I Want to thank IG Accounts SMURF_zL1, Protoncannon_, dead_ZLE, blackbowtieguy For the amazing ZLE pictures. RIP ZLE
I just hugged my 2023 ZLE!!!
I currently proudly own a 2022 Camaro ZL1/1LE six speed manual and after waiting eleven and a half months my 2023 ZO6/Z07 3LZ is finally in the garage next to it! It is beyond sad that GM is doing this!
Dream garage!
@banditapache-nd6lu you may not know this but im your long lost son 😂🤣
Haha godly setup
I’m willing to get adopted if you will be a good father figure and let me drive them.
Much appreciated.
GM should make a GT3 competitor to the GTD and could use this as the platform.
I tried to order a ZLE in early July 2022. Chevrolet dealer told me it would be a long wait and they didn't have a "good feeling" about the allocations. I bought a used 2SS 1LE with 6k miles 2 weeks later. Glad I did.
Enjoy your low quality 😂 it'll show thru the modules and engines
@@cormaro13Meanwhile you drive no SS I mean why else would you come at a guy who EARNED his vehicle congrats on showing who you are
@@_Shake_i I wouldn't want to drive a ss even for free , I got rid of my low quality trash a long time ago , but I'm glad you fools can still look at old videos lol
And just cause he got doesn't mean he's going to like it , if they actually built these pieces of trash with care then maybe lol
@@cormaro13 Out of the big three or six Camaro ZLEs any Z06 and Shelby handle anything you can name the guy got his car and said he enjoys it what's it matter to you because you don't have what he has dude grow up and buy the car you want instead of punching him down
As of last Friday I’m an owner of a 2024 ZL1 Coupe. I’m happy as heck but the way I got it just ain’t right. Someone actually put a deposit down on it but they sold it to me because they said I was there first. It’s possible the salesman was lying but I don’t think he was. I even said to him, “ouch! That dude’s gonna be pissed!” He simply said, “it happens.”
GM is also playing this game with the Camaro and saving the CF for the Vette as well, its sad times but we should all be used to it by now. - Mark
Sad times we living in
Very well said! I will definitely be holding on to my ZLE.
Thank you man. Congrats on having an amazing car.
I got a new 2SS auto in 2016 but was thinking about some modifications but my dreams came true when I found out in 2019 that gm was putting the automatic 10 speed in the zl1 1le.Kept my eye on 1 locally and went for it when the time was right and price. I so glad I got it sitting in my driveway.❤❤❤
Keep up the good work bro, you’re my favorite Camaro UA-camr by far
Man that means the world to me. Thank you bro 🤘
@@Hot-1LEme too ❤️
Great video. Still hope to obtain a standard ZL1 sometime in the future. Unfortunate that younger enthusiasts like myself are seeing the end of ICE cars before some of us even enter the workforce.
I feel bad for you guys. Ev junk incoming!
Yep I am the same way. This next year I’ll be finally getting a career worth a damn and it will take a little while before I’m comfortable buying something like this. My preferred car would probably be a CTS V or the v6 or v8 blackwing manual.
waited 2.5 years for my car. 2023 ZL1 1LE M6 Sharkskin Metallic . All options including PDR. Car was built July 17th. Finally picked it up from the dealership Nov 16 23. Currently has 52KMs on it. Cant wait for warmer weather to take it out of storage
This is the most pathetic way for gm to send off the camaro smh
How when they doing it on purpose the problem is yall have too much faith in trinkets
It's not our fault gm sells such junk 😂
I WANT TO SEE A 7th GEN CAMARO. I have a new 2023 Camaro SS 1LE that I built and ordered. I’m so glad I did it because I really don’t see Chevrolet listening to the public and building a V8 7th Gen Camaro. They never have and never will. If…. IF we see a 7th Gen Camaro it’s going to be electric, yuck I just threw up in my mouth for saying that. Our country is NOT ready for all electric vehicles. I think it should be available as an option not the only option. Ok I’m done ranting. Great video
I wouldn't, if it's anything like their other models , nothing but low quality trash
Damn man. RIP, end of an era :(
I feel like GM is ran by a bunch of friends and family members that love the Corvette and secretly look down on the Camaro for some reason, the only time they did decent marketing on the Camaro in recent years was when the 5th gen 1st came out and that was it, it was the engineers that made the 6th gen Camaro's so well that they kept on selling because they were that much better than all the other muscle cars, and pretty much all the foreign cars in it's price range too. I feel like GM underestimated the importance and value of the Camaro, and the overestimated this whole EV rush and it's going to cost them financially big time.
