Holy Shit! Nothing like going all the way when You do it!

I've got a 17, 1SS and even THAT level of performance is astounding. You Sir are in for a real treat.

Good Luck with it.

2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE
Shocking performance, shocking price.
Corvette Z06–derived LT4 supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 good for 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. GM tapped Goodyear and the tiremaker brought its Eagle F1 Supercar 3R to the table: 305/30ZR-19s in the front and 325/30ZR-19 steamrollers at the rear, which is the widest tire ever fitted to a Camaro. One thing you won’t see in a ZL1 1LE is an automatic transmission. Its manual ’box is identical to the ZL1’s six-speed except for a shorter sixth gear (0.68:1 versus 0.54:1).

Highs
Tons of grip, glorious engine sounds, costs far less than it could.

Lows
It’s a Camaro, so there’s essentially no back seat, limited visibility, and nowhere to put your phone.

All 1LE are 6 speed manual. You can get a 10 speed automatic in the regular ZL1.

Wow, I love those cars. Very high praise from the experts. Curious, how did you decide on this vs a Z06?. Just wondering as I have always wanted a vette, but these ZL1s are very impressive.

Nice ride. For comparison, what did you trade in (or what were you driving before)?
