People are constantly comparing what's quicker than this and that. Who gives a fuck about any of that. If you're not taking it to the track it means absolutely nothing. Drive a car that you like.

In October I got my 2017 Ford Mustang GT with a Performance Pack for $36k. To think I could have bought a 1LE for $6k more breaks my heart. Don't get me wrong, I love my Mustang but when I drive it my smile isn't as big as when I drive the 2SS. I'll definitely be trading it in when possible.

Put $6k worth of mods into the Mustang and make itbetter than the Camaro and end up with a car that looks way better and has a nicer interior than the Camaro. The 1LE package isn't some magic witchcraft, it's suspension and sticky tires.

SRTMUSH most likely the biggest reason is that the charger is a sedan and the Camaro is a two door. Probably more at-fault accidents in the Camaro too.

Selling price is for sure one factore, insured's age, driving record, horsepower, collision repair costs, etc,etc. But I had a Challenger SRT8, and went to a Charger SRT8, same year, and the price went up, thought it would go down by going from a coupe to a sedan. Went from a 2008 SRT8 to a 16 Hellcat, price went down. Agent said one common reason a lot of people arent aware of, is the chances of it being stolen based on national stats. For whatever reason, the Charger was stolen more often than a Challenger. And newer cars are harder to steal with Key Fobs and other security measures in place. Again, this is according to my agent and may not be correct. Just passing along what I was told.

I can't tell if I'm happy the camaro is no longer a muscle car or sad. I mean I thought the corvette was the sports car for Chevy and the camaro was the muscle car. Chevy has pretty much made it so there is no point to buy a vett anymore. the camaro is fast, has its engine and is cheaper. I'm not sure if it's just my area but I rarely see the new v8 camaros for some reason. although my area the price for any vehicle is high.

Hopefully the next gen challenger/Cuda? will be smaller, much lighter and nimble. When I park my c6 next to it my vette looks like a go cart, or a 3/4 scale car. The challenger/chargers are huge.

Hey Riley congrats on your new awesome 1LE. If you love it who cares it's faster or slower than anything. It's your car dude and I'm just happy for you. Dude drive like 200miles a day so you can us show us big heavy revving pull in your next video lol say you planning on taking it to a long trip or taking it to the track since it can design to do both? Happy New year to everyone.

My Dealer installed the frt plate bracket on my 1 SS. I drilled out the two rivets with a 3/16" drill , then filled both holes with small plastic plugs, bought at ACE Hdwe. Then bought one of the Sto N Sho frt plate brackets. THE way to go.

He never said it was rare. He said the 1LE is "more rare" than the new ZL1. The ZL1 is easier to find than a 1LE. The same was true with the 5th gen 1LE.

God forbid you let them detail it before they hand you the keys. I think really high end dealerships like Porsche & Jaguar, etc actually do it the right way.

I know exactly how your feel about the front license plate. When I bought my 16 mustang GT I specifically told them to not drill the bumper to the point where my salesman hid the license plate bracket in the trunk. Well.. the service guys found it and I noticed it had been installed right as my salesman was walking me out to the car explaining how he told the service people not to install it.. It was definitely a disappointment because I wanted to install a hidden license plate mount but the car was so much fun I forgot about it pretty quick.

Love your new car that color is great. I've got a 2013 Camaro LS I intend to bump up to an SS eventually maybe my next car. The V6 does perform better then expected though there is a drag strip within 2 miles from where I live and I took it down on test and tune night and still run 14.7 seconds in the 1/4 mile and that's completely stock. After watching a couple of your videos about your new Camaro I think the 1LE is what I'd like to find next and that blue is what I think I want too. great video thanks

awesome car. I was close on my guess of what you were going to buy. I am a diehard MOPAR fan but I absolutely would have done the same deal. These are without a doubt the best looking cars on the market today. The best part for you is not having to deal with MOPAR electronic issues. My guess is this car will be faster then your SCATPACK once you get the launch figured out. I still can't believe anyone would think you would buy a Mustang instead of this car. Congrats and I can't wait for more videos.

Hey man , great choice in cars . I'm glad you are happy . One thing to consider if going to go forced induction. Putting twin turbos on it will allow you to run more boost , and if you put twin turbos on a GT with 15 psi you end up with 900 to 1000 hp . I'd imagine it's about the same for the Camero.

I think you made a good choice. I don't know the performance but the new looks and blue color of your Camaro is so cool. There are color imperfections even on high end cars so getting it detailed when you get it is the best choice. Btw, how's the driver visibly of the Camaro? I'm looking forward for more contents about your new car. Cheers!

Beautiful car, I hope to get one in the same color. Personally I think the hash marks look badass, but whether or not you like them should be your decision. The 1LE by far has to be one of the best bang for your buck track car. Sweet purchase and glad you enjoy it.

I agree the front plate holder dealer install is ridiculous. I would remove it and find some rubber blank plugs to fill the holes. My dealer was smart enough to not do that with my RT so it is now occupying shelf space and no front holes to fill.

Good choice with the 1LE. I would have bought that one too to match my 69 Camaro SS if I didn't need a daily 4-door. Luckily, I did not get a ScatPack from the problems you had. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do to your Camaro.
