regular Z06.

I would not buy a Z06 without that package.

Here's a write up on it

You'll love it if your looking for a purpose built speed machine! And I would option for the base model as well and add coilovers. As for replacing the carbon ceramic brakes from the z07 package.....

I just got back from chuckwalla this weekend with my new brake setup, raybestos st43 all around and front 2 piece performance friction rotors and I have nothing but praise for that setup. I'm going to need some Hoosiers to get the most out of those brakes. Clocked a consistent 2.05. I'm going to change my alignment though, bc I was under steering all day. Well that and I'm not that fast of a driver...
