1LE vs SS?

My son is looking for a newer Camaro in Alberta and found a 2015 1LE. What is the difference between it and a SS?

Thanks.

Just tell him to buy it, he will love it.

But a quick google search produced this.


The 1LE also features exclusive, monotube rear dampers instead of the twin-tube dampers on SS models. The new hardware allowed engineers to tune the 1LE suspension to focus on optimal body-motion control while preserving much of the ride quality and wheel-motion control of the Camaro SS.

Other changes to optimize the 1LE for track-day use include:

- Larger, 27-mm solid front stabilizer bar, and 28-mm solid rear stabilizer bar for improved body control
- Higher-capacity rear-axle half shafts to cope with increased levels of traction
- Strut tower brace for improved steering feel and response
- ZL1-based 20 x 10-inch front and 20 x 11-inch aluminum wheels
- 285/35ZR20 Goodyear Eagle Supercar G:2 tires front and rear (identical to the front tires for ZL1)
- ZL1 wheel bearings, toe links and rear shock mounts for improved on-track performance
- ZL1 high-capacity fuel pump and additional fuel pickups for improved fuel delivery during high-cornering
- ZL1 spoiler
- Suede Flat bottom steering wheel.
- Suede short shifter from ZL1
- "Camaro" labeled Red Brembo 4-piston Calipers
- 3.91 final drive. along with closer gear ratios
- Wrapped hood

And you can only get the 1LE in a manual. No autos.
