Absolutely. Rare, sexier, more expensive. The true Top Dog of the Camaro world.

Future collector value is a big question mark - most collector cars are rare and that's not a 6th Gen Camaro anytime soon. One can dream though

The ZLE is "cooler" if you're near a roadcourse or mountain road. Everywhere else the standard ZL1 is just as fast if not faster (especially highway rolls) plus the squeaks and rattles are going to be a serious long term issue with ZLEs because it's so stiff and GM interiors are....well, not the greatest

That BAW (big ass wing) though!

We'll see if that happens in about 20+ years. I will say that the depreciation value on these cars is less than a Malibu or a Civic. IMO, it's the "Anniversary" cars that will hold more value should these become collectable.

Time will tell on the ZLE collectability... and it might be as soon as the Camaro ending production.

No not afraid to travel. I am actually traveling to Maryland to pick this up when it comes in. I live in SC. I did purchase for MSRP. I wouldn't buy it for the inflated price that some dealers were asking. When I was shopping in March of last year if they said MSRP Plus I would just move on. I placed an order with 2 dealers and the 1st one that came in I went with. Got the allocation and build date a few weeks back.

I am looking at the cost to have some of the parts added before delivery. Ironically it looks like I ordered the same car you have.

Similar situation but I decided not to wait any longer for Z1LE. The more I thought about it, for my use I am completely fine with the ZL1 and a few cosmetic modifications as others have suggested. Having the adjustable suspension is a big plus for how the car will get used. Good Luck with your negotiations.

No I am looking for a specific color with specific options. I have been looking at the Chevy site since March of last year with the 2000 mile range. There were a couple closed to what I was looking for but they were spoken for. :(

My man, same here with riverside blue, the second best color because I'll concede to radiant red as the best color.

Radiant red was my second choice. However, since my 2013 was Crystal Red Metallic I wanted something different. Blue is actually my favorite color and the riverside blue is a sharp color IMO. I also went with the Black stripe.
