There is no better car for $ 45,000. God bless America!
+Oren L America's making good cars again. it's awesome.👍
Mustang GT Premium with Track Pack - 43k or so, better car, faster, more room in for sitting.
Mustang dont have a significant amount of more space maybe a little more. I think the Camaro is more attractive looking. Definatly more aggresive looking.
GT Premium w/ track pack cost more than the camaro... cost like 53k
The 2018, but if you get a '15 GT premium with Track Pack it's like 30k.
Clicked on this video and this guy had the biggest smile on his face I felt a warm welcome first time I've felt this on a video
Eduardo Mendoza thanks for the comment. I really appreciate it. I love cars. I'm kind of a Crazy Car guy. and this Camaro was really fun to drive.
Brandon Pierce the mustang GT is better
JynxWarMusic I mean you must love to crash into crowds
I LOVE THIS GUYS REACTION TO THIS CAR!!!!!!!! THIS is how a great car can make you feel. People, if you claim to be a car guy, then take a moment to go test drive the new Camaro. This guy is right, this new chassis is pure magic. Just go drive one.
Thanks man👍
Well, after 6 months of research I agree! I started off wanting a Mustang GT but after seeing and reading all the reviews and comparisons I bought a new 1LE the day my color hit my local dealership. I only have 2k on the odo but this car is amazing! Hands down best sports car under 50k...heck, even more in most cases lol
+LJ & Son's VLOGS thanks for the comment I I have driven the new Ford GT 350 and the new Hellcat and they're both awesome cars. but I got a say for the money the Camaro is just so dang good. I put it real close to the GT350. but a much better value considering it's almost twenty Grand cheaper. congratulations on your car you're a lucky man.👍
Adam Cifonelli if you go look for a GT350 almost all of them are spect out at $60,000 and then they at least want 5000 over for them 49 is base none of the dealers order them at base price. thanks for the comment
Adam Cifonelli they're still have a mark up here where I live. and I never said it was faster than the GT350 but it is a better value.
LJ & Son's VLOGS my question to you is how are the blind spots? Are they bad and if they are did you get used to them? Thinking about test driving/renting an SS for a week out in Cali....trying to choose between that or a C7 Z06 ......
I'd like to see a GT350 with no mark up. 1LE is a far better value and if you put the GT350 against the ZL1, it's real rival, the GT350 gets embarrassed.
I own a 2017 SS 1LE in black. This car is nothing short of spectacular. I prefer this car over my dad's 2014 911 4S. Performance is better than it! And better than a lot of other 100k plus cars. Don't call this hype, this car is for real. You don't need 650hp in the zl1. You get the zl1 but naturally aspirated 450hp. What else do you want!
+Ya Wan Shum thanks for the comment. that's funny that you mention the Porsche I own a 2014 911 Carrera 2 I love that car but you're right I think the 1LE is funner to drive and probably handles better.👍
Ya Wan Shum absolutely true!!!
I drove it and I agree that it's the best for $45k but it's not "And better than a lot of other 100k plus cars. ". I bought a $55k 2017 BASE Corvette and it's way better than the Camaro in terms of agility and handling.
you are absolutely correct about everything you say about this amazing machine. I test drove from San Francisco to San Diego and back OMG the Camaro is pure joy, super fast,agile,superior suspension syatem,superb breaks grip on the corners like Ferrari. I driven the big V8 engine of the mustang and challenger and there is no competition compared to camaro ss you feel that immediately!
+viktor botsev thanks for the comment. yep you're right it's an awesome car. I bet that was a fun drive. the Camaro kicks ass.👍
Brandon I love that car now,and i want to buy it soon that's the goal! I have mustang 2014 and before I always been german car owner just like yourself but the Camaro is so amazing that I can't remember if I have enjoyed and fell in love in car like that before! 36k starting price for 1ss is insane this car in Europe and Russia goes from 80-110k and I'm talking about the 455hp engine not the 650 one insane! You did an amazing job reviewing this superb machine!Thank you!
viktor botsev thanks so much for the compliment I really appreciate it. I really loved the car I'm a total Car Guy. that's crazy how much it costs in Russia. I pick up a BMW in Munich once a year on the European Delivery program. and I found out that I got my car cheaper than the Germans pretty crazy how cheap we get cars here in America. thanks again for watching my review.
