Good morning, Camaro Comrades and Firebird Friends!

Great Videos!!
:thumbup:

Great videos, and thanks for posting

Now that's great customer service right there!!! Videos were great and very informative. Thanks Chevrolet and Camaro team!

Cool stuff, I guess the top speed, best lap, avg speed, avg lap, and lap time history features will help dispell any doubts people still might have about Chevy having issues with this beast being on a track.

How many times will I view these before mine arrives? Numerous. I think I already have the owners manual memorized.

AWESOME VIDEOS!!!! Ive been looking for a good video that give details on the launch control feature Thanks for the help

great video's we will use numerous times before going on track! got to love it.

Thanks, they were done very well and were extremely informative.

I cringed a little when they let the gas cap dangle onto the car body :yikes:

glad they made these videos cuz I hate reading :laugh:

I also confirmed today that the "no lift" upshift on manual transmission are independent of PTM modes...meaning you DO NOT need to be in PTM mode 1-5 in order to utilize the "no lift" shifts...you just need to be shifting at full throttle (past 5,500RPM) :thumbsup:

GREAT VIDEO'S
Just can't wait for mine to get here.

Hi Guys,

I just joined your website a few days ago I preordered my 2013 ZL1 coupe in orange with every options can't wait for it to come. The price with taxes in was $75,000. well in Toronto Canada anyways.

I was wondering is the 2013 ZL1 going to have more or the same horsepower? What do you think the ZL1 will be worth down the road?

i have never(only tried twice) to master the launch control on my "SS" both times i read the manual before trying,when i would let off the clutch,it would stick to the floor and could smell the clutch burning ,dont know if something was wrong or if i was'nt doing it correctly,

Just found these. What a great service to the customer. I hope they make these for the 1LE.

Nice vids! Thank you.

This is hands down the best high overview videos produced yet. I like they simplistic yet informative dialog style that is being used. I gives you just enough information to pique your interest and then refers you to the owners manual.

:thumbup:GOOD JOB GM:thumbup:

It's like Camaro porn! :drool:

I didn't get videos with my SS.

I'm gonna start a thread and complain.

:bellyroll:
:bellyroll:
:bellyroll:

Joking of course BUT every time I read up on the ZL1 I get a little less excited about keeping my car. :laugh:

Not really.

Yes really.

lol

No not really.

maybe a little.

:D Not really.

...

Anybody else notice the front left tire was pretty low (PSI) compared to the other three? :yikes:

The ZL1 videos affectionately remind me of this (the similarities are downright eery!):

Seriously guys, good luck with your ZL1's. :):chevy:

It is one freaking awesome machine. :thumbsup:

I wasn't posting it as a "yet unseen" video, so it's not an actual "repost".

I was just pointing out amusing similarities of concept between it and Chevy's new ZL1 vids.

Thanks for keeping an eye out though! ;)

Nice Job Camaro team. Great videos and great product support. Thanks.

awesome vids!!! its not natural for me to keep my foot on throttle 100% while shifting. i always forget the newer camaros have that option. cant wait to try that.

Are there ZL1 specific manuals that should have come with my car? My Ford Raptor came with 2 that were written just for the Raptor. I was a bit surprised when I got home and just had the standard Camaro manuals.

Yes I agree with you on the fully deepressed throttle and shifting. It's second nature to lift off the gas for a "second" when shifting, it will be Interesting getting used to after the break in time.
:popcorn:

I find those videos very informative ... I drive a 2011 SS, the tap shift modes in the ZL1 are similar to the SS, I learned about them through these videos though!
