Beside who's to say that pile won't overheat when put through the same paces? Have you seen the data on it?

Looks Amazing to Drive!

...But the 2019 style still isn't appealing physically.

I would take this car over the Yenko any day. I bet they have the same price tags.

For the area I live in 455hp is just fine because I am in city, suburb and highway traffic. If I lived out in the desert or areas with traffic free open roads I would consider the Yenko.

Hennessey has a real bad rep for ripping people off. Can't go wrong with a factory Yenko backed by Chevy.

I like the hood plus it ads more HP.

If I had a 1000hp Camaro it would have Mack Steele Private Eye decals on it.

I am in the same position here. My 2018 SS 1LE is enough and I like the way it looks and runs right off the showroom floor. I always look for more power, but when could I use it?

I think a good upgrade would be to bore the LT-1 to 416 CI, add a cam, MSD intake, perhaps bigger throttle body, long-tube headers and a good tune for perhaps 600HP. That would be my ideal path.

BUT here in Phoenix, AZ we have mandatory emissions testing and inspection, so most of this is not possible for me. This is where factory editions make sense (sort of).

Sounds like crap? Totally disagree with that statement! I think SVE did a good job on these special edition Camaros. I could never afford to buy one but like it and would prefer one with the standard 1LE wheels and no Yenko decals but that’s part of the SVE conversion of the cars. Good job SVE!!

Don't they have long open roads in phoenix to make use of 1000hp?

Can't be many dealers selling the Yenko if they are only making 25 for the 2019 model year.
