Hey guys, just wanted to get your opinion. I own a 2010 Camaro 2LT with the RS package. But ever since I saw the ZL1 I just loved it. Now am thinking of trading it in for one close to where it is, the price on it is I belive $41,777. What do you guys think should I do the trade in?...also I know in my Camaro on the door panel there light strip that light up (not sure what is called) but is it the same on the ZL1 pics would defently would help thanks!

DO IT!

I just did this upgrade from a 13' 2LT/RS and I love it.

The ZL1 is fully loaded so you'll get your door panel lights.

It's the best time to pick up a ZL1 for around 40-42.5k right now.

Trust me you wont look back!

I went from a 2010 2lt RS to a 13 ZL1.....I looked at SS's and couldnt pull the trigger for that gain in power compared to the loss in mileage...then I drove the ZL1 and have no regrets what so ever!

Splitter · 01-23-2015, 03:04 PM

How many miles are on it?

As Boomer said: DO IT!

They might not even make the ZL1 in the 6th gen.

Roy6 · 01-23-2015, 03:08 PM

There 16800 miles on it

Doesn't sound like a bad deal depending on condition and model year.

I don't know about earlier models but on my 2015 the Ambient Lighting package was an option so the used one may or may not have it?

I wouldn't make not having it a deal breaker though - the car's performance will blow you away.

Hahaha. Those were just for new ones!

This one is used, obviously.
