Awesome work, I can't imagine how much editing you have been doing in the past few weeks. You are most certainly about it a David. Thanks for making a hard day great! :)
P.S everybody- not here to argue. When I talk about weight I'm referencing it compared to a Mustang GT of 2013 (this ZL1 was a 2012 year) Mustang GT base model- 3,483 lbs Camaro ZL1-3,750 lbs Just diffusing people comment wars start happening since the new Mustang is heavier than the previous generation. Have a great day!
you buy the GT500 for the engine, insane output, and straight line. you buy the ZL1 for its suspension, chassis, brakes, and handling. both are great pick your car.
Lol the ZL1 has more horsepower and is faster in the 1/4 than a GT500 of the same year, so I'll buy the ZL1 for the "insane output" and "straight line" too. I don't know what the hell YOUR talking about😆
@@xsixinfantryx the mustangs are good at going in lines and are descent in corners as well they look pretty bad ass I’m liking the aggressive look they are going for so I think that it does come down to preference and which one you can handle more
Russel Nguyen Unfortunately most people aren't mature enough to realize that they can like more than one thing at a time. Cars, video game consoles, sports, you name it.
I like the looks of this generation more than the current one. The front end of the current generation looks a lot like this generation but it is getting ready to sneeze. I can't unsee it.
David, i wanna thank you for being the person you are, your videos have been so great and an inspiration and motivated me to start making videos as well thank you so much ill continue to watch you grow and learn much more from you.
Thank you for introducing me to the first person in my entire life and career that can say good things about a Camaro without making comparisons to a Mustang. ThatDudeinBlue you're a real automotive fan :D
David Patterson Had an absolute blast making this review with you dude. Those glamour shots came out absolutely gorgeous! put the biggest smile on my face. Im so glad this ended up working out and Im now on the list of reviewed cars! Hope our paths cross again dude, stay awesome. :)
Compared to a lot of the other car channels you editing and music is awesome! We all appreciate all the time and effort you take to make every video immaculate! Keep up the good work!
I appreciate you good sir, for showing us these amazing cars, these videos get me threw these days , watching them over and over again until I get my first car.
Danny Contreras the only difference between the LSA and the LS9 is the blower size and camshaft. +the intake port is 10cc smaller. All you need is a pulley/tune for the LSA.
I rented the SS convertible not long ago around Arizona and it really did feel great. The interior was much better than I expected too. There is leather on most common places (seats, arm rest, steering wheel, shifter, etc.) and although there are a couple of hard surfaces, it's much better than most Mustangs and older muscle cars. The visibility due to the thick pillars, big mirrors and thin window openings is something you get used to and with the top off, it's really sweet. It sounds and pulls great and it does 2000 rpm until about 80 mph so the engine and exhaust are very quiet when you're not revving high. Being able to pass cars on the highway while In 5th or 6th at under 2000 rpm is pretty silly and you really don't realize how fast you're accelerating unless you shift manually and let it go into the higher RPM. The HUD interface is also great, you really don't need to check your dash at all while you drive. It's a really nice car and with some weight reduction it'll be even better.
Great review as always this car looks epic and certainly drives epic as we'll I've always had a respect for the Camaro but this video brings it to a whole new level.
I wouldn't want to be caught dead in a Camaro... Just can't get over the styling or the personality traits that seem to stem from owning one. But I do appreciate them for lighting a fire under Fords pants because I love my '14 track pack. This ZL1 does sound good though... prime time for loving cars.
It doesn't matter if you love a mustang or a camaro , just be happy youre driving a modern muscle car , every car had its ups and downs , what do you say david? *drops mic*
David’s got to do another 5th Gen ZL1. This one is definitely nice but basically stock for power. I’ve got an 800hp inferno orange ZL1 that I think would change your mind about 5th Gen Camaros!
Nice review! I have been looking around for a used ZL1 since I just test drove the 2015 2SS/1LE and thought it was way underpowered for how heavy it is. If I got the '15 2SS a supercharger would have to be the first mod.
just got my ZL1 from the tuners with a full catless exhaust. I can say I agree with you David, it's very streetable in this setup until you want to summon angry v8 gods!
Hatem Ghulam Yeah man, she's my baby and I do bro!@gianni_maiuro.. got a few videos and pics of the camaro and a lot of other cool cars as well!! check it out dude!