Exactly best bang for the buck handling, speed ect one of the most sold cars
The Camaro ZL1 1LE is my favorite car. After that the Corvette ZR1 2019. Very sad to see the Camaro go away. I don't care about GM's collectors edition with their limited production numbers. Just like Dodge and Ford the average guy can't afford the prices they put on these cars 🤬🤡🤡
GM did this before, I was driving a 4th gen T/A when i heard Pontiac was soon to be no more and GM wasn't building a 5th gen Camaro in 2003. Sure enough, the rumors came true. That was a strange time, eventually there was a buzz about a new 5th gen Camaro coming back. When it did, it sold pretty well.
This information has been live in the groups for a minute. But I really enjoy you content.
I really appreciate that man!
Excellent, Thanks again for posting your vids motivating me to order my 2023 zl1 1le last year. It arrived in March 2023 after waiting ten months for arrival.
Congrats on your car man! Smart you did it a while back. Enjoy the beast
I wouldn't , low quality junk
This is great news for me! Yaw can buy my 21 zle with 10,000 miles for 90,005
The only reason I got mine zl1 1le in 23 was a guys financing fell through at the last minute and I got in a plane that day.. crazy times
Totally happy with my 2023 2ss 1le 6 speed manual
thank you for giving it to us straight. i saw the writing on the wall as well - have had an order in for a ZLE since 1/14/22, but 20 months later, am *still* without an allocation. luckily, i was able to find a brand new '23 ZL1 M6 in all the ways i had specced my ZLE having JUST arrived at a local dealership here in CA. i grabbed it, even with ADM. i still have my ZLE order in *just in case* a miracle happens, but if not (what with the constraints, CE's taking over all existing supplies and the impending UAW strike), then at least i'm not SOL and have my ZL1 knowing that the universe never had a ZLE in the cards for me.
Congrats on beast of a car man! You made the right move. Youll love it. Trust me
same crap here, had money on one for 14 months, bought a 1le from long beach for 10,000 over sticker. Wrong color, trans and no data recorder....bs!!!!!
I had my ZLE order in for a year and it was never accepted. Found one a couple months ago new on lot, and had to snatch it up even with ADM. No regrets, it's a beast.
did it have all the features/colors you originally specced, or were there a few things you ended up deciding you could live with?
@@stormzybanksy It had the main things I wanted - Manual Trans & 1LE package. Nothing else mattered too much. It didn't have the PDR, which I wanted on my build. My original order was Rapid Blue, but the one I got is Radiant Red. I'm actually glad I ended up with this color over Rapid Blue though, it's a little bit more subtle.
@@v8Keko nice one man, congrats! radiant red a bit more subtle, lol. i see what you did there.
My 2023 9:39 LT1 drives great
Yes this sucks big time. Just an example, Imagine a refresh 7th gen 6.2 with a better blower putting out at least 750 hp, updated Interior and the new updated magnetic ride suspension and under 80k. Id trade my car in for that all day.
Yep we knew this was coming no surprise ima keep my 2016 2SS for life!!! U def didn’t lie about being such a capable car!! An def isn’t much out there that can mess with the 6gen Camaros! Y’all hold on to them babies!
