Gen 5 1LE owners thoughts on the V6 2017 1LE?
Will you be giving them a warm welcome to the 1LE club?

No. awesome result. More power to putting a track setup on a v6. But using the designation 1LE and having two completely different 1LE package contents is moronic and nothing but a greedy marketing ploy.

I'm not a 1LE owner (or a Camaro owner yet..so..)..so I know I don't speak with as much authority..
I worry that by calling the V6 package the "1LE"..it's skirting towards the sad era when GM plastered SS emblems on nearly everything, and Dodge with R/T, etc. Wouldn't they have just called it the "Track Package"?

They should give it a different designation.

I would have to drive it first and see if I break it. The LS3 is a very strong motor that stands up to abuse and the last of the engines that look like an engine does in American muscle cars. I have a feeling that the new engine bay will always just look like an import tuner car engine bay no matter what you do to it.

1le is a performance package geared toward the track and has nothing to do with engines.
