I like AC sitting on the grid.....sweating my brains out inside the helmet.
Those seats are just awesome......GM finally did it right! They will sell alot of those seats if they bolt right in to other camaros.

Geez......who wants a ZL1 now?

The 1LE will remain the 'affordable' track-day option for those that want to drive their car everyday. I'm most likely going to get one since I doubt I'll be able to afford a Z28. At ~$40k its relatively achievable, and I like the fact that it has a stereo. 😄

I rather the z/28 . Not really big on the magnetic ride , I rather coil overs and the ls7 . That's my opinion

Incredible! This thing is awesome but it's probably going to be a bear to use as a daily driver. As atrack car absolutely incredible! It's like a 1LE + 11.

I still don't regret getting my 1LE this past Tuesday. This thing is going to have to be out of "MY" price range. You take what amounts to a $45K car and add Ceramic Brembos and an LS7. It's gonna rightfully be exspensive. IIRC the Brembos on a ZR1 Corvette were stated to be like $15K and we know how much an LS7 cost. Then they added carbon fiber. I can't afford it. I wouldn't mind owning it though.

All in all (with the exception of the hood and tail end) I think it's an INCREDIBLE car.

I was actually clapping watching the NY autoshow video. Glad I was alone!

The car is pretty much what many of the regulars in the Z/28 threads were wishing on. Good for them! And Chevy!

When people were guessing about what the "styling and performance" upgrads for the 2014 were going to be, I thought about ceramic brakes and a increase in hp for the ZL1. Hmmmmm, I wonder... Though, that would probably put the ZL1 back on top of the cost list (if the "most expensive Camaros" magazine quote is true). I guess we'll know soon...

GREAT car! It will definitely fill the void for those that wanted a true track ready Z/28.

Oh, and I was wondering how much the C7 seats were and if they would fit in the Camaros (airbags, heating = Camaro like). Now, they have these Recaros!!!

AGain, So so glad I pulled the trigger on my '13 AGM ZL1 !!!!!

This is my opinion only.... please don't criticize as this represents my likes and dislikes. Everyone thinks differently...

Z/28
PROS:
I like the wheels, but they are 1" smaller than ZL1

CONS:
1. You have to pay extra for A/C, Wtf, okay.... how much more?
2. Only 1 Speaker, wtf?
3. Manual adjusted front seats, again wtf
4. No HID or FOG lamps
5. Yes, tail lights do suck
6. Yes, hood has a dryer vent installed -it also sucks
7. No seat back pass through, this is actually a very nice feature
8. Interior sound damping mtl removed; so now you also hear the highway

I seriously doubt the sunroof and Nav will be an option
