- How seriously did Chevrolet take the fifth generation Camaro Z/28? Well, it equipped it with a 7.0-litre LS7 V8 and used the Porsche 911 GT3 as a handling yardstick. Reason enough for Dan P to get up at dawn and take it to South Wales...

That’s my favorite modern Camaro. I’ve driven a real 1969 Z-28 and this car is a great tribute to it.
If you ask me this car is a great tribute to the 1969 zl1.. 427 from the corvette 😂
This is the car that changed my mind on the Camaro as a car.
This car do donuts around BMW. Rape BMW'S in track and way more reliable than BMW
Shift Gears hey you inbred fuckhead, i was praising the camaro. Learn how to read. And you couldnt even afford a bmw why are you hating?
BMW are for poor plebeians.
Topper Harley you have a Shelby logo on your profile.. you quite literally drive a piece of shit. Your opinion on anything is truly irrelevant
Topper Harley oh you drive a NEON HAHAHA talk about driving an actual piece of dogshit
“Brilliant” with the Z and not zed. Thank you from America!!
Can you start saying Jaguar properly now?

These rise and drive videos are surprisingly inspirational, I’ve started setting my alarm Sunday mornings to go for a drive !
Jordan Moreira my alarm has always been set👍
Jordan Moreira what were you doing before? Lol
talentedmangina being lazy lol
Toss on a top end, cam, and long tube headers. 600 to the wheels, still NA, and sounds like sex. Perfection.

When the Z28 was introduced here in the states, in 1969, it came with a little 302 cid engine that reved to the moon. For the late 60's, its handling capabilities was ahead of its time. In American cars anyway. The early Z28's weren't very fast at all for straight line drag racing, when compared to the popular muscle cars of the day. Like the Chevelle SS or even the Camaro SS. But on a autocross track, with the new suspension, along with being able to easily wind them out to 8,000 or 8,500 RPM, they were fast. Detroit was cranking out cars back then, to go as fast as possible, in a straight line. Then with the tiny, narrow, bias ply tires that came on them, and the body roll, you had to slow down to a near crawl just to get around a curve. Lol. I just got a 1995 Z28 a couple weeks back, with the factory LT1 350. The former owner tore it down, had the block line honed, and the cylinder heads shaved and polished, along with a pretty aggressive camshaft, back in 2013. He drove it about 2500 miles, and blew a head gasket. So he just parked it. It sat there in the same spot on the lawn, from 2013 until 2 weeks ago, when i went and picked it up. He put the car on the dyno, and it layed down 421 hp to the wheels. Which is impressive, using the factory block and heads. Considering how brand new, they were only rated at 275 hp at the crank. Which i estimate would have probably only been about 220 or 225 hp to the wheels. Ive got big plans for it, like swapping out the 4L60E automatic transmission, for a T56 six speed that is in the car you have here. That, and a complete Stage 2 QA1 Performance suspension along with a Ford 9". It still has its stock 10 bolt rear end in it that works fine usually for and automatic transmission, but are notorious for breaking, after a few clutch dumping launches with a manual. I'm excited to get it finished.
The Z/28 was introduced in 1966 for the 1967 model year. It was equipped with the 5 liter, 302 cubic inches, for the SCCA road race series. Chevrolet had to build at least 500 for public sale to qualify. It only came with a 4 speed, power front disc brakes, a posi rear. Power steering was optional, no AC. Over 7,000 were built in 1968 and 20,000 in 1969 on the 1st generation.
Chris Harris’ old car if I’m not mistaken 👍😃
I thought the same thing. Did Harris’ one sell?
Yea looks like it.....Winning bid was £54000 on 10/09.....
Mike Wilcox meaning? Did he pee himself?
He would have borrowed it from Harris. They are friends IIRC.
54,000 British dollars? That’s like 85,000 Canadian dollars. I can buy these for $50k here. Maybe i should start importing them to Britain.
Just the idea of having a 427 cubic inch V8 had me at hello! Although it's not an old-school "big-block" V8, it's still pretty cool.
