I thought Mustang GT350 was nice for shouting you out in his video then here you go with the extra mile and post his channel AND tell all of us to follow him. And you was really telling me in your other video you don't do enough nice things for people -_- I was thinking about supercharging my car. But I had to really think about it. Why would I want to make my car 600+ HP? I can't use it. I use my car for daily driving like you. All that power would just be to show off. It would be nice having a SS and being almost as fast as Hellcats tho. But I don't street race, drag, or anything. But before I do anything my first goal is to pay my car off first THEN I can start doing stuff lol And for your final question I prefer yo ZL1 BUT if you did trade it as RCF said an Orange 2SS 1LE would be clean for you. But you saying the ZL1is a bit excessive makes me happy cuz I always wonder what if especially bout the ZL1 that got away from me but now I see SS is the perfect match for me.
Man I'm so appreciative of this. Thanks a lot brother. LOL! GT350 was nice first. I was a reactive nice. I would like that orange since rapid blue is EVERYWHERE. I thought I was special lol. 600 HP is very excessive for people like us. It is fun though but an SS is great too. I've lusted after the Z28 for years. I need to test one out to put my mind at ease.
@@QueTheChaotic LOL you right tho. GT350 was nice first. Again shout out to him for that! But man I TOLD YOU. Rapid Blue is everywhere. It's even a color for the soccer mom vehicles too. I just see it too much now. But yeah definitely test out a Z28. Love to see you in that Orange but if that Z28 calls for you after that test drive you know what to do.
@@V.VIIIBeanman yessir! Lol. I didn’t notice all the rapid blues at first and today I saw a Toyota RAV4 in a similar shade lol. I’d have to sleep on it. The part that sucks is that I have no Z28s near me to try. And they have halogen bulbs 🤮
I own an SS (albeit a 5th gen) and sometimes I feel like even that has a bit much power when going wide-open. In between shifts you can feel how much power is being delivered and it makes you stop and think for a second to process what you're actually doing.
I have a 2023 ZL1 M6 on order. The price went up 3700 dollars. My car only option was navigation, and the price was close to 70,000 dollars msrp, which is what I paid plus tax. All my cars since 1980 have been manual transmission Chevrolets. Thanks for the video sir.
The Z28 is extremely rare and would be a great investment, never have seen another youtuber with 1. Hard choice the Zl1 is Amazing and I have been thinking about a switch from 20 2SS. I appreciate your insight 👍🏽🔥
Definitely keep your ZL1. The Z28 is nice but the ZL1 is a better car and more exciting in my opinion. Everyone has their preference. I love the power and handling on my ZL1.
Great content as always! Started following you about two months ago with the ZL1 content. I’ve been wanting one for a while now. I’ve owned a 2009 Corvette Z06 with the LS7 and I know you mentioned you’ve been eyeing the 5th gen Camaro Z28 with the LS7. Great engine but you have to get the heads fixed asap, valve train had an issue with the exhaust valve dropping or something rather, if it hadn’t been fixed already. On my C6Z I went with AHP heads for piece of mind, great engine but IMO I’d rather have your 6th gen ZL1. Modern tech, power, etc. the LT4 engine that comes in the C7 Z06 and your 6th gen ZL1 is bulletproof
I have never owned a ZL1 I wanted to but just never bought one. Right now I have a 21 SS 1LE. My 2nd one. I just purchased a low mileage 2015 Z/28 that I’m waiting to get on a truck and be delivered so I will let you know what I think of it. I’ve never even rode in a Z/28 but since they came out in 2014 I always wanted one. To me there is nothing better than a 7.0 LS7.
I'm still in my 14 SS 1LE and can't bring myself to get rid of it, but would for a Z/28. I've had it since 2015 and still love it and take super good care of it. Did the one you bought have the air conditioning option?
Please keep me updated on your Z28. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. I've always wanted one but the way my bank account was set up in 2014.......
@@QueTheChaotic Yeah me too I remember going to look at a black one on the show room floor in 2014 and about fainted that it was $75k! I will let you know my thoughts about it when it gets here!
Another great video Q! Lol at that voiceover “you bought a track car to drive it on the street” 😂 You made some good points. The price gap is definitely huge vs adding bolt ons which is almost 5K and you get 500rwhp easy and your right there with a ZL1 but it’s different stroke for different folks
This is the same situation as a GT350 vs a GT with mods. I could make a GT much faster for the same amount of money, but I've got something much more special with the GT350. BTW, you're late today.
In my case I feel the Z28 is the special car. I'm like 50/50 on them both. I would love to add bolt ons to it. My ZL1 is already super fast. I can't understand how people drive 1000 hp cars. My ZL1 would be WAAAAAAYYYYY nicer.
