Not the fastest? Come on man, how many cars you know under $100k that do sub 4s 0-60? Let's just agree it's great to see someone having fun in an affordable sports car.
The LT1 is the equivalent of the LX 5.0 Mustang in the 1980's. There is something therapeutic about a simpler version of a car, in this day and age of ever increasing complexity.
My son bought one of these,,for the money the best value on the market….proud of him. He worked and saved his money for 5 years and put that money down on his first brand new camaro. Awesome ! If I was 20 and had a brand new Camaro with this kind of power. They’d have to peel me out of the seat!
I got a black Camaro LT1 last year because of this video! I was able to finally get my dream car with this trim level. Thank you so much for this video and introducing me to the LT1. After a year of driving it I love it even more!
Agreed! The car itself is a masterpiece! It just never got the full potential in most people for them really care about it.. kinda sad, as the Camaro is fun, sporty and down right badass! Also being the best in many different aspects... long live the legend.

If you want V8 muscle and not a lot of bling or don’t mind the blind spots, then it’s a good choice. Sad to see it go. Thanks for sharing it Joe. Nice job! Gotta go for now. 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I don't know why, but I actually prefer this front end over the SS. The SS is like too much going on. This one is clean and simple kind of like a Mustang GT front end.
34k and you gotta ask “what car did I buy!” Thank you Joe for this review. I was a huge fan of the 1996 z28 Camaro. I am sad they are discontinuing the Camaro. I agree Joe, competition is necessary for further improvements. Keep giving us these great reviews.
Just got an SS1 2021 in wild cherry with black rims for the same price as the lt1 make sure to go to more then 1 dealer & get the best price you can 👌💯
I drive a Mustang and in the market for a new muscle car. I'm most likely getting a Scat Pack next. I want to like the Camaro as it has similar performance and better handling than the other two, but the visability issues and joke of a trunk really make it a tough choice as a daily driver IMO.
@@chickenmuffin Well for me it would most likely be my only car and just putting groceries in once a week would be tight. If I were to get the Challenger and ever need to transport something bigger than a suitcase, you could. I'm not sure you could even fit a wheel in the Camaro's trunk, while you could probably fit a pair in the Challenger.
Such a sweet ride, it's going to hurt to have to say goodbye again. In this neck of the woods, cloth seats are the way to go. Loving your camera work, Lori. It's not really work if you're having fun. Great review, Joe, as usual. Thanks for all your work to bring your enthusiasm to us all
First off, shout out to the camera woman. Great work. The Lt1 doesn't have all the options of the SS, but still the muscle under the hood. And don't forget about the sound of that pushrod V8. Luvin it!!
Just ordered my 22 LT1 RS Redline! Can’t wait to join the 6.2 club!! Currently have a 19 RS. Thanks for your review, great as always!!!! Love this channel!
You are correct I have seen some recent reviews of the old trailblazer and I’m thinking did Chevy run out of names! The new trailblazer sucks they should have called it more of a Jimmy or blazer and not even bring back the trailblazer name.
@@erikgonzalez2278 The Jimmy or Blazer names are even more of a legend than the Trailblazer. So No. Choose another stupid name Chevrolet, I don't know, 'Snot' or something. At least they didn't call the Blazer a Camaro SS/UV... Like Ford did with their Mustang Mach E. Ever noticed how the Civic, Accord, Fit, Camry, Corolla always stuck to the same type of car and stayed around...
The base LT1 trim makes sense! But the add ons don't. My 1SS MSRP was 41k (38k out the door) and it's a more complete package if going for 40k money: staggered wheels, summer tires, brembo brakes all around, extra cooling and I really like the center gage screen.
Ordered a bone-stock 2023 LT-1 for daughter for “graduation from college” present around Thanksgiving / 2022. .. She drove the same stripped down, 2012 / 6 speed Camaro all through high school & college .. Took delivery in April 2023. ..