Enjoy your junk 😂 we all know what goes wrong with that year
@@cormaro13 apparently we don’t cause haven’t had any problems coming up on 80,000 Lmao so can You even afford one ? 🤣😩
@@calvinjr6020 😂 afford is a understatement , I wouldn't want that trash even for free , just be looking forward to not much longer on life especially if you're still stock , we already know what's going to happen lol
@@cormaro13 lmao nah good try we all know u can’t afford one! Lmao get off these posts commenting on things you cant afford 🤣🤣🤣🤣 go drive your Civic bro 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@calvinjr6020 boy you can barely afford that 2016 and you're on here talking like it worth something 😂 sit down peasant , some of us have new cars of this year already, if I wanted a low quality, hard plastic and electrical issues I'll choose gm again , but some us grow up and learn self value
But it looks like you're still figuring that out, especially with all those fake bands on 😂😂😂
Dang man.. i have a SS1le that just got accepted by production. I hope they finish it before they decide to strike lol
I ordered the black Panther collectors edition the day it was released and I still have not heard from GM yet. I thank it's time for Marry Barra to be let go from GM as the CEO she is killing Gm
Ya thata going to be a very tough car to get. I wish you luck!
Honestly, I’m so glad I got a 24 2SS 1LE allocation. Scheduled to be built the week of September 4th! So right before the strike!
Hell ya congrats man!
Enjoy your low quality, you're going to need for the constant warranty work 😂
GM not taking orders for zl1 1le has been going on for several months. I tried to order one in January and GM said I could do zl1 but not the 1le. I ended up buying a used one with 4k miles on it. I would never sell. 2020 ZLE 6 speed in satin steel
I currently have a 2020 2SS and would love a ZL1 but my car is good enough with 18k miles on it still making me smile
Had an order in for a 2024 1ss 1le. Ordered first week of when you could order. Dealer called and said they weren't doing ANY 1le's for any cars and this was last month. Thankfully I found a 2023 manual 1ss 1le and it's getting here this Thursday. So sad to see them not transparent at all. I get the business aspect, but company's love ruining what they have going for them.
I lost it at the “not real” clip 🤣
🤣🤣
not dead. just gone for now. itll be back as a 7th gen. i still enjoy my zl1 even after over 3 yrs. people compliment it constantly.
It might just be electric for the 7th gen knowing corporate Chevy, at that point it’s useless
Work at a Chevrolet dealership, I’ve noticed that all the latest 2023 arriving, 2SS 1LE with every other option you can think of. 60k+ sticker price plus mark up.
Yup i been seeing that as well. Maximizing value and getting rid of the parts. Man the ending sucks.
You must like being around junk all the time lol
Just put my order in for a zl1 in nitro yellow at Steven’s creek Chevrolet. Hopefully it gets accepted..
Fingers crossed for ya man!
ZL1 regular thats all i want idc if used
I got extremely lucky and found my brand new 23 ZLE 6 speed for msrp a month ago out of state. Looks like ill be holding onto it for a while
Great deal on that car especially right now. Congrats!
GM is so mismanaged it’s a joke. The carbon supplier had issues when the C8 debuted years ago and GM still didn’t take the correct steps to fix the issue.
Does anyone know how many 2023 zl1 1les were made all together? Just got mine luckily and they seem to be very scarce compared to previous years.
I believe there were only 28 2024 ZLEs made. If that's not correct, let us know. I saw one sell for $30k over msrp so approx $111k.
Yup 28 is correct! Basically cleaning up the left over parts before they shut down production entirely. They have been selling at huge markups
Good video. I’ll be getting my 23 rapid blue ZLE next week, very excited. In practice, would you happen to know the 23 ZLE production numbers by chance?
Glad I got my 23 ZL1 when I did!
This is so sad to me. I was just getting ready to order me one the 1st of October. An was hoping I will receive it buy my Birthday in December. Well Im guessing im S.O.L. again
y u didnt get that white ragg top in the background omg
I've said just about all the same stuff about this low effort '24 roll out. Such a missed opportunity.