John Dominy I love when people who aren't really camaro fans compliment the car! It makes me really proud to own something that makes people set aside bias and just enjoy the car. Thanks so much for the kind words bro, it truly means a lot... Also yesterday someone commented on my instagram photo saying that they were a die hard import guy but they loved my car, definitely put a smile on my face.
Jake From State Im thinking of a 15' GT Premium Performance pack for a daily. Theyre unbelievably pretty! And thanks man, glad someone else knows the feeling :D
I love my '13 ZL1. I have had many hotrods, and this one is just ridiculously fab. FOR THE MONEY, you can't beat it. Sure the new Z28 might be impressive - but it is no daily driver (and ridic expensive by comparison).This is a Great daily driver or race car. And dudes are always trying to FCK with it (mostly in 5.0 Mustangs or SRT8 Challengers) and they get embarrassed every time. It drives amazing, brakes amazing, handles dreamy, but when you STOMP IT, you'd better hold on. There is no SS, no 5.0, no SRT8 (I had a Challenger SRT8) no nothing that compares overall. (OVERALL). Sure, you can nitpik little things here and there - as you can with any car.FIRST THING any ZL1 owner should do - GET RID OF THOSE AWFUL GOODYEAR F1 Tires. They are horrible. Even new tires, awful. Swap out the tires asap - or you will find your self spinning around into a ditch without even trying. Even with traction control, those tires cannot handle this car.I personally put Nitto Invo's on mine (315 on rear/ 295 front). A LIFETIME of improvement, control, safety compared to the F1's. No lie.Love the brakes, BUT, they shed dust all over the wheels in no time. So, swap out the pads for ceramic pads (I did Hawk brand pads). Problem solved.Also, the splash guards on the fenders are not good enough. You will sling road debris all over this car (especially with the horrendous Goodyear F1 tires) Anyone who poo-poos this car has NEVER driven one. Simple as that. I have driven them all, GT500, SRT8, no comparison at all. Not even close (as an overall sport car).There are fewer ZL1's on the road, so you get noticed by REAL gearheads. Sure, the Challenger looks cool and all, but not even close to this car as an overall sport vehicle. I personally think the newer Mustangs look too futuristic compared to this. Even the 2016-17 Camaro looks a wee bit too "spacey" for me.I drove a GT500. Sure it's "nice" and all. But overall, does not compare. And I was considering the GT500 before I found a ZL1. It is nowhere close to the same. Anywho, I might be biased, but as a previous owner of an SRT8, and test-drove a GT500 (open-mindedly), none of those cars compare overall.Get the 315 width tires on the rear, put you some extended splash-guards/mudflaps, and get rid of the Goodyear F1 tires, so you don't cringe every time you hear road debris spattering all over your baby. And blow away every flippin moron who thinks this car is 'just' some SS. (Happens to me at least 3X a week)
If I had to choose between a GT500 and a ZL1, Hands down I'd choose the GT500. It should cost less and give about 90hp more (@667hp) and it's 2/3 of a sec faster in the 1/4 mile. Sure it doesn't handle anywhere as good on a road course but most people don't track their cars and even fewer would even race along side another car. I race along side people every chance I get on the highway or from the light and the gt500 is a car I would love to do that in. Don't get me wrong If I owned a 580hp supercharged 6.4L V8 monster, it would put a huge smile on my face.
They are both basically the same price. And if your only reason for buying "anything" is because of its horsepower - you know very little about anything, my man. There will always be "something" more powerful. But for a daily driver, and a race car, you cannot argue with what the ZL1 does. I drove the ZL1, GT500 and SRT8. All "nice" cars. But the Z runs circles around them for everyday driving as well as racing. The brakes and suspension alone destroy the GT500. I tried it. I know. There is nothing better than having all of that in one vehicle that few people own as well. Rare to even see a ZL1 on the road. But I see tons of GT500's and SRT8's. I prefer rare and still badass. GO drive them all and get back to me. Until you actually drive them - you have nothing to say. Goodbye.
+David Harris exceptional brakes suspension really only good on the track. In normal driving even at fast speeds they mean nothing. The gt500 will beat it well from light to light or in a roll on the highway (no dragstrip you're not a good reader/listener I take it) which is what most people care about. I mean just look at the tons of videos real car owners upload on UA-cam. As a daily driver, how can it be better? Visibility is very bad, I mean very bad. Tolerable, yes, since there are a lot of 5th gen owners, but that alone makes it not a pleasant drive and I've driven the SS and because of the poor visibility, it wasn't worth getting use to since I own the mustang GT so I abandoned driving it after 15 minutes while my cousin constantly wants to drive my mustang. Better daily driver? I don't know what criteria, you or some reviewers are basing. Better visibility, faster, more power, lighter, more exciting experience (watch the comparison video from a British perspective). Nuff said.