Nice review and love seeing these cars being enjoyed outside of the U.S. I have a 2015 and from time to time have thought about selling it. I used to daily drive it and put 41k miles on it, but no longer daily drive it and seems a bit impractical to have it sitting in my garage 80% of the time. However, I can't bring myself to let it go because its truly special in every way.
Must have some deep pockets to daily a Z/28 lol
A beautiful part of the world to take this Z28 on a road trip. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing engine 7.0 V8!!!
Amazing engine 7.0 v8
Really enjoyed that one Dan. Great quantity of car knowledge and driving content...
The Z28 is definitely a cool car and a possible classic in the making! You asked a very interesting question, why are we letting cars like this disappear? Unfortunately, many people don't want to learn how to drive a manual, it seems many are apprehensive and unwilling. The buyers are the reason why these cars are disappearing. The magical recipe of a great sports car which was rear wheel drive, manual transmission, front or rear engine and the open road has now become a bunch of hype with 0-60 times, track lap times, and how fast your double clutch transmission can shift. The pleasure of driving has been forgotten or is unrealized by many "car" enthusiast out there. Thanks for the great video, keep up the good work!
Amazing video as always Dan! Absolutely love these Rise & Drive videos! Keep doing them please!
Motor Trend did a dyno test vs the GT350 and it had the same HP, and that's why Gen5 Z28 has 11 more ft.lbs. of torque
As a z owner myself, this is my favorite review of them all. Very accurate 👌💯
I restored a 70 1/2 Camaro with my son in 2003. I owned a '97 V6 Rally Sport 5 speed I loved because it handled like a go kart with just a sway bar upgrade. Later a 2000 Z28 that felt nose heavy and under steered too much. I'm happy to see the Camaro emerge as great as this one. Great review, thank you.
My uncles use to have a 70 1/2 Z/28 RS, years before I was born. My first Camaro was a 99 5 speed with T Tops and currently a 2014 LT2 RS 6 speed.
That 7:37 Nurburgring time was in the wet too.............
Great vid. Awesome car, that grumpy v8. Would put a smile on you’re face every time.
Cheers Dan
What a car, just amazing
On my list for my collection, a true classic. Love it.
Love this format! Next: 355 or 360 Modena? Havent seen a good video by a proper roadtester of these V8 Ferraris in ages😁
These cars drive really nice. Lots of available torque. Amazingly fast through the twists and no screeching tires, just stick or a controlled drift. It changes direction (transitions) so nice. A linear car, quite tractable, predictable, useable.
Have mercy...AMAZING...he actually said "Z" 28..purposely! In my last video on the C5 Z06, I had to point out how Porsche felt compelled to make a video of how to pronounce Por-sche to us americans, but then people in Europe insist on saying Zed-oh six or Zed-twenty eight. Thank you for being that rare one!
I completely agree. However the gen 5 Z28 was built in Oshawa, Canada, and Canadians use the "zed" pronunciation. So I think in this case either pronunciation is valid
Amazing ride. Just took a test drive few weeks ago I'm impressed really amazing car to drive. unfortunately it was sold the week after the test drive. The price is worth every penny of it.
You should drive the new SS1LE for a comparison. Basically the same car, bug v8, good chassis, 6 speed, fat tires and an amazing soundtrack.
Lmao, everyone calls me “Zed 28.” It was funny hearing you try to say “Zee” instead. Good video 👍🏼
As a pure bred American, the little difference in saying Zee instead of Zed is highly appreciated
This video needs so, so much more attention. Dan is fantastic
Excellent channel. Dan is a really great car reviewer.
I owned one
In my top 3 drivers cars I’ve had
1 - 16M scuderia
2 - Z28
3 - M3 CSL
Excellent video! This z28 is one of my favorite american cars ever.
Very enjoyable to watch, thank you :-)
Would have loved a bit more talk about the engine. That LS7 is...special. You can consistently get them over 900hp. NATURALLY ASPIRATED. It's a monster of an engine and for people that don't like whine, its a dream.
These videos are brilliant.
I've got a Z/28 here in Southeast England, I definitely get broke necks lol
What color?
One of these for sale on Collecting Cars. The new interior is better but not great. The short DLO makes it feel bunker like. That pushrod V8 engine noise is awesome.
