In terms of visual point of view, I love this car i mean the side panels and the bodykit as well as the front splitter just makes this car look so aggressive. thats probably my favorite part about this car.
#4 in my opinion is a good thing. Imagine this: you pull up to a red light right next to an m series/ Porsche or another big name brand car. You begin taunting it wanting to race to the next light and the owner and all the cars around you think you're being stupid and are going to get embarrassed but as soon as the light turns green your Z28 launches like a freaking rocket leaving the other car in the dust. The smile on your face and the feeling would be priceless!
Jose Gomez well Z/28 is not a straight line monster! so for me i take ZL1 or better yet Chevy SS yes that ugly Malibu look alike bitch! but if you want sleeper you better go to the extreme. but i like class a little bit so i go with M5.
Jose Gomez well, if someone knows enough to buy an M series BMW, I'm sure they'd know about a z28 Camaro so yeah lol unless if it's some rich person who leased it and knows nothing about cars. Lol
MotorTrend has a long term test vehicle, the z/28, they said its not that bad in the rain, the guy who reviewed it has been driving it for a year as his DD. If you want a serious drivers car, you can't go wrong with this.
+xJet321Xx yup this car is purely driver and track oriented. and of course if you have 75g's burning a hole in your pocket I would definitely recommend you pick one up.
The moment anyone sees you pull up in a Z28, there gonna know its no base model Camaro! That's like saying there are people that are gonna mistake your m3 for a base model 3 series
As always great video guys! A buddy I work with, his father owns one and let me drive it and I have to agree with you. There are hardly any downsides to the car! The pros outweigh the cons by an enormous amount!
So sick of people saying its a terrible daily driver (not talking about the video). Its a TRACK FOCUSED CAR meaning the designing and engineering that went into this car was for MAINLY TRACK PURPOSES, hell it doesn't even come with AC. Am I the only one who takes this into consideration? And the Hellcats can't even be compared to this. Different power range, characteristics, handling, weight, etc.... but then again, this is UA-cam.
+LonestarState12 No you're not the only one who takes that into consideration. Like honestly if you want a track based car (like you stated) then go with the Z28, but if you want a car that's more practical to drive everyday, yet still be good on the track there's always the ZL1. But seriously I'm surprised more people don't understand this ...
TrapBird (Camaro Girl) Exactly! But some people love to point out the negatives and bash it to hell instead of sticking to why it was built in the first place. It's like taking a Chevy a Aveo the drag strip and getting disappointed because of the slow performance, or buying a Hummer then complaining it gets terrible gas mileage. Really? I'm sure neither of those vehicles were built either of those reasons lol
i have sat in it. i think the z28 interior is nice for its design. The biggest thing is thats THEIR dislikes. I feel they nitpick more than they should and the fact they are beginning to be pathetic at whats good vs bad.
Haha in Germany you would get much more attention with a Camaro, than with a Porsche. Here in Berlin almost everybody drives a Porsche and no one would look at Porsche unless it's a turbo s or a gt3 ;)
What a shit review. The Z28 is a fucking killer car. You guys completely missed the point of it. I have a 1LE, which is also not "practical" and has bad tires in the rain and cold but so what, it's an amazing car. And dissing the Camaro as a name brand? Get the fuck out of here. Camaro has more pedigree than 99% of the performance cars out there.
+SG Carter It's not a review, it's a video onwhat they don't like about the Z28. They made a video on why they love it too, but i guess you're incapable of finding it? Seeing as you can't even bare to hear anything negative about your beloved car
Great review to many haters. BUT I’m glad you guys laugh at them because no matter what us keyboard warriors say...you are still the one getting to drive the best cars
I agree with allot of what you said except one thing, the brand name thing this whole made up rule that unless it's imported it's not brand name to me that's total BS it's a Z/28 everyone knows what a Z/28 is it's not the first one they made so saying you won't have brand recognition is false it's a Chevy Camaro Z/28 last time I checked Chevy was a brand.
