Just traded a '12 CTS-V for a '14 ZL1 - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Wow, that's great; Congrats. I could never imagine trading from a CTS-V, as I have so much respect for them (I think that their recaros may be the best seats you can find in a regular manufactured automobile).

Good luck with it.

Congrats!!!!

Very nice ride!!!

hotlap · 05-14-2014, 07:10 PM

Congrats. Life is about experiencing. Sounds like you've had, and are having, some great ones!

CamaroTom · 05-14-2014, 07:26 PM

Awesome ride congratulations! Did you get the Recaros in the ZL1?

Also the only exterior change to the ZL1 for 2014 was the updated rear bumper, trunk, and spoiler. The front end stayed the same.

Congrats on the new car can't say upgrade because they are both great cars to own and welcome to the forum.

Nice talking to you yesterday Chett!! I have your springs sitting here by my desk, and I look forward to meeting you tomorrow!!! Gorgeous Cars.....both of 'em!!! Lemme know what time you plan on getting here tomorrow, so I can make sure I'm not at lunch.

Thanks Keith and Everyone else for the positive comments. See you tommorow Man.

Did not have the Recaros in the ZL1 or Caddy. I hear they are nice. Very glad to be in a 6-speed manual again. I really missed driving.

My V was incredible, but it didn't look like that when I bought it new. Thats what is so Wicked about these ZL1's. Not much you need or can do for the look I wanted.

ruquik · 05-16-2014, 10:29 PM

Where is this caddy at now ?

2NASSTY · 05-16-2014, 11:29 PM

Dimmitt Chevrolet Clearwater, Florida. Still for sale I believe.

Mr Monte · 05-17-2014, 01:04 AM

CTS-V will be my next car. I took a new 2014 CTS-V for a test drive yesterday. Dealer offered $10k off MSRP. Gotta love the ZL1 though.

My wife is debating about replacing her Camaro (2012 SS/RS) with a new ATS V6 AWD or a used Camaro ZL1. The 2.0L turbo ATS we drove was garbage but the V6 AWD was pretty peppy & nimble.

No! You were supposed to keep both.

Great Looking Car Neighbor!, Maybe see you on the road someday, happy trails.

I know Man. That was the Plan. Just made no sense the more I thought about it over the weekend. I can only drive one at a time, and the Caddy was not going to get any faster without me cracking a valve cover or putting drugs on it. A 10.6 - 10.7 Caddy still under Warranty!!!

At the end of the day, I had to go with my heart and what I wanted to do next. i will put a post out to the CTSV forum to let them know and that NASSTY is still available. My next post on this forum validates that I made the right move in my eyes.

I may be back Ray. Let's stay in touch regardless.
