Default Zl1?

so it almost been a year with my new ram and im kind of tired of driving a truck not to mention 10 mpg is brutal but it is a truck after all. Sat morning took a little drive to my chevy dealer and to my surprise they have 4 2013 ZL1s on the lot. 2 auto 2 stick. so i went and asked the sales guy if i could take them for a test drive. guy says no problem. took the stick out first, wow this car can freaking pull auto or stick. put a smile on my face from ear to ear. at that moment i was sold. anyways im really close to pulling the trigger and getting back into a bowtie, question is are there any Camaro owner here? can anyone give me the quick scoop on these rig on what too look out for and expect? this would be a summer DD.

No camaro experiance but I can tell you the drive train will be solid and no issues. The LS platforn is solid as can be and the trans should last you many years regaurdless of how much you love the skinny pedal.

My cousin a and coworkers at 510 Race engineering have built 2 of them so far and done there stage 3 package and produced right at 700rwhp-680tq. Both cars were auto at that and very fun to drive and handled really well.

You'll like it. Keep a pair of rear tires around, these Supercars are sticky but they go away quick.
