wouldn't a '18 2SS 1le be too new to have been around during all the flooding?

I thought OP was concerned about TX2K highway roll racing shenanigans.

Not necessarily. Harvey happened in August of 2017 so 2018 Camaros were already on the ground at that time. IIRC, 2018s started arriving in June of 2017.

Exactly! Seems like every car in Houston has been run to hell

He may be talking about the fact that everyone in Houston has over 500hp and likes to race in Mexico

Car has a clean carfax but just worried about the racing scene in Houston. 6k and 1 service record for an oil change, looks like I'll have to do a diff change if I buy it. Probably tires too, havent been to look at it but still has the stock tires and car seat indents in the rear so I may be safe

Check the date code on the tires, they should all be pretty much the same and prior to the build date on the door sticker.
Check the tread depth near the center of the tread or more toward the inside, the outside treads have a false shallow tread groove to allow more rubber on the outside shoulder of the tire.

Pic stolen from "for sale" thread:

Left side is inner tread, right side outer, you can see the shallow tread groove on the right.


If you already knew this, sorry.

2SS 1LE's, however, were not.

I drove my 14 2SS/RS 1LE down in Houston. I babied it and put 40k miles beltway 8 miles on it. Not everyone in Houston races them. Just like everywhere else it's a mix. That said, My 1LE was hit by an illegal immigrant with no drivers license or insurance, merged into by a girl putting on makeup while driving erratically, and got showered by gravel/stones from at least a few cement trucks and uncovered loads. People are inconsiderate and bad drivers everywhere though right?

That said, if you want a 18 1LE that isn't raced pay a small premium and get one new.

I dont like the refresh unless it's in black, I completely agree if I am too concerned buy new. But I am just hesitant coming out of Houston

Boost creep thanks for the heads up I forgot all about that.

My friend and I bought one at the same time and we have had them 15 months. I have 11,800 miles and he has 1500 miles. Anyway he is wanting to sell his to buy a house and would probably sell for payoff. I think he owes 36,000 and it’s blue and never raced , the only thing done is ACS side skirts and 1LE custom made emblems on the fenders. I have never posted pics on here but can learn if you are interested. It’s about 30 minutes north of Houston in Porter Tx.