Until you have driven them all, you really have no comment to make. I have driven them all, and I know what I like. If you don't like a good car, that is up to you. If you only go on horsepower numbers, and what you think is pretty, that is on you. But to go on what performs best for the money, you can't beat it. Simple as that. Nothing more to be said. Go drive them all, and then comment on it with some educated terms. I personally don't give a damn what some other reviews says. I go on what I feel on my own. If you care to just read something and swear it is Gospel, that is on you as well. But if you actually test it yourself, and feel the same, that is also your opinion. But just going on what you see and hear without feeling it yourself, that is called an uneducated opinion.
It's a pretty bold statement saying that the ZL1 is the best Camaro made. It's great in all but I don't think it's the best. You have the very fast Z/28 that is track ready straight from the factory. In my opinion the ZL1 is more straight line oriented.
I love your music choice and can usually tell how the music fits the car or setting it's in, but this time I didn't quite understand and was wondering what your reasoning for its choice was? I like the song I just want to hear your opinion. Keep up the great work! Love your videos
My all time goal is to have david review my car. At the moment tho my jetta gli isnt too exciting :P david stop in georgia on the way back home we have some great cars here too! love the constant reviews, it makes my day seeing your name pop up of my phone.
It's not a heavy car compared to the ones in its class. 2014 GT500 3,845 lbs, 2014 ZL1 3,860(4,120 if auto, another reason to not buy auto)lbs, and the Hellcat being the heavy one at 4,560 lbs lol.
The z28 was motortrends best drivers car of the year. Meaning it has more than straight line speed and horsepower. Its balanced and is made for racing but street legal. No stereo no nothing u wouldn't see in a race car
The 2014 Camaro 1LE Wide body with just stock 378 cu LS3 manual is a monster. Just picked one up with 35K miles for 23K, smells brand new even under the hood. I agree with you but, you add this affordability, my car is the best. I almost have to sell it because I love it too much Lol....nahhhh ;) thanks
Can't wait for the next generation of Camaros. Apparently, the New SS will have the same performance as the current gen ZL1. That'll be a amazing performer for under $45K.
How about another update on the smurff? How many miles, thoughts after all the miles you've put on the car, any issues. Sorry if I missed the vid if you've posted already. I've seen the 50,000 mile update you put up 8 months ago.
Awesome review man. Only thing I have to say is about your car intros (the part with the music at the beginning showing the car) when you are doing those my suggestions is to not have some clips have the cinematic bars and some not, you should just do the whole intro with the cinematic bars or just whole intro without.
love the way your vids come out. What type of camera are you using? Sorry I do not know much about video equipment but am amazed at how your videos look.
It's comfy, the drive his great, the shifter is awesome.....BUT I CAN"T SEE OUT OF IT!!!. thats the only thing that really is holding me back from buying one...still going with the Challenger...yes it is big but you can see out of it more than people think.
Toyo's are great value for money - I've been use Toyo C1S's assymetrics on my car for just over a year now and loving them. Also the Proxes 4 are a good value directional. I love Pirelli and Michelin, but they have become so expensive here that I just can't justify them any more for the kind of driving I mostly do now - seriously $500+ per tyre when you can get an equivalent Toyo for a couple of hundred dollars less that is for most driving, just as good.
I'm not a big fan of the new camaros. In my area everyone has them there too played out for my taste, but you have to give credit where its due. This Zl1 is sick!
David, have you thought about driving a Toyota AE86? If there's any around in the area (I think you'd be very lucky), it'd be so awesome to see a review.
Merica.
'Murica.* (?)
Awesome work, I can't imagine how much editing you have been doing in the past few weeks. You are most certainly about it a David. Thanks for making a hard day great! :)
"Murca" (disclaimer) - made in China.
Best review ever!!!!!!
ThatDudeinBlue whats better? mustang 2015 gt vs camaro ss 2015?
P.S everybody- not here to argue.
When I talk about weight I'm referencing it compared to a Mustang GT of 2013 (this ZL1 was a 2012 year)
Mustang GT base model- 3,483 lbs
Camaro ZL1-3,750 lbs
Just diffusing people comment wars start happening since the new Mustang is heavier than the previous generation.
Have a great day!