Brandon Pierce American cars are an amazing top notch machines especially the last 5 years thr upgrade is more then impressive! I think german cars are very good,classy no doubt but they are also very overpriced and OVERRATED I have driven a lots of German nice,fast cars and I don't get nothing of that amazing feel as it's if compared to driving the absolutely champion the Camaro Super Sport!
I love my 17 SS 1LE. Got mine used with 4K miles on it and a full warranty for 34,500. Nothing else in the price range that can play with the super cars at the race track!
Agreed it's a bad ass car for the money😎👍
Don't think I've ever seen you talk all that positively about domestic let alone gush about one. Love it.
glendayle I couldn't help it. it really was that good.👍
I’m picking up my white 2SS 1LE Tuesday and I can’t wait!
I’m back watching this video haha. I ended up buying the 1LE and I love it. Always a blast to drive and I still look back whenever I park it ha.
@@anthonycordova91 I’m debating between this or a mustang leaning more towards the camaro
I just bought a 2017 SS only 35,000 miles and I absolutely ❤ it!! The power is unbelievable!! The smile factor is a 10!
it's a sports car that you can take the track and race pretty close to a race car.👍
Amazing car, hope to own one someday!
Dan Lee go get you one bro
M3 owner here, and I FREAKN LOVE THIS CAR!!! Hat tip to GM auto engineering!
+David Foerster thanks for the comment. GM definitely deserves props for this car they did a good job. best American Car have ever driven.👍
Which do you like better? More "fun" to drive... This or the M2? Coming from an cam'd, CSL type E46 M3.
I just got the 19 1LE in crush orange and it’s freakin awesome can’t wait to put some mods on it!! It’s great stock but got some plans for it!
I had the privilege of driving an SS 1LE (track package) for 3 days, and I almost cried when I had to give it back. Phenomenal machine, and I want to buy one. I'm in love with it.
+Forrest Metzger thanks for the comment. it is an amazing car for an amazing value. I'm right there with you I loved that car
I just delivered one to a friend.It is absolutely a blast to drive.Crazy handling and great gear box.I have a supercharged c6 grand sport Vette and this car really impressed me.
Thanks for watching my review. The Camaro ss1le is one of the funnest cars in the market especially for the money😎👍
Great review. I placed my order on the weekend for a 2018 SS 1LE in hyper blue metallic, definitely glad I added on the 1LE.
Seeing your reaction I can't wait to take delivery later this year. The engine sound is going to get me in a heap of trouble...
+Rambling Shark TV man that's awesome. you're going to love the 1LE. you'll be so happy that you got it. I love the hyper blue color. thanks for watching my review I really appreciate it.👍
Killer Car + Beautiful Scenery + Excellent Reviewer = Awesome Review.
+theplayernkc Thanks so much you made my day. I really appreciate the comment.👍
I bought a 2021 for 43,100!! I love it.! Just put in the switch for the cooled Recaro seats!!
Nice rob you going to love it 😎👍
Any car that makes a German car guy giddy must be special - will definitely check one out. And what an amazing piece of USA you get to test these cars around. Thanks for the review!
+cglarsen26 thanks for watching my review. I'm glad you liked it. it really is a sweet car.👍
One of the best 1LE reviews Brandon! It speaks volumes that you're a M2 and 911 owner and still love the Camaro SS 1LE. I too have been afflicted with GCSS (German Car Snobbery Syndrome) but the 1LE is calling me! I've resisted a test drive but not sure how long I can hold out!