I just bought my 2021 LT1 about two weeks ago. A beautiful Satin steel with black racing stripes. The spoiler, side mirrors, emblems and rims are all blacked out. This car is bad ass and can definitely hold its own against some V8’s out there. The sport mode is awesome too. In touring mode, the engine has a quieter sound, but when you throw it in sport mode, it becomes much louder and the pops from the exhaust always brings a smile to your face.
@@erick4325 - Yess! It has three set driving modes. One called Touring, which is basically a driving mode set to save on gas. The other is Sport Mode, which is exactly what it sounds like. It sets the engine in another gear and gives it a more sporty tone to it, with all the downshifting downloaded into it. This mode uses a lot of gas. And then there is the Ice/Snow mode. It's for basically driving around in the snow. I love it! Wouldn't change my decision for nothing in the world.
If you’re getting an lt1 with options it kind of defeats the purpose of it. At that point you might as well get a ss because all of the standard features.
Wow that price point is just amazing, will be surprised if I don't see a ton of these on the road next year! If I had'nt bought my challenger already, this would be for me!
I love this car but given the price of gas these days, I had to go with the 2022 Camaro V6 1LT/RS. I love the RS package with the 20in wheels. I didn’t want all the extra bells and whistles. In 2012, I had a fully loaded 2012 Camaro V6 with the leather interior. I actually prefer cloth. Don’t need the HUD, Bose, or the indoor rainbow lights. I just want to hear the engines soundtrack. And it does go vroom! Oh yea, and it’s a stick!!!
Love the general design and feel of the Camaro! But man does that body kit make the car look even better! Specially around the back, where the defuser is really plain. It makes it look so much better!
Love it when you cover cars like these. I love anything you post even if the car isn’t what I like. I’m sorry if that sounds rude, I’m a big fan so I’ll support no matter what.
Great review, always loved the "budget" muscle cars. I had a stripped out '87 5.0 Mustang LX, my buddy in a heavily optioned GT used to lose every drag race and top end race to me, used to drive him crazy. Low weight = more speed.
The thing about camaros mist people don’t realize is that it feels like a true sports car, how low and wide and visibility you can’t beat for the money. Chargers challengers are nice but big heavy and the Ford’s you sit to high and way to much roll. The chevys are the perfect mix
Gotta love a naturally aspirated push rod V8 with a manual transmission!! Nice on throttle action brother!! And congrats Joe on being over 400k subs! Won't be long until half a million!! 🤙🏻🤙🏻
What's funny is alot of these are being optioned to the same price as the SS(like the one reviewed here). I think alot of people just prefer the styling over the SS.
I can't find one of these reasonably priced in my area. There are very few of them around at all in fact. The ones I can find are at a price point where you may as well step up to the ss, go for a Mustang GT or even a Scatpack on special.
i have a 2019 1ss i have bought this spring. got a bunch of discounts on it paid 35.5k with recaro seats. i dont mind the small trunk space this is my fun car. the blind spots no biggy you just get used to them. i wish i had the better sound system but not willing to pay 6k to get it. i love my ss it is so much fun to drive. the guys who buy the lt1 will have a blast. that was the car i orginally wanted. but there was none i could get in spring of 2020 so i took a brand new 2019 1ss instead at similer price point. very happy with my purchace.
It’s all about that 6-speed manual fun stick. I own one. It’s the best. FU the automatic slush box is a tiny bit faster crowd the 6-speed manual is MAX fun!
@@clemnewton9995 Radar doesn't help. Highway Patrol turns theirs off, spots a car going high velocity, then aims their gun, turns on their system, and by the time your radar picks it up, they already have your speed clocked. Any Highway patrol officer will know that
The 69 camaro in particular, has always been my favorite all time camaro, in fact my all time favorite classic muscle car! It's a very sort after year for the Camaro!
