I’m back!

Hey gang, after a 7 year hiatus I’m back! Just picked up my slightly used 2019 SS 1LE!

My first 5th gen was a cammed car with a Maggie TVS on it. After that I picked up a inferno orange SS which I added h/c/i. It was a great car too. Pics for the crowd because we all like pictures.

In 2013 I sold the inferno orange camaro and began to heavily mod a C5Z for the track monster for a couple years, then when the military moved me again, I moved into a 6 speed Hellcat challenger for a couple years. Great touring car and a absolute beast in the straight line with a supercharger whine that never got old. I had an investment opportunity and since the Hellcat was paid for, I sold it to fund my investment. Anyways, there’s a road course not far from my new house so it came down to a gt350 and a SS 1LE. In the end I couldn’t justify the 20k difference for the same year and mileage for a gt350 even though the test drives in the gt350 almost made me pull the trigger.

So, after much shopping I will pickup my 2019 1SS 1LE Thursday. Pics to follow. And video. Cause it has a cam and some other goodies.

Congratulations and enjoy that 1LE. I had a 2010 2SS LS3 that was modded with SLP parts and then a 2016 2SS M6 6 speed until last year in March when I bought my used 2017 ZL1. The 6gen is better than the 5th gen in every way in my opinion but I sometimes miss my LS3 though except when I get in the ZL1. Enjoy the drive!��

Welcome back to the forum! You made a wise choice in choosing a SS 1LE in lieu of a GT350.

Thanks guys,

Really looking forward to the better handling alpha platform. I think the 1LE will be a great drivers car.

Nice, very nice! I am on my 6th Camaro...2 5th gens and now on the third 6th Gen. Awesome cars and I'm sure the Mustang was nice, but not at that price! Glad you're back!

A 6th gen ZL1 (650hp) and a 5th gen SS LS3 (426hp) is not exactly an apples to apples comparision though.