+peacems thanks so much for the Comment Man. I'm really glad you liked to the review. I am a total German car fan. but the fun factor of the 1LE is just so good. it's so much fun to drive. I'm really impressed with Chevrolet and what they did with the Camaro for the price it's a great car. Thanks again
Review after review I watch I hear the same thing about this car. Not one person has a bad thing to say about the 1LE. Randy Pobst absolutely loved the car on track during his hot lap.
This car will be talked about for years. In the same way people talked about the c5 z06 being the best bang for your buck! Great review man
+Shane Wiggins thanks for the comment. I've owned a lot of sports cars and track cars and the 1LE really impressed me. it's just a fun car to drive that really handles exceptionally well. Thanks for watching my review I appreciate it👍
Got mine 3 months ago "2018" love it only paid 38k they had a big rebate good job on the video
It's nice to see a good Euro convert. The 1LE SS is a spectacular car that I hope to own in the next few years. There is just nothing (Corvette and GT350 aside) that comes close to its performance for less than double the price.
I watch this video like 10 times before I got mines... 2017 1le it's so good!!!!
+Taylor Merino man that's awesome I'm glad you got a 1 l e it's such a badass car. definitely one of my top cars that I drove in 2017 I love that car. thanks for watching my review.👍
My local dealer has a new ss 1le for $39k. $6000 under sticker price. Kinda hard to beat that.
+jaasun71 man that's a lot of car for 39 Grand. I really like that car. thanks for the comment
where is it?
You are funny. I feel the same way about my 2017 1LE. It is as good as you say. I bought one never having driven a Camaro. There is no better value on the market, hands down. I think what I love about it the most is that it is a no BS performer. It has everything that you need for performance on the track and nothing that you don't. Love it. The only drawback is that the sticky tires pick up the stones! Be sure to get some paint protective film.
Fun video!
+backhoebucket thanks for your comment. the 2017 1LE is freaking awesome the car.my car has full paint protection and the mud flap kit so it doesn't flip rocks up at the car. I have had a lot of sports cars and the 1le is definitely one of the best cars made right now thanks again.👍
This guy is awesome! I was just as happy when I got my Camaro. Great job!
I have this car in Hyperblue metallic I don't have the rear rock guards did they come w it or added at dealer? It is the most awesome car I've had in a while and I'm a lifelong Ford Mustang guy actually traded a 15 GT PP and this car blows that one away
And with Costco pricing and discounts I got it for 41k
+Johnny Contreras thanks for the comment. the 1LE is awesome. the last owner of the car put those mud flaps on I'm not sure where he got them I'll do some research and see if I can figure it out. I love the blue your car looks sick.
+Johnny Contreras wow that's an awesome deal
6th gen camaro > s550 mustang...ford needs to up the 5.0 to 5.8
Clinically Insane not sure about that the family of engines are different animals the coyote is a high revving DOHC motor with different characteristics even if the displacement was increased through porting heads the behavior would be the same and the output may reach 475 from ford ... maybe ... but the LT1 is just strong in a way that is very confident and capable and is balanced in the 1LE which to me is it's own car miles and miles ahead of an SS or 2SS
Hey just wanted to say that yesterday I picked up my 2018 1ss 1le in summit white because of you. You really sold that 1le package. Already put 160miles on it. Thanks for the awesome review!
dirtbikerdan that's awesome man enjoy your new car that car really impressed me and I've owned hundreds of cars being a used car dealer. And I love that Camaro. thanks for watching my review 😎👍
I love the 1le!
Brandon, you photographed the car so well that I went and bought a white one. I got a 2017 2SS with mag ride and now plan on buying the 1LE appearance package for it, wheels and tires too. Thanks
+Bran Kind awesome man I really appreciate your comment and I'm stoked for you and your new car you will love it. that's definitely one of the best cars I drove this last year I really enjoyed it👍
That trailer at 16:08 was gorgeously polished
Awesome video! I own a 2017 Mustang GT with performance package for canyon driving fun here in the Lake Tahoe area. As everyone knows, the Mustang GT is not up to the Camaro's level of performance, but I'm an old guy and enjoy it nevertheless. Drive safe!
