Is the LT1 Camaro the Performance Value on Market? Big Power on a Budget! 

Love the LT1, my younger brother has a 2022. Ran a 12.19 with stock 245 all seasons at track least year! That 10spd trans is no joke either for roll racing too.

Damn I had no idea it was$37k,I thought they were$48. Yeah you can't beat that for the price.

Scat Pack thrust for less $$$ than the cost of a RT. If you can live with a small back seat and adjust to the blind spots (I know I can) then this is a very appealing package. I'd add sunroof, Bose and wheel upgrade and just barely hit $40K MSRP. If discounts come back, this could be a steal....

I have owned my 2021 LT1 since new, have 17k on it , love every mile. It is my daily driver and with a few old school mods, my personal best is 11.44 in the 1/4

I have a 2020 LT1 which has a few options such as leather recaros, 4 piston brembos with red painted calipers,and red seatbelts. Also have carbon fiber gas lid. So with those few options it makes it not as basic. I bought it for weight savings and fair price. Manual is the way to go. Put about $3000 into mods and you can get close to 500 to the wheels. Intake, long tubes, e85 tune and a tire you can hurt feelings. Great video

I have a 2021 LT1, pushing 475 to the crank with simple mods, these motors in the ss and LT1s are fantastic!! I love my car… it’s become an extension of myself haha

I ordered a 2023 ( and got it!). Absolutely best bang for the buck. Just as you said: Simple and basic...and fast. LOVE this car

As a 10 speed LT1 owner I can speak to how much more car you need to win against one in a straight line. On the street, showroom stock Hellcats have no chance from red light to red light, Scats do even worse, Camaro SS’s show their weight, by 60mph they’re a car’s length behind, Mustangs keep up the best but it really takes a Tesla or high trim BMW if you want to win.

Beautiful!!! I was a Camaro guy long before I was a Challenger owner, the fact that it’s a manual makes it even better!!

I absolutely love my LT1. Has all the options. Best value for your dollar 💵

Yes. I am hoping to see you build up a camaro. I had a 2020 2ss Shock green. I fit okay, 6'2" and at that time I was up near 348. It was like a cockpit, but very cool. Just didn't like the tiny side windows. There is no resting your arm on the window sill nor a drive-thru at the bank, But the power was awesome. Definitely felt spread throughout the rpms.

I agree X and if I didn’t already own a bought and paid for 2018 R/T Scatpack, that I absolutely adore, I would certainly go along with your recommendation and pick one up! 😎

Nailed it with this review! Failed Dodge Challenger deal sent me to the LT1 6 speed and I have no regrets plus EXTRA CASH for mods! Mine will never see the strip or track (manual great for rural back roads, hills and curves). 10 speed auto is the faster car recommended for those who track or drag race.

I bought well optioned black 2022 manual m6 LT1 last year.. and for all the reasons you mentioned...its an incredible street car! Traded my 17 grabber blue mustang and its the best decision I ever made! Gm NAILED it with this sleeper Camaro! And the low production numbers are amazing to! I've surprised my share of stangs and challengers with this evil 6.2 V8. my npp exhaust is incredible as well!

Have to agree. Been doing a little shopping. Camaro is definitely best bang for the dollar.

Stingray Chevrolet is awesome, bought a couple of C7 Z06s from them. I’m low on the list for the new Z06. Another great video.

Great video !!! Love Chevy love Camaro ❤

I love my 2022 LT1 Camaro 6 speed. I bought this car to go on the Hot Rod power tour in 2023. This car was so awesome on the tour. I rand it through its pieces and it came back for more. I have a full out 4.40 drag race car that I compete with but TBH this car is way more fun

I went with the 1SS which is the next step up from this car. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles as the 2SS or the 1LE but perfect for my needs. Recaros, roof 1LE wheel and tire package and plenty of money left over for more engine mods. This is gonna be a street fighter not a road course car. Had to go with the manual, yeah I've heard about how the auto is faster but I really don't care. Manual all the way.

Amazing, I'll be buying one for sure

WOW. I did not expect that nice sound. 👍

GREAT VIDEO. I loved it & subscribed immediately after. ⛽️💯🙏🏼

This was absolutely my choice a couple of years ago before Covid, but my wife reminded me that we have kids. I still dream about the build I could have had!