I oreded one in 2022 in canada. My order sat for ever. Found one at a dealer in my second choice in color and it didnt have my manual but i bought it anyway. Not dissapionted just wish i could smash gears. Only have ever seen two other ones they were both white and one was manual and the other was a10. Both were getting upgrades at our local gm shop
I wonder how prices will fare on the used ZL1 1LE's now that production is coming to end....may be a good time to grab one as an investment piece to have alongside my 2023 SS. Just need to win the Lotto, thats my next move.
I ordered my 2020 ZL1, 6-speed, in August of 2019 just days before the GM Strike, I took possession of it in Nov of 2019 and was pleasantly surprised when it arrived with a hand-built Engine that was originally built at the bowling green Corvette plant. Since 2020 was the first production year of the 2020 mid-engine Corvette, the surplus supercharged hand-built Corvette engines were shipped to the Camaro plant and placed in the ZL1s. Just wondering if anybody has any info on 2020 ZL1 production numbers, and how many came with the hand-built engines? When I ordered my ZL1 the hand-built engine was not an option. I would also like to know if the Hand Built, builder Plaque engines have become standard in the ZL1's for 2021 to present ?
From what i found 2020 there was a mix of the hand built from KY and the others from canada. By 2021 they were all built in KY. So ya you def got lucky there!
Wow GM couldn't find a solution for the carbon fiber wing and killing the Camaro all together really stinks. I will look for a Mustang.
Picked up a 2019 zle
Not a gm guy but always liked the camero and it’s push for handling and I believe they made the best handling muscle car out of the three .
With that said I always thought the camero and corvette were to close in price and I rather spend 70k plus on a corvette over a camero at the performance
Camaro
Man this breaks my heart
Same Bro......Same
Que, I say you find your ZL1 Rapid Blue and tell them you want it back ASAP! 🤣🤣👍👍
@@BanditApache-nd6lu Lol! I could have sworn I say it pass me when I was at work
Oh yeah! I have sold some cars and trucks in my town and to this day quite a few years later, I still see them driving around,
Sizame or as we say in the hood "Same".
Got my 2ss 1le a few months ago.
Hell yes congrats!
I sure hope to see an all new 7th gen gasoline powered v8 Camaro
It may be a dream but sure would like it. The new Mustang Dark Horse looks like a flop to me. It's hideous and over hyped imo
Very sad day. What a track weapon it is/was.
so it seems that GM actually *did* release a final batch of 2024 ZL1 1LE's today - 10/19/23. i heard from two dealers here in CA that from what they could see, there were 24 available nationwide today. if this is true, these things will be more valuable than even the CE's!
Ya your right! I saw 10 but could be more. Looks like they are clearing out their shelves lol!
@@Hot-1LE i saw the spreadsheet showing 10 as well (from the camaro6 forums), though that was specifically from a dealer in TX, and it represented his region only. he wasn't even sure if his region was just the state of texas, or encompassing more of the southern states. either way, that certainly seems like a massive portion of the ~24 total allocation that was made available.
i called several dealers in CA and AZ yesterday and NONE of them received any allocation. so it'll be interesting to see who benefited from this once the dust settles.
23 2ss owner here...such an amazing vehiicle and driving 60 mph on a normal road gets 36 mpg on the v4.v8 mode on a 6.2 L V9. NO ELECTRIC hocus pocus needed. dude! This d\ives as a daily is so efficient! And tro have such force available on a momonments notice! Please GM reconsider going EV. you killed this camaro by not msrketing it. TZhe comp has sold so much more (ford/stellantis)because the execs think ow sales means kill it vs develope Chevy enthusiats will walk away forever, goodbye GM nice to know you. BTW, lithium sources are now showing a resouirce issue. And EV chargung stations are WAY behind expected availability. I'm hppy ro say not a share holder here. Readingthis so far??? SELL! You know where tis goes...
