    Congrats! As a fellow ZLE owner, I could not be more thrilled. I would suggest getting a baseline on track once you’ve pushed the car with it’s current setup before adding go fast bits.

      I agree, this car has a ton of everything I already want, one of which is the Warranty still intact lol But all the basics are going on the car shortly, going to wait to get use to the power before messing with anything there

    Hi Mac! Congratulations on the purchase of your ZL1-1LE; awesome! I'm really looking forward to your new build and can't wait to see the on-track footage. I think you got a great deal on the car, especially considering the mileage and existing warranty (understanding it was tracked heavily, knowing that's what the car was made for). 👍

      I agree, The car will certainly be wrapped, but the bumper is torn and all the defects would show right through the vinyl, so over the next two weeks I will start a wet sanding & repaint DIY project then wrap it, we will see how it goes! lol

      @@macpettit2327 If you are going to do a DIY repaint, try to do as close to OEM paint process as possible. And give about a month for paint to cure before wrapping. If you can't get a proper repaint, if you wrap it and lift the vinyl it may lift the paint when re-adjusting.

    I’m only 2 minutes in the video so far, but I test drove that car before I found mine. I was pissed after driving for 2 hours to GA to look at it lol. They also had it listed for $57K at that time, didn’t mention that fact that there was a roll cage that had been removed & there was something wrong with the suspension at that time. Every time I’d hit the throttle I had to turn the wheel hard to go straight. Serious misrepresentation of what I was going to look at.
    Edit: it must’ve been the rear end & not the suspension when I test drove it. Good luck & hope you enjoy man!

      @macpettit2327  Před 3 lety +1

      Probably won't be making a video on that topic as it doesn't fit much with my channel, but as a quite overview, the market is roughly up 10-20% vs last years prices, bought my 2018 for 30 & sold it for more than I paid, I think most dealers are listing in the high 30's true market & what people are willing to pay is 35+/- based on condition & milage

    Good pick up. Just today I test drove a 2021 only 6 miles on it. Imo, coming from a c7 z51, I wasn't impressed with the 650hp at all. I was really disappointed. Maybe its just heavier or maybe it wasn't broken in yet it was so new it wasn't giving me all the 650??
    Idk still thinking about it but for track duty good pick up for you congrats..

    • @macpettit2327
      @macpettit2327  Před 3 lety

      Thanks man I appreciate it, coming from my previous cars it definitely feels incredibly fast to me, but it has to be heavier then a C7 by a good 500 lbs, so that could certainly be part of the reason

    • @SM-eu5xl
      @SM-eu5xl Před 3 lety +1

      ?? You drive a C7 Z51 and you think the ZL1 1LE isn’t ‘impressive’? Sure buddy.. I owned a C7 Grand Sport prior to this ZL1 1LE and know for sure this car is much more powerful. Not sure what you’re talking about??

    • @GrimSRT8
      @GrimSRT8 Před 2 lety

      ZLE absolutely would destroy a C7 Z51, it would destroy a C7 Grand Sport, and it’s a better track car than the C7Z. So either something was wrong with the ZLE, or you were driving an SS 1LE.

  • @BigClaunch