ThatDudeinBlue Zl1 weighs 4120. weight you have listed is stripped V6
Not even mad tho.
ThatDudeinBlue erm Motor trend weighted the Zl1 at 4,180lbs
Your right!
Either way. Heavy car. Lol
You're*
you buy the GT500 for the engine, insane output, and straight line.
you buy the ZL1 for its suspension, chassis, brakes, and handling.
both are great pick your car.
or you can buy them for both
Lol the ZL1 has more horsepower and is faster in the 1/4 than a GT500 of the same year, so I'll buy the ZL1 for the "insane output" and "straight line" too. I don't know what the hell YOUR talking about😆
@@xsixinfantryx the mustangs are good at going in lines and are descent in corners as well they look pretty bad ass I’m liking the aggressive look they are going for so I think that it does come down to preference and which one you can handle more
@@xsixinfantryx proboably comparing the 2013 zl1 with the 2013 gt 500, when they upped the power to 662 crank hp
I can smell the mustang and Camaro fanboys coming soon. Can't we just all get along? I'm a mustang guy but I don't bash any car because its a rival.
Russel Nguyen All about preference. ^_^
Russel Nguyen I'd have a Z/28 and a Boss 302 I'f I had the cash.
Russel Nguyen Unfortunately most people aren't mature enough to realize that they can like more than one thing at a time. Cars, video game consoles, sports, you name it.
Jason Kinnear i couldn,t agree more.
Russel Nguyen Ive got a mustang but i would love a ZL1 my first time hearing one in person i was amazed. They sound so good!
I like the looks of this generation more than the current one. The front end of the current generation looks a lot like this generation but it is getting ready to sneeze. I can't unsee it.
JonWarAll the newest 2015 Zl1 has the same front end as the 2013.they didn't use the smaller grill ex on the zl1.
The most recent Camaro looks good. But I can't get over the fact that the rear lights remind me of a Honda prelude or older acura
I've had to rethink my whole life after reading this comment O_O
utopia vanished you mean the 2015 lights that are modeled after the 1967-69 camaro Tail lights?
JonWarAll the newer look you are talking about has more of that third generation look if you ask me... in the font at least
Cheatin on the smurf I see? ;)
Sometimes you just have to enjoy a bad bitch..
einstein v2 haha
David, i wanna thank you for being the person you are, your videos have been so great and an inspiration and motivated me to start making videos as well thank you so much ill continue to watch you grow and learn much more from you.
Is it running that Gallo 12 or Gallo 24?
I didn't know pizza places made motors
Kingw3 RIP Paul Walker.
See man i cant do this...only way i do it, is if i get to pick the driver

BIG FAN of the ZL1 so im glad to see you actually had it on your channel!
Thank you for introducing me to the first person in my entire life and career that can say good things about a Camaro without making comparisons to a Mustang. ThatDudeinBlue you're a real automotive fan :D
Nothing like a good ol American Muscle car. Nothing sounds just as good as that beastly V8 out of the factory. Such a badass car.
So happy to finally see a Camaro on the channel! Awesome review as usual
your opening edits keep getting better and better. amazing job as always on the reviews man. cheers
That's one of the best sounding LS motors I've ever heard
David Patterson Had an absolute blast making this review with you dude. Those glamour shots came out absolutely gorgeous! put the biggest smile on my face. Im so glad this ended up working out and Im now on the list of reviewed cars! Hope our paths cross again dude, stay awesome. :)
Gianni Maiuro what kind of seats were you using and how comfortable were they ?
Compared to a lot of the other car channels you editing and music is awesome! We all appreciate all the time and effort you take to make every video immaculate! Keep up the good work!
just the sound of this car is worth every dollar
I appreciate you good sir, for showing us these amazing cars, these videos get me threw these days , watching them over and over again until I get my first car.
Thank you David so much!! You really do respond to your fans!! Thanks man, much respect!
Finally, a Camaro! Great review, love how the ZL1 looks and sound.
What i like about the LSA/LS9 is the easy power increases.
a pulley and tune can make 650 horsepower for under $1,000
Would it be a good idea to swap the LS9 from the LSA on a camaro?
Danny Contreras the only difference between the LSA and the LS9 is the blower size and camshaft.
+the intake port is 10cc smaller.
All you need is a pulley/tune for the LSA.
Ahhh I see
Amazing intro as always, David!

"and... GO!" all you hear is straight Merica out the back and it is GLORIOUS!!!
