Check out Mike’s channel here: youtube.com/@JustCarPeopleThings
@TheTopher. We really do
apologise. We need a best deal!
you should try test driving a manual hellcat challenger
I like this guy. Well spoken, appears modest, I think he’d make a great addition to the channel if he were interested
Too bad he has a day job!
Was going to comment the same thing!
@@TheTopher I could be convinced...
Funky watch too. He's basically there!
Completely agree
The SS 1LE is seriously one of the top bang-for-your buck performance cars on sale.
Easily. The chassis on these is amazing.
@@augustortiz I have a 19 2ss 1le, its amazing on the road with the correct tire.
Just wish I could see out of the damn thing
@@davidr6865 lol so accurate.
@@davidr6865 The rear view camera really helps with that issue. One of the best parts of the 2SS over the 1SS imo.
I really like the way the owner described his car. He sounded like an actual reviewer, instead of just going "Thing's great, 10/10". With that being said, though, I feel like a lot of usual Topher review items are missing from these POV owner videos.
Yeah he sounded like a chevy salesman trying to sell the car to Topher
@@maximus9401 I'm sold! lol
This guy knows his car. Obviously that's not a requirement to own and enjoy one, but it was great listening to him speak. I'd love to see more ownership POV's, it's great to hear the perspective of owners and very relatable!
The one aspect I like about the Camaro is that it seemed to prioritize driving dynamics over the Mustang and especially the Challenger, hopefully the new S650 takes that torch and runs with it since it’s literally in a league of its own now
s650 is just a body kit on the S550 so don't hold your breath.
The S650 is a pale imitation of the S550. Comparing the 6G Camaro is offensive.
@@eurly93it’s probably a Ford’s employee YT account.
@@eurly93Considering that Ford said they revised the steering rack to be quicker (and hopefully more feelsome) and did some other tunes to the chassis on the S650 and whatnot, I wouldn’t just call it a “mere body kit”. At least that’s what I hope and believe, hearing that more was done under the skin.
@@ClickbaitMotorsportsWell, I’d be the one to say that for the S550, it was quite a hard benchmark to follow up with and outdo it, at least styling wise.
It’s a damn shame they are discontinuing this car. The SS 1LE will be a classic.
They haven't updated a single thing in 7 years and made it look worse. I sold mine since the 8 speed trans is trash
@@BartlettRacing66only the front and rear end along with the infotainment n the 10 speed. But the bones are pretty much the same
I'm really considering buying one.. what would that do to the cost of maintenance later on. I assume raise it or do they stock enough parts for cars after they've been discontinued for it to not matter too much?
Nevermind. After sitting in one, I'm no longer considering it. The visibility is unbelievably bad.. the rear right blind spot is *SO* bad, I wouldn't even safely be able to change lanes in it. Unfortunate because I had my heart set on one.. they're great cars for the money.
@@hhaste Had absolutely no problem with visibility, especially if you get blind spot monitoring
Mike's point at the end about buying a $50k hot hatch with a possible $5k to $10k markup vs buying a $50k V8 manual RWD sports car is spot-on and the reason why I bought the exact same spec Camaro as him.
You can't find a better performance bargain.
Depends on what you need a camaro would never work for what I need but a type s would
Lol Camaro? Father bought me an Aston Martin LOL!
@@defyyourlogic487camaro would be faster 🤷♂️
@@defyyourlogic487must be nice to be a privileged boy that needs daddy's money ey
The magic of the Alpha chassis...say no more. Enthusiasts engineered the 1LE!
After owning so many cars like E60 M5, s2000, G35, BMW GT 335iM to name a few this is the best car I have ever owned.
Got an insane deal on a 2017 SS 1LE in February with 23k miles from an older gentleman. Couldn't be happier its such a fun car to drive, handles like its on rails and sounds amazing. Certainly gets a lot of looks and compliments, in person it looks wayyyy more agressive than a normal Camaro.
How do you deal with that visibility? I had my mind set on one, until I sat in a ZL1 today. They're impossible to see out of.. The rear right blind spot is so bad, I wouldn't be able to safely change lanes in it..