LMAO @ Que running from the bee!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Great video I honestly was planning on getting a ZL1 for the longest time up until I test drove one recently, it really is too much power for daily use, maybe if it was AWD with a lot more traction it would be worth it, but to me the best current enthusiast car you can buy right now is a 2SS Manual Gearbox Camaro SS 1LE, and to answer your question, I think the only two cars that would make sense for you to get out your ZL1 for would be like an Orange 2SS 1LE or a clean Z28 I'm not even sure which one I'd be more interested in seeing on the channel, probably the manual gearbox 2SS 1LE unless you were going to modify the Z28 or take it to the drag strip and race Bluprint 1LE 😎
LOL! Thanks brother. I saw an orange SS at a dealership today. Would be sweet to cash ion on profit for mods. I would build up the Z28 since it is out of warranty. Lets see what others say
if you end up camming the z/28 definitely do it que I have a ss 1le and I love it and my car is faster around the track than the z28 its not by much so if you think your going to enjoy it do it bro its makes even more sense since your not gonna daily it
As long as it is American muscle then I love it. Chevy did say that by 2035 they will all by EV. And, that 2024 WILL BE the last year of the Camaro and they are doing a special send off (like the Blackwing) for Camaro for 2023 & 2024. Great job on the video and keep on rocking!
I like the Z28 but since you already have the ZL1, I would stick with it. If I was getting a Z28 it would have to have a/c. In case you didn’t know some came without it.
What a great video. Exactly what I needed to hear. I love all cars. Camaro was my first car love. However, I’ve been with Dodge since 2004. Currently drive a 2020 Widebody Scatpack Charger. Dodge may have 7 new editions but they are just sticker packages. Nothing more than that unfortunately. And the way they are setting things up Dodge is allowing for massive markups on all those vehicles. Which has led me to return home to the car I first fell in love with….the Camaro. I currently have two Camaros on order. A 2SS 1LE and a ZL1. I plan on going with whichever one goes into build status and cancelling the other. Like you I don’t race my car. Especially on the street or drag strip. I just like cars for the looks, the engine rumble, the exhaust note and that brief pull from the acceleration. The 2SS would probably be just fine for me. However I love the looks of the ZL1. I like knowing I am faster than most cars on the street lol. Even if I would rarely use the power I like knowing it is there. I ordered a manual in both as well. Nothing like driving a stick. Whichever car I end up with I know will be a great car and I look forward to coming “home” in the car world. Great video. Looking forward to more of your content!
Thanks a lot! Glad to know someone feels the same way I do. I think the 2SS 1LE is perfect but the looks of the ZL1 just does it for me. I wish I could have a Widebody Scatpack. I just want to see how they handle compared to the regular ones.
@@QueTheChaotic The Widebody Scat is a very nice car. Handles pretty well imo. Only reason I am selling is because I want a stick and I thought about ordering a 23 Challenger in a stick but the Camaro stick is just way better and I get GM discount so I can get a loaded ZL1 coupe for $67 brand new where as a loaded widebody scat challenger would run me $62....for the 5k I will take the better manual and that supercharger whine.
Bro thank you for this!! I have a SS 1LE and was debating about going ZL1 1LE. I love the curves and SS doe’s awesome. I just want a super charger lol.
I want to blow the doors off most vehicles so ZL1 is definitely under consideration specifically one with the 10 speed. My only concern is scraping pulling in out of driveways or parking lots. Is that an issue for you? 🤔
Good vidoe bro! I've def been searching for a zl1 and possibly thinking about trading the 2ss 1le but that car is so much fun and I haven't even gotten to really test the potential. I'm going to hang on a little bit longer but I def want the ZL1 in an auto lol. And 4k for brakes and rotors....that's def something to consider.
I bought a 2018 2SS. Then realized i made a mistake. So, I traded it in on a 19zl1. Now, I push 842rwhp on pump and man she wakes up on some E. That's my reason for the zl1 because the SS I would have needed to replace pistons and rods. I have 4 cars so my zl1 is driven about 2k a year.
I got the same 2022 color ZL1 on Friday cant wait for it to be out of limp mode .. I hope its fast my hellcat charger was fast as hell with the mods...
@@QueTheChaotic Not for me, but I only put 4k miles on it in the 4 years I had it. The plans were to boost it, but then I started reading all of the bad things with cylinder 7, and that put an end to those thoughts.