David’s got to do another 5th Gen ZL1. This one is definitely nice but basically stock for power. I’ve got an 800hp inferno orange ZL1 that I think would change your mind about 5th Gen Camaros!
Ahhhh...the long awaited Camaro review. Wish it was a 2014 Z/28 but this will definitely suffice. thanks!
Love how the seat moves back every time you mash the gas. There is no substitute for fast cars.
Nice review! I have been looking around for a used ZL1 since I just test drove the 2015 2SS/1LE and thought it was way underpowered for how heavy it is. If I got the '15 2SS a supercharger would have to be the first mod.
Those gears sound like they go forever lol. The exhaust sounds incredible
Probably my favorite stock set of wheels currently in production.
just got my ZL1 from the tuners with a full catless exhaust. I can say I agree with you David, it's very streetable in this setup until you want to summon angry v8 gods!
Give them props for making one of the most beautiful vehicles ever too... And it's a solid beast I have a black and gold ss
I'm a mustang guy but that car is a thing of beauty.
Jacob Harrison thank you bud
Never thought the day would come where ThatDudeinBlue would review a camaro
Hey David I've got a question, have you ever been pulled over when doing a review?
***** Nope but very close calls.
Do wanna know what would be awesome..
If David could upload a playlist of the amazing songs he uses.
Also great video, cranking them vids out
If you ever come to Australia you should see if you could review mighty car mods 11 second gramps build
I'm all for mustangs, but damn that looks so nice.
Hatem Ghulam thanks dude, means a lot coming from someone who isn't a camaro guy!
Gianni Maiuro no problems man! that's your car? have an instagram?
Hatem Ghulam Yeah man, she's my baby and I do bro!@gianni_maiuro.. got a few videos and pics of the camaro and a lot of other cool cars as well!! check it out dude!
Gianni Maiuro alright man! i followed you! i'm @htm281 , got pics of cars on mine too :D
Loving a mustang and saying a Chevy is nice, is a big deal. Ford guys always talk shit on Chevy, so props to you for admitting that.
Im DEFINTELY more of a mustang guy! But DANG, that camaro is GORGEOUS!

good to finally see a Camaro on the channel! Thanks for posting, and as aways, great review
After so long, and so many comments, David found a camaro. There, now everyone stop asking for one from him. :) nice vid David.
That power band looks so smooth doesn't look too violent on that neck breaking shift 😉

If you care to just read something and swear it is Gospel, that is on you as well. But if you actually test it yourself, and feel the same, that is also your opinion. But just going on what you see and hear without feeling it yourself, that is called an uneducated opinion.
David you are a very lucky dude. As a car guy I would be happy as hell just being able to be in the passenger seat.
i like how youve reviewed such fast cars that 600 hp WOT doesnt even phase you
It's a pretty bold statement saying that the ZL1 is the best Camaro made. It's great in all but I don't think it's the best. You have the very fast Z/28 that is track ready straight from the factory. In my opinion the ZL1 is more straight line oriented.
He said one of the best...
Jonah Donnell i love the Z/28 more as well
Jake Russell What he said^
Jonah Donnell Z/28 is awful everywhere but the track though whereas the ZL1 is good everywhere.
Porsche Curves awful bro? Really? How much experience do you have with the Z/28?
Always a sweet sspot in my heart for GM's performance division keep em coming!
I love your music choice and can usually tell how the music fits the car or setting it's in, but this time I didn't quite understand and was wondering what your reasoning for its choice was? I like the song I just want to hear your opinion. Keep up the great work! Love your videos
'MURICA! I love Camaros, the ZL1 is what I am considering next to a C6 corvette or a Honda Magna for my next vehicule purschase. Love it!
I have to say man you you video production quality has become awesome
3:54 some one please make that "bluah" a non stop 15sec video hahaha
ChristianIsTech "it would be a sick beat bro."
as a huge Camaro and gm fan I still think the big threes muscle cars are all just bad ass and gorgeous
Finally! *tear rolls down cheek* ive been waiting for a 5th gen. Thanks!!
One of my favorite cars
My all time goal is to have david review my car. At the moment tho my jetta gli isnt too exciting :P david stop in georgia on the way back home we have some great cars here too! love the constant reviews, it makes my day seeing your name pop up of my phone.
I have a irocz if you wanna review that, shit ton of torque. Loads of fun
David, in your description for future reviews, is it possible for you to maybe provide us with a list of modifications done to the cars your review?
I like how he didn't overdo anything. It looks good! 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
So, when you gonna have a Challenger on the channel?
