The Camaro Z/28 is a badass track capable monster, and despite having a $75,000 MSRP, you can get a very nice one for $45,000 now! What is it like to own one of these? What are the pros and cons? Check out this video to see the ownership perspective!
I bought a 2015 Z/28 with only 700 miles for $45000. The car is awesome!!!
Doug Blanco how’s insurance?
It’s $1900 for the year.
@@dougb3740 that's great
Sickest Camaro EVER bro I'm so jealous
@BRUCE LEE if you can afford a car like this you are not worried about gas millage lol
Until my wife got hers I wasn’t a big Camaro fan, I always was in mustangs but I have to admit it’s a hell of a car.
best looking camaro of the 2000s imo
I think if I were to get a Camaro, the Z28 would be it. Looks so wicked in black.
Jet City It's the only 5th gen I like. All the rest are hideous looking to me.
Your Z28 is truly exquisite.
Or just get a 6th gen 1le and keep up with the z28 at the track lol
Jet City tbh every sports car/performance car looks wicked in black lol
Beautiful only thing this car was missing was led head lights
Love the car but when I made my purchase I went with the C6 Z06. I’ve owned several Camaro’s and love them but the corvette is just a step and I’ve always wanted. The black on black Z u bought is nasty though hope u enjoy it. Great video!!
6:54 THANK YOU!! Leave that 427 7.0L N/A, just do the mods you mentioned. You can get over 500 WHEEL HP & TQ out of your N/A LS7, & really Man that’s plenty
This doesn’t has magnetic ride, it has the multimatic shocks
That's what they're saying, that the Shelby rides a lot smoother without giving up any body roll because IT has mag ride.
Shut up nerd
@@coltonwatson4907 ok "mr meme"
This car has the SSVR technology shocks like the ones used by Formula One cars...the $$$ on this car was spent underneath...
Sorry, DSSV...
5k miles over the summer?? Very nice, putting it to good use. Most of the one's that I've seen for sale barely have that amount of miles on the odometer.
+jcdebbs I know! I'm glad Andrew is driving it :)
You're churnin out the fan favorites, good shit Eddie!
Bluetooth can be streamed. Set the input to AUX then click the center of the dial on right. I think it says menu/config.
This is where I get my daily dose of car.
In terms of the stiff suspension”.... Jay Leno said they got the suspension from an F11.5 million $ McLaren” remember I had Steeda suspension on my cobra” Women would say god this thing rides like shit” but then my buddies” would say” God I love the way this rides...
the Z28 is the ultimate Camaro and sure is a bargain. No doubt a future classic to be worth a lot of money
+SpyderRios I'm glad that you can appreciate it as a mustang owner! I hate the close minded people that refuse to acknowledge other great cars
This car doesn’t have magnetic ride, it has multimatic spool dampers. Lol
He was talking about the zo6
It has DSSV shocks, like the ones used on Formula One cars.
@EddieX you can use bluetooth to stream music from your phone, I have a 2010 Camaro SS and for some reason there are actually two different profiles for the camaro, there is one for making calls and another for music. its called GMusicConnect. you have to go searching through the menu to find it but its definitely there.
Sean That's actually only on the SS trim. Anything below and it doesn't have GMusicConnect
oh i didnt know that, but if the SS has it, it wouldn't make any sense not to put it on the Z/28 as well.
Sean Well keep in mind, this car didn't even come with one in the first place so when you add the option to add one, they probably just throw in the basic one
The Z28 is gorgeous and that particular body style of Camaro is the nicest one IMO.
I agree, I think this is the best looking Camaro that had ever been made.
I can’t imagine an 18 hour drive. I own a 2018 SS2 and my back is killing me after a 2 hour drive to LA. I love my camaro but those seats suck.
Lol yea can be a lil stiff
Great vid guys, thanks for sharing. I have a 2015 ZL1 with a Magnuson SC and it's beastly but I've always wondered about the Z/28. Cheers
I swear I'm going to get one of these some day very soon. But in red, black is nice but hard to keep it that way for long.
My guess is it’s badass
Theres a legend of one guy owning 2 camaros
LOL
like Ferraris and Porsches
GTR Wendy you're so fucking annoyn
GTR Wendy you are relentless.
GTR Wendy two ZL1's
Love my SS but I was looking hard for a Z28.... happy for yu brothA! 🙏🏾😎
Yurs is really nice!
I have a 2017 SS 1LE and if I'm honest, have to say this Z/28 looks better.... killer car at an amazing price!!!
devnull128 I do like the Z28 badass looking car but I have to say the 1lE looks just a little better in my opinion.