+ccbusa05 thanks for the comment. there's nothing nothing wrong with a good old GT Mustang. Camaros definitely stepped up their game. I love the GT350 to it's a great car thanks again for watching my video.👍
I'm in the market for a new Camaro next summer. Watching the joy on your face as you drive this beast was great. I just need to pick my color, but the LE 1 is in my future. Drive safe and keep the rubber side down.
Hey man thanks so much. I loved making this review and I really enjoyed the Camaro it's bad ass. if you get a 1le you will love it. one of my favorite cars last year😎👍
wish it came with the heated/ cooled seats, blind spot monitoring and the rear sensors.. the ZL1 comes with all those comforts.
Cali Made yeah that would be cool. I feel like it has everything you need to have fun though and nothing that you don't. and it's a good price. I can forgive those things it's a fun drivers car good enough for me.👍
Cali Made 2ss comes with that stuff to
Liked and subscribed for the simple reason you actually opened it up and did a couple pulls on camera
Tifosielia thanks so much for subscribing and liking the video. I watch UA-cam videos all the time and I'm like you I want to see somebody actually drive the car so I do my best to do that thanks again.👍
Hmm. For $45k maybe Miata but that’s kind of apple vs orange. This is my favorite four seater right now. Great review.
Thanks Michael
It's either going to be this exact build, or the ZL1 in white. You're making it hard to decide! Very nice video - love the great great looks and the car and thorough presentation. Also love your enthusiasm! Keep up the good work. Oh, and jealous of your scenery and roads.
+Justin Opinion thanks a lot man. I love good cars and this new Camaro is definitely a good car. I think I'm going to get the chance to drive the ZL1 here in a week or two I'm excited. it should be pretty awesome but the value of the 1le is is so good it's a hard choice.
Just located a ZL1 about 70 miles from me and contacted the dealer immediately. Heading there this morning, and if all goes according to plan - driving her home! It will be a diversion from my usual content, but I think I might have to do a video or two of it.
I've put up a couple of vids on my ZL1, if you're interested. Don't want to annoy you or your viewers with links and crap like that - you know how to find it if you want it. Thanks again for this very informative, entertaining, and well produced video. One of my favorites.
Justin Opinion yeah for sure I totally want to check it out. all subscribe too if I haven't already.
I owned (5) 4th generation cars and most recently a 2015 SS 1LE and now 2018 SS 1LE. What he says is all true. Car is unreal. What’s crazy is that dealers are selling thousands off sticker. Anyone on the fence..Do it!!!
Best of wishes with your ride. If it puts a smile on your face the minute you sit in it, that is all that matters, enjoy it.
+mukhtiar deo thanks so much for watching my review and I appreciate your comment. the Camaro is just so fun to drive I couldn't help it I really really had a fun time driving it. thanks again👍
I would like 2 👀 the mph while u shifting thru the gears. Very impressive video! This 1 I can't delete! Riding, thru the canyon, is a perfect setting.
Brandon.. your video was the first I watched reviewing the 1LE a little over a year ago. So, the $45,000 I dropped last week ordering a 2019 SS1LE in Satin Steel Gray is mostly your fault ;) Feel free to send me cash and thanks for the enthusiasm and the review.
Timmy thanks for the comment. I'm excited for you and your new Camaro you're going to love it. seriously one of the best cars I drove in 2018.😎👍
I REALLY CAN NOT OVERSTATE how much I really dislike the black hood on all the 1 le cars . something about the shape of the hood where it meets the front clip.. the rounded part... that makes it especially distateful for me. The car is great and i believe you are correct in regards to performance and value but I could not abide the hood. Your probably going to spend a lot on sticky rubber with fast tread wear which is a decent part of why the car handles well and hooks decently.
How do you like the car?
It's so good! lol
Dr. Ashi Ali I know lol I repeated myself way too much. I haven't driven a car this good in a long time
Brandon Pierce - We can all see that you are genuinely enjoying yourself. I showed a few friends who got a kick out of how much you said "It is Sooo Good!!" Loved it.
