Rear traction bar on the V.
The standard XLR already has the mounts for this bar.
Something to add on??

They just left off what they put on Corvettes; no rear sway bar for a more "Cadillac" sort of ride. You could bolt a Corvette sway bar right on if you want one.

Have you tried the four modes of handling yet?

I would like to consider this mod. Are you saying any rear sway bar for a C6 Corvette will bolt on? Will it be noticed enough to be worth it?

yes, if you look under you car, you can see where it bolts up, same mounts as the C6.
I'd like to here about someone trying it....I would think it would make considerable difference, depending how you drive it.

I've seen them range from mild to racing or $199 to $700. I was a little surprised that a bar of steel would cost as much as 700. I don't want to spend 199 if it is so cheap it is usless but on the other hand I'm not spending $700 either.:banghead

There are two, different sway bars available for the C6. The standard unit and the beefier unit that is part of the Z51 suspension package.
