The blue car is not a V8. It doesn't have the Brembos. I now see the white one is.

but dont take our word for it......

"the best handling camaro yet"

It's not a 1L1 for now but it is the start of one, we know they tested a car that was a 1LE, I say this is it. In time will see.

It probably is. The aero looks the same and its the SS fascia. I hope it's a 285-305 square set up.

Here is a pic of the new car look at the rimes on the first set of pics then the second set, can you see what I see.
Maybe this went over my head but are you suggesting the quarters are wider then the rest of the Camaros?

You are right, it is called the performance package, but it is strange that the wheels are the same style, yet at least an inch wider on the white car. Normally, V6 and V8 rim width doesn't make a difference and they are the same size (especially when the rim style is the same) but only on the performance car are they wider.

I'm not saying this car represents a 1LE, I'm just saying, I'm surprised to see the same looking rim be different sizes.

Hes showing that the rims are wider...or at the very least, have more offset.

All of the rims that are available for both the LT and SS are wider on SS cars than they are on LT models.

The blue car is runing the same rims as the V8 cars, the ones on the white car are wider, per the GM team there 1 only set there wider.