Adjust the mirrors correctly to you and no blind spot problems. I daily drive my 2016 camaro for 4 years now....next one will be an LT1 model for me great performance and looks with the great value
Goodbye camaro 👋🙏 I'm a mustang guy myself but I don't mind the Camaro and i definitely won't be happy to see it's end hopefully they'll come back like they did in 2010 😞
Great review! I bought a black 2020 LT1 with a manual trans and white rally stripes (the only extra option on the car). LOVE IT!!! Got the Chevy employee discount with a $1500 cash rebate. FIRE DEAL for the car. The smile you speak of I get everytime I start this LT1 engine. After a $450 MBRP axle back exhaust was installed the pops, crackles and cold starts are now insane!... in a very very good way!! 😁 Skip shift needs mentioned in this review and the $20 skip shift eliminator that is therefore needed I also necessarily installed. The skip shift is more of a zonk than the tail lights in my opinion but it's a cheap fix and one of only a couple zonks worth mentioning because truly, this is a very fun and powerful performance bargain that brings pure enjoyment and happiness to any willing driver. Enjoyed watching this review. Keep em coming!
I love love love your vid reviews....very informative, without being boring or dry....very entertaining...We get a good sense of what each and every car brings to the table....and what we get for the money.... :)) .....I do have a ???....when you are reviewing a car on the road and go " ON THROTTLE".....have you ever been pulled over and/ or ticketed by the police ???
I just graduated college and got my first job, so I’m living with parents for a few more years until I’m financially set but I want a nice car as a daily driver but not paying 600+ a month... I think I just found it,
@@therealjonnyringo Agree! That is exactly why the 2014 Mustang is the last one I would consider. It was the last one where you can still actually use the backseat and can easily see out of the car.
I always work on forwards I've always been a Ford man but I have to tell you Chevrolet has a better engine in Ford don't have to worry about it blowing big garage in the motor love your video man keep up the good work
It has a V8, and the looks is good, thank you Chevrolet because the most important thing is that this particular one has manual transmission! I really love this one. Wish this one has the LT1 badge though...
I have the exact same car 2021 lt1 this car will not disappoint at all it puts the power down when you need it and dust everything but a SS(it has higher top speed) and hellcats
Great review Joe. GM just started a $279 a month lease on LT1’s. That’s V-6 money and the 6.2 auto gets 16/27 MPG. That should help with the 46% drop in sales. Price sells cars!
I got myself one for christmas 2 days ago in riverside blue metallic with satin black wheels and the front splitter with side rockers make it look killer!! ....has more options than the one in the review...runs amazing and mine does come with an RS badge in the grille and on the back along with the LT1 badges on the side...just wish it had the brembo on the back and the active exhaust...but aftermarket fixes that...if the SS is out of the price range I 100% recommend this car
Awesome deal from Dimmitt Chevrolet...Joe that is a lot Bang for your Buck! Pd No blind spots with that fantastic camera work...the wife has you covered Joe!
My wife has a 2020 10sp and it is so great to drive. The engine/transmission combo feels better than my 2019 C7 8sp and feels just as quick if not a hair quicker. My only complaint is, don't get the base sound system! That was one of the things we immediately had to change out was all the speakers and add an amp. I also recommend getting that suitcase muffler taken off and have them just weld new pipe to the stock tips and it sounds amazing. She loves it since the day we got it and still does. That body kit does look good and I'm pretty sure the active exhaust is standard not an option.
Hats off to Chevy for taking a base Camaro and sticking a V8 in it. Excellent sales tactic.
Far too late. But excellent move
Just bought one today, fast and the most comfortable sports car I’ve ever ridden in. Ride quality is shockingly good
I love when you review cars like this. Not the fastest and most expensive but a sleeper in the middle of the pack.
I was going to like your comment, BUT I saw “69 Likes”. I was like “Nice”

@@danskuy5 Don't need to. Just picked up my 2021 LT1 few weeks ago 😁
Not much of a sleeper. They only make 455.
Maybe it's because I'm not a chevy guy but I really think the front end of the LT1 package looks better than the SS

The LT1 is the equivalent of the LX 5.0 Mustang in the 1980's. There is something therapeutic about a simpler version of a car, in this day and age of ever increasing complexity.
Also the Z28 4th gen Camaro which was the V8 power without spending the extra dough for the SS.

It is a home rum for performance to dollar!