Yes, people who are familiar with the car world know this but the average person would see a z28 with the Chevy emblem and think it's a normal Camaro, but if they see a bmw or a Porsche they automatically think it's super expensive and super fast. I honestly would take a z28 over an m3 any day but if I ask my non car fanatic friends to choose one they all would say m3 just because of the bmw logo.
Jose Gomez I'd chose the M3 because of how well-rounded it is. It's comfortable, spacious, great quality in terms of interior noise and lack of n.h.v, quick, perfectly balanced, handles extremely well, easy to drive and gets decent fuel economy. It's expensive and not easy to work on, but that's expected and you get what you pay for. Top Gear and a lot of other car reviewers like Car and Driver say the M3 and M5 are the most well-rounded cars in the world. I've never owned one but a friend owned an E46 and I'd have to agree based on my experience in that car. Another friend has a Mustang V6 Performance Pack 6M with a few mods like intake, headers/exhaust, tune, Eibach suspension kit, adjustable panhard rod and so on, and even being 10 years newer and a fantastic performing car for the money, it's not as good. I know the Mustang isn't trying to compete with an M3 but still, 10 years old vs brand new and the M3 still performs like a world-class car. I hope one day I can own an E90 M3 6M or E39 M5, those are true enthusiast cars in my opinion. There are others but those are my favorites.
One main downside in my opinion would be the back seats. Literally USELESS. nobody can sit in the back anyways (especially if youre ripping through the track in it). Having the front passenger seat is good enough. Just get rid of the back seat and save weight. :) Overall, one GORGEOUS car, this Z28.
"For a normal person"- "You're not getting brand name recognition"-- the news is fellas, the folks that buy these are NOT normal car buyers (i.e. the cookie cutter type) and they could care less about brand name stuff. Keep the reviews and comments relative. May as well review a Ferrari and talk about how expensive is to maintain it- the dude that owns it could care less.
If you have 75000 dollars for a car new tires shouldn't be an issue lol obvi the interior is basic its a street legal track car they did all this to reduce weight.
Just hope at 70K this car can sustain reliability, definitely want one! Or a ZL1 :) I drive an 01 Integra atm as a daily, but I want to get something nice for the summers and I've always had a place in my heart for both Imports and American muscle. I live in Canada so straight line speeds is not what I need, our roads are utter dung.
+NaVVlogZ this car is waaaayyyyy too low to use on most of both the US and canada's shitty road system. hell the base V6 camaro is too low to use in most of the US
Salvador Sandoval Lol I know! I saw one in person and thought to myself I'd rather not have to worry about all the scratches and dents it'll get. Our roads just get worse every season -__- It's no wonder SUV's and pickups are becoming more common here it's not just because of the snow anymore. Putting winter tires on my car helped a lot by raising the height by about 2 inches.
these things are more popular when they are imported to other countries that's what you didn't mention just like how the imported cars u mentioned are popular here
What you mean there's no name behind it.... The camaro dominated in the Trans Am series back in the day and is a huge house hold name in America against shitty mustangs. The z28 was always there best package too. I want this car for everything
You're not getting name brand recognition? What the fuck? It's a Z28 Camaro, one of the staples of American car history. Car history in general. Even later in the video you jokingly said something about "it's a Z28, unless someone convinced you, you know what this car is." Love the videos man, don't usually comment on em, but I disagree with that point.
1. Good thing tires are easily changed out. Put some all season tires on it and you're good to go on the street. Maybe you lose some grip but with 305s on all corners you'll still have more grip than you could ever use even street racing 2. I don't mind a simple interior. If your car can't keep you entertained without all the fancy features than you don't need more features you need a better car lol 3. Visibility may be an issue, but it's not a Z/28 specific issue, so I don't count it against this car 4. If I were a douchey company vice president out at the club then yeah, I might prefer the Porsche name. Me, I think people look like huge jackasses when they buy a car mainly to brag about the name. That screams "you're an attention whore, not a car guy". Now if you say "I've got a 2014/2015 Z/28" some people might say "oh, cool" and not know anything about it except it's a Camaro, but when you run into the people who DO know what it is trust me, they'll be 5 times more impressed/intrigued than if you said you had a run of the mill Porsche. I'd much rather brag about owning this Z if I were in a situation to brag about my car
I LOVE your reviews. I live in Las Vegas & we just had conventions for MB, BMW & GM. They had the 2016 Camaro~ it's got that active suspension from the 'Vette on the SS model & the a/c vents are in a better place!
