To keep it simple, the 1LE is a track focused camaro. Think of it like a big go-kart. Best $3,500. I have EVER spent.

From here, thanks Rocky1974.

Package also includes forged wheels 20 x 10 up front, 20 x 11 in back 285/35 20's, if I recall correctly, on all four corners, different gearing within the transmission, 3.91 rear end gears, a strut tower brace, short throw shifter, some interior differences (flat bottom steering wheel and alcantara covered steering wheel and shifter). I probably left one or two other things out too.

It is ridiculously good value for the money. The wheels alone are worth a significant chunk of the $3500.00 and the suspension components detailed above sell for $1500.00, just for the parts, to folks who'd like to upgrade their SS (like me) or V6.

Just the suspension componentry was well worth the money, and if I'd found this forum before purchasing the car, rather than after, I would have gone for the whole package. As it is, by the time I get new wheels and tires, I'll have spent well over the package price to replicate it.

You can get the Recaros in 2013s I thought?

It takes the SS and makes it sharper and harder in all the right ways.

The trans and diff and steering wheel and shifter and wheels and fuel pump are all out of the ZL1. All significant upgrades.

Basically a N/A ZL1. I bought mine for 35k with 21k km. For the money they are tough to beat. Get one and you will not be disappointed.

Okay, this might be a stupid question, or maybe I didn't read this right but... You can get a V6 1LE??? Or are those just components for those who want to upgrade their V6 with 1LE components?

If I remember correctly, the diff is not the same as the ZL1. I wish that were true. We have standard SS diff.

Peace,

You are right about that. My last car was an 03 Cobra. Really hard to beat the low end supercharged torque they make. If you have never experienced that sensation before the Camaro should suffice, but to those that know better well......

Just the components listed for those who want to upgrade their suspension.

Swag1LE gives a more complete list of upgraded componentry that is included in the complete 1LE package.