Shawn Jenkins - trade for the day brother... ha!
devnull128 I agree. The 5th gen camaro is the ONLY 5th gen I like as far as looks go. I do like the 6th gen ZL1 as far as looks. I pretty much hate the looks of any other 5th and 6th gen camaros
I have a 17 Black 1LE. This DOES look sooo good ugh. I WANT BOTH haha but seriously...i would have considered a black Z28. I just think that suspension is way too harsh on the road
5th gen looks like crap compared to 6th gen, this is just poor mans envy. 6th gen 1LE obliterates this antiquated garbage on any track
Eddie can you do a what is it like to own a RS3 sedan? There’s not many videos on it on UA-cam that are actually helpful so I think it would be a great idea.
Eddie can you do a what is it like to own on a 5th Gen zl1 camaro? Or a tuned 335i?
If I can find an owner I would love to!
EddieX I️ own a ‘13 ZL1 and live not far from you.
Own a tuned 335i not far from u either lol
KINGWOOZY PRODUCTIONS i got 1 too 14 Zl1 convertible
I had a tuned E92 335i manual and much prefer my 17 SS 1LE over it. Z28 is something else with that LS7 though
Wish I could friend one of these for 45k now
The local speed shop has one where a guy bought a '15 Z/28 for his wife to make into a drag car. The carbon ceramic brakes were removed in back and a straight axle was installed. So sad.
Car needs a 200 pwm package and a 50 dollar radio program fee to activate Bluetooth streaming. It is basically adding the gm convenience package to the car. Many of us 2010-20122 1ss owners know this pain.
Tnis is the only camaro ill buy reminds me of a nascar on how it looks
Hines Drive!!!
Love seeing a local video. I'll be taking my recently purchased '92 Camaro down Hines all summer long.
I got the 14 zl1 convertible with 6900 miles for a good price . The z28 is jus raw tho
I'm more impressed you found a Z/28 for $45k
Always love your videos but the volume is so quiet even when I️ turn it up all the way on my iPhone.
Beast of a car ..the looks amazing!
Can't find em for $45k now.
My 2015 ss can stream bluetooth, i think its because that z28 has a more base level radio
Hate that these have engine problems though. I like cars stock and I couldn’t feel safe having this car stock. And these are 55-70k now 😂
The last good n/a camaro imo before they ruined it with the smaller size platform.
He can't stream music because he doesn't have MyLink. It's an option. If he must have bluetooth streaming, it's an easy swap to the other Chevy touchscreen MyLink. My 2LT has it.
Mine doesn't have touchscreen and I still have bluetooth?
So are you able to switch to the touch screen on the z28?
that cars the shit.Awsome car.
45k for this car in todays market is such a bargain….
Had a black 81. Need a 427 Z now. Ty
HANDS DOWN " THE BADDEST CAMARO EVER " TO ROLL THE EARTH
Im a camaro fan curious u thought then when the 5th gen was introduced the highend then us theZL1 hes the predecessor of theZ28 In tge past gen Camaros the Z28 is then the highend variant 1969 then in tge 3rd gen AZ28 variant they called IROC-Z Actually im a Camaro collector diecast toys hotwheels all generations among the Z a1969 jb hersheys brown 1970 a 1985 IROC-Z 5th 6th gen 2012 and 2017 ZL1 Lastly a tooned 1969Z28 Godspeed Eddie shre you inspire all Camaro fans not inly me as well the rest😇
So my 2010 2SS has this radio and I can stream audio from my phone.
You absolutely can steam Bluetooth on there. There's a second gm connect you have to setup for the music stream. I owned one and thought the same thing however I found the guide online I'll see if I can link you. It's super non-intuitive
ua-cam.com/video/-fmeQi33Ptk/v-deo.html
I hope you see this or someone showed you. I thought the same exact thing. Miss my ls3.
If it can take an AUX cable I would deal with that over bluetooth.
Please inform your miss informed friend that the z/28 doesn’t have magnetic ride control lmao It has multimatic dssv
You picked the right car! C6zo6 has leafsprings still. Smh.
Fyi yes u can stream music thru bluetooth
Amazing car, amazing sound 👍
I regret passing up on one
Damn NICE Camaro , wish I could find one that nice!
Correct.
Correct.
Awesome vid as usual btw
Must be nice to own a $45k Camaro
Elvis Car Reviews better than an ecoboost with racing stripes ahahahahahaha 😂😂😂😂
Now 60k private seller
Good video Eddie baby.