The six speed manual transmission is a Tremec. To get a Tremec in a Mustang you have to step all the way up to the upcoming Mach 1 or a Shelby.
This is true!
Love your reviews, I’m a Camaro guy myself, they should have had this trim in the lineup since 2010!
You are so very right!
Wow that is so kool
As a SS1LE owner, I agree, the cheap/cloth seats/no frills V8 is something a lot of guys look for because mods, I think it would've helped sales.

They're busy trying to sell Trucks, Equinox's, and mom cars. Even the other manufacturers are following that trend. It's lame as hell.

@@clemnewton9995 Radar doesn't help. Highway Patrol turns theirs off, spots a car going high velocity, then aims their gun, turns on their system, and by the time your radar picks it up, they already have your speed clocked. Any Highway patrol officer will know that
Ouch! That sucks!
@@UmAdxXbRo tops out at 155 plus was going downhill
Definitely the best sounding out of its competition
They need to just bring back the 69 Camaro, with updated led lighting and interior, and its game over.
I totally agree with you Jay!
The 69 camaro in particular, has always been my favorite all time camaro, in fact my all time favorite classic muscle car! It's a very sort after year for the Camaro!
they have a deal for this car. 4099 down 229 a month for 39 months. im gonna try to grab one tomorrow after work. nice review!
I was waiting for this one!!!🤩😍🤗Thanks Joe!
Thanks brother for letting me bring it to you!
Adjust the mirrors correctly to you and no blind spot problems. I daily drive my 2016 camaro for 4 years now....next one will be an LT1 model for me great performance and looks with the great value
That is a great point Peter.
Thanks for sharing that info.
so isn’t the LT1 supposed to be quicker/faster than the SS since it’s the same engine but just lighter without the front fascia and cloth seats?
Correct!
Correct.
This car in silver looks incredible!
Evening joe! I’m not a gm fan but this one sure is sharp!
Hey Dale! Thanks for letting me bring it all to you!
Stage 3 cam, full Billy Boat exhaust with X pipe, Roto Fab cold air intake.... perfect for daily driving.
Now we are talking!
I had a car buying project in my career prep class, and the budget was 35K. Guess what I car I chose
LT1😉👍🏻
@@RaitisRides yessir
@@pbscars6320 Good man!
I just bought a LT 1 convertable and love it. Your review are so great. Thks for sharing your passion
Goodbye camaro 👋🙏
I'm a mustang guy myself but I don't mind the Camaro and i definitely won't be happy to see it's end hopefully they'll come back like they did in 2010 😞
Great review! I bought a black 2020 LT1 with a manual trans and white rally stripes (the only extra option on the car). LOVE IT!!! Got the Chevy employee discount with a $1500 cash rebate. FIRE DEAL for the car. The smile you speak of I get everytime I start this LT1 engine. After a $450 MBRP axle back exhaust was installed the pops, crackles and cold starts are now insane!... in a very very good way!! 😁 Skip shift needs mentioned in this review and the $20 skip shift eliminator that is therefore needed I also necessarily installed. The skip shift is more of a zonk than the tail lights in my opinion but it's a cheap fix and one of only a couple zonks worth mentioning because truly, this is a very fun and powerful performance bargain that brings pure enjoyment and happiness to any willing driver. Enjoyed watching this review. Keep em coming!
Thanks for sharing that great input from your ownership Chad!
just rev 1st up a bit more
Chevy nailed it on this one. Everybody don’t need frosting on their cake sometimes.just the cake is enough Sometimes!!👍🏾👍🏾
I am so glad that you like this one.
I HAVE A 2020 CAMARO V6 LOVE IT MILES OF SMILES
Love this car, back to basics.
I am so glad that I can share it with you!
I love love love your vid reviews....very informative, without being boring or dry....very entertaining...We get a good sense of what each and every car brings to the table....and what we get for the money.... :)) .....I do have a ???....when you are reviewing a car on the road and go " ON THROTTLE".....have you ever been pulled over and/ or ticketed by the police ???
