Just traded in my 10 SS for this 13 1LE - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Nice choice!! OP, I'm not sure what you had done to your 10 SS but the Gen 5 1LE bang for buck , especially at that price, that is hard or impossible to beat! Pure driving excellence. I remember test driving the "standard SS" back in 2013 with a manual and thinking it's soft, not responsive, (to steering inputs) and such. Not so with this beast! Get ready for the inevitable "permagrin". :-)

So much so that I just drove home in 120° weather here in Phoenix, radio off, windows down just so I could hear that exhaust note.

Your tips look like the exhaust is GM NPP and maybe the previous owner did the flaps fuse pull. My flaps don't really work anymore, but I could care less, it still sounds fantastic. lol I love accelerating by cars and having heads turn. :-)

This here exactly. The other morning I was trying to catch up to another 5th gen on the road, by the time I did, he was stopped at his light and I was trying to beat mine I'm sure he must have thought a train went by him as I went by. I wasn't trying to be a douche, that's just the way it went down

The 10 was all stock. I kept thinking of putting an exhaust on it, a CAI. Looking for a strut tower brace to help with rigidity. Glad I just upgraded all together. The 1LE is just so much more car