Whenever he can find one lol
My dad and my mom both have one and i live Alabama, so send him on over my way
I'm not sure if he will drive that far but you can email him about it lol
Alrighty, i live 2 miles from the Florida border
Okay, you have to email him to ask lol
4:15 lol that look. Thought u saw a cop or something? Lmaooo
Now we're getting to my kind of cars. Turn it blue and I'll love it forever.
glamour shots were awesome, nice job
It's not a heavy car compared to the ones in its class. 2014 GT500 3,845 lbs, 2014 ZL1 3,860(4,120 if auto, another reason to not buy auto)lbs, and the Hellcat being the heavy one at 4,560 lbs lol.
The 2012 ZL1 actually weighs 4,000 lbs. it was heavier than the S197 GT500s.
YES, I barely just requested fort you to finally review a Camaro, THANK YOU SO MUCH(:
I absolutely LOVE my Camaro ZL1!!! Thanks so much for doing this video.
+Tanisha Smith You have a ZL1! Respect!
Thanks!
+WindingMaster she's obviously lying, black women can't afford a zl1
+Scorpio S racist fuck
Jair Rangel well show me some black women that have zl1s???
It would be really cool if could review a c5 z06. Hope you find one i would like to see what think about it.
Now that is a good looking car
I've been waiting so long for you to do a Camaro review! =D
Thank you David!
David you should try to get your hands on a gt350 when they're made available. Or even a saleen
This car is lowered correct? What suspension. The ride height is perfect.
bro I love your taste in music...I go to Ultra and EDC Orlando down here in FL if you ever make it out to either you got a place to stay
Awesome, thanks for finally reviewing a Camaro!
The z28 was motortrends best drivers car of the year. Meaning it has more than straight line speed and horsepower. Its balanced and is made for racing but street legal. No stereo no nothing u wouldn't see in a race car
Hell yeah about time!!!
Cant wait till the value drops
FINALLY!!!!!! my camaro prayers have been answered, my daily burnout sacrifices worked! :D
David...this and sadly everything else will never been JD's 08' Shelby GT500 in amazingness!
The 2014 Camaro 1LE Wide body with just stock 378 cu LS3 manual is a monster. Just picked one up with 35K miles for 23K, smells brand new even under the hood. I agree with you but, you add this affordability, my car is the best. I almost have to sell it because I love it too much Lol....nahhhh ;) thanks
Can't wait for the next generation of Camaros. Apparently, the New SS will have the same performance as the current gen ZL1. That'll be a amazing performer for under $45K.
Yes! Yes! Yes! Up the technology baby!!!
My Viper you test drove had the Toyo R888 on it
RedlineS4 we are tire buddies Mr. Redline, love the R888 really hooks on my car (as you can see in the video)
Loving the Edit Good Stuff Blue!!
i really hope a gt350 review comes sometime soon
Awesome, This is my dream car can't wait to drive one on my own!
How about another update on the smurff? How many miles, thoughts after all the miles you've put on the car, any issues. Sorry if I missed the vid if you've posted already. I've seen the 50,000 mile update you put up 8 months ago.
Awesome review man. Only thing I have to say is about your car intros (the part with the music at the beginning showing the car) when you are doing those my suggestions is to not have some clips have the cinematic bars and some not, you should just do the whole intro with the cinematic bars or just whole intro without.
love the way your vids come out. What type of camera are you using? Sorry I do not know much about video equipment but am amazed at how your videos look.
It's comfy, the drive his great, the shifter is awesome.....BUT I CAN"T SEE OUT OF IT!!!. thats the only thing that really is holding me back from buying one...still going with the Challenger...yes it is big but you can see out of it more than people think.
what seats are those? love them
Toyo's are great value for money - I've been use Toyo C1S's assymetrics on my car for just over a year now and loving them. Also the Proxes 4 are a good value directional. I love Pirelli and Michelin, but they have become so expensive here that I just can't justify them any more for the kind of driving I mostly do now - seriously $500+ per tyre when you can get an equivalent Toyo for a couple of hundred dollars less that is for most driving, just as good.
Not really into camaros as much as I am into mustangs but I gotta say I would definitely love to own this lol
I'm not a big fan of the new camaros. In my area everyone has them there too played out for my taste, but you have to give credit where its due. This Zl1 is sick!
David, have you thought about driving a Toyota AE86? If there's any around in the area (I think you'd be very lucky), it'd be so awesome to see a review.
