if you look at the 2002 zl1 cars honestly and compare what they will do versus the original cars, the 2002 cars deserve more respect than they get. imo it takes some time for some things to be fully appreciated. the 69 cars can never be replaced or duplicated, it was a special time in history and a very special batch of cars, none the less the 2002 cars are very unique, powerful and capable cars.
