    I’m going to have to disagree on the interior, I think it’s great especially if you spec it out properly with the carbon fiber on the dash and the suede arm rest. It is definitely better than all other muscle cars when it comes to quality imo
    Especially with the amenities like cooled seats and heated steering wheel

    i like his comment about making sure you are ready for a zl1. i have a ss 2019 and i can get squirrly with that. for me i dont think it would be the best for me. but you gotta love the hp that thing puts out

    I'm currently contemplating on getting a 2019+ ZL1 or a R35 GTR(2009-2015) since they're close in price. Since u have experience with both maybe do a video about it(pros/cons plus which one u prefer). GTR's hold their value well but ZL1 come in manuals. If I can get a good deal on either one, I'll just go for it.

      @LextasyNation  Před 10 měsíci

      Both are great cars but completely opposites of each other, dual clutch vs manual, rwd vs awd, supercharged vs turbo (puts power down differently) In a case like this it just comes down to you driving both and see which one feels more comfortable for you.

    it's called a FLOWTIE they made the front bowtie that way for the reason of getting more air flow. obviously you'll be going to the drag strip but have you thought about doing road corse racing? that's what this was designed for and that's where it really shines.

    I got my blue ZL1 back in early December. I'm in love again! ❤ Back in the early seventies I had to sell my '68 427 Camaro to get a place to live when I started my new family. It had about 425 to 450 HP and I thought that one was fast. No comparison! I always said that one of these days I'm going to buy another one. So 45 years later I have finally gotten it! I'm on cloud nine! WEEEEE!!!

    I have a 2022 ZL1,,in Vivid Orange Metallic,,,Love it 🎉,,the things that I think Chevy fell short on are ,,I do like the rear camera but I have to refocus my eyes to use it and it should have a 360° camera,,,with the poor visibility it’s hard to see any curbs in parking lots and when you are pulling into a spot you need a front camera so you don’t cave in the front spoiler,,,also the rear camera the coloured lines are very faint,,,I replaced the brake pads,,way too much dust,,(I also did that on my C7 Z51 corvette ) and no garage door remote? 😮,,the alcantera on the steering wheel and shifter knob,,,should be leather so it can be cleaned and sanitized,,,I found a silicone ( skin ) for the wheel and looking for one for the shifter,,,

      @@LextasyNation I’ve been in dodge and mustang interiors and tbh the Camaro is my favorite, I personally am a lover of the color changing LEDs never get sick of them. I like how the challenger is a bit more clear out the front but other than that I feel the seats don’t hold me in as well as the Camaro seats tho. And I am one of the few that enjoys the aluminum trim on the car, I’ve owned mainly BMWs, well really only BMWs and I enjoy the Camaro interior a lot more. Granted my BMWs have never been year model only late 2000s and early 2010s but, yeah I stand for MOST not all of the Camaro interior, they could lower the door sills tbh

      Hellcat or GT 500 are both 100k or more and this ZL1 is 70k and there interior are not much better not 30k better. CT5-V is also over 100 k and its alot nicer but its alot more also.