@@hhaste it’s really not that bad if you give it some time, in my opinion most of the people who think that have never really driven one or they didn’t adjust everything properly. If you take the time to get the seat and mirrors right it’s pretty manageable. Rear right is probably the biggest I would agree but with my mirrors I’ve never had trouble ensuring the lane is clear just requires more head moving to be sure than other cars lol. When I bought mine it was the first time I’d ever been in one and after the 1hr 1/2 drive home I was already pretty comfortable with the visibility, I actually quite enjoy how narrow the front window is, feels like your in a cockpit lol.
@@HyperBlueMetallic1LE where’d you find it
I've owned a 5th gen and 2 6th gens. You're really over exaggerating the visibilty. I've never stressed making a lane change. I think it actually makes you a more attentive driver. You tend to be more aware of your surroundings. Honestly, the only time visibilty is an issue for me is in parking lots. Curbs and parking stones can sometimes be hard to see. @@hhaste
This ss 1le is the reason why I got my uncle to buy it. Best value track car straight form the factory. Only bad thing is visibility otherwise it's an amazing car.
And that’s a manageable trade if you ask me.
After sitting in one today, I completely agree. The visibility is *SO* bad, I'm actually no longer considering one. unfortunate because it's such a good car for the money.. but it's impossible to see out of. I wouldn't be able to safely drive it on the road.. you can't change lanes without potentially slamming in to someone in the right lane, it's that bad.
@@hhasteBeen driving one for 2 years near daily and never had an issue. You'd think if it was so dangerous the insurance cost would reflect that, but it's cheaper to insure than the beater 2005 base Impreza I had before it.
@@hhasteEven with the rear camera mirror and outside mirrors with blindspot warning??🤔
The 2SS 1LE is the one for me. It does so many things well. It’d rather have this than the ZL1. Getting into competition mode is a huge pain. I blame the cheap buttons
haha it is always a little bit of luck getting into competition mode...agreed man - this is the ticket!
No reason, to go to comp mode, I just hold the button and turn off traction and esc/stability control both.. The car has so much grip, you really need to try to break the rear loose.. I have owned 6 mustangs, but after test driving a 1LE, there was no way I was buying an s550.. I love it..
Well I think this video pushed me over the edge. I gotta go order one
Better hurry. 2024 orders are open and it's the last year/
Good luck! Limited production run.
Just got my 23’ 2SS over 1500 mi (built it from the factory) and it sounds amazing above 4K RPMs. The interior lighting, ventilated seats, HUD, and camera mirror make it worth the small windshield. I’m so used to it that I feel like I’m in a greenhouse now when I drive my 99’ 4Runner.
i have a 23 2ss also, right at 1700 miles, took delivery in december 22' but holy shit the windshield is SO small lol. kinda wish it was a little faster tbh.
Dang lol I got my 23’ 1 ss in April with 8 miles off the lot now it has 5,679 miles in july. By the looks of it I’m driving it more than most people lol
@@anthonysuchil604 you definitely are, but mine isn't my daily driver. I have another vehicle. Mostly just drive my ss on the weekends and some evenings for a cruise or something
I had an 19 1SS 1LE, amazing car. Nearly everything is perfect. Visibility sucks, you get used to it, but it makes commuting tricky sometimes and it can spoil driving on tight roads. You just have to guess where the car edges are. It’s a pretty wide car and the wheels poke out so it’s easy to curb them in weird angle drive thrus and what not.
Electronic parking brake was annoying. It works but there’s a delay for it to set. Manual handbrake would be so much nicer.
Otherwise, about the best car I’ve driven. Chassis is incredible, brakes are insanely powerful, seats are so comfortable and supportive, they don’t recline much on the 1SS either. Shifter is the best I’ve used. Such good feel and it just feels durable and like you can abuse it, flatfoot shifting is so addicting. Steering is great, the heaviest weight is too heavy, but the individual drive mode settings solve that. It rides great for what it is….sounds great….GM really nailed it overall.
