- I review the 580 hp 2013 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 with a manual transmission. What do you think about the ZL1? This car is available from Harrison Auto Sales and more information about it can be found here: www.harrisonautos.com/2013_Che...

I'm here just to see his acceleration reaction lol
Me too
+Dean M And look you got three of them.
his face looks like he shit him self
😂😂😂😂 Hella funny
8:30
when you've been holding in that shit for too long and it comes out faster than expected
This video cost me a lot of money. After watching it about a thousand times, I bought a 2013 ZL1 coupe. Yessir - this thing is fast and I do feel like a boss when driving it. Best purchase I’ve ever made. Thanks Matt!
Is it a good daily ?
@@Drosflow great daily. Except for mpgs… but worth it!
Yep, he sold me on it too 3 years ago.
And you can lay waste to all the immature Challenger and Charger owners around the country that think they are the Kings of the road, and want to race every car they see. Dodge must be the official car brand for men with small penises LOL
What year did you buy? I’m looking into 2015 because I love that gen’s front
once again, your reactions do not disappoint!!
Tj Hunt tbt
Tj Hunt perv
look where youre at now since this comment🥺
THA BOY TEEJ wassup brotha !!
Glad you enjoyed the car man! I agree, the interior is drastically improved from when the car first came out. I sat it in it as the motor trend show and just said to myself quietly "thank god"
Still can't see out of it with my short self though haha. Good review.
How tall are you? :D
Lol, I know how you feel, I'm 5'2. This is my dream car and I can't even see out of it either.
I sat in a normal SS and that dash is sooo high!
Thanks man!
SLarson im 6'2 and it was a pain besides 2013+ 5.0's with boltons and a driver mod will beat a zl1
"All that stupid crap that no one cares about" Most honest review ever.
Your face is priceless when you get on it😂
"Let's turn onto this backroad........." We know what's coming ;)
DigitalHaze65536 yessss haha
Watching this in 2024. Best review I’ve found so far man. Your energy is unmatched. I hope you’re doing well, and still doing something that showcases your awesome personality.
i know this is an old video, and i watch your current ones, but i just want to say, you're the best car reviewer anywhere, period. #1 bro. you're the truth.
I dislike when people say Camaro's are everywhere, so are Mustangs, so are Challengers. Car companies are in the market of making money that means to sell cars to as many people as possible.
Agreed, it is a very stupid argument
Since I got my 14 I see lots of Camaros now
69 Camaros were everywhere too. They were popular cars.
Mustangs are common than camaros and challengers, mustangs are like assholes everybody has one
Cam Brady 012 Thats true but keep in mind that chevy and dodge stop production and that is why you see a lot of those 1998-2009 mustangs.
I felt your enthusiasm through the screen on this one. Wow, I'm all hyped up just from watching this. Remain genuine, man.. makes your car reviews worth watching. Was this really a 15min video? Never even noticed.
the progression your channel has gone through this past year has been amazing. Good work.
Your initial "Whats up everybody" gets me every time man! Keep up the awesome reviews!
Owning this car is on my goal list ... once my truck is paid for, I'll be saving and hunting for a ZL1.
So happy you reviewed a newer Camaro. Ever since 2012 Chevy has really stepped it up with these Camaros and has improved on most of the complaints you pointed out in the 2010 RS. I mean the V6's have been bumped up 20HP and more than that in torque and also have that new steering wheel and much more tight suspension.
This kid is hilarious! Nice to see the younger gens appreciate speed - great reviews, keep up the great work!!
I drove my dad's ZL1 this past Sunday and OMG it is a beast for sure!
I like how this guy is always excited at every start of his video reviews hahhaha.. makes you want to tune in more
Great review once again ! I love the evolution of the reviews in just a year, the camera shots and editing are better every time, keep it up !
Awesome spot on review. Seen this years ago when I first got my ZL1 just now commenting. It’s an exceptionally special car.
I'm so happy you did a ZL1 review! I've been a die hard camaro fan since I was little!
Thank you for a great review! I finally just picked up my third Camaro(2013 ZL1) a couple of months ago. I love it and thanks for your review because it was spot on!
Very enthusiastic start today Matt lol. This car is awesome!
That's one of your best reviews yet; the intro was really well done, and your WOT reactions are always hilarious. And I'm glad to see you've changed your mind on the Camaro. Also, holy crap the ZL1 looks unbelievably sinister in that paint scheme.
Your reactions to the acceleration are one of the top reasons I watch your videos hahaha
Probably the best review I've seen...I usually stay away from muscle cars but your video and your excitement is making me turn! Lol but really great video! I like the intro!
LOVED this review Matt ! I hope I can finally drive some american muscle next time I'm in the states :) Please keep the reviews coming, you do such an awesome job !
Thanks Guido! I appreciate it! Hope you can make a trip to the states soon!
subaruwrxfan how tall are u
+Malik Walker I think from one of his reviews he said he was like 5"9
loved the face you where making when you where revving the car. nice review man!
awesome car.
You can tell he really enjoys this car and his reviews good job man!