Glad I have one.
A supremely sophisticated machine...nice review!
Rewatching this as I just bought a Hemi Challenger with a six speed. Dan is so right - cars like this (tuneful V8, manual, RWD) are disappearing and we’ll miss ‘em when they’re gone.
Wow what a wonderful vehicle. The video was very intuitive, informative and enjoyable to say the least! Thanks guys! I WANT THIS CAR HA!
My all time favorite car one day I will own one.
I WANT tha car so bad.... the last of the badass pure V8s
Btw, Germans .... listen to what a proper V8 is supposed to sound like...notice the lack of farts and burps?
These videos are sick 👌
These and the GT350 are both brilliant.
Well the car was built for track use. I bought a 2014 Camaro 1SS in 2014. had I known about the existence of the Z/28 I certainly would have ordered one! I mean it’s a no brainer! gosh darn it all!😂
Harris' car innit? Great video!
The big question, and something tells me I am not the only one that has been causing it, is what is better, 2018 ZL1 1LE or the Z28?
What hard to differentiate
2 completely different cars.
The ZL1 1LE is incomparably better.
They are similar. ZLE is based off the Z/28. The Z/28 will hold value and is already appreciating in value. It's an icon and much more rare plus its N/A 427 LS7. Heads/cam and bolts ons is perfect on the Z/28 IMO. Both cars are stiff as hell for the street.... handling is unreal though.
Luverly engine. It hasn't got turbo lag. It's got inertia :)
Awesome video!
I totally lost with this Z/28. Some day I've to have it!!!
Shame it weighs so much because while the interior is cheap it's still leagues better than the C6 Corvette Z06 with the same motor.
Leagues better how?
I will do this Saturday morning, and go to the earliest Mass possible on Sunday, to do it again after Mass.
Dan is the man!
Lovely stuff
Fantastic car and vid. Well done.
🇺🇸👍💪🦅
Awesome Video, thanks 🙏🏼
I kinda want one now, and I really want a gt350
Charles Follette exactly
For some rise I learn this day dream car when I was 10 years old but it look like the corvette for a lisence drive for alot of power
Nice
What a car!
really awsome car👌👌👌👌😎😎😎✌
Nice one Dan, cheers. :)
Still into the 1979 z28.
I was so close to buying one, the $15,000 brakes changed my mind. Got the 2017 SS 1LE instead. No regrets, still might get that guy one day. I'm so happy Engineer's run GM now, the 80's and 90's cars were shit.
The 2019 is a much better steering feel great video
Great review. New sub here.
Thank you for the Z effort!
It's not a big car, in America it's a pony car , then we have passenger/ family size cars.
The British had always for decades provided America with Small cars...well till JDM came with the Zed 240, which wiped out the British Sports Car dominance.The rest is history.
Good review of a car, that in the 60s and 70s, I drove all sorts of British Sports cars, and sneered, at the ham fisted mentality ,of the pony cars, driver's, of the time
Camaros ,Mustangs , Dodges.. just V8 and poor suspensions ( and driver's )
Thanks for saying Z and not zed :)
$75k wasn’t cheap and the cars didn’t sell for that! Some had to be heavily discounted.
I thought most were selling closer to 100k
Joe Friday you can buy a really nice used one for under $50k
@@JeepCherokeeful I'm sorry I thought we were talking about brand new prices.
Best sounding car on earth
Rice n Beans no
Chris Harris do u think they make a 2019 Camaro z28 with twin turbo of horsepower 850hp
If it has a turbo or a supercharger then it’s not a Z28. Enough said.
Only thing as good is this is the current Shelby GT350R and it's flat crank V8. It's a shame V8 cars like this are killed off by the government's. They will never happen again, at least an affordable one.
They should have put a blower on this engine and kept the engine/blower combo for the newer cars.
this American heavy hitter made a 911 GT3 RS look stupid on a track.
Have you driven and recorded a 2016+ Shelby GT350 or GT350R? If you like the Z/28, you'll fall in love with that. I know I have!
z28 is better:).. and older
@@Ws6Ms You couldn't be more wrong lol.
@@michaelallen2501 Have you driven the ZL1 1LE ?