I got rid of the 1LE because I couldn’t stop hauling ass in it. It’s so fast for the street and the limits are super high. 100mph is nothing in it. Power is just so tempting and after a while the thrill of speed is gone
I have a 2020 recaro/bbs package Miata now. The Miata is more fun at reasonable speeds and just puttering around. You can take it to the edge without doing 120mph lol
I still miss the Camaro a lot…the exhaust note was intoxicating and it was such a great drivers car….but the Miata keeps me out of handcuffs lol
This made me laugh I feel u brother I’m always ripping it in my 1le
@@donaldjames4340 ha ha yeah it’s impossible not to when a car sounds and feels that good. 😂
I definitely miss it sometimes. Nothing is like a V8. So comfortable to cruise around in, the recaros in the 1LE are fantastic. Best seats I’ve had by far
Recaros in the Miata are eh, bit too snug in the thighs and I’m slim. Hot too, don’t breathe well. Better than the regular seats though. Running costs are a hell of a lot more tolerable. Less than 5qts of oil, tiny tires, 33mpg mixed driving easily.
And it’s nice to be able to row gears with the top down and not worry about protecting the chocolate starfish in county 😂😂
The 1LE is easily the best bang for the buck performance car out there, no question. Even the non 1LE standard SS model is a very good driving car that handles like it's on rails, both share the Tremec 6spd which is phenominal.
I can get 27-28mph cruising at 65mph. I love my 2SS. One thing I did to dress up the interior was add carbon fiber trim pieces. Now, it looks great.
Also, visibility isn't bad after a week or so of driving it. If you have the rear camera mirror, it basically eliminates the rear blind spots anyway. I love mine- 1500 miles in.
Congrats! Did you wait the full 1500 miles before revving over 4000 RPM/80 MPH. That's the hardest part 😎
@@cardo1111 I'm going to change the oil in the next few days before revving it out. Yup, I was a good boy and didn't push it.
I’m not convinced that babying these is the way to break them in. Heat cycling is the name of the game. I would never say to thrash it to the redline every shift brand new from dealer, but just drive it. If rpms go to 5k for a moment, so be it.
@@donrichter3523 too late now. I'm no engineer, so I just follow the manual.
You can cruise at 1800 to 2000 rpm in 6th (80 to 85 mph)and get almost 28 mpg. Drove from my home to south ga and back (400 mi) on a single tank.
I’m so happy with mine I can’t explain it’s just such a great car to drive and live with
I have a 2022 2SS 1LE, with a manual, and love it. It's just a weekend car for me, but I recently drove it out to Utah (from my home in Pennsylvania), and it was super comfortable. And once I got out to the nice roads in Colorado and Utah, it handled the twisty mountain roads with aplomb. And like the owner here, I get compliments on it all the time. Really a shame that GM is killing off the platform, and isn't going ahead with another generation.
I have some run flat Goodyear tires on my 2020 Camaro. Works like a charm I lost all tire pressure down to zero on my passenger front tire due to a nail and was abt 40 mins from home and I drove all the way at abt 35mph and next morning got it patched. HIGHLY RECOMMEND all Camaro owners to invest in some run flats to avoid being stranded with a flat. GREAT VIDEO!!
Thanks @TheTopher for coming to check out the car, we'll do a garage walk around and hang out again soon!
When is the first track day? Make sure to film! You'll be blown away by the limits on track.
@mikecompagnoni Ram Mount next to the infotainment screen. Please give more info like part number.
And its got a oil cooler, trans cooler, and a cooler for the rear axle, which by the way is the Corvettes electronic rear differential.
Absolutely love mine.
Just bought a 19 SS 1LE and love it so far. Been on the fence about driving it in the winter but this video convinced me to do it as long as i get proper snow tires.
This is the best car GM makes. I've driven the C8, this is so much more enjoyable.
Mike seems like a good guy, love his commentary and his pacing of the comments that he makes!
I also have a 1le and I Love It! The only modification I did was upgraded sway bars and strut tower brace
Insane Camaro !! ❤❤
i’ve been waiting for this video for years and here it is 😩
I personally own a 2SS and hearing this guy talk about his makes me smile knowing how well he described it! I’m in love with my 2SS and it is a great daily driver!
Can you adjust the steering, exhaust and transmission in each driving mode in the 2SS or is that only a feature of the 1LE package?
Shiiiii can never go wrong with a Camaro 🇺🇲🍻😎
Don't have a 1LE but do have an '22 LT1 6 speed and it's hella fun to drive. I'm sure the 1LE just takes it to another level.
Secretly hating yourself for buying a brz when this thing exist.
