I'll never trade my car in for a Ford. I don't care how good it looks or drives... Yes I'm one of them. lol

Anyone that thinks the 6th gen won't be a better car is high.. It will be a better car all around, be prepared for the 5th gen to look dated real quick....

And I love my Camaro and plan on keeping it for a few more years..

I just cant do it I cant trade my 1LE in for a 6th Gen. I know that performance will be better and the drive will probably be even better but.... This car fits me exactly the way I want.

So I've decided to wait and purchase my wife a car she has always wanted. A brand new 2017 Corvette. I have time to pay off mine and get her a new one. So with out regret I will be a 5th gen owner for the rest of my life. Not to bad considering its the best car I have ever owned.

Thank you Chevrolet!!!! for building such a complete car!!!!

Please pass on my gratitude to the engineers, designers, and builders!!!

It is good to see posts like this. People who have had issues or complaints are always the loudest while those who are content to happy are generally quiet. So thanks for posting this up.

I wouldn't do a gt350 or even a 500. But I really like what I see and read about the R
Won't get crap for a trade so I might keep the 1le and give it to one of my kids.
it really is an awesome car. But I'm in the now and love new things

Sorry my friend you will never own a GT350R ; 37 will be built!!! The R just have Carbon. Get à GT350 and upgrade it. This new GT350 will be the ultimate N/A car to own.

As for the 1LE, its an awesome car and its the best car Ive ever owned. The 6th gen will be fast, its gonna need the MR suspension, and some sticky tires to be equal to the 1LE.

sentimental value is worth more than any "rare" car... Congrats op!

Ir0nM4n · 05-08-2015, 03:04 PM

This is not about what is better. This is about enjoying a car so much so that you want to pay it off and keep it for those days. No doubt I will purchase a couple of more cars in the future.

I see a two car garage with a 1LE & Z51 in it...
