LA car show media day. First time looking at the 2016's in person. They didn't have the 4 or 6 cylinders. Only SS, anyhow I think I'm sticking with my 1LE.

It's like an after thought. Hey man, thanks for the design, but where are we going to put the badges? And the guy said, the caterers already paid. The badge placement makes just as much sense is what i just wrote.

Another 1LE snob making snarky comments about the lesser V6 and I4 models. I can't wait until the aftermarket really picks up for that little LTG 2.0L turbo so they can blow the doors off V8 Camaro snobs.

It was a joke. I had a 1LT and loved that car. Lighten up Francis. Should I edit because of your delicate constitution?

No, don't edit it bro. Keep up the ego because that new little 4 cylinder turbo with some easy mods is going to embarass a lot of V8 owners, especially 1LE owners.

I have no interest in feeling delicate because us V6'ers are at the bottom of the barrel according to the V8 guys.

Wow 6th Gen looks great in the vert!

nowhere in his post was he a snob. all he said was that they didn't have any I4's or V6's there. and to me it sounds like hes keeping his 1LE because he likes it more than the upcoming SS.

kinda seems like someone actually has a V6 inferiority complex, as opposed to the OP having a 1LE superiority complex...

Bro, your an idiot. First, for using the term bro, and second for what you said to the OP. He simply made a statement as to what he was able to see. Don't feel so damn inferior. No one here is putting your car down...you on the other hand, that's a whole different story.

PS: OP, thanks for the pics, and were you putting us Camaro guys down by showing pictures of the Vettes and Viper. What are you trying to say? I think I should be pissed at you.....maybe not!

NJBourne23 · 11-19-2015, 09:06 AM

I have a V6 and it just goes over my head these days. Is it annoying when people bitch about a car that has kept the series afloat for the most part since sales for the V6 are through the roof, yeah. Just shrug it off and let people say what they want. I don't think it's meant toward anyone directly and I only saw the edited post so I can't comment on what it was before. Just enjoy the pics and just remember, they wouldn't have built it, especially the 4cyl Turbo if they wouldn't sell. No one wants to have a 0-60 Camaro of 20 seconds.

Side note: I read that they are bringing the ZR1 or something like that back which is is a step above the Z06? Don't quote me exactly but the car was quoted as having ridiculous HP and a real head turner.

homewrecker · 11-19-2015, 09:29 AM

To be fair I edited the verbiage of my post and did mention before the edit, there were only V8's, and that's the way it should be! And I thought that was funny because i know how people get riled up on cylinders here. And my first 5th gen was a 1LT. So I apologize to Paul, it was really a joke. After all, we are all car guys and gals and when I come on here I love looking at pics of any gen 5, and I'm just wanted to share some pictures. Let's just focus on the badge placements!