It's an amazing car... We gave ours 630hp... Beat anything below a radical in Sebring (in palm beach, it beat a 12c, GTR, and 458, one that looked like a gt3 or gt2 car... woo)... yeah... that...
OK I wouldn't normally post on a vid like this, but these guys are so far off base, it's criminal. All 4 of your drawbacks are invalid. 1 No "Strictly Performance" vehicle is ever going to be even remotely street worthy. It's practically a full blown race car, and it's so fast and powerful, it almost shouldn't be street legal. 2 ALL of the 5th Gen Camaros have shitty visibility. But again, it's almost a full blown race car. You have enough side and rear visibility to see the guy you're beating. And who cares about a stripped interior?! It's not a road trip car! It's not a daily driver!! 3 Who gives a damn what name you're getting for what price? It's a balls-out track fighter! 4 Who the hell gives a shit what some Non-car guy idiot thinks? You don't buy a high performance car to show off to everybody. You buy it because YOU want to. If any of these 4 "Downsides" cross anybody's mind, then they need to stay the hell away from performance cars altogether. Just go out and buy your Prius with your Pussy automatic transmission and your useless technological crap. Honestly, who the hell gave these two jackasses the credentials and credibility to do this video? They obviously have no idea what in the fuck they're talking about. I'm surprised they weren't crying about fuel mileage and the fact that you have to buy premium high octane gas. I bet these idiots filled up with 85 or 87 octane cause they're obviously too stupid to know better, even if you told them. 100% FAILURE!
Name...prestige...fortunately most drivers today in a certain price category are filtered out when it comes to track focused cars and function. So the enthusiast who really know cars know what they are getting and it does not come in an automatic thank goodness!
If you're focused on interior go to Mercedes Benz then...back in the day they would've sold you a vinyl interior with wind up windows. This isn't aimed at anything towards them cause they had to nit pick haha.
I'd just get some decent aftermarket wheels and "normal" tires. But i agree, having a performance car from a more "normal" company is never as impressive to your friends then something like a Porsche. Our RX-8, which is a beast in person, really doesn't impress anyone who has never heard of it or seen it. To them, it's just a Mazda.
I like the car. People need to get their panties out of a bunch. The cowl is in your face because it is a muscle car. Stop whining about visibility. If the roof line were high, it would not corner. Put your maxi pads on and go buy a front wheel drive suv (station wagon)!
Vlad Mitrofan When it comes out, probably, seeing how it'll be the first Type R to be sold here. I want to see reviews of the new Honda/Acura NSX, looks like it'll be a competitor to the new Ford GT, same as the Type R to the Focus RS.
Muscle cars are not supposed to have all the amenities. It's a muscle car. I would be happy with a street legal COPO Camaro with AC. I don't need a radio,power whatever, leather seats or navigation. All that is unnecessary weight.
In Kansas you can get your learners permit at 14 and if you take drivers Ed you can get a age restricted license at 15 which allows you to drive to school and work by yourself.
+Sandro contrary to popular belief most bmw's are pretty reliable cars, but the owners are the complete fucktards that don't do regular maintenance. they just hop in, drive, and wait for something to break.
Very different car. Either hellcat would get destroyed by the Z28 around a track (which is what the Z28 is designed for). Yes in a straight line the Z28 would lose badly.
on the track it loses, but it's in the same pricecategory right? and it has an extra 150bhp over the Z28. More burnouts and fun I guess and better straight line performance.
saxaza97 i sure fucking hope so bro. This car in no means was to compare to the Hellcat. Nothing is. Chevy lately has not been worrying about power, rather they have been putting time into the track. The Z28 and the Hellcat are 2 different worlds man. The new ZL1 might be a competitor though.