It's crazy how a 370z nismo cost pretty much the same and this car is so much better
+Adirian Mercedes thanks for the comment. very true and we both know the Camaro 1LE would kill the 370Z on the Nurburgring
Ran my new one 2017 SS 1LE at SCCA PDX at Daytona SCCA club course It definitely is great It is track ready as is,absolutely no prep needed-just go to track-everything stayed cool Big brakes never faded,shifts great, corner weights on the scales as good as many racecars. really puts down power, great lo end torque,,corners,downshifts,great brakes,handles big bump on track and gator curbing Rev matching feature also works really well. I haven't looked at the factory Data recorder video of the day yet. Downside---- I wish it came with seats with slots that could be compatible with 6 point harness like the recaros ford uses for track junkies The trunk opening could be larger. Drives well on both track and street. I am not sure the GT350 including the GT350R is better at all and how well it actually holds up under track demanding conditions. Anyway I was surprised how quick and friendly it is without any mods or prep, probably need to spend almost twice as much $$$$$ to improve on this-great value definitely.
nice video, thank you for sharing
You're welcome thanks for watching😎👍
Hi Brandon. I've got a S550 GT w/performance pack. I rented a boxster s for 3 days while on holiday and fell in love with how FUN it was to drive. Despite it being down on power. Do you think the 1le is just as fun to drive? At low speeds as well as fast speeds? Or do you think the Cayman/boxster is more fun in everyday situations?
awesome car! it's a beast out of the lot. no need for mods! warranty will be present!
John Caves agreed it feels like a race car right from the factory. especially with the warranty a 100000 mile drivetrain warranty pretty awesome. drive it like you stole it.👍
Good review. Been thinking about trading in my 5th gen for this 1LE or a 2SS. Wish the 1LE was available in the 2SS, but it's not. The interior seems better than the 5th gen, quality wise. But I tell ya those Recaro seats look nothing like Recaros. The previous Recaro design was way better. Heck, even the ones in the Mustang are better.
+B Patel thanks for the comment. the current gen 1LE is definitely a step up from the last generation Camaro. I really like the Recaro seats they look good they're very comfortable and they support you well super impressed with them. thanks again I'm glad you liked the review.
Late reply, but they do make a 2SS 1LE now
love the video....love his pure joy and pleasure with the car! That's what it's all about!
+stan harp thanks for the comment and thanks for watching my review. the Camaro really is just that fun to drive. I loved taking it up the canyon that day the car just rips.👍
Just ordered the exact car!
+stan harp oh wow nice. you're going to love that car man. this is coming from a guy that's driven a lot of nice cars and that car is just fun to drive and the handling is exceptional.
I had a 2010 2s ss....loved it...so I can imagine how much better this one will be
stan harp I've been in the older Camaros they are okay. but never really wanted to buy one this new one is something else man. I currently have a Porsche 911 and a BMW M2. and for a fun drive I'd rather get the Camaro!
tremendous review, keep it up brother!
Marcello Graziani thanks so much man I really appreciate the support. I'm glad you liked the review👍
best camaro vid yet
Thanks buddy I appreciate it😎👍
i just hate you couldn't get the 2ss with the 1le until 2018
i think they ruined the front end with 19+ so now i'm stuck looking for 18 only! i'll find one one day
I have a 15 1LE. A fantastic car in its own right. The 17's are something else though. Amazing drivers cars
+SG Carter heck yeah one of the best cars I've ever driven. thanks for watching my video.👍
I'm very interested to see how the 2018 Mustang GT with the MagneRide (same as GT350) suspension/performance package compares, especially since they will be upping power to ~455hp for the 5.0 with new direct+port injection and 12.0:1 compression. Expect the price to be similar for a GT Premium with the MagneRide package (comparable to 1LE).
+J H that sounds cool I totally like the Ford Mustang to it's a sweet car and if they did a performance pack it be a really cool comparison to the Chevy.👍
The smile on your face says it all!!
