traded my stroker SS for a 2021 zl1
So I did it, finally free of things to get a newer zl1 I got a good deal for 72k -trade in and took it on a wild cherry automatic with all the options I would have ordered on a new one and it originated in Florida and how a ford dealership in Medford Oregon got it?
It obviously had to be from someone who frequented Camaro 6 forum I believe ad it has a Elite engineering e2x catch can installed with Elite hoses, and a Rotofab dry CAI and a cable dipstick, so they modded wisely and I bought a little extended warranty to make sure they cover it..... And frankly I just have to buy some floor mats and not much but the mud Flaps I have coming...wife won't let me put the Let's go Brandon edition emblems on it...LOL I will enclose some pics, I will eventually frequent Camaro six, I have been busy and its good to be alive and break them loose doing 80.... I used to be a real regular on here, I sold my Camaro though I loved it for the money to make the payments low, I just put a set of fresh valve springs and brakes and rotors on it and detailed it and got what I wanted with 43 on the odometer.... Anyone know someone in Florida who ditched a beautiful ZL1? Going to have to get some Continentals on it soon theres only 6500 miles on it and they are close to the wear bar for the f-1's. https://imgur.com/IvW9DRl https://imgur.com/pe1k8wD heres some of the many incarnations of my ten year old 13 2SS also someones going to love her.... https://imgur.com/zTM19MK https://imgur.com/YD3jux2 https://imgur.com/AXxMwBY https://imgur.com/Kpxw3Sg https://imgur.com/S5QOHOP Yes I am still alive and its good to be even working at a state Penitentiary.... Comments are always welcome......

Congratulations and have fun with the new toy!! As much as I try though I can’t get past the looks of the 6th gen, so I dumped the money into my 13 SS.

Agree with the looks on 6th gen SS but the ZL1 is starting to grow on me

I like the styling of the 6s, just not a big fan of the excessive tech. If I were buying new I'd get a minimum option LT1 for a daily. For a track toy I'd still like a heavily modded '18 SS 1LE. I really like rough-idling, high HP N/A powered vehicles.

Very nice color, Christian. And a bonafide beast of a car. And yes, always better to be working at the Penitentiary than being a resident there!

I like the color, and hp of a positive deplacement supercharger to break the tires loose like a hooligan. Yeah down to the wear bars on rear tires, no surprise. More fun, less tread.

I'm not smart enough to own and drive a ZL1.
I get in to enough trouble with a fairly stock gen 5 SS, a ZL1 is zero to jail in under 4 seconds! |

Damn Christian, that's awesome! Not going to lie though, I am a bit surprised that you were able to let go of your baby. I know how you felt about that car and how much work you did to it.
I hope you enjoy the hell out of this new ride though. Best of luck with that beast man!