***** seems though like we're having the impopular opinion here though mate. But if I had to choose between the hellcat and the z28 I would take the hellcat 10 times outta 10. But then again, I've never been at a track :)
saxaza97 if i had to choose between them, i would take the hellcat too. I love the Hellcat. Such a machine. But they are not to be compared. Polar opposite meaning to the cars
After the first comment I stopped watching this... Who cares if the tires are bad in the rain, you don't drive a 70k car in the rain anyways, no one needs rust on a fancy car. I keep my camaro in during any rain, every I know who owns a fancy car does the same.
The Camaro in general is the least comfortable car I have ever been in (not Z28 but a basic V6 with 20 inch rims) the visibility sucks, the extensive use of black makes the interior unbelievably hot, the ride (with stock wheels and tires) shot every movement into my spine. Also I hit my head many times getting in and out, and I'm only 5'6", and you have to bend your arm in a new direction to reach the seatbelt if the seat is in my position.
Salvador Sandoval yep true too, but who drive on street like on a trsck ? Except we germans on autobahn, but even there a more comfortable ride is muuch better. So these Hellcats are the real deal for us ! The new Mustang GT350 is another useless uncomfortable thing. I wait for the new Camaro which seems very nice.
Reason #5 should've been the weight. The car is very heavy. You world think with newer technology the car would be lighter. The car looks heavy as well. The car needs to go on a serious diet.
I my onpinion there are only two downsides of Z28 It is heavy and bit ugly! I am not in love with american cars but i rather have this over 458 italia or huracan or 650s or Honda nsx!
So the car is Meant to look basic? Yeah pass. Ugly interior for 70k+ I'd rather buy a c63 amg or 370z w/ mods Talking about downsides it's a Chevy... The car is a downside lol
What you mean there's no name behind it.... The camaro dominated in the Trans Am series back in the day and is a huge house hold name in America against shitty mustangs. The z28 was always there best package too. I want this car for everything
In terms of visual point of view, I love this car i mean the side panels and the bodykit as well as the front splitter just makes this car look so aggressive. thats probably my favorite part about this car.
#4 in my opinion is a good thing. Imagine this: you pull up to a red light right next to an m series/ Porsche or another big name brand car.

The smile on your face and the feeling would be priceless!
Jose Gomez Yep same theory as a sleeper. The look on their face will be priceless!
Jose Gomez well Z/28 is not a straight line monster! so for me i take ZL1 or better yet Chevy SS yes that ugly Malibu look alike bitch! but if you want sleeper you better go to the extreme. but i like class a little bit so i go with M5.
Z28 is not meant for drag racing. It's meant to eat tight corners for breakfast.
Jose Gomez well, if someone knows enough to buy an M series BMW, I'm sure they'd know about a z28 Camaro so yeah lol unless if it's some rich person who leased it and knows nothing about cars. Lol
Jose Gomez Unless it's raining... or cold... or really cloudy.
MotorTrend has a long term test vehicle, the z/28, they said its not that bad in the rain, the guy who reviewed it has been driving it for a year as his DD. If you want a serious drivers car, you can't go wrong with this.
+xJet321Xx yup this car is purely driver and track oriented. and of course if you have 75g's burning a hole in your pocket I would definitely recommend you pick one up.
The moment anyone sees you pull up in a Z28, there gonna know its no base model Camaro! That's like saying there are people that are gonna mistake your m3 for a base model 3 series
This comment is dumb as hell! The Average non car person can’t tell a 3 series from an M3
Vehicle Virgin because they are Virgins!!!
As always great video guys! A buddy I work with, his father owns one and let me drive it and I have to agree with you. There are hardly any downsides to the car! The pros outweigh the cons by an enormous amount!
The Camaro won't break down every week though lol, it's well worth $76k +
LS7 was the most unreliable out all the LS engines having early head problems my guy .