This would be good for one of your new builds!

Lt1, 10speed, active exhaust, rs package and tech package. All you need! Then get some aftermarket rear wheels for some bigboy tires.

a 2011 V8 Camaro convertible (any trim) with a manual transmission in green is my dream modern car

I love my 2.0 turbo it's fast for a 4 cylinder but yeah I'm looking for an LT1 as well

This is my favorite muscle car right now, and I'm a mustang, and multiple vintage Ford owner.

Awesome content buddy 👍💪

I love my 2021 lt1 fast and light weight 22mpg combined with a 6.2 liters that’s outstanding

This would be a sick project for you racerx, if you decided too. You could mod it and keep it N/A and go low 10s

Man I love my 2020 SS manual. 44k miles and flawless.

GM does have value at the base trim levels. I had a LT1 C8 which is a great car.

That Gen 5 ZL1 would be a great buy ! 580 hp

Great info X

Definitely an amazing value proposition for this car. I personally would probably go with a used C6 Z06 for the money but I could see the value.

🔥🔥 I love my 22 LT1

Sounds good and looks nice, but best of all it's a hell of a price! Great review! (Yeah, Rhyme intended) 😛😛

They are a good value. Unfortunately I went to test drive one and being 6’4”, i had to turn my head to the side to avoid hitting the headliner so I didn’t even bother driving it to see how I liked it.

You're right! Man I been watching you for 3 plus years. Thought I was following the channel. Now I am. Now I'm contributing to help slowly fill one of your nitrous bottles I guess. Lol

Traded in my 21 ss for a 23 2ss 1le. Decided to go with the manual for the track. I do agree if you’re racing quarter mile you should go with the 10 speed. I prefer the road course and I think that is where the manual shines. Love the auto rev match for the manual.

U need to build one!!!!!🔥🔥🔥

Pretty mint id probably take over a 5.0 maybe you should get it x

I wanted to order one but the dealership said they were not allocated to get one . So I went across the street and ordered my 1320 Challenger

Those are beasts… my friend bought one! FBO E85 and he’d roll Hellcats! Great review Mr Sir senior X🤘

I had an ss and got this now and holy it sounds like a vacuum cleaner

You can talk till your blue in the face about 6th gen Camaros BEING THE DEAL OF THE CENTURY, but the anti GM crowd dont actually want performance. ALL ALPHA chassis cars are superior to their American and European counterparts simply on the chassis alone. Motortrend said this years ago, and no other manufacturer has a answer to GMs handling. Its BETTER than any modern BMW chassis upon what the Alpha chassis was designed. The whole line up was best bang for buck FOR PERFORMANCE CARS. If you set them up for track, you can build reliable fast cars for dirt cheap.

can you recommend someone to install a cam and intake package on a 22 LT1 ? thanks for any input

I’m really impressed with the newer Camaros. My buddy has a 22 SS convertible. That 10 speed is amazing too. If I was ok with having a car payment I’d strongly consider buying one.

🏆Racer X 🏆 🍀got R done 😎✌️

The auto would be a good starter for a drag car

had a 2021 LT1 and paid 407. started working for CDJR dealer so i got a Wrangler.....went back to get some quotes on the LT1s lease like i had and poof! 760+ a month payment?!!?!??!! So in the end....make sure you finance it. i pay 542 for a wrangler lease 15k+ value than the LT1 i got quoted on...

That's exactly why I bought my 2020 Hellcat challenger in 2020. It was the basic basemodel. I bought it for the power and not all the other stuff. It's the lightest of the fat cats. Every pound counts, especially in hellcats.

I like the way my Mustang GT drives compared to the Camaro I almost bought.

If you want one. Better do it now. GM hasn't committed to any ICE LT1 after year 2024.

The new Mustang GT is still sticking with MT-82, albeit an updated one. Only the Dark Horse gets the Tremec 3160, which is pretty ridiculous to me considering that manual I4 and V6 Camaros use it.

Great video! What are the rear end gear options from mfg and after market? Great job.

I just bought a 2013 dodge charger srt8 and I was trying to make it fast what should I do?

