PDR? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Before I ended up going the Corvette route, I had seriously been looking at the ZL1. The PDR on the Corvette wasn't in the first year...though I believe it's an option for all models of the Corvette now.

I was curious if the current ZL1 had an option for a PDR as well?

If you don't know what I'm talking about...this is the PDR with track overlay on the Z06.

No option for it.

Check out the Garmin VIRB XE:

It'll accomplish basically the same thing (although admittedly it is not quite as slick as the integrated PDR).

Not yet...

It's available as an option in the gen 6 (I think it's coming on the 1LE), so I'm sure the next Z(L1/28) will have it.

I know for sure it's not an option on the 6th Gen and 95% sure the 1LE as well. But definitely hope the Z gets it.

Now that I have a Z06, I'm seeing features I didn't know about and didn't exist for my SS or Z51, so I'm hoping some trickle down to the Camaros as well.

It was one reason I traded in my Z51 so quickly...the whole PDR concept was new in 2015, and I had a 2014. One other one is a front mounted set of cameras that help for parking on the front end, adding to the backup camera that was on the 2014. Also kind of curious if the higher end Camaros (ZL1, Z28, etc) get that kind of treatment as well.

Exactly... I was pretty excited about PDR for this reason. I'm not getting a vette but I am getting the next Z.

I'd love a PDR option ...even a nice aftermarket one for our ZL1's

It's that 5% that will get you..........

That's why I left it that way. It's new stuff just out and lookie there.

This means 99% the Z will get it too.

With how nice the 1LE is can you imagine what the ZL1 will be.