@@alexalvarado1439 Just an excuse to do heads and cam lol
@@noltec420 definitely 😂
So sick of people saying its a terrible daily driver (not talking about the video). Its a TRACK FOCUSED CAR meaning the designing and engineering that went into this car was for MAINLY TRACK PURPOSES, hell it doesn't even come with AC. Am I the only one who takes this into consideration? And the Hellcats can't even be compared to this. Different power range, characteristics, handling, weight, etc.... but then again, this is UA-cam.
+LonestarState12 No you're not the only one who takes that into consideration. Like honestly if you want a track based car (like you stated) then go with the Z28, but if you want a car that's more practical to drive everyday, yet still be good on the track there's always the ZL1. But seriously I'm surprised more people don't understand this ...
TrapBird (Camaro Girl) Exactly! But some people love to point out the negatives and bash it to hell instead of sticking to why it was built in the first place. It's like taking a Chevy a Aveo the drag strip and getting disappointed because of the slow performance, or buying a Hummer then complaining it gets terrible gas mileage. Really? I'm sure neither of those vehicles were built either of those reasons lol
LonestarState12 Agreed, but it's like you said this is UA-cam and people on here just like to look up videos and then complain about the video ... lol
Could not have said it any better myself
The second downside is bullshit in my opinion. Would you say the same about a 911 GT3?
a gt3 is still comfortable
+Mehmet Can no lol that thing is track based too, although it does have luxuries in there
i have sat in it. i think the z28 interior is nice for its design. The biggest thing is thats THEIR dislikes. I feel they nitpick more than they should and the fact they are beginning to be pathetic at whats good vs bad.

Are you guys drive in right side or left side on the road?
#4 wouldn't even apply to me if I had this car...Seeing this car where I live would be like a miracle, and I'm 100% sure that it would turn heads.

The car looks stunning
Uhhh soft compounds are better for the cold.....has nothing to do with the soft compound. has to do with the carcass of the tire
chevy did sell all 1,100 in like 4 days.
track focused car with enough shit to make it road legal thats it....

Vehicle Virgins virgins you should do a review on the 2015 srt challenger hellcat that's my favorite car of all time
Can't drive it all the rain and winter ? Why not change the tires with ones that you can use on a daily bassis ? And keep these ones for the track.
Z28, 75,000 is to much when you can have a Z06 for 80,000.
If I own one, I'm sure I can afford steelies and normal tires.
If you have 75000 dollars for a car new tires shouldn't be an issue lol obvi the interior is basic its a street legal track car they did all this to reduce weight.

Yes 👍🏻
When designing the greenhouse for the new Camaro, GM consulted actual tank blueprints for ideas on how to make the smallest window slits possible.
It's about time to start searching for a used Z/28. It will certainly be more affordable now. lol
Of course the insurance will be obnoxious
Can you make a video of a Ferrari testarossa that is my favorite car and I have seen any good videos of it
You're not getting name brand recognition? What the fuck? It's a Z28 Camaro, one of the staples of American car history. Car history in general. Even later in the video you jokingly said something about "it's a Z28, unless someone convinced you, you know what this car is."
Love the videos man, don't usually comment on em, but I disagree with that point.
I assume cheaper service with this car though ?
I would definitely put some good street tires on this beast and swap them out for the track.
1. Good thing tires are easily changed out. Put some all season tires on it and you're good to go on the street. Maybe you lose some grip but with 305s on all corners you'll still have more grip than you could ever use even street racing

I'd much rather brag about owning this Z if I were in a situation to brag about my car
At the end of the day your paying almost 6 figures for a Camaro LOL
They said they don't care about the brand name, they were just trying to make a con that some people have have with the car.
You are very wise.
Can u please make a video like a great and fast used car under 20,000$
or you could change the tires.
Frs or BRZ. It doesn't really mater to me.