Love to see another Camaro on the channel!! Love my ZL1, these cars are totally daily-able and drive great when pushing it. Thinking of adding a G80 M3CX to the garage to pair with the Z but worried it’s not going to be nearly as good!!
bro try a blackwing ct4v first, I had a c7 before and this thing is just amazing
Disagree on them being daily drivable.. the rear passenger blind spot is so bad, you can't even safely change lanes without potentially slamming in to a car.
This car is so awesome. I’ve been “forced” to daily mine lately because my usual daily is in the shop. I get done with work around 6-7 and haven’t been getting home until 10 pm because I’m out having so much fun with the car.
Have a 23 1ss riverside blue,npp,recaros, red calipers, mag ride and pf course 6 speed,had it almost a month,just over 200 miles now and freaking love the car.
2 problems with this car:
1 - you can't drive it slow. I just had court yesterday and almost lost my license.
2 - Stealth mode still pops and bangs and cold start isn't stealthy
That is true, it’s not an easy car to drive at regular speeds!
Isn't that the truth.. I am 43 years old with a 22 SS 1le manual, and boy it makes me drive like a 17yr old dickhead.. lol
I've had my 2017 2SS for almost 3 years now. I was going to get a Manual but the Automatic 0-60 was quicker and the automatic has paddle shifters so you can still shift it yourself if you want just without a clutch. I love mine so much. The crackling pop of the exhaust when in sport mode still 3 years later puts a huge smile on my face. Mine is also riverside Blue Metalic and I got the big boi ZL1 spoiler splitter, and Side skirts ALL Gloss Black. Canards are the next thing I'm a put on just to make the front even more aggressive not that it Stock (NO MODS) already makes it look so mean and aggressive looking but I just wanna go all in pretty much. It's just only W'S for this current gen Camaro. I'd never trade it in. Best purchase I ever made
Sure.. Keep dreaming of actually owning an SS 1LE.. Obviously you are lying since the first year they even offered an automatic in the 1LE was 2021.. They were all manual until then.. Nice try though.. Have fun driving it in your video games kid..
@@Clutch_Kick187 He never said ILE, only 2SS.
Awesome man
Alpha platform is criminally underatted
What a great sounding car! And you friend did a great job describing his ownership experience. I honestly feel like he could be your brother or cousin or something 😂
thankns for this vid !!! camaro was off my radar, but it may have jumped to the top of the list, this checks many if not all boxes, going to miss it once its all gone
My 1LE order was built two weeks ago, just waiting for delivery day now, can’t wait.
How long did it take from the time you ordered?
@@Porsche53324 I ordered on April 1st. It got built around June 15, and now I’m just waiting for delivery. I’ve seen some people get theirs faster and some who have been waiting for months. The most important thing is going to a dealership who actually has an allocation for the vehicle.
Yeeaaah, Gen 6 Camaros are my JAM. Sadly just traded in my 10 speed LT1. That bad boy regularly exceeded 30 MPG's on the highway. The highest I hit was a tick under 37. These cars are insanely good, I need to get back into one ASAP.
What did you trade it for?
I remember when Topher called the SS a momentum car, which is a bit of a stretch lol.
Ive owned a 16' SS and 19' ZLE.
Really no complaints from a performance aspect, as prob the best overall bang for the buck out there. Sounds great too!
My biggest issue was the poor visibility and "claustrophobic" feeling interior that felt like sitting in a bathtub, which grew tiresome and annoying as a daily for me...
These are sooooo much fun!
Based on your recommendation, as well as Thomas from Throttle House, I ordered one of these. It took a long time to get, but other than making it a little smaller and lighter it's the perfect car for me to play with. So I guess you and Thomas can split the commission.
I'm glad you got to drive a newer one! I just got my 2023 1SS 1LE 2 months ago and have been loving it. A TON of car for 49k. You definitely need to film a track day with it and try the no lift shift function, such a blast. Hope everyone who is on the fence about these cars jumps on one while you can still get one! You won't regret it!
How do you deal with that visibility? I had my mind set on one, until I sat in a ZL1 today. They're impossible to see out of.. The rear right blind spot is so bad, I wouldn't be able to safely change lanes in it.. it's so bad, I don't think I'm even considering one, anymore.