Brake pads usually give it away for me

Correct me if I'm wrong. The manual v8 camaros have no afm or dfm? All auto v8 camaros do have the afm/dfm? I've been reading about horror stories of lifter and cam problems, in silverados mostly but I'd assume this could affect camaros. The engine would need partially torn down to remove all of the problem prone components correct?

Yes they are beating new stock gt500’s naturally aspirated

Should do a new rs3 video

I thought this video was going to be about how cheap and easy it is to do a head/cam swap on a Camaro vs a Mustang.

i prefer an a10 but an m6 might be better with an lt1 pkg. if theres no track mode. 40kish is a bargain.

Since gm is investigating in new v8s, I wonder if they’ll move over to the larger muscle cars with classic looks.modern smaller muscle already has the mustang, while dodge decided to go the vacuum cleaner route.

Any recommendations for some decent mods for the car I own a 2021 Camaro LT1 and looking to do some modifications to it nothing crazy or too expensive just enough to have some fun with

It is a crazy number, 300HP is all you need.

The LT1 is nice, but unfortunately, they are going away as well. Overall, the Mustang is still a better Daily Driver, but man you can't argue with that price. Psst. I'm one of the 21 Bro.

Which transmission does it have though? Is it a Manual?

It has the ss hood scoope you forgot that and also v6 have no quad tip exhaust but who would know lol

They are lol. Chevy used to have a great lease deal on them. Like $400 or $500 a month

That's a great price for what u get. Is that your next project?

Fabulous car that is done in by the poor visibility and cramped interior. I would get one in SoCal where I could have the roof (convert) open all the time!

How much is it to insure?

$37k is bargain, my local dealership want $50k for it

I heard so many rumors saying the Camaro is going in 2024 does anyone know if that’s a done deal or just a rumor? I want an lt1 or an ss

In an automatic, I think it would be just right with mods.

I cried after watching this

They are fun vehicles to drive, but have you sat in their seats? They are the worst seats of the top 3 and even caused my back pain to start earlier in the day when I drove one. They need to fix that.

What the hell dealership is that I've been waiting 7 months on my 3lt v6 convertable

I thought they had v8s with basic interior and the 1lt was v6 or 4T

I just don't like Stingray Chevrolet. I've had two friends tell me two different stories about how Stingray Chevrolet did them wrong. So, just for that reason I would not purchase a vehicle there. Prefer Ferman Chevrolet in Tampa or Winter Haven Chevrolet. The Camaro LT1 does kick ass! I even like the name LT1, which was the name of the 350 small blocks put in so many Corvettes and Z28s back in the early 1970s.

I'm so stupid to buy a v6 camaro in 2018. I should have got an SS

To me it looks better than the SS since its not as ugly

Pretty early

The saddest part of the Camaro is they aren’t allowed to compete performance wise with the corvette. Same helped doom the Buick grand national and gnx. They were both quicker than the corvette and that raised hell at gm. If the Camaro was unchained and allowed to do what they wanted they could be gro. A person in the market for a corvette won’t boa Camaro. A 4.2 liter turbo v6 could be a great car. An updated gn or typhoon engine would be mean and wouldn’t effect corvette sales . Differentiate it from the corvette with trim, aluminum instead of fiberglass. And keep the engine in the front. The Camaro should be the scatpack and the corvette should be the demon or viper. Gm ruined many cars because the corvette was under powered. Even the hurican was quicker around a track than the aventador, but didn’t expect their sales.if the gnx or Camaro is quicker simply make the corvette quicker and better, don’t ruin the Camaro. Always disagreed with that decision.

Why not a new Mustang gt starting at 38k then a dealer installed wipple less than 45k for 580whp

👍🏾🤜🏾

Now it is funny how the most expensive muscle /pony car is now the cheapest

Did they make the car coming from the manufacturer that way or did someone actually put the V8 and the V6 body is that someone project

Is the Lt literally the lt1?

37k is still more money than I make in 2 years....

Keep saying 37 base price, after taxes, dmv fees, gap insurance, extended warranty you going to be close to 50K.

It’s a sleeper.

A budget?? They cost damn near 100k

Wasn't manufactured for a drag car..simple

No, but the Dark Horse Stang Is!

The automatics shouldn't exist.

That's a cayman....

I think you're stalking my history. Because dodge and Ford have consistently raised prices, the LT1 is looking better and better before the car goes away.