One would think a giant corporation such as gm would be able to reach out to other suppliers and get the 5-600 extra wings for those ZL1 1LEs they would've built. The cool $15K on the CE package that nets them about $14.9K would be more than enough to subsidize any low volume losses they might have incurred. Then again, I'm naive enough to apply common sense 😆
at this stage in the game, it too late to reach out to a new supplier when the song is winding down.
Sad day for Chevy Camaro. This maybe my last product I buy from them until further notice
Oh snap check you out!
Good u know what low quality is lol
@@cormaro13 🤣🤣🤣
@@BLUPRINT1LE it's true , u keep seeing new camaro on the side of the road with the engine blow before 10k mileage then u have the fb public groups for camaros saying it too lol
I know because people are unaware of the lifter issues in these engines and be driving them hard. Luckily for me I was aware and did a built motor on mines. But hey if they have a warranty on it, I guess they can blow them back to back lol if they tuned it then they SOL@@cormaro13
Hot 🔥 1le I'm Marco Jordan already have a camaro zl1 sc750 callaway
Hell of a car!
What’s that movie clip from?
haha Robin Hood Men in Tights LOL
They want a 46℅ raise !!!!! I'm a Union man we would get a quarter a year for 5 years till the next contract !!!!
When you build a camaro zl1 on the online configurator and look at the summary page under the 'Mechanical' section you find the 'Magnetic Ride Control' part where you see the line:
'- Deleted from ZL1 Coupe models when available ZL1 1LE Extreme Track Performance Package is ordered'
It makes it sound like the ZL1 1LE package might become available later down the line?? Idk
You can add the dssv dampeners as an option or it adds when you change the wheels. But the build still lacks the full 1le package. GM is using up their current inventory of parts. The 1le extreme package still shows in dealer order books but there is 0 allocations and availability for it on that same form. Keeping in mind there is only 4 months of 2024 camaros to be built.
@@Hot-1LE This sucks. I’m actually supposed to go to a dealership here in the Orlando area tomorrow and build out a ZL1 1LE and then this news comes out. Only 1 out 4 that agreed to build one for me. They said they promise I’ll get an allocation if I build one out with them, place a $3K non-refundable deposit and wait 6-12 months for the car. But just like you mentioned I’ve heard there are only 4-5 months left of building camaros. I’d assume GM would honor the sale if I put the non-refundable deposit down and then they’d build it in time. I REALLY want one and it’s my first time buying a car like this at this price point. Should I go for it or find a used one?
@@MasculineMenace also keep in mind the impending UAW strike that goes down on 9/15. i think your dealership has the best intentions, but they cannot promise that.
@mathuzala gm cant honor it. Its fully dependent if that dealer gets an allocation and that is chosen by a distribution into regions and then to dealers. Ask them if they have an allocation they will say no. You can put your deposit in as long as its refundable you can get your money back in a few months. 4 months till they stop making camaros chances getting very thin and with strike looming.
Blame the EPA regs. It's apparent that GM can only maintain one gas sports car (or chose to) in the current environment, as a result they've turned the faucet to a slow drip on the Camaro these last couple years.
I hope the 7th Gen is ICE. I’d have to get one. I feel bad for those with orders in
Sizame!
Would you buy a hybrid Camaro?
Man i do not know 🤣
Yea I would buy a hybrid camaro if it have a supercharged 950hp
GM dropped it because dealers cant charge ADMs
Sucks for everyone but atleast these electric hybrid sport cars are doing 10s in the quarter mile look at the eray
Keep up the good work
Man your seriously generous thank you so much i really appreciate the support. 🤘
Interesting, sucks for those who ordered one. Good editing 👍🏽
Thanks man!
I thought they were making it to Z/28 now to end Camaro
Ill put money on it there wont be a z28.
So nothing to compete with gtd stang?
