'13 or '14 1LE dilemma... solved... for me...

'13 or '14 1LE...? Silver 1SS with dual mode V8 music maker and nothing else.

I want the best bang for the buck, the best handling muscle car for the least cash, so a '13 1LE would be the way to go now that the '14 Camaro refresh is out (better deals, right). Plus I see at Chevy.com that the '13 has 1,000 bucks cash back! Nice.

But wait... (insert record scratching noise here) the new front fascia looks good to me and the new rear is not a deal breaker, so that put me on the fence ... until I see that the manual Recaros from the Z28 will be available in the '14 SS. Oh, hail (sic) yes, I must have those seats. Thanks to Ford for making their Recaros available in the GT.

Well there goes my least cash theory, dang it. Let's see now, no cash back plus the cost of the Recaro seats option, how much will that be I wonder? I hope the seats can be optioned alone and not packaged with a performance enhancing sunroof or something. I may never pull the trigger, argh.

Last orders for the 13 model needs to be in by April 18/19 (can't remember which). The order info will be available for the 2014 just before that, but pricing will not be out until June ish. Start of production for the 14MY is July.

It looks like I will be ordering a 2014 SS, 1LE, NPP w/recaros if I can get that with out having to purchase other options. If not I will order a 2013 and just add seats later.

The Recaros will be available on the SS coupe. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=285431

I thought it would be an agonizing decision for me too cause I love the 2013 1LEs so much, but I'm going with a 2014. Was gonna get the RS package but I think I will trade that for the Recaros.

I love my 13 1LE. I will be trading it for a 14 1LE with the Recaro seats in the red hot color (torch red) I hope.

Just curious. Those going with the 2014 over the 2013. What is the selling point? The styling or the recaro option?

For me its the styling. I always liked the non RS headlights but planned on getting RS when I was looking at a 13'. Now to me the non RS heads and tails looks better without the chrome strip so I have a chance to save money by not getting that package. The Recaros are a huge bonus and if they aren't priced to the moon I'll be getting them. I'm also waiting to see the new color HUD and am glad that they didn't change the interior much. I haven't heard anything about a wheel change so hopefully the SSX wheels are still around and look good with the new fascias.

X2. I'm surprised GM hasn't given a date for when we can expect to see the new 1LE & ZL1.

I'm sooo glad I ordered a 13' ; the IOM and VR colors are no longer available!! Wow I was lucky to order a 13' this late!

After a while, I think the 'refresh' does look better...Cant wait to see the 14' 1LE and ZL1
