Can a Car Be Truly EVIL? | Carfection

- The Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is banned from most of Europe and some parts of the US. Is this car really that evil?
With a supercharged V8, the ZL1 is definitely Chevrolet's bitchin' Camaro. Packed with the best of everything Chevy throws at its Camaro line, the ZL1 is a take-no-prisoners performance coupe with one badass attitude. But this car has been tuned and packs even more of a punch

The slomo line lock burn out to the piano was absolutely beautiful
Masterpiece!
Holy moly the intro though 😲😃. This pretty much sums up this monster of a muscle car ;)
The outro was one of the best automotive clips I've ever seen, just hypnotizing
That closing shot of the burnout was breathtaking! Thank you :)
From a strictly performance vs. cost perspective, nothing can compete with the ZL1.
I've been daily driving my '18 Z since new and honestly it never gets old... I literally miss it when I go on trips.
Chevrolet has only made about 15,000 6th generation ZL1s in total. By comparison, dodge produced nearly that many Hellcats in 2016 alone.
I predict these will become highly collectable in the future. I will never sell mine.
I have '23 in Sharkskin Metallic with the 6 MT on order. I can't wait to join the club. Such a special car.
As good as the Mustang looks, (the real Mustang, not the SUV EV lump), I think the Camaro looks even better!
No the ZL-1 is awesome the camaro it's self is franchise killer levels of ugliness
Chevy guy
Speechless at the level of production going on in here... Everything about this video is top notch! WOW.
Brilliantly done 👏🏽
Had so much fun working on this 🎙As Voodoo chants are not something I do every day 👿
The art direction for the intro. Just poetic! Great review & technical detail!
Because I don't see my comment anymore, I'll just repeat it: this is a glorious piece of work! Amazing editing, great driving and very entertaining.
Congrats on Carfection. Carfection is much more than the great Catchpole.
Great film, and I think Jorge is a great and witty presenter. The sneeze drift was a fun gag
THIS is the best intro EVER!!!
These video's are on another level production wise and the car's well this one speaks for itself 😎🖒👊✌
Where did you flunk English?
@@larrysmith6797 too much time on your hands.
I LOVED the artistic intro of thís review! Please pleas continue, another new level, guys!
Ha ha, "You Americans really know how to do fun!"
It was like you were talking to me and I didn't even make the thing, lol. I now must hop in my Corvette and get a Chipotle burrito after watching this. I need some V8 and carbs! Merica!
Special thanks to the owner!🤘
Special apologies to Castle Combe Racing Circuit... 👀
PS: I have found out since we shot this, that you CAN indeed analyse the data from the DPR system with the Cosworth software.
I blame Chevrolet for only mentioning it in the tiniest and last paragraph on the owners manual. Awesome either way!
Great review Jorge, I think you’ve got the goods; witty without being obnoxious
@@nathanchildress5596 Thank you so much for the kind words!✌️
It looks mean at the end when it's inhaling it's own tyre smoke 💀
Great closing shots of the smoke rolling into the grill.
What a sound. Loved the video and the sound design even more. Nice job guys
Now THATS a Frickin’ intro!!!! 😂
I know it's for the best but the end of the internal combustion will be a sad day indeed.
Your an excellent reviewer and that intro was sublime!
By far the best intro I've seen by Carfection. Great editing 💪🏻🔥
I was curious about that particular Camaro and MAN, what a car this is. Just as the video about it - great job from you guys at Carfection 🤩
Great review!
Just a quick note- you're a bit off on the Performance Data Recorder. You do indeed pull data, overlay laps against your instructor/reference, etc all thru the Cosworth Toolbox that's a part of the PDR license. Just pull the SD card and upload to your computer and see exactly where you're inconsistent in every corner!
You are totally right. I mentioned it on my comment above but I'll copy it here:

Weird seeing Tom Allan without his suit on telling jokes.
Incredible video!
My dads 2010 Vauxhall Zafira was evil
Broke down a lot and refused to run for the final time
A rare compliment from accross the pond! Thanks, we do like to have fun with our cars.
Another awesome review. ZL1 1LE is up there on my dream cars list.
Now that, is what I call a car! I would have to have the evil red headlamps, too. 😈🔥🤘🏼🇺🇸
That thing certainly has "Evil" down pat! But... don't get caught with red lights facing forward in the States if you're not driving a cop car. They get real "pissy" about civilians with those lights and they love to write tickets!!
Holy fuck, what an intro! 😲👌
wish you would post just the intro as a seperate video. :) I love my 2017 ZL1. Mine is a convertible and mosaic black. Its so fun. :) Nice job on the video!
The best outro ever!
Video audio doesn’t do this car justice.
Having just heard it in person it was mind blowing
Wow that intro was rather spicy.