+Clarence Hill thanks man and thanks for watching my video I couldn't help it I love that car👍
You bought an awesome car. Like you I have a 911. It's a 2011 911 S manual but as great as it is I feel it's too refined. I've been thinking about buying a Camaro 2ss 1le. Would love to hear your thoughts on your 911 vs the 1le. Enjoy!
You forgot to mention and use the no lift shift feature unless I some how missed it
That road is amazing
Cvick14tx thanks for the comment. the canyon is awesome. there's a few sections where no cops can hide so you won't get busted and you can open it up a little bit.👍
I wish they would have offered the 1LE on a 2SS.
bigmixx I couldn't agree more. I ordered my 1LE a few weeks ago. It was a tough decision between the 1LE and a 2SS. I think I'm going to like the 1LE more, but I still wish it came with the 2SS trim.
Jason Paspalis yeah man. It's the only reason I haven't gotten one yet. I can't make up my mind LOL! A 1LE with heated/ventilated seats, blind spot monitor, & dual zone climate would be perfect for me.
And in convertible too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There isn't much the 1LE doesn't come with.
The seats are recaro so that rules out the heat/vent seats, and IMO dual zone is kind of a gimmick. Def not worth the extra money it would cost IMO.
All I want from the 2ss is the HUD. I saw it on the 1le with it at the dealer I may go pick it up
Just bought a 2018 Garnet red 1LE - will have it next week shipping in ...
That's awesome man. you're going to love that car it's just fun the handling in the grip of that car is amazing.👍
1LE Is a nice package I believe you can now get this on the 2ss also
A 1le 2SS would be awesome😎👍
Good review.
Thanks man 😎👍
Thinking of trading in my 2016 Chevy Silverado for an SS. I am not use to the manual shifting. It would suck in Ma traffic.
Thanks for your honest and emotive review, definitely my favourite one. Especially knowing you own an M2. Great camera shots
+Parrot & ladder thanks man that means a lot. I couldn't help it I seriously love that Camaro I couldn't believe how good it handled its just an awesome car and I'm proud of America for finally building some good cars👍
Excuse my ignorance, but what are the differences between the 1LE and the standard SS?
Can you do a review on how much u pay and what’s ur insurance like payment I’m just trying to see if I can afford the payments
Men you are right these car are one of the best made in America
+Maurice Johnson thanks for the comment man. the 1le is an impressive automobile. I've had the opportunity to drive some of the best cars in the world and 45000 that car is amazing thanks for watching my review
I'm a Ford fan and always will be, but after being in a Dodge and Corvette.... The aftermarket support and pricing as a whole ( Interior/Exterior/Performance) just falls into the mustangs favor.
Yet, all of their cars from each make always brings a smile to my face. For me the Mustang was the Best 40,000.... but that's my opinion.... Grab what you like and be happy, but I have to say.... If you're spending this much money on a Generic sports/performance car ( Challenger, Corvette, Mustang, Charger, Camaro...) and not putting it through it's paces on a regular.... that's a damn shame
+Texarmageddon you're going to buy a fast car You better drive it. thanks for the comment and thanks for watching my video. I love the Mustang but I think the Camaro 1le for the money is a little bit better if you want to spend a little bit more I like the GT350. thanks again👍
I really like your enthusiasm man I can tell you really like the car, its like me when I was driving the jaguar Ftype R it was just such an amazing feeling I was speechless. by the way where is that beautiful place you are filming?
+mountain tiger thanks for the comment. and thanks for watching my review. the car is awesome it's just a pleasure to drive. it does exactly what you wanted to do. I'm here in Provo Utah Provo Canyon that I'm driving up.👍
I like this car and hoping to one day buy one, but I dont know if its a good daily driver that won't beat you up daily.
