05 Order Question - Z51 Performance Package or F55 Magnetic Selective Suspension

I'm having my c6 order submited by my dealer to GM for production this week and am unsure which suspension package I should select. The two options are:


Z51 Performance Package:
Specific chocks and springs designed for more control
Larger stabilizer bars
Larger, cross-drilled brake rotorsand track-tuned linings
Engine oil, power steering and transmission coolers
Specific higher-grip Goodyear EMT tires with asymmetrical tread patterns
Specific six speed manual transmission with quicker gearing

OR

F55 Magnetic Selective Ride Control:
First introduced on the 2004 50th anniversary edition vette , this adjustable ride control system utilizes vehicle sensors and a software program to adjust the vehicle chocks for optimal damping on all four wheels independently. Includes driver-selectable Tour and Sport modes.


I do not plan to race or ever bring this car to the track however I do like to drive fast. I'm also trying to select all of the high-end options so if i ever resell the car I can consider it "loaded". With that said, what is the "better"/more high-end option the z51 performance package or the f55 magnetic selective ride control option?

Z51 is pretty much a Z06 suspension, without buying a Z06.

the z51 one is going to have a much harder ride, and would be better if your going to be racing. If your not going to be racing or anything, get the magnetic one. Its more high-tech and would most likely get you a better resale value