Also thanks for the review. Most of the reviews for these vehicles are the same. Your perspective is different although I cannot put my finger on exactly what it is, you are on to something for certain. No one talks about the tires, brakes, the cost of those things, and so on. I see a lot of low mile ZL1 Camaros with multiple owners. Any idea why that would be? I'm guessing they thought they wanted one, drove it, and for some reason they didn't. I'd be interested to get your perspective as an owner. Thx again
Thanks a lot. My ZL1 has been sold so I'm added to that list now. For it to be $15000 more than the SS 1LE, it wasn't as fun. It was dumb fast in a straight line but I can't utilize that power at all, not even at the tracks near me. It was the car I wanted but didn't need.
Appreciate your nuanced takes here, bro. I gravitate so much towards the ZL1 for the torque and the sound, but I plan to track my next car which I have never done before and hearing this take has me thinking a regular V6 or V8 with the 1le package should do it. This thing might legit get me (and others) killed lol. Hell, even Randy Pobst only has a V4 1le lol so the V6 or V8 would prob do it for my newbie ass.
That's it right there. I love the ZL1 on looks alone. As far as a need, the 4 Cylinder is probably just as fun to toss around if not more. I have a video where I lost to one at an autocross
@@QueTheChaotic I will check that video out! But ya, the ZL1 has a magnetic pull on me. It's almost like a sexy girl with a big butt that I know is not the best choice for me due to her being a bit crazy...but that big butt...can I resist it? lol. We will see. Not gonna buy anything for another year.
Good advice. I'm a Camaro owner for the past 5 years. Started with the 2.0 V4 turbo and drove the V6 for two weeks while I waited for my V8 LT1. So my question is, what kind of tites to use to prevent skid when taking off or accelerating from let's say constant 35 on highway to 70 all of the sudden? Was driving the other day and had a small scare when changed lines and hit the gas lol the car tail moved a bit to the left for a sec... what can i do to prevent that? Would specific tires fix it? And acceleration from 0 etc.
Enjoy all American muscle. Since you had a GT-350 what can you tell me about it. I just think it’s better then the GT and the GT-500. Flat plane crank is hard to beat. Looking at getting one next year your thoughts. Thanks and enjoy the channel.
I appreciate you man. I would put the GT350 as my top Mustang with the Mach 1 as a close #2. If you do get a GT350, make sure it was WELL taken care of. Those engines aren't bulletproof like the coyote. Revving out the Voodoo is quite the experience.
I hear you. I love a lot on the ZXL1 that the Z28 doesn't offer. I still want it though lol. I hear Mississippi has some with no mark up. You would have to find a dealer with allocations to order one. Not sure who does.
@@QueTheChaotic bunch of us were talking. Some of the group got a bit greedy and tried to make some money in the used car market. Sold their ZL1’s ss1le’s They made a bit of money. Now. They are trying to Oder a any v8 Camaro for 2023 and they being flat out told no.
Owned a 2016 gti, traded that in for a 2019 440i (500whp), now a year later I’m looking to either get a zl1, an m3, a gt350, or something else. Any ideas? Not sure I’ll get a gt350 anymore because of all the issues it has.
I have a friend selling his GT350 tomorrow and another one who bought one last week. It all depends on what you want most. The ZL1 is fastest. The M3 is the most versatile. The GT350 is a fun car to rev out. Do you want to mod?
I appreciate the shout out bro! Agreed with everything here, when I drove a Zl1 I did a second gear pull and back to neutral haha. Engagement on the street probably edges to the SS but the Zl1 is ridiculous performance. I was dying on the 2024 Ford Camaro LMFAO. Z28 over the ZL1 ... IDK we gotta chat about that hit me on IG LMFAO
That’s not a track car bro 😂it’s close but not necessarily the zl1 1le is the track car your suspension is set up for the street dnt get me wrong it’s set up very well but so much rubber in the suspension to be a track car the zl1 1le suspension is connected directly to the body of the car where as the base ZL1 is separated by a rubber bushing in the suspension
@@QueTheChaotic rolling races are dumb but still fun, hit it from a dig and then claim your cars fast, I have a 2010 2ss manual when I first for it I was shocked any dig I did I was left behind off the line, I did a dig with a 4 cylinder and he flew off the line. Turns out the 5th gens have something called torque management useless option 😂 when I put headers and tuned my 5th gen I turned off all the nicks and nanny's that hold it back, now when I do diggs I'm off the line right away with some wheel spin. My buddy just got a 2016 gt with a supercharger pushing 700+ as soon as he got it he was deivinf it home he called me after asking me what he could do to get more teaction 😹
@@QueTheChaotic let's just say I turned mine all off but havent turned the traction control fully off 😹😹 I did once and I was spinning in all first 4 gears lol
