I wanted you all to be aware of my 2019 ZL1 A10 that I just recently traded in. The Camaro was perfectly cared for and is stock with the exception of a RotoFab CAI and Borla exhaust. The car has a smidge over 9k miles and is in absolutely mint condition.

If you're interested in this car - it's at Princeton BMW in NJ. Please ask for Clint - he'll take great care of you. And tell him Erik sent you.

PS - Since there are people who obviously aren't familiar with buying used cars via a dealership, please ignore the posted price. If you're interested, call them up and you'll be able to get to a price that makes sense. The posted price is obviously WAY too high.

I actually recently test drove this ZL1 at Princeton BMW and I’m actually in the opposite scenario as you. I currently drive an M4 and I’m looking to get into a ZL1. Honestly I was just really disappointed with the A10 transmission in the ZL1. Coming from a DCT M4, the difference is night and day. It’s a beautiful car and sounds great, just couldn’t get past the transmission so I’m now in search for a 6MT.

wow... that's really interesting. camaro aside, that A10 transmission gets super high praise as it's found in many vehicles at this point. from the cadillac escalade to the ford shelby gt 500. what was it you didn't like about it? did you try the different modes (tour, sport and track)? the trans behaves very differently in tour vs sport/track.

M4 is a great car. But couldn’t imagine choosing one over a ZL1 personally. The M4 will probably get 5mpg better or so I’m betting. Sadly the dealer has it priced $8-10k too high and also has it listed as manual.
But I get it. The BMW will have a level of refinement and less rawness which appeals to many. Enjoy the new ride.