Rudy F I definitely think that I could live with this car on a daily basis I felt like it was still comfortable enough while being an awesome sports car👍
Please check the 2017 camaro zl1 1le . U will love that car. This camaro ss 1le is naturally aspirated v8. But zl1 1le supercharged v8 and looks too sickk
+Erik Zakharyan yes I would love to drive a ZL1 I really want to get my hands on one. especially the zl11le that would be awesome. I'm sure that car is amazing👍
love that car! and I have never had an American car.i'm really considering buying one. I was thinking this or the vette or the jaguar ftype R which I absolutely love I think the Ftype r is one of the most beautiful sports coupe ever made. only thing i'm not loving in the 1le is that rear end, I think they could do a better job making it look more aggressive like the front end which I really like. a little nicer interior materials would be really nice too, but one thing I wish it had was ventilated seats because where I live is really hot and seat ventilation is a very good option to have.
+mountain tiger those are all good cars but I think for the money I definitely would take the Camaro. it drives better than some hundred-thousand-dollar cars for 45 gram. which is why I love it. there's a lot of nice cars but this is one you can live with every day and it doesn't break your bank.
If I was to get a V8 powered Camaro, it would HAVE to be a 1LE.
Anthony Evelyn yes sir that's the way to go the 1LE kicks ass
believe me...this car is amazing. hes 100% right
wait till you have to replace those tires. I wonder how the suede is going to hold up and clean. I was going to get the ZL1 but got a 2016 LTZ SUBURBAN to replace my old one for now, since I have a 600hp 99 SS, BUT I have been considering this car with a procharger
+brianallen0826 yep the tires are expensive but man do they grip good I guess you get what you pay for. as far as the power even without a blower I feel like it was very fast. thanks for the comment.👍
How do you compare this to the e92 M3 with DCT?
That car is funky fresh - I have a Silverado I like and might trade my other car in for this bad daddy
I have the same car, I love it
Arl Luvn thanks for the comment. you are a lucky man sir that is one awesome car.👍
I believe the transmission is a Tremec TR6060, same model from Shelby GT500, Dodge Viper and the 5th gen Camaro.
+B Patel thanks for the comment. that makes sense I love the GT350 transmission to the termec is awesome transmission. it just feel so good so well made
If they put that into the new mustang gts I would get one without a second thought. But the new camaro are turning me to GM
This guy makes me want to buy one
Thanks for watching my video. go by one man you won't be disappointed. it's an awesome Camaro. the best camaro I've ever driven😎👍
I wish I loved my 17’ 2ss m6 as much as this guy . I like it but not this much lol.
+Gen6 2SS lol I really like the 1le
Love this Video thanks
DERRECK153 man thanks so much. comments like this really mean a lot I really appreciate it. thanks for watching the video👍
Hey man fun to watch, I had an M2 on order but cancelled the order now I get my 1LE in a month. How do you compare the 2 given you own an M2?
+Ryan Leclair thanks for the comment. man that's a tough question. the answer is they're both really good cars. I've had the opportunity to have a lot of very high performance cars. I've come to the conclusion that I want the funnest car to drive not necessarily the fastest car. The M2 is precise predictable small little hot rod Coupe with a lot of Technology and I love it. The Camaro feels like you took it to one of the most well-known race shops in the world and they set it up perfect for you to drive fast. I think GM figured out the magic formula with the 1LE pack. I feel really connected to the Camaro it's just so enjoyable to drive and it just does exactly what you want it to. and makes the right sounds it looks good and it feels good. As hard as this is to say because the 1LE is $45,000 I would probably take the Camaro it's just so fun to drive.👍
thanks for the reply, I have always been a BMW guy and I hope I made the right decision, I love everything about the M2 but thought it was time to try a naturally aspirated V8, I don't think you can go wrong with either. I know the BMW name has more prestige but in the end I feel like the Camaro has it all for quite a bit less $. worst case I drive it for a year or 2 and grab an M2 when they put the M4 engine in it
Ryan Leclair are you enjoying your 1le?
I owned a 2015 Corvette for 3 weeks. The GM torque management system ruined the throttle response for me (the throttle response is fine if you mash the throttle but it is not responsive at partial throttle). Can you compare the C7's throttle response to this car's?