That is so awesome of you to say Nikko! I really appreciate you being part of the Raiti's Rides family! Knock on wood...nope. Don't jinx me though.😉
I just graduated college and got my first job, so I’m living with parents for a few more years until I’m financially set but I want a nice car as a daily driver but not paying 600+ a month... I think I just found it,
Congrats on graduating! I am so glad that I can share this one with you!
I just recently got a riverside blue with black rims 2021 camaro it is a V6 but it gets me where I need to go and it is a beauty super fun to drive
Idk how anyone at gm thought the visibility was okay. This has been going on for how long they still don't get it right big con
I feel your pain.
If you have two eyes, and actually pay attention to your surroundings you'll be just fine. Its not a work van, jesus. Its a sports car.
@@therealjonnyringo But you could see out of every Camaro from 1967 to 2002 and those were sports cars too!
I test drove the mustang GT, its no better honestly. I drive an LT1, got the small rectangular blind spot mirrors and have NO trouble with this.
@@therealjonnyringo Agree! That is exactly why the 2014 Mustang is the last one I would consider. It was the last one where you can still actually use the backseat and can easily see out of the car.
I always work on forwards I've always been a Ford man but I have to tell you Chevrolet has a better engine in Ford don't have to worry about it blowing big garage in the motor love your video man keep up the good work
It has a V8, and the looks is good, thank you Chevrolet because the most important thing is that this particular one has manual transmission! I really love this one. Wish this one has the LT1 badge though...
Thanks for letting me share this one with you!
Joen you're 100% right about the competition discussion it only helps us
Great bang for the buck! One way to deal with the blind spots....ON THROTTLE!
I love the way that you think Robert!
I have the exact same car 2021 lt1 this car will not disappoint at all it puts the power down when you need it and dust everything but a SS(it has higher top speed) and hellcats
Just tune it and get rid of the top speed limiter
Well-equipped, with Recaro seats, at just a shade over $40k
A true black stallion
You are so very right!
It’s just like the Z28 trim was. The V8 power without spending the extra money.
Great review Joe. GM just started a $279 a month lease on LT1’s. That’s V-6 money and the 6.2 auto gets 16/27 MPG. That should help with the 46% drop in sales. Price sells cars!
I love manual v8's but I've never liked these "2000" camaros. The last one I fell in love with was the '68.
I can understand Omar:
I had a 2010 2SS. Loved it but they've gotten way too expensive for the average guy. The SS should never come close to 50k but it does.
@@markusfilmore7295 the 2SS does not the 1SS.
The best car review i have seen.
Love this camaro, my friend actually owns it and I have to say it’s very impressive
Big zonk for me is when dealerships forget to option in the power sunroof
That is a good point.
But it’s a budget car, doesn’t need it. Hell I never use the sunroof in my car.
Still love my Mustang
I got myself one for christmas 2 days ago in riverside blue metallic with satin black wheels and the front splitter with side rockers make it look killer!! ....has more options than the one in the review...runs amazing and mine does come with an RS badge in the grille and on the back along with the LT1 badges on the side...just wish it had the brembo on the back and the active exhaust...but aftermarket fixes that...if the SS is out of the price range I 100% recommend this car
Every time you do a review on a car, I want to get it lol 😂
Awesome deal from Dimmitt Chevrolet...Joe that is a lot Bang for your Buck! Pd No blind spots with that fantastic camera work...the wife has you covered Joe!
Thanks Rico for your awesome message. Thanks for being so amazing and supportive.
This is the best bang for the buck
AGREED!
@@RaitisRides makes me wanna trade in the V 😱
My wife has a 2020 10sp and it is so great to drive. The engine/transmission combo feels better than my 2019 C7 8sp and feels just as quick if not a hair quicker. My only complaint is, don't get the base sound system! That was one of the things we immediately had to change out was all the speakers and add an amp. I also recommend getting that suitcase muffler taken off and have them just weld new pipe to the stock tips and it sounds amazing. She loves it since the day we got it and still does.
That body kit does look good and I'm pretty sure the active exhaust is standard not an option.
Thanks for sharing that great input from your ownership Travis!