I mean theres the Z06 c8 but aside from that nothing right now.
I can’t believe I’m watching my dream car die and I don’t even own
Just be like most people and find one on the used market and just pay the price
@@TwoDollarGararge the potential problem I see is that the market for them sky rocket by the time I get the money for one
@@rihno7978 then get one before it happens
What's kind of stupid is you can't build this and add a sunroof
Ppl just going mod their zl1 to look like 1le.. which is better imo bc all current 1 le have the honey comb grill and I will argue against anyone that the regular zl1 grill is the superior grill, especially from side pov for a car lined up next to u it’s not even close
The camaro does not get the respect it deserves like the mustang I rather have a camaro save the camaro
If any should be ended for stopping production is the mustang should be canceled out
Most people don't care about a camaro, when you can get a MUSTANG 😂
Im not most people.
I would buy a 7th gen camaro V 8 powered
Sad way for camaro to go out…wee need that 7th gen
Yup totally agree
My wife wants a 2024 SS convertible ...
Should be obtainable since the verts tend to sit on the lots a little longer. Just going to be slim.
So Corvettes will keep Going?!
Corvettes keep going yes. But if they strike in september there will be a freeze on production until thats resolved.
@@Hot-1LE which car you prefer or like better?
Camaro all the way
@@Hot-1LE explain please I’m new here
Camaros have manual transmissions so for me i have no interest in automatic only which the c8 only comes with. C8 is a good car but i liked the c7 vette way more. I think thats the biggest thing tbh.
Great content! However, its all bout the C7 and the all new E-Ray!
I love the C7!
Now you get an off brand ferrari that beats nothing.
Hahah yeah not a huge fan of the c8 either.
GM needs to be run by car guys again.
How unfortunate, the 2024 Camaro is just basically leftover parts from rhe shelf. I have an order for a 24 ZLE....refundable deposit, so I'll just wait it out til the production ends, so no loss. If not I'll start to save some pennies for the return of the King in 2025.
I dont wana be that guy but if your expecting the 25 z28 to come out i would seriously doubt it. Good luck with your order lmk how it goes!
Time for a Mustang!
If the gt500 had a manual it might be a consideration but since it dosnt...
🙏🏼💙
GM dropped the ball on every aspect of the 6th Gen Camaro ... I would have bought another 6th Gen in the 2.0L turbo if they had multiple options like 2 or 3 different gear ratios, should have had a LSD in the Automatic transmission ..HP increase over the years, etc ..
If you're still looking at gm then you're dumb 😂 , stop liking low quality
They cut all the LS and 4 cylinder cars
Yup your right!
Theyre probably tired of switching out of engines 😂
On the lt4? Very rarely
@@Hot-1LE cause that's why the chevy dealerships is find with them lol
Noooooooooooo
Dodge killed the Camaro! It doesn’t matter who’s better. What matters is what sells and enthusiasm doesn’t translate into profits. After the strike, (there will be a strike) production of the Camaro will not resume.
Its taken you 12 minutes to say the same sentence over and over bro. This video could have been 1 minute long. I do agree about the "preferred" customer list for example if Jay Leno wants one he will get one. A lot of what you said is conjecture however. Its what you think and your probably right but again, it just takes you too long to say it LOL.
Youll be ok.
Hopefully so will you but then again no one cares about me its all pointed at the guy making the videos. Honestly you have issues and I tried often to enjoy and have a positive attitude about your videos. However I now officially give up. You contradicted yourself over the years as each one of your experiences changes. You talked crap about GM service and you still buy a GM car. I hope your not so much in debt that your wife doesn't boot you out.@@Hot-1LE

I dont think anyone would fault you for that
Soooo long suckers..🖐
You really like your own comment bro 😂

I forgot the gm ceo name but she's doing a terrible job. We need someone who really has passion for automotive.
I think she was planted by the government during the bailout to push their eventual green electric agenda. Just my opinion.
