As one of few members that have both the Z/28 and the ZL1 1LE, here is what i don't like about the ZLE, try driving it on a trailer, with out burning the clutch, its almost impassible, with out stalling the car 3 or 4 times, where on the Z/28 i can make it crawl all the way in with out stalling, that's my big grip about the car.

Might as well just get a coyote and boost the hell out of it. I personally had a 2015 5.0 with a Procharger, full bolt-on's and E85....Doesn't get better than one of them if you're just looking to go fast as F*ck down the 1/4 the coyote loves making lots of power....Hellcats are butt ugly and well yea....SKINNY TIRES. that's just me though.

If you could swing it financially, would you?
What did the dealer offer you for your trade? I only got 39k in trade my car, only has 8k miles. I wanted 42K... so no deal! This was for a hellcat...

39k with 8k miles is fair. Not sure what the tax situation is where you are but that’s a $41.3k offer when you figure in the sales tax deduct on the new car here in PA.

Hellcats are all braun, big fat cushy cars. Awesome looking and sounding but they’re like driving you living room couch compared to a Z/28.

No, I buy repo cars all the time at auction and they are worth just the same as other cars as long as they aren't beat up.

Wow, that a good offer if your car is a repo IMO.

I don’t think repo cars have clean titles do they, here in PA I thought they were salvage titled?

No, repo cars do not equal salvage title. All repo means is that the lien holder took possession of the vehicle for a default on the loan. Now, some repo cars get destroyed much like foreclosed houses. But more often than not the people fall on bad times and let the cars go back to the banks, or the owners dies and the estate doesn't want to deal with the car or they owe more than they vehicle is worth.

Your right. I’m think theft recovery for some reason. Duh.

Carry on.
