Such great looking cars!

As l sit here having my coffee, l look out and notice that no fewer than 6-7 people who walked by stopped and checked out the ZLE. Even without it's GY 3R's, it's still the best looking car out there, IMO!

I was even seriously eyeballed by three different Corvette drivers yesterday. l'm still loving this car...more every day. A truly great piece of work by GM...even with a "less than it could be" factory tune. For me...it's a keeper!

The car is the best looking car GM has made since the 69 camaro, and 70 chevelle ! The C6 Corvette Z06 would fit in also ! But not even the 2019 ZR1 looks as good !

I agree. It's a fantastic looking car.

I'm in a rental house with a very small garage while my divorce is pending, so my ZL-1 is 5 miles away in a self-storage garage. If I could go into the garage and look at it, I would spend an hour a day in there just admiring the beautiful lines.

I don't have a 1LE, wanted a vert, but I too think the ZLE is an absolute marvel. Unlik emost guys here, I have never been a Chevy fan. Wasn't even a GM fan until I got me CTS-V.. then this 6th Gen hit the showroom and I was like ... holy S H I T

Love it!!! The first time I saw one last summer, I knew I had to have it, at the time, I was driving a '17 SS NFG, pick this one up after owning my '17 for only a year. I've had it up on jacks for two weeks, changing out the brake pads to the Z26's, changed the oil and diff. fluid and cleaned and waxed the wheels. Changed the side markers and rear reflectors to the clear ones. Couple weeks before I can drive.

I was driving later that same day and l saw a standard ZL1 at an intersection. It was facing me across the intersection, and even owning my own ZLE, l couldn't stop staring at it. It was white...and just stood out as such a beautiful contrast of color/looks/stance.

I agree with all the replies...these cars are just an awesome package that GM did for us.

What part number for front and rear Z26 pads?

I need to do this brake pad swap as well. I’m tired of dealing with the brake dust. Did it on the Hellcat and it was night and day difference while retaining the stopping power.

You wouldn’t happen to have torque values for those bolts we have to remove to do the install do ya?

To the OP. I couldn’t agree with you more!! Yesterday I picked up my ZLE from the detailers. While I was there he said to me, “ I have to be honest with you, I’m not a Camaro guy. But I love the look of this car. I have another customer that brings his regular ZL1 and I don’t like it at all. But your ZLE, I can’t stop staring at it.”

I then took it out for the first drive of the year. While on the highway I had some strange dude follow me for 2 miles filming the car with his cellphone.

Then once I got off the highway, at a stop light, I had a car full of high school kids giving me thumbs up and hollering as I made the turn.

The car is one of the best/most aggressive looking cars you can buy today.

PS and you got the good looking tail lights Hahahaha j/k.
