Don't get a 1LE. You will hate it.

I would say it depends on what your intentions are. If you plan to track it or just love the look of the 1LE then it's a no brainer. However if you just want the rumble of the V8 and go cruising then a regular SS is the way to go.
Also worth mentioning is the 1LE is manual only so that's a deal breaker for some. Manual is my preference so it was an easy decision for me. Hope this helps! |

Ok, ok... Since you hate the 1LE so much, I'll trade you straight up; my 1LS for your ratty old 1LE with no extra charge to you to take it off your hands....

I had a 12' 2SS 45th and liked it but going to a 13' 2SS 1LE showed there is quite a difference. Handling is much better, acceleration is better due to the 3.91 gears & close ratio trans, the shorter throw shifter lifted from the ZL1 is better and I like the distinct cosmetic differences that set it apart (wheels, hood wrap, steering wheel & shift knob) .
My only "gripe" if you can call it that is maybe finding the right tire for the 1LE if I need to have it for off season driving. Right now it's a garage queen during poor weather and planned that way for winter months but who knows what the future really holds.

Thanks for the input. I guess I should of been a little more specific. I'm going to drive it mostly out ridding around not much at the track. I like to cornering fast on the back country roads. Really like the look of the 1le.

Even if you don't like the 1LE, it's a great deal. You can sell the wheels/tires and cover most, if not all of the cost of the package.

I haven't owned a camaro since my 89 Iroc-Z convertible. That was a great car. Was not a fan of the gen 4 cars so I owned a BMW 3 series, VW Toureg V8, HHR SS (still own) since then. I'm now in a market for a camaro and while I like the SS and love the ZR1, it's the 1LE that really has me back buying a camaro. I drove one a few weeks back and absolutley loved it.
Good luck on your decision! |

Is the fuel mileage different between the the SS and 1le with the different gears?

No. The differences are only in 1st through 4th. Final drive ratio is the same.