I just sold my C7 for GT PP1 since I was having to drive a LOT more just around town. I so desperately wished I didn't hate the way Camaros looked, because the SS 1LE is in a class of its own as far as driving experience compared to Mustang and Challenger. The SS leans sports car, the mustang rides the line between muscle and sport, and the challenger is full muscle car.
If I didn't just totally hate the exterior styling I would buy one in an instant. They are so damn great to drive. The alpha platform is just great.
Looks way better than the mustang looks better than the stingray too
I have a 22 SS 1LE M6 and I bought it knowing these types of cars are not going to be built after 2024 probably. I could not be happier with the purchase, such a fun car to drive!
Mike is a natural at this, wouldn’t mind seeing him be a regular on the channel 😄 too bad these cars are dying off 😔 itl be a classic someday.
Check out the owner Mike’s new instagram here: instagram.com/justcarpeoplethings?igshid=Y2IzZGU1MTFhOQ==
What a great car…pinnacle pony car for sure. V8. 6-speed. MRC. Best chassis in class. Future classic for sure.
Amazing car, I have a 2022 2SS 1LE, wouldnt change it for anything!
Got my v6 1LE. Don't regret it one bit. Aim to hit 340rwhp once I'm done with her. Wonderful cars!
The 2019 model change you guys are referring to is literally identical to this model. The only difference is the front bumper piece is black and has the "flowtie" in the middle? Never understood the complaining about it, looks sinister
The owner really did not miss a spec
its gorgeous
He should definitely pop up in some more of your vids!!
I just wanted to hear the car talk. Maybe you’ll have a just driving video if your host is so gracious. The info he provided was generously excellent. Thanks for that. The car sounds so good. It deserves its own video.
I used to have a 2022 1SS 1LE and it was a great driving car. Only reason I got rid of it was to get my 2022 GT500.
This is my favourite colour for this car. So good.
I wish my 2SS crackled that much
My 2020 LT1 has the NPP and crackles just as much... more so when cold.
Ram Mount next to the infotainment screen. Please give more info like part number.
I have a 2017 2SS Fifty package and you are so right about the touch screen. I always rest my fingers on the top of the screen so I can accurately use my thumb to hit buttons.
I've owned many performance cars from Trans Ams, Corvettes, BMW Ms, etc. First car I have ever owned where there is absolutely nothing to upgrade. If you want more HP, get the ZL1.
That lime green looks sick. Having a hard time trying to figure out which color to pick for mine since there aren’t too many offerings
Anyone notice the door color change when it was in track mode pretty cool. Sounds great
even in the 400's for horsepower, this thing sounds mean as hell. huge freaking props to GM for that
My Dream Muscle Car!!! WOW!!! Total Bad Ass Machine 🇺🇸.
If you are on a long road trip you can get 25+ mpg pretty easily with the manual or the 10spd auto. I've had both, I want to say I got closer to 27-28 with the m6 and 24-25 with the A10
The 2019 model bumper everyone disliked. 2020 was the year they fixed it real quick.
I daily a 2019 C7 Grand Sport, absolutely love life.
I had a 2020 same color same everything. 2 years 30k miles later sold it for what I bought it for. I severely regret that decision… so much so I ordered another one just to experience the car again before they stop making em. So sad Chevy treated the camaro as the red headed step child no one loved.
Hey what's happening now that's awesome z28 with a six speed manual transmission saved the manual transmission and thanks for sharing your videos with me 🖐👍🙂
I would haver got one of these or another c7 but since I got a kiddo I bought a ct4v-blackwing and man am I impressed with this chassis after having the c7 z51 with mag ride before this, basically a v6 turbo 4 door corvette
Nice video.
Beautiful Camaro thank you for sharing beautiful
What do you like better the Type R or SS 1LE? How does your winner compare to the 5 Blackwing?
thanks for the vid. looked like a fun cruise!
Camaros has come a long way from the reliability standpoint. I haven't looked at one of these since the late 80s
Gorgeous car
Nice to see theTopher driving a car i own.
I ordered one late march 2023, and it’s being built this week (June 26th)🤷🏻♂️. Lead times could be much worse
How anyone would consider a Subaru BRZ or Honda Civic Type R over a Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE is beyond me. To each their own, I guess. I'm absolutely in love with my 2023 1SS 1LE in a 6 speed manual. Best decision I ever made buying that car. Arguably the greatest performance value ever under $50k!
