Question New zl1 OR Fix up 02

I just wanted to know what you all thought. I have an 02 z28 b4c that has a bit of cosmetic issues and would take a bit to get it up to the condition I would want it. Just wondering which you guys think would be smarter. Get a new zl1 or spend all the time and money to get the 02 up to great to perfect condition? So what do you all think?

The B4C is a cool car if done right. I know someone with a B4C and had it all repainted and restored to match a Florida Highway Patrol B4C, car draws a ton of looks at car shows.

sell the 02 and buy the zl1. Unless there is unsurpassable sentimental value.

just my $0.02

Keep the b4c and buy a ZL1 that is a good option?

pretty much what everybody else says. If the B4C has any sentimental value to you, just hold on to it for now. If not, the fact that it's a B4C will probably get you a better price selling it. Either way, BUY THE ZL1 PLEASE

Well If I had 50K rolling around my pocket I would go for the ZL1. I mean seriously who would not want to have 550 supercharged, Shelby eating horses stuffed under the hood of one of the sexiest cars ever made? The only thing I can get my head wrapped around is the price tag. If it were me I would drive the B4C, and only take the ZL1 out on pretty days. The ZL1 is going to be a special car with a limited run and if history repeats itself like it always does the ZL1 will be worth a mint in 30 or 40 years. Can you say retirement fund?