One of your best reviews, nice job and your facial expressions every time you stood on it were great
i love when you get faster cars to review the reactions are too great. great review again, ZL1 is underrated around here, needs more marketing.
I just bought mine today, 2012 with 13,461 miles on it today!! Drives fast and smooth
Production levels are getting better. Good job.
It's always amusing to see a person that normally drives 4-bangers finally drive a V8. They almost always get hit with the visceral excitement that makes V8s so much fun; like a kid with a brand new toy. LOL No other engine can provide that throaty, guttural note that a V8 can; not a V12, not a V10, and especially not a V6 or 4-banger. That authoritative, yet effortless acceleration is pure addiction. The V8 engine is by far one of the best things to ever happen in the automotive ethos. And considering the fact it can be scaled to make as much or as little HP as any other engine out there, it's probably THE best engine ever with regards to passenger/street vehicles.
That was one well editing video! How did you do the 0:29 effect? The name of the effect? Editing program? Thanks! Cheers:)
I think he switched his camera lense to manual focus, so he can focus in and out when he wants to in order to create that effect. Hope this helps.
Dylan Petersen No I think he just refocused it because I have the same camera and it does the same thing whenever you focus it while videoing.
Well either way it was still a nice effect.
Dylan Petersen indeed
YerrowNoodle I think he's talking about the flashing.
True petrolhead reviewing a muscle car! Amazing review, you're doing good!
This video honestly put a smile on my face, great review, seemed like you had genuinely good time with this car. This is basically my dream car so hopefully one day I will be able to buy this awesome car :D
Love your reviews bro! Really want the ZL1 now! Thanks again!
Great video! I can see how the ZL1 would make you giddy! I have this same car,2013 ZL1 but mine is black and I have the automatic which was a tough decision for me but Im more than happy with it! I can put it in manual and shift with the paddle shifter anytime I want.lots of low end tork! Plenty of compliments everywhere I go. I totally agree with the location of the boost gauge.they should have incorporated it in the HUD feature. My friend says its like riding in a "bunker" with the low cut windows but Im getting used to that and the somewhat restricted visability from inside.hey.its worth it! When I purchased this car it had around 3700 miles on it and I got a very good price.Moonroof,magnetic ride suspension,traction control,backup camera,remote start,bluetooth,sirius radio,onstar,supercharger,580 hp and plus its blazing fast! more than happy with this car! Love it!
Tell me everything about your car? Because when i get through paying for my 13 RS ima trade it in for a 2013 ZL1 how is automatic on it?
love the review! I was a little heart broken after the 2010 review as you were not much of a fan but i knew the changes they made in 2012 addressed many of the issues and glad to hear it was noticed. Probably one of my favorite reviews yet!
This is my favorite review of the Zed. I own a '14 Zed in this color, but I can't get over how much you enjoyed this car! It makes me look forward to driving mine when the weather gets better.
I really like your reviews, you can tell you enjoy cars as much as me. Good job, keep it up
Loved the video, Matt! Whenever I start doing videos (and maybe some reviews), I'm gonna be just like you. Enthusiastic as *hell*!! Hahahahaha.. Thanks, man!
Your reactions when you speed up are priceless...good review man!
Youre like a kid in a candy store every time you review a car hahaha.. loving the enthusiasm :)
My first reaction was to make a comment poking fun at you for getting so giddy when you first get on it. Then I realized I probably would have the same giddy looking face. I'm very jealous you got to drive this car lol. Good review too!
God I want one of these cars so badly. I have a 2012 v6 manual, which is a ton of fun in it's own right, but this car is the Camaro perfected imo.
I feel ya! I have the same ride as you, 2012 v6 manual. I'm saving my pennies to buy the drivetrain from a totaled ZL1. The ultimate sleeper, ZL1 in an LS base model. No one would ever suspect it. No menacing look from the outside but it's all under the hood.
I love watching your reactions! That probably sounds weird but I start laughing and smiling because I would be doing the same thing! Gotta love cars and their excitement!
@Subaruwrxfan, I really love the enthusiasm and I will continue to watch your videos. Keep it up. I'm a subscriber now.
You by far do the best car reviews I've seen lol
I cracked up as soon as you said "Whats up" your hand gestures already letting us know that you were amped. Haha great review man!
Very nice review. Your reviews and thatdudeinblue give reviews that show true feeling and emotion. I can tell by the body language, facial expressions, and pure excitement that you mean it when you review these cars. By the way I sense you may be a muscle car guy at heart. lol.
Great review I loved it. You really conveyed the joy it brings to drive. Great video.
danm im a jdm guy but this camaro looks so good! nice job murica
come to daytona and this is the only car you see
Awesome video man!! That opening blew me away i loved it !!
great review man! now I am planning to buy that car because of you!
Love your reviews , outstanding man!!!
