Wife bought a 2017 50th anniversary

Zl1steve · 11-18-2022, 11:11 AM

Been awhile since I logged in, sold my zl1 and since then I've owned a impressive list of cars.
2019 redeye
2020 gt500
2021 ram trx
2021 challenger superstock
2022 ram trx
I've missed my zl1 so we found this beautiful 50th anniversary and she bought it. 30k miles, clean title, 1 owner, perfect inside and out. Same color my zl1 was. Man I forgot how well this chassis feels.

I've considered getting another zl1 but I love my hellcat to much. It makes 950 wheel on e85 and is very comfortable to drive.

Congrats!

Yes, congratulations... braggart! No, just kidding. A very eclectic as well as impressive group of vehicles.

The chassis on these cars are marvelous and so, they can handle more power than the n/a engine normally produces, AND you've been exposed to the 650hp/torque of the ZL1. So, how long til ya start to "modify"?

The car is beautiful BTW and one day will be a rare bird (keep all the OE parts?). If your wife bought it, she's a rare bird too. I'd definitely leave her stock! Enjoy both!

I think we're leaving this one stock, maybe a air box. Honestly I've not looked into mods on this engine, had a bunch of stuff done on the zl1 but I haven't researched what is the good mods to do on this engine that actually work.

Congratulations to the wife, Steve! I would leave it stock but either a RotoFab or Cold Air Inductions CAI would be a nice addition. It is a rarely seen Camaro and probably worth more if it’s not modded.��

She has good taste, I welcome her to the club.

If keeping otherwise stock, id recommend at least a CAI, if only for the sound improvement.

Congrats to a fellow 50th owner.
