Trading in a Z28 on an SXT??? Ouch... I don't think I could do that. You're going to miss that LT1.

The only bad thing I've heard about the AWD SXT is the gas mileage suffers a bit from driving the front wheels and it accelerates a little slower from being slightly underpowered. I have a RWD SXT, so I might not be the best persont to answer.

On a side note, if it was a toss up between my IROC and Magnum, I can't part with that IROC!
