This car is pretty much perfect. The only other car I would pass it up for would be a naturally aspirated 6th gen Zxx.

I had a chance to speak to Al O. this morning about things Camaro and specifically the 1LE.

Here are the highlights:

1) MRC. MRC allows this 1LE to go around a track faster than without it. It wasn't added to make the car more civilized on the street, but to make it faster around a road course. Chevy realizes that some sanctioning bodies don't allow it - and they have something they're working on for that. But the weekend autocrossers should dominate with this set up.

2) Cost. Chevy is shooting for a V6 1LE for under $30K and a V8 1LE for under $40K. It will cost more than the 5th gen car, which Al admits was an underpriced bargain, but not by that much. If you could afford a 5th gen 1LE, you'll be able to afford the 6th gen.

3) V6 1LE. Al confirmed that it's faster than the previous Camaro SS around a track, NOT the previous 1LE. Also, it is essentially the SS suspension package.

4) The 2.0T is now in production. The 2.0T is an in demand motor and Camaro had to wait it's turn for it in the production pipeline.

5) Will there be a 2.0T 1LE? No plans yet, but very possible. Al wanted me to ask you guys about it and I will later in another thread. If there is a demand for one, GM will most probably make one. I'll probably post a poll on it later and send it off to them.

6) Yes we talked about a 6th gen Z/28, to which Al responded, "What Z/28?" On that topic of a mythical Z/28, he asked me, if I'd rather live with a "skip shift" or a $700 tax. I told him, give me the skip shift and put the 700 bucks back into the car's performance.

7) Hooray, for the 1LE rear spoiler.

That's what I was thinking. Turbo would be interesting with the package.

There is no 2SS 1LE. But the 1LE package includes some 2SS features, like HUD and leather rear seats.


Not to mention, add unnecessary unsprung weight.
I did go back and check the brake specs on my ZL1. The ZL1 rotors are the same 370mm as the brakes on the 1LE package along with the same 6 piston calipers. Which makes a lot of sense to use a tried and proven brake system. They just have to change the caliper paint color and decals and they are ready to go!

Congrats Becky!!!
You are not giving me a chance to keep up with you on track, eh?
Promise you will at least give me a ride on track...



If I knew 1LE would be available this quick, I would've waited maybe.... but I still want 2SS so I don't know....