I do enjoy your reviews. you give such a detailed review and your reaction is so true no matter if it's good or bad. thank you for your channel
dude, wtf how did you get into one of these!!!!!
awesome review
That was your best backroad reaction yet
I love how you said it feels like a tank! My buddy had an ss and we called it "the tank" haha you literally made my day saying that
hey subaruwrxfan, you and thatdudeinblue are killing the intros bro
All things like, boot, and all the interior stuff is exactly what you want in a review :) btw tjis review was just spectacular
Great video! I own a 2013 Manual black ZL1 as well, its the most amazing car ever. I traded in my shelby gt500 for the ZL1 and never looked back. Sure it has less HP but the feel of the ZL1 is amazing, plus the handling. The shelby was nice.. however to much hp and not enough handling..
This guy's face was pricless... thats like me everytime I gass it!
Some people like to do drugs and drink... but everytime I let loose on my ZL1 I feel amazing, such a rush!
Also I agree one thing I dislike about the ZL1 is the boost is in a horrible spot. If they put the boost on the HUD (heads up display)
Hassy Ali yeah I agree with you about that they should put a digital boost gauge on the HUD but the reason it is in the center counsel like that is because its a throw back to the old late 60's camaro rally package.
Try a gt350 next!! I bet they have really come a long way
Hassy Ali where are you from? New Jersey?
I am impressed too, you took that turn that you "always take" just as fast as the ultra handling machine Ford Fous sedan. Wow, simply WOW.
7:04 convinced me to buy one - BEST PURCHASE I EVER MADE!
Kevin Sheets what’s your update on the car?
Kevin Sheets ?
Best part of your videos is watching your reaction
this was uploaded 5 days before my bday, also love camaros and subarus
can you do a review on a 2003 or 2005 subaru impreza wrx sti ?
great reviews watching one of them whenever i can!
Oh Matt you filmed my favorite us muscle car it's my dream car since the new SS came out and wanna drive it some day... maybe on the German autobahn because they have much better roads for long rides and pulls! love every single part of the car, the new interiors have been improved and that's great! plus gotta love the intro.. gonna download it for sure and play it in my SAAB 93. ONCE AGAIN AWESOME REVIEW!!!!!! GO CHEVYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY !!!!!!!!!
one of your best reviews
...and I thought my V6 3.6L 323 HP Camaro was fast...this thing is crazy fast and powerful.
man the sound of this car sounds like a tiger! my favourite car of them all! much better than the challenger in terms of its looks
Awesome review! Love the Mustang but now I need to take a good look at this.
Love the videos. I'm going to test drive a ZL1 tomorrow. It has the semi automatic. Am I missing much compared to the manual? Also was thinking for the longest on an BMW M3 E92. Hope I make the right decision. Ugh.
That was a really good review of the car!, especially when you first accelerated and it lost traction. Cool vid man!.
Love this video. Watched it many times. Well done my friend.
Just a suggestion, if you could find and do a review on the 1998-2001 Subaru impreza 2.5rs that would awesome i would love to hear your thoughts on that car
why ?
Jared Tate Well cause he does car reviews if you didn't notice and he is also a Subaru fan, the 2.5rs is the only Good Subaru he hasn't done a review on yet. I'm Sure is because a Stock one is extremely hard to come by, most of them now are swapped with wrx or STi motors now
I would love to review a 2.5rs! And your comment got 9 thumbs up too so it sounds like several other people want me to review one. If I can find one to review I definitely will!
subaruwrxfan Awesome that would be great cant wait
Now it's 21 likes lol
In all of the Camaro reviews, he always refers the view as sitting in a tank. Imo it's more like sitting in the cockpit of a jet fighter. I love my 2012! Turns heads everywhere I go.
Great review man!
Would be awesome if you made a review about the 2013 Dodge Challenger! That's my dream car. I would be so happy :)
Keep up the good work brother!
"Thick and meaty"
Ou you naughty boy
I enjoy watching the reviews of awesome cars but I really like the enthusiasm of the driver and his feedback. Whenever he drives a fast car during hard acceleration the expression in his smile says it all. :) thanks for the reviews.
best review yet matt!
diggin' your energy driving it.
Thank you!
Awesome job on the editing!
Great review! Even better car :)
Keep up the good work
You make the best cars review in youtube!!!... Nice video!
That exhaust system sounds incredible! I'm sad that I don't have one. :(
So it's spectacular them...
You're excitement is infectious and fun to watch.
Thanks! Glad you think so!
Great review! And your face when you floor it is priceless xD
Awesome review Matt!!!
Awesome. Actually went to a dealer to lokms at this car today . truly amazing
Great review as always!
Huge respect from Hungary! :)
I've found that when the sun is at a certain angle (evening and morning) the sun reflects off of the heads up display onto the windshield and the visors are not wide enough to shield from the sun in late evening and early morning. They don't extend or have extensions. I've also found the positioning of the accelerator with regard to my leg to be less than comfortable on all day trips on the freeway. Thoughts?
Matt..u test drove 2013 boss and 2013 zl1 which would u personally choose?
Epic car, just reviewed the convertible of this car. Very fun to drive
I will be getting a 2012 zl1 on my 25th birthday💪🏻 keep pushin y’all
As always great review!!
Man that thing look good.! Another great review Matt :)
Thank you!
I like your enthusiasm and your consistence throughtout your videos.. keep up the good work.. hello from australia
Thank you!
His acceleration reactions are the best! 8:35