Because the BRZ is 30k. You get what you pay for
I have 30k, i dont have 50k. Your first question is really easy to answer, and I did not even consider a 1LE when I bought my BRZ.
Those are two cars I'm considering. Type r and ss1le. Love the ss1le, but also have family and type r would be perfect for taking family out.
@@retrograde11 SS 1LE is quite a bit more expensive and doesn’t have 4 doors. Get a type R. Or an Elantra N.
@@bryanribey 👍
They stopped production on the 15th of June. 2023 are no longer available to order, and good luck finding 1. The 2024s are going to be built on Aug 7th. Happy to have placed an order for 1 already also.
I know with the base seats people modify them to recline more, perhaps this would be possible with the recaros. I'll be picking one up regardless. One of the last "simple" fun driver's cars left.
Last year for the Camaro😢
I like the owner. Well spoken guy. Dude that is my dream spec haha.
You cant beat the 1le package. I bet you this still out classes the new dark horse.
I have a 22 2SS 1LE with the 6 speed. It is truly an excellent car. I wouldn't buy this car for a daily driver though. Tires, brakes, and rotors are very expensive.
Yeah, if your gunna daily its best to swap to PS4S, the supercar3 is an amazing tire but being 200 treadware you get maybe 15k miles.
@@HyperBlueMetallic1LE My rears had cords showing at 8300 miles.. on my 22.. Bought Nitto 555G2's and they are grippy enough make the car ride sooo much better for about $1500 bucks..
I’m a mustang guy through and through, have a 2024 GT on the way. I have no clue how these things had such a hard time selling compared to its ford and Mopar counterparts. I personally think this exhaust note is the best out of all the American Muscle cars
I took my the delivery of my 2023 ss a year to date since I ordered it in 2022
This prompted me to put in an order for a 1LE. I love/hate you!
I have always liked the Camaro! I know people have strong opinions about the pony cars and the challenger but with the new Silverado interior that came out, it would be nice to see all that tech trickle down into the camaro. This interior is really nice but would like to see an overhaul.
Dude they aren't making any more Camaros, so...
I’m definitely glad you reviewed the 6speed 1le. I’m stuck between this and a GT 6speed from ‘20 and up. Really really tough.
The tremec 6060 transmission in the 6th gen camaro blows the doors off the transmission in the GT. If the transmission is important to you, the camaro is a no brainer
Completely different cars, the GT's are great for touring but the 1le's are track monsters. All depends on what you want.
I had both the 2022 1LE and a 2022 GT on order and went with the 1LE when it arrived. Better overall car. The 6 speed in the Mustang isn’t good and I am concerned about the gen 3 coyote reliability.
@@paradigm905 Really all manufacturers these days have their issues, I bought a 22 SS 1LE 2ss Manual last year and just this past Sunday on a weekend drive to lunch, my 1LE collapsed one of the shitty GM lifters.. It ate up my cam by the time i noticed the noise and got the oil pump too.. And who knows what all the cam, rod, and crank bearings look like. I am getting a new crate motor installed at the dealer as we speak.. It sucks, for that to happen to a 2022 with only 10,600 miles.. And for Christ sake, my manual doesn't even have AFM, but it still get the junk lifters.
@@Clutch_Kick187 That definitely scares me regarding the lifters. Was the car properly broken in? Do you take it to redline often? I wonder how much of a common occurance this is on the LT1 6-speed cars.
I really want one of these. I hope I can snag a used one if 3-4 years from now that is well taken care of.
I’m currently in high school and I want to own one of these sixth gen Camaro V8s with a manual. It’s a shame that they’re going away :(
Awesome and that crackle so eargasm
I have a 22 SS non-1le in the same color. For the money its a track monster.
Great review!
which winter wheel/tire package does your buddy have?
I think it’s straight from an SS
@@TheTopher thank you, sir!
They're an aftermarket set of wheels for an SS, the standard SS pattern/offset should fit a 1LE without issue. I run Nokian Hakkas in the winter, great in the snow.
@@mikecompagnoni thank you, Mike!
