New AutoTopNL ZL1 review

https://youtu.be/TsDPmqIYuq4

The reviewer is a real car guy and needless to say, very impressed by the ZL1. He didn't find the PTM settings for traction management, but I think we can all forgive that small omission, this was apparently the first time he drove a Camaro that had an e-diff.

It would be nice but it auto incidents and deaths would sky rocket.

People can't negotiate traffic circles or stay out of the left most lane. So I know they wouldn't understand how the Autobahn works.

I looks like he waited a bit for a gap going that speed until both lanes were wide open in front of him.
A 189+ mph 3,800 lb. brick.
These cars are truly amazing!

Notice he had both hands on the wheel with no cell phone!

Good review. I like hearing people gush about the sound - it does sound great, and "racy" - like he said. I'm glad he mentioned how good the chassis is as well.