I have heartburn
We do know how to do fun! Although we can’t seem to do much else these days. Cool video, thank you.
That thumbnail is sick🔥
damn that intro had black metal vibes 🤘
[LOUD NOISES]
Bloody hell. ☕
Have a 2022 Zl1 10 speed automatic and i love it .It is my second one had a 2020 before.
4:35 mmmmmm!!! headphones indeed 🥵
edit: thank you for the headphone recommendation, the engine symphony with the classical music outro?! chef's kiss
Cars like this make hot hatches kind of nonexistent in America
You think the ZL1 is awesome? Wait till you try the last Gen Viper ACR. I do truly thank you for complementing and enjoying our cars. For the longest time they've been called rubbish and not worthy, so to see not just you but other Europeans call cars like this more than decent I truly appreciate. Take care.
In their defense: American cars *have* been quite trash at points in the last couple of decades. The last decade, though, has seen a LOT of improvements.
@@MishraArtificer yes I know they have been. I'm appreciating how this man respects how much American cars have changed when it comes to performance.
I have an 18 1LE a highly modified Elise and an Ariel Atom. I take the 1LE out for rallies and some track work, and I never really miss the lighter cars. It's the best 4 seat car on the planet I think
What a cool garage 👍🏼
These cars are amazing out of the box. The power, manual transmission feeling, the looks, and surprisingly the interior is all great. I'd opt in for the 1LE variant for a more hardcore, turnkey race car experience. Chevy knocked it out of the park with this beast
@Miata Master its really not that bad. There are additional small changes to the 1le package that make the steering and braking slightly sharper and less squishy on initial turn in/pedal application. Changing from the stock goodyear 3r to something like a ps4 transformed the car on the street. The magride would be too squishy for me
Yes drove both went with the zl1 and so glad I did. 1le is brutal rough
@Miata Master I drove a 1le. The suspension was indeed harsh but certainly not unliveable
Makes me proud to live in America! ZL1 and the GT500 are top notch sports pony cars with super car performance. The Shelby GT500 is my dream car tho.
As an owner of a ZL1 1LE, they are quite fun and much more capable than I think people give them credit for.
The multimatic suspension is on another level, but I bet it rides like crap. Awesome car tho.
@@UA-camr-jz5nd it actually rides great. I had an SS 1LE prior and a C7 Z06. This rides a little firmer but, nowhere near as crashy as some aftermarket coilover systems. I drove this car 500 miles in one shot and it felt perfectly fine.
I think some people are just very sensitive to the suspension and some aren’t. Hell, my back isn’t the greatest but, this suspension doesn’t bother me at all.
@@Omega_TTRS Interesting, thanks for the reply.
@@UA-camr-jz5nd
I swapped my tires out to Michelin cup 2 tires and the ride is perfect . I’ll keep the Goodyears for serious track day !
They will hold 1000hp easy i know forsure lol about to add a little more to mine
You really enjoy damaging the like button huh
Your work is phenomenal. We appreciate. Please make a video of the new gt black series
Absolutely awesome, I'm sure the owner of this had vxr8 with 700bhp, as I had ride in it, if it is the same bloke he top man
Amazing production
The car isn't my flavour but, great film.
U gotta do this with a black challenger hellcat redeye, plus this, this was epic.
I test drowve a manual zle recently the previous owner managed 24.3 mpg over 50 miles. Crazy restraint needed for that.
Put it in snow/ice mode it really helps
But yeah I don't 😆
pure Epic!!!
The Deny Villneuve Dune-like Saudukar montage in the beginning was clever.
Nice one!
Damn man that is some high praise right there!
After spending hours and hours editing this, I thank you!
autobox, wheel rub, dirvers seat, seemingly not screwed down, acres of plastic, autobox erratic, suspension bounce, noise & tyre smoke. GT-R Nismo 7:06..... Yup merican.
Totally agree... But I guess it works for the intended market
Read into that what you will...
yep...or a Porsche GT car in under 7 mins...and doubles it's value when you drive it out of the dealership.
Love this beautiful car....have to have this over a hellcat any day 😍
I carry passengers often enough that I'd still go for the Charger Hellcat...but even I admit this one's cool.
How many fuel stops to the mile does it do? 😂
I own one and on a track session I got 3mpg
"...yes."
Omg that thing is a beast
That ending is glorious.
Yeah, my favourite Muscle car! 😎👌
I work for the USAF with a lot of pilots. Driving on base is almost like being at a car show. Jags, Porsches, Corvettes (both C7 and C8), Mustangs, Mopar Hemi cars, Subarus, Supras, Alpha Romeos, the full set of modern sports cars sold in America. Our pilots love to fly close to the ground too. The parking lot where I work has a few beauties. And when the pilot with the ZL1 purrs in, everyone stops, looks, and listens.
