Definitely YES. That thing looks badass!

I was going to post this earlier but got distracted.

Also, those tires going from 285mm front to 305mm front and 305mm rear to 325mm rear is F'ing insane! Combined with that serious aero it's got to be practically glued to the road!

I dunno about those guys, but this new Camaro ZL1 1LE is the ONLY American car I would actually buy right now. Believe it or not, I'm just not that crazy about the new Ford GT either, but the Camaro has everything I would want in a car in its segment, we'll probably except the utility and comfort, but I would be taking it to the track every time over an M4 or even a Z06 since they've solved all the cooling issues with the ZL1. But then again we have yet to see what the next generation Vette ZR1 will be like.

I'd also like to say that the 1LE package makes the Competition Package on the M4 seem like a ripoff comparatively.

King's pricing is way out of control. About 95k for all the good stuff. BM has to slow down a bit.

The ZL1 needs to be available with more drivetrain options. If you could get this car with the 10 speed auto and a different rear end gear ratio, this car would be hard to beat.
With additional options it could be a great roll race or 1/2 mile car also.

The 10 speed and manual are available on the ZL1.

You do loose the A10 when adding the 1LE package.


As for gearing, I bet it's different with the 1Le option as they did on the SS.

I should have been more specific.
Yes, more options with the 1LE package.

People on this M5 vs other cars are so open minded. In other message boards it's straight Jihad if you even think about a different model.
