2015 1LE or C7?? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hello everyone, new member here but been on the site since 2010.

Ready to pull the trigger and trade my 2015 1LE for a 2015 Stingray Z51. Do the numbers on the track warrant the extra $$ or should I just keep the 1LE?

Would appreciate any feedback, especially those with experience on the track with both cars

The Camaro has more room ,and the Corvette has everything else and weighs less . With the same type tires the Vette kicks the Camaro's ass . And the Vette is a panty dropper .

^^^^^^ What he said.....if you don't need 4 seats and can afford the C7, get the C7.

I have a 1LE and not a C6/C7 for one reason......the wife insisted on a 4-seater as we still have one kid at home.

I agree w GONIF !!!!!!

KJZ28 · 10-01-2016, 06:37 PM

Is your 1LE a daily driver or weekend cruiser? I dint get a Vette because I drive my car all year. If it was my toy I'd have a Vette. I haven't driven a C7 but a C5 and it felt like a go-kart with glue on the tires compared to my 2010 SS, so I can only imagine how good the C7 feels.

Diesel6393 · 10-01-2016, 08:18 PM

Thanks for the input guys, gonna test drive c7 and make a decision tomorrow

Living that single life so don't need the room lol gonna be tough to pass on the vette

GONIF - yes it is definitely a panty dropper

I love my 1LE, but with a choice of either car I'd take the C7 no question.

KaBoom1701 · 10-02-2016, 03:37 PM

lol, is this a real question?

C7 all the way. lol

LSXTravis · 10-03-2016, 03:29 PM

I bought a 2015 1LE at the end of the model year last year. I was thinking about a C7 and I kick myself everyday because I wish I would have bought the C7.

Pulled the trigger!! picking up this weekend after dealer swaps buckets for competition seats lol

I appreciate all the input gentlemen!

Never in a million years, even if the Vette was cheaper. Really did NOT like it when I drove it.

Numbers on the track have more to do with the drivers ability than the car unless you are a very accomplished driver.

My Ordered Grand Sport was built and completed yesterday. I loved my 1LE and would have never sold it if it wasn't told. I am looking forward to the Vette though!