+Lava Peter thanks for the comment.👍 I have not driven the 2015 Corvette but the 2017 1Le felt awesome. I did not notice any problems with the throttle. It had great linear power and was just fun to drive.
guess I will have to see for myself..funny enough the M2 and GT350 are other cars I consider replacing my cayman with so I look forward to your comparison of the 2
It's awesome and I love the video you are doing a great job keep it up.👌🏻😍
+Fahad Alanazi thanks man I really appreciate it. stop by the shop anytime if you need any car help or a car. thanks again. it was nice meeting you today.👍
Where do you live? just curious with all the mountains around. Looks beautiful
abin thomas I live in Utah. the mountains are great here. we are lucky we have beautiful Canyons address.👍
wish they left the old school e brake handle in all performance cars.....
+J.R. Elgran I hundred percent agree that's the one thing that I don't like about it is it has the electronic park brake
Did he say this car is good?
LMAO
Does make me want one
Lol I got a little carried away but it really is an awesome car for the money😎👍
This car is better and faster then most $100,000 sport cars
+Marcello Almeida thanks for the comment. I hundred percent agree. it's hard to find a car that has better balance and it's more fun to drive than a 1LE Camaro. thanks again.👍
You forgot the rear diff 3.73's. 5th gens had 3.91's. Trans is a Tremec.
+SG Carter I figured out it was a Tremec. I didn't know they changed the gear a ratio thats cool
Right on friend. I have a 2014 SS and love it but WANT the 1LE ba ba BAD. Where do you live btw?
Daxx Green the 1LE is so badass. I live in Utah and im very lucky we have beautiful roads to do these reviews on. thanks for watching my review.
Right on pal. I've been living in Sheridan, Wyoming and routinely hit the 155 MPH governor on my car. Btw, my 2014 is white!
+Daxx Green that's cool man sounds like you got some good open out there in Wyoming you need to get yourself a 1LE you would love it. it feels so good at speed really like that car. not that there's anything wrong with the 2014 SS great car.👍
Beautiful car exotic muscle!!
awesome review, genuine expression LOL!! Let the feels out!!!
Card Cutter thanks for the comment man. I really appreciate it. I got a little excited. I liked the car lot.👍
How is the 1SS 1LE as a daily driver? Is the front splitter too low to the ground? Is it difficult to get in and out of a driveway?
Oren L thanks for the comment. I only had the car for like 2 weeks I buy and sell cars that's my job. but I loved driving the car and I feel like it'd be a great daily driver. it was good on dips and easy to back in and out
Thank you so much!
+Oren L no problem man thanks for watching my review
Hey... a quick question for you. In the 376 different videos I've tracked down on the 1LE, I have yet to year anyone talk about the sound system. I had a 2010 SS with a Bose system and it was spectacular. How is the sound system in the 1LE? Ample bass? Etc.?
Everybody's having too much fun driving the car to listen to the radio lol. I did crank up the radio I thought it was a really good radio really nice factory system I think you would be happy.😎👍
Tim Robinson I guess everybody was too busy having fun driving it lol. I did Jam the radio it seems like a very good system I was happy with it sounded great.😎
Thanks guys! On a second note.... were you able to get that silly 1-4 split shift thing deleted? That seems incredibly annoying.
Hey now you can get a 2SS 1LE... With all that the only thing you're missing is a supercharger...
The 2ss 1le would be an awesome Camaro. if you want to supercharged you just got to go to the ZL1.😎👍
Great video. Just a small tip: your video sometimes makes me dizzy/sick. Maybe turn a bit more slowly next time, especially when you are focusing on close objects (like the interior).
+snake3276120 thanks for the comment. and thanks for the tip. I am a UA-cam Noob. I will try to get better.👍
Brandon Pierce I just test drove the ss 1le today, it's amazing! definitely gonna get it when my current lease ends! My close friend also got an Me and I drove it. 1LE's suspension is way more comfortable than M2's! GM really put efforts on the MRC.
