Since these are CTF Camaros, some may not be complete with spoilers, decals, etc.

There won't be hash marks. Just a wrapped hood. :(

I was in Detroit at the Grand Prix and had to drive by the Camaro Corral several times a day as our paddock for the World Challenge teams was out in BFE. I saw this 1LE and about three ZL1 verts. Wish I had the time to go over and check the verts out more closely!

I spent a lot of time with the Bondurant Camaro team looking at their set up for road racing (Andy Lee won both races). Glad to see them running a similar StopTech/Pfadt setup as I am.

I figure a stripped down track version should have no sunroof. No anything just performance goodies. Seems like a marketing compromise more that a true stripped down Camaro.

I guess the hash marks are gone.
Assuming it's painted body color under the wrap!....lol. This one has an RS badge in the grill. Since it doesn't have the magnetic ride stuff, it seems it's just bolt on parts, I wonder if there's a possibility of retro fitting the parts to lesser Camaros? Would be nice if Chevy would make a very reasonably priced retro fit package for us.

The 1LE is going to be a great trim level for the Camaro. For 2013, the 1LE package is offered only on 1SS and 2SS coupe models, featuring a 6.2L LS3 V-8, which is rated at 426 horsepower (318 kW) and 420 lb-ft of torque (569 Nm). In addition, 1LE is only available with a six-speed manual transmission.

While the Camaro SS features a Tremec TR6060-M10 for all-around performance, the Camaro1LE features an exclusive Tremec TR6060-MM6. Paired with a numerically higher 3.91 final drive ratio, the close-ratio gearing of the transmission is tuned for road-racing performance. As with the ZL1, the 1LE transmission features a standard air-to-liquid cooling system for track use. The 1LE also features exclusive, monotube rear dampers instead of the twin-tube dampers on SS models. The new hardware allowed engineers to tune the 1LE suspension to focus on optimal body-motion control while preserving much of the ride quality and wheel-motion control of the Camaro SS.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me.

Thanks for posting the pix Becky. We tried to hijack it in Atlanta but Scott just wouldn't have it. Maybe next year you could get a couple of your cars thrown on the trailer and head on down. Everyone has different tastes and may not be everyone's cup of tea but it's purpose is not to sit around and look pretty.

Ya....I don't think I have ever liked the performance features so much of a car and disliked the appearance so much.

I, too, only like the wheels. I do not like the vinyl hood or spoiler. I can live with the spoiler, but the vinyl wrap on the hood has to go. Hopefully it can be removed without any negative impact to the paint.

Did you get any pictures of the interior? I heard the 1LE will get microfiber steering wheel and shift knob. Which I am not a fan of either. The concept picture showed an awesome leather interior. Then the production will have microfiber. Argh.

This is the concept car. 1LE will have the 4 piston calipers. They will be red though. However, anything could change between now and build time.

The 1LE will have 285/35/20s all the way around. This car actually had the staggered setup of the ZL1 on it. Wish it was coming that way.

Note it also has the ZL1 side skirts which won't be on the car either :(

I looked at my other photos and have nothing more close up of the wheels. Only a different angle of what I took on Friday.