What about the air conditioning
the engineers need to come up with a new better looking design. tbh for 77k the jag f type is mine
They forgot that the Z-28 is heavy.
the Camaro has horrible visibility. I looked at one in the dealership but it was too cramped and you could barely see out of the windshield
I LOVE your reviews. I live in Las Vegas & we just had conventions for MB, BMW & GM. They had the 2016 Camaro~ it's got that active suspension from the 'Vette on the SS model & the a/c vents are in a better place!

Honestly, who the hell gave these two jackasses the credentials and credibility to do this video? They obviously have no idea what in the fuck they're talking about.
I'm surprised they weren't crying about fuel mileage and the fact that you have to buy premium high octane gas.
I bet these idiots filled up with 85 or 87 octane cause they're obviously too stupid to know better, even if you told them.
100% FAILURE!
GT350 solves all of these downsides
Name...prestige...fortunately most drivers today in a certain price category are filtered out when it comes to track focused cars and function. So the enthusiast who really know cars know what they are getting and it does not come in an automatic thank goodness!
the Z28.....the legendary gen V
If you're focused on interior go to Mercedes Benz then...back in the day they would've sold you a vinyl interior with wind up windows. This isn't aimed at anything towards them cause they had to nit pick haha.
I'd just get some decent aftermarket wheels and "normal" tires. But i agree, having a performance car from a more "normal" company is never as impressive to your friends then something like a Porsche. Our RX-8, which is a beast in person, really doesn't impress anyone who has never heard of it or seen it. To them, it's just a Mazda.
No rs headlights on it?
weight reduction bro
Now you're speaking my language
I like the car. People need to get their panties out of a bunch. The cowl is in your face because it is a muscle car. Stop whining about visibility. If the roof line were high, it would not corner. Put your maxi pads on and go buy a front wheel drive suv (station wagon)!
Vehicle virgins so u think it gonna to be a 2019 z28
Would much rather have a GT350R or GT500
Will you review the new Honda Civic Type R ?
Vlad Mitrofan When it comes out, probably, seeing how it'll be the first Type R to be sold here.
I want to see reviews of the new Honda/Acura NSX, looks like it'll be a competitor to the new Ford GT, same as the Type R to the Focus RS.
the new audi r8 will tear up the track on mt. ii heard it is very good with acceleration. i woukd like to see it verse the mclaren 570s
The roof is too low ...looks squished down ....
Drive A s2000 and u will say fuck this tank.lol
Anthony Smith Because everyone has 76k to spend on a car.

Just keep talking its funny to see how stupid you are.
The biggest problem with the Z/28 is the C6 Z06.
Same motor, a lot cheaper now, and about 2 obese people smaller with more visibility.
no down sides to the z28 I love it wouldn't have anything eles
There’s no down sides tf
That's why you just get a ZL1
whoa it's jackie chan!
Idgaf if other people think my car is cheap, i care about making myself and the people i love happy
Muscle cars are not supposed to have all the amenities. It's a muscle car. I would be happy with a street legal COPO Camaro with AC. I don't need a radio,power whatever, leather seats or navigation. All that is unnecessary weight.
Dats a true muscle man!👊🏼you must be a wrestler
M3 e92 or this camero?
Alonzo Gonzalez they'd say N3 cause they have a boner that never goes down for it
+Quietbut_Deadly o9o
Camaro Z/28
doesn't care about prestige; wears Vineyard Vines lol just breaking ur balls, guys :)
I accidentally broke an interior piece off of the one at the auto show lol
i like #4
Ahmm. What is the current driving age in America now? 14?
+Louie Lamoore 16, but aaaayyyy who gives a fuck... lol
In Kansas you can get your learners permit at 14 and if you take drivers Ed you can get a age restricted license at 15 which allows you to drive to school and work by yourself.
Has your e39 been reliable?
+Sandro contrary to popular belief most bmw's are pretty reliable cars, but the owners are the complete fucktards that don't do regular maintenance. they just hop in, drive, and wait for something to break.
+Sandro I got a nice e39 V8 beast and it has been very reliable so far.. BMW is a good brand if u dont batter them like most people do.
Jesus these guys are dorks. Go back to playing video games.