@@gen1c8rs88 I have absolutely zero interest in blower cars.
@@michaelallen2501 Good point, I was just was talking about driving dynamics. Also did you know that the originally planed engine for the C7 Z06 was a naturally asperated tall deck LT based 454, but couldn't pass emissions because the cylinder deactivation mechanism was not durable enough above 6600rpm. Would have been really cool with 681 SAE HP(1.5 SAE HP per cubic inch).
I’d love to see your impressions on the Shelby Gt350
pos ford. the s550 chassis is junk. forget them
@@isaachunt5799 ha.
I shared a track with a few of these while I was in my stock C6Z. Needless to say they got lapped. (Owners looked like a few late 40’s Boeing stiffs) Cool car though.
Stock C6Z is lacking compared a Z/28. C6Z with the Z07 package is another story. The Z/28 is more track capable than the standard C6Z even though it weighs more.... suspension tuning is top notch on this car.
Looks like a Canadian Camaro
I love mine
You guys should drive a 6th gen (preferably a SS 1LE). The chassis on the 6th gen is SO much better.
yep. lighter aswell. having owned 2 gen5 camaros and now a gen6..gen6 is the real deal
@@isaachunt5799 pleaseeee.. I keep up with 6 gens easy
@@Ws6Ms daily driving that pos thing drive is a death trap.
worst car i have ever owned.
@@isaachunt5799 you're just a troll, first you said you loved all 3 Camaros you owned now you're saying you hate the Gen 5 just because an old modified Gen 5 can keep up with your new Gen 6

The LS7 had its faults in the past but it revs and pulls.
He struggles massively to compliment anything that’s not a Porsche.
He's doing pretty good with this Z28.
What porches besides the gt2 and the 918 can beat this car? I haven't read the lap times lately
The z28 is a legend.
That better be coffee...Camaros are not for tea sippers
My wet dream!
Im sad this man doesnt know the greatness of a cammed straightpiped v8 i hope he will soon
Now get your hands on a Shelby GT350/R
what makes me scratch my head is........they used carbon ceramics on the Z/28 but not on the ZL1 1LE that makes 145hp more
Not nothing scratch your head at the z/28 is track specific the zl1 #1 priority is to go fast the z/28 #1 priority is to be tracked hard
@@tylercouture216 The ZL1 1LE wouldn't have all that aero if it wasn't meant to be a track car. Thats the whole point to the 1LE package. They are both track car with the same Multi Matic suspension setup and R compound tires.....see what I'm getting at
@Th3Aggr3ssiv3 Cons3rvativ3 I agree......automakers and customers are realizing that Carbon Ceramic brakes are over kill(especially for street use). Cast Iron do a damn good job if cooled properly. BUT Carbon ceramic are damn cool
Twin Turbo a friend has a 15 Z/28 and he learned real quick about how worthless the carbon brakes are when they are cold. Lucky for him we live in the middle of nowhere with no traffic around when he was going over 100 and tried to stop.
That’s an engine waiting to be modified
Mate, its Zed, zed, zed, zed, zed.... Got it??
They built too many to keep the used prices up in North America. Twice too many I’d say.
I think the Miles per Gallon figures were omitted, But 1700kg is a big car, I was thinking how modern car have house appliances(CCTV, 4 TV with HD and Wifi , heated seats, massaging seats, fridges and sensors ) in them and that 's why they feel num to drive , this has no household appliance and weighs 1700kg that's a big girl but love the Rise & Drive series, lol youtubes sleeping on this channel
Katlego Nkosi Carrera T... New school, but old school
Appreciate the "zee." 👍
Z e e z28 is they make a new z28
gen5 and ben6 camaros are both light years ahead of those pos junk s550 mustangs. why people buy that ford junk amazes me.
owned 3 camaros and loved them all..now got a gen 6 2ss..wow what a car
I blame Chris Harris for my view of this video
What's a Zee.... :P
Zeeee
Think god he says z28 n not zed 28
Lmao
Your only bouncing so much and saying its way to stiff because you don't have a harness installed haha, once the harness is in you will feel how much of a difference and planted it feels in the corners bro
