ZL1 1LE Revealed

...

my god that grille insert is absolutely awful

Visibility is still shitty. It's either this or a Stang.

The z28 is go kart status then

I dont know how they are gonna make it faster if they stick with a NA engine.
This is the car that crashed at the hurrdurrring that Veeky Forums keeps shitposting about lol.

They must have been heavily influenced by the GTR design.

...

...

Yea I need to know what the new Z/28 is so I know if I should keep my 2015...

This new ZL1 1LE is scary tempting, despite hideous grill, pushbutton ebrake, and forced induction...

Searching for more pics.

>only in manual
GM doing it right.

>camaro and corvette have two separate development teams
If GM had did this fucking DECADES ago imagine how much better previous corvettes and camaros could've been? this could also be the reason they are just now going mid-engine with the Corvette (other than trying not to be bested by Ford's MR car in GTLM) they don't want the Camaro to take over the Corvette as their Halo car.

How? it looks nothing like a GTR. the only thing in common they have is aero bits with the Nismo (which also look nothing alike).

The only way i can see them topping this now is if the Z28 is some kind of DOHC 7 liter Turbo V8 with lots of carbon fiber (they are working on a DOHC V8 and Cadillac is still working on a twin turbo one). i was expecting an LS7 successor but fuck that isn't going to even be enough so why bother... i honestly cannot believe this was the car they were testing at the nurburgring and in all those spy-shots.

ford niggers, make a GT500R to compete with this
also, where is the GT350R competitor you kikes? SS 1LE isn't powerful enough, nigger.
Give me a Z/28 no supercharger bullshit track car
don't tell me I have to wait for the next gen SS 1LE to get a spiritual successor to the last gen Z/28

as a side note did any of you guys hear about this?

>current ZL1 is only 0.5 seconds behind the Nissan GT-R Nismo on Big Willow
>this will be lighter, have actual aero, and proper track tires

I'm not a fan of the Camaro, but I'm cheering for it to silence Alphonse and his disciples once and for all.

I don't care how functional the ricer wing is, it needs to go. Other than that, no complaints

Looks fucking sick

Shame I probably wont see many on the streets. If people don't buy them car makers might drop the market completely just how they did for the Viper. Shame really.

the fact that it's so hideous it's still making the disgusted face from the last time it saw itself in the mirror
Plus

>you could buy this car for around 70k, and live with the knowledge that your car is faster than the majority of modern super cars and literally 99.95% of what is on the road

Fuck, that sounds really appealing.

I'd buy one to support development and the fact I get to daily a god machine around but I'm a poorfag

Leave it to GM to make a great looking car yet somehow find a way to make the grill look as plastic and shitty as possible.

I like the new Camaro but hopefully this doesn't turn into a camaro shill show. i don't want a new "Europe vs America"/"Camaro vs GTR or (insert car here)" every damn day.

Basically don't become what the Alfa shills are becoming or ecoboost shills were.

I've just accepted that this shitty ass board, is going to have at least 1 cancerous meme being spammed constantly at any given time.

At least Camaro vs GT-R spam would be entertaining catharsis for a week or two.

GM says this car is 3 seconds faster than a regular ZL1 around the hurrdurring.

No, it was the Milford Road Course which is a 2.9 mile track. Nordschleife is a 12.9 mile course. Ideally, that would translate into a 14 second advantage on Nurdburgerking, although that seems unrealistic. Supercharger heat soak, overheating tires, etc.

Got a link? You're prolly right, I couldn't find the article where I read that statistic.

Opted not to link Jalopnik

>gm needs to go all out to compete with 10 year old nissan paltform
TOP KEK
and gmfags thinks this is impressive

>3 seconds faster than a regular ZL1 around the hurrdurring
so still slower than a base model 2011 gtr on all seasons in the wet! roflmao

> Why not just call this a Z/28? Chevy says that name is reserved for naturally aspirated cars

Why the fuck didn't they do this with the ZR1

...

Z06 i mean..

HEY NEGRO
CAMARO TAKE OVER VETTE FAGGOT
next gen top level trims~~
Camaro = TTV8 FR HANDLING & NAV8 FR HANDLING ALL MANUAL TRANNY
Corvette = TTV8 MR HANDLING & NAV8 MR HANDLING ALL MANUAL TRANNY

...

>sports car with a truck engine
might as well make it a diesel too for the full package lol

...

...

I've actually heard that the whole "truck/sports car engine" is more of a car engine crossing into truck form than it is truck crossing into car form with the latest LT series anyway.

Holy fucking shit my dick cant be more erected than that

>only available in manual

Once again proving that Americans buy manual because they want to have fun, and Europeans buy manual because it's all they can afford.

They should just make all the Chevy badges like this, it looks so much better

i feel like it would ruin the special touch being on every car.

I really want to like it but the visibility is a massive issue to me.

That car on the bottom is the ZL1 1LE. Not the z28
Why are you so triggered user? Where did big bad GM and the camaro touch you?

It's fine, I think the GT350-R had some pretty neat gimmicks with the carbon fiber wheels and stuff, but all that aero just really scream shameless bench racing.

It's fine for what it is, but I wouldn't buy one.

>2 inch headlights
>20 foot grille

made me think

>Arguably the most significant change for the ZL1 1LE, though, is with the suspension. Instead of the standard ZL1's Magnetic Ride shocks, the ZL1 1LE gets Multimatic's genius spool-valve dampers. These are the same sort of shocks used to astonishing effect in the old Camaro Z/28. Beyond the dampers, the ZL1 1LE gets additional suspension tweaks to make it stiffer than the standard car.

delicious

this post triggered him, lmao

I nearly came. I want it.

>How? it looks nothing like a GTR. the only thing in common they have is aero bits with the Nismo (which also look nothing alike).

The grills are really similar desu

kinda makes me think of a fat retard with wideset eyes

The car looks like it's melting

>305 fronts
>325 rears

Jesus christ they might as well just put rubber rolling pins on the next Camaro

>implying anything but a bullet in the dome could silence Alphonse&co.

>THIS assblasted

Kek nice

...

which will never happen

I'm not really seeing it.. they don't even have the same shape for the opening. but i guess they do both have big grills.

>11 heat exchangers

>fucking cleetus in the background

that front end
>GOSH MOM, ITS NOT A PHASE, ITS WHO I AM

I love my zl1 I can't wait to get this one

which gen?

Why the fuck is it so ugly though? Seriously, it's like they didn't even try.

Also,
>visiblity.

unfortunately you'd have to go outside to catch a bullet

triggered?

really? lel

>How? it looks nothing like a GTR
apart from having a rounder front it definitely has similar design ques.

But the question here is, can it finish a lapmaround the ring?

>The new Chevrolet ZL1 LE
>You'll only see the tail lights
>It'll never see anything behind it.

I don't think GM is worried because Corvette's have a cult like following. It would be pretty funny if the ZL1 is actually better than the next C8 Z06. I feel like GM waited too long to give Camaro's the "premium" package. I'm not even a Camaro fan but the ZL1 looks like a fucking beast

The current ZL1 already did at 7:29. I'd expect this to be hovering around the 488 GTB in lap times.

1st

The car is great

It doesn't look so sweet though...?

Damn, real nice.

So you pay more for a car that slower than a base ZL1 with the automatic? I don't get why it's manual only. The carbon fiber isn't going to make it faster than the auto version.

Could someone explain the difference between this suspension and regular MRC?