Nice Skagen watch. I just got one too
They should've mentioned the hellcat which smokes this thing.
Very different car. Either hellcat would get destroyed by the Z28 around a track (which is what the Z28 is designed for). Yes in a straight line the Z28 would lose badly.
on the track it loses, but it's in the same pricecategory right? and it has an extra 150bhp over the Z28. More burnouts and fun I guess and better straight line performance.
saxaza97 i sure fucking hope so bro. This car in no means was to compare to the Hellcat. Nothing is. Chevy lately has not been worrying about power, rather they have been putting time into the track. The Z28 and the Hellcat are 2 different worlds man. The new ZL1 might be a competitor though.
***** seems though like we're having the impopular opinion here though mate. But if I had to choose between the hellcat and the z28 I would take the hellcat 10 times outta 10. But then again, I've never been at a track :)
saxaza97 if i had to choose between them, i would take the hellcat too. I love the Hellcat. Such a machine. But they are not to be compared. Polar opposite meaning to the cars
After the first comment I stopped watching this... Who cares if the tires are bad in the rain, you don't drive a 70k car in the rain anyways, no one needs rust on a fancy car. I keep my camaro in during any rain, every I know who owns a fancy car does the same.
The Camaro in general is the least comfortable car I have ever been in (not Z28 but a basic V6 with 20 inch rims) the visibility sucks, the extensive use of black makes the interior unbelievably hot, the ride (with stock wheels and tires) shot every movement into my spine. Also I hit my head many times getting in and out, and I'm only 5'6", and you have to bend your arm in a new direction to reach the seatbelt if the seat is in my position.
do u ever stop complaining
You pay 76k to service a m4 dude everyone buys bmw because the name there are much better American alternatives or anything else
I would rather have the f body z28.
Camaro is not brand name Haha? American muscle is #1
indeed a Dodge Hellcat smoke that thing with ease and with an interior which is far better and 4 seats; fully all day driveable.
+kubanskiloewe true, but only in a straight line. the hellcat series of cars are basically designed to burn tires and maybe take a few turns.
Salvador Sandoval
yep true too, but who drive on street like on a trsck ? Except we germans on autobahn, but even there a more comfortable ride is muuch better. So these Hellcats are the real deal for us !
The new Mustang GT350 is another useless uncomfortable thing.
I wait for the new Camaro which seems very nice.
Wit that car ….! Surly you can buy tires for none summer months!
Problem solve! 😳
I'd rather just get a 2ss
0-60 in 4 seconds? That's slower than a coyote which has about 85 less horses.. 505HP out of a 7.0 engine? Chevy fails once again lmao
dude what the hell happened to the camaro it useto be a bad ass muscle car now its just a sports car pisses me off
Nick 123 for drag racing i got a zl1 pulled the moter out and put an lsx 454
Reason #5 should've been the weight. The car is very heavy. You world think with newer technology the car would be lighter. The car looks heavy as well. The car needs to go on a serious diet.
Well at 3,850 pounds it is lighter than the 2020 zl1 sooo 🤔
I laugh at most not all but most foren cars not all maby half and half
I my onpinion there are only two downsides of Z28
It is heavy and bit ugly!
I am not in love with american cars but i rather have this over 458 italia or huracan or 650s or Honda nsx!
Nice! It's cool to see you give it a fair chance.
It is also worth noting that the 427 cubic inch (7 liter) V8 powers the Hennesy Venom GT.
Last gen Camaro looked better...
Ok kids,go buy a Honda and leave the real car for real men.
amaerican muscle is horirble get a italian or a german
So the car is Meant to look basic? Yeah pass. Ugly interior for 70k+ I'd rather buy a c63 amg or 370z w/ mods Talking about downsides it's a Chevy... The car is a downside lol
Crap review for a number of reasons.
I will buy an m4 instead of this
What you mean there's no name behind it.... The camaro dominated in the Trans Am series back in the day and is a huge house hold name in America against shitty mustangs. The z28 was always there best package too. I want this car for everything