Lonestar - kevin spacey
I just got a 2019 2ss 6 speed
Wow it lost its value that bad it was like 70 k new right? Now you can get one for 40k
Cant now
ZL1 1LE is no scrub....it can keep up neck in neck with rhis beastly Z28.....as bad ass as the ZL1 1LE is, there is something about the Z28 that wins me over
Dan Ordel keep up?
@@kervinmorales6883 Z28 would have to keep up lol. Z28 is badass it'll still rip most 2019 cars. Car might look meaner than the new ZL1 1LE.... rear spoiler with wicker is awesome.
The price is a lot better than $75000!!😮😮😮😮😮
In 2017, when this video was made, you could get a used F80 M3 with carbon ceramics, for under $50k. Just saying
Not as fun as much as I love bmws they are to digital compared to the z28
This car would smoke an F80 M3 regularly.
Nice cars but more of a weekend car. Too rough of a ride to be daily.
(2:44) As the guy almost drives off the side of the road.
I have the same radio and I Bluetooth music to it
Still the best looking Camaro
Id rather a v6 accord coupe
Eddie you never got back to me about that AMG GTR shirt, I still want one if the price isn't too high
+Lomo sorry! Haven't had a chance to respond. Website is Revattire.com, use code: EDDIEX for free shipping!
yeah replacing the brake rotors and pads is like $10,000 USD... nah thanks
Lol nowhere near that price. the rotors are harder to find now and have actually gone up in price since the c6 ZR1 ended production but are still found in the 1000-1100 ea range. I use these same rotors on my GTR. on top of the fact for the avg joe they will last the life of the vehicle.
Holy 💩 45k!!??
😭
Why store it for winter? Just curious
Great video.
what's a good website to shop for a used Camaro Z/28?
SS or Z28 for a regular driver
I want one! WANT!!
You drive a z28 and you don't even static x?
Is this car 2021 price tag 66k with 7 k miles just curious like have a/28 but not new car price one looking at 2014
Eddie have you ever been to somerset mall?
+Maruf2021 yes, many times
EddieX my house isn’t that far from it XD I like to chill in the Apple store and Hagan Doz The ice cream store lol
Whats the difference between ZL1 and Z28?
Abraham Romero different engines, suspension,brakes and on the z/28 is NA when the zl1 is supercharged. There are many of things but these are the main ones
That is if you are comparing the same year (2015) the new zl1 is a completely different beast
@@ACGc1063 and 300+ pounds
3:21 PRAISE FOR IMPACT Lol
Another downfall is not having a USB port.
My dream car is the *Lamborghini Huracan* 😎 💵
+Maruf2021 work on getting that dream! It's a cool car
EddieX thanks! I’ll do my best
Maruf2021 I know, me too! And the best part if it’s all wheel I would drive it in the snow like you tuber Stradman. But I have a boxster and it sits there today looking sad. It’s been snowing in Montana all day so I was stuck driving my wrangler. 😞
Koenigsegg
Do the LS7s on the Z28s have the same valve issues that C6 Z06 cars have?
Dimitri Khomyak that issue was fixed after 07 I wanna say
After 2007? Definitely not.
Dimitri Khomyak it was remedied after 07 but yes the issue still exists
Dimitri Khomyak yes they do have the same valve problem. Easy fix. Just spend the $$$ to get diff valve setup and problem solved
Only when it’s modified does it become an issue I heard
45k?
Battleship gray...with cherry red accents??? 🤔🤔🤔
for that price they could
had added noise dampening
if it's going to be an American
muscle iconic sport car ,
the car l👀ks awesome But
the Noise inside must be
Control if one like to hear the
rumbling of loud V8 engine they
could add it to there audio speaker
add it on and crank it UP

👔 👍
Correct
Nice car !!!
Damn my 1980 Z28 Camaro only cost me 5 k lol
We to see some of that acceleration man! I was dissapointed..
camaros destroy them scats
CORRECT!!
Car looks beast. Still prefer my 2018 1le though.
Did he have the valve guides replaced or at least inspected?
Was inspected. Also very low mileage car when purchased
Whats wrong with valve guides ?
The valve guides were an issue on the early C6 Zo6's of 2006, 2007...been long fixed by the time the Z28 came out so hammer away!
correct!... 19 times
Gt350R has 315's all around.
Was it out 14-15?
@@WattsUpDev Well I think It'll still give the regular GT350 a run for its money.
Whats the song at the begining Eddie ?
It's called "Tied Up" from the UA-cam Audio Library!
Eddie ur the man love ur videos!
Swhaeeettt! Total bad ass
Vehicle virgin's has better review
