2016 2SS Or 2013 ZL1

What would you guys get? The 2013 ZL1 for 36k or the 2016 2SS for 32k. Planning on getting the ZL1. But yet again, the new 2SS looks sexy as hell.

For a daily driver, I think the 5th Gen is much more comfortable to drive. Also you can't beat that feeling of all that torque when you put your foot in that LSA.

I'd try to get the price dropped a bit on the ZL1, and go that route.

2016. Because it is red and I think red will suit you.

Besides that the warranty and financing should be more favorable to you. I'm not a fan of 3rd party warranties like you might get on the 2013. They try to weasel out of paying for covered items and claim items are not covered that you would reasonably expect were included reading the policy.

If it’s a toy, the Z. If it’s transportation, the 2016.

Assuming great condition and low miles, I'd go for the ZL1. Thinking of making the switch myself to a 13-15.

I vote ZL1.

Nothing against the 16..... I think you will get the best bang for the buck from the ZL1.

I'd go with the zl1. I think the 2010-2013 camaro's look the best. Plus there ain't nothing like the sound of a supercharger!

See if you can get the price down to 29,000 on the Z and 30,000 on the 2016 and buy both of them!