I drove a SS ragtop a while back. And for me, that's about all I'd ever need. Not having been in a GM product since the 90's, I was blown away by the build quality. And, they've surely tapped into the fun-factor. I felt like Mad Max on vacation in that SS.
So much spit coming out, cannot unsee
Bonkers! Utterly bonkers!
you guys should be on tv
60 grand? contacting the chevy dealer right now
so why is this banned again?
Fun video. I’m from the US and own this same car. As far as why the 1LE is faster, it’s because of the suspension and aero. It’s not too hard to overdrive the stock suspension on a track. I’ve done laps at Road America so know this first hand. 👍
I got the most traffic tickets with my 1982 Camaro than any car that I have ever owned. I was in my late 20s. This vehicle just flat out runs like it is possessed.
GM will be foolish to discontinue this car after 2023. No more orders taken by GM for the 2023 ZL1 1LE. GM not talking about discontinuing it so far. The price has also gone crazy lately if you can find one.
Thought I was watching Dune 2 for a second! Outstanding intro.
Holy crap I might have to put that on my tombstone 😄
Thank you so much for the high praise.
@@jorgecaladoracing thanks for the awesome content!
What a fuck!ng intro 👍
Chevy V8 Small block 😍
After waiting 9mo, picked mine this week. Convertible and manual. LOVE IT SO MUCH!
I have one. And I love it. An absolute beast.
Ill wait till the EV version comes out 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don't think you'll hear muscle car fans complaining about boxy looks: quite the opposite, in fact! Personally, I think this is just a tad too European. Give me a Demon any day.
If Darth Vader drove a car.......
It's funny because I don't even look twice when I see one. My boss at my old job had one but it was auto so I wasn't too interested in driving it since I've experienced the same drivetrain in the Z06. Awesome car in the stick but maybe more time will make them special to see in the US.
Europes skyline
Thank goodness the Americans stepped their game up this much these past 10 years.
-ex BMW fan
Same engine as the Z06 1LE for about half, or a third of the price.
What a deal.
Q: If it goes electric, will the exhaust still have the growling sound. That maybe the part I love the most besides the speed, and the handling, which is way more refined than the Red Eye Wide Body, or the GT Cobra.
The guys who think this Camaro is a muscle car🤦🏻
I would much rather have one of these with the 10speed auto than a Hellcat Redeye. If the new supercharger on the new Escalade V is available from GMPP and is a bolt on upgrade since it's a 2.7L versus the LT4 1.7L it could be cheap upgrade that would make 1kwhp extremely easy. Just a ported SC, pulley swap, heat exchanger, fueling upgrades, exhaust, cam and valve train.
Americans know how to do fun 🥳
I own one, best car I’ve had and never plan on selling because there’s no other like it and there never will be. Always fun to embarras supercars on trackdays also, they never expect it to be so fast on track.
ZL1s have been a fixture at trackdays ever since their launch in the US, a lot of instructors drive them I've noticed, because they're not just fast and competent for road course work, they're also incredibly robust for extended lapping right out of the box. A bit of a trans am racer for the road these things. And dangit well done, I really don't like burnouts but the one at the close of this video was pretty epic.
2022 Mustang GT next pls 🍊
CAM ARROW!!!
Here in north Italy we have an importer called Cavauto specialized in American cars since the early 80s. Back in October 2021 they had for a very brief period a black ZL1 with 1LE package on display. Apparently was the only ZL1 that landed in Italy and now it's with it's owner, I believe from the Milan area. Very curious.
just for the curious, in Europe is apparently "banned" cause of the front splitter (think AMG GT Black Series) and especially the canards. One method I assume importers can register these cars, is to simply swap the front bumper for a regular Z1L (non 1LE) at inspection. Then swap it again. But this is just my speculation.
O. M. G 😎😁😆😱
That is a Super car for$65 k .Period ........
but aMeRiCan CaRs DoN't TuRn🤓
The car that Darth Vader would drive!
Pass the tissues.....
The ZL1 1LE does not have Magnaride. It has Dynamic Suspension Spool Valve Dampers
Please feature some AC Cobra's new and old
Jesus Christ, learn how to use apostrophes.

Wow! What an intro. Hang on? I'll call an exorcist!
5:38 You don't drive the monster. The monster drives you.
reg plate is ILLEGAL
Beat one of these in my 400000 km SC400 auto the other day, I had it in the corners and hills, it had me off the line because of my old auto, but everything else it got smoked...
🤣🤣🤣
then you woke up yeah? LOL
Is this reviewer Scottish or Sth African?
I don't care. I just don't want to see him in another Carfection video.
