Yea the $80k price tags on the 23/24 models aren’t very appealing lol. I did find a 2019 satin steel (same as my truck) ZL1/1LE today . I have to stop looking . Decent price and low miles

I've seen the new riptide blue in person and its a lot lighter than I was expecting.

I couldn't decide either. My wife and boys have grown attached to the yellow, So that wasn't much of a discussion. Why we needed another one was the discussion

So the decision was made to keep both as long as it made sense. Although realistically, this hobby doesn't.

Since they haven't actually stopped Camaro's they might be cranking them out, or they could be rare if the part shortages really screwed things up more.

If so were to guess, Bright Yellow and Rally Green, and maybe Krypton are probably going to be more rare than than anything on 2024. It seems I've already seen more Riptides(incoming at least) on this forum than RG's. And they made less than 300 Yellow ZL1s total. The Krypton's seemed to have all been put in vaults already. Nitro Yellow will be the rare one this year, it's the controversial color of the year. Different light level made make a huge difference on them IMO.

Those taillights are the only thing I truly miss about my 2018 ZL1.... My 23 ZL1 has those goofy glasses for the rear tails... not a big fan...

Looks great man!

Always looking like it just left the show room. I'm not quite done for the winter yet. I may be driving to NC first of the year, depending on weather in the Mountains. Otherwise, it will be the truck (but I want to drive the ZL1).

I seen in another thread you got a ZL1 . I’ve been browsing lately. No salt yet but only a matter of time
