Is the 1LE enough? Convince us.

Curious, for those that already have a track tricked out Camaro.

Is the 1LE enough to get you to buy one?

It could be if you have a Camaro that already performs close to a 1LE you want to wait and see what the 6th Gen holds. Will Camaro5 be covering Camaro6?

Can you be talked into it?

Wondering what everyone is thinking......

It's enough for me

I'll be ordering my 1LE in the early spring.

not enough for me. I can adjust mine for each track and put the smack on a 1LE (Speaking from experience)

It would have been for me except I already have too much into my 2012 to trade for a '13. Not to mention the beating I'd take on trade.

Impossible. They haven't shipped the first one yet.

I would say Jeremywes probably knows his car well enough to understand the dynamics of the track and surmise from the "first rides" whether his car has the juice or not.

That's a seriously good looking car. The 1LE I ordered is Summit White.

It would have been if it were out when I got one, but there's no way I'd trade mine in. The 7-8k in lost value could easily go towards mods that will let you beat one. And I'd want to do most of the same mods to the 1LE anyways which would cost that much more.

I really like these cars, but the money I have in mine and how good it runs now makes it a no go. Put an LS7 in there and mine goes back to stock and in for a trade for sure.

I am feeling the same way. If I was buying right now no way I would buy anything else. I want one but man the hit we would take.

Can anyone talk us into it?

East to get to LS7 power level probably for less than an LS7 1IE would cost. IMO.

I would buy a 1LE in a heartbeat if I didnt have so much into my 2010. I think

its the best value you can get for any car on the market.
