CAMARO SS 1LE Review // 1 Year Later

[@macpettit2327]

There's a hidden easter egg in this video containing what's next for the channel, let me know if you found it! Excited to share my future plans for 1LE-R Version 2 Build

[@allterrainadventures3385]

Can’t wait to see what v2 holds

[@burnthorns86]

Black ZLE

[@theyellowghost8808]

ZL1 seats???

[@redcaraverageperson6746]

Lol your in a ZL1, can’t tell if it’s the 1LE version. The seatbelts gave it away somewhat but figured you changed them to that from the seat change but when I saw the blind spot monitoring go off on the mirror...... Have fun!!!

[@Hot-1LE]

Very nice bro!!

[@anthonycoffey6565]

I miss my 2013 SS Camaro every day 😢 I gotta get a 6th gen Camaro asap, then I'll have owned a Camaro of every generation 🥰

[@DrOcKa20]

I absolutely love my 1LE. The way the car handles, the power & the way it looks are all equally amazing. I can't get enough of it.

[@macpettit2327]

Couldn't agree more!

[@meharatwal9814]

Would you say the visibility is decent enough for a newer driver? I have had my license for a year now but have been driving for like a year and a half to two years with my permit.

[@adamperry6133]

@@meharatwal9814 I haven’t been in a 6th gen, but I had a 5th gen camaro and I’d say the visibility in that was compromised but you get used to it. It’s not so bad that it should be a reason to not buy the car.

[@daniellini6317]

Bruh I'm in love with 1LE. Also my dream car😁😁

[@jrms60r]

I own a 18 and agree the best looking wheels ever put on a Camaro.

[@Hot-1LE]

Great review man. What's unanimous is how much 1le owners love these cars for all the reasons you stated. There's no better car out there for the price.

[@macpettit2327]

thanks man I appreciate it, it's just so well rounded & balanced!

[@rommel-777]

ZL1 baby!!! Awesome! Just in time as I picked up mine 3 weeks ago!!! Can't wait brother. Be safe and God bless!

[@macpettit2327]

Right on! I'm truly excited for the 1le-r v2 build!

[@TheBlueCrew68]

I bought a 2019 2SS 1LE this past August and I have to say your videos had a huge influence on my decision. Happy to say that I have absolutely no regrets with the choice, so thank you for making all this content. I came from a 2016 STI with FA500 coils and other suspension goodies as well as intake, downpipe, and various aero bits, and I can definitely say this Camaro is on an entirely different level in almost every way (other than storage space lol). Not planning on modding much or tracking for probably a year or two, but I am interested in the Borla exhaust that you threw on that retains the NPP. Thanks a lot brother!

[@mingjiezhao227]

Thanks for the video Mac! I just bought a 2021 SS 1LE last week as my first sports car, first V8, first RWD, first manual. I have been driving it every day after work. Feels like back to my childhood time when I can play with toys after school. Such a crazy car! MSRP $45k is a steal. It has all of the formulas for a driver's dream car. This car shocks me in every dimension, except for the MRC. The MRC, I feel it reduces the rolling magically in high-speed corners. While for daily-drive, I feel it does not eliminate all small bumps very well, compared to my Subaru Outback. Of course, this is not a fair comparison at all. If compared to other sports cars I've driven, it outperforms easily. I feel so sad about the rumors that Chevy will discontinue or electrify the Camaro after 2023. Really hope the sales number can go up and GM can keep producing Camaro on the Alpha2 platform.

[@shrevewaxter4876]

Great clip. Scared me a bit with that intro! I’m still in “honeymoon” phase with my 1LE, but it is a far better car than I am a driver. One weird problem I’m having that has nothing to do with the car: going back to manual trans after years of autos. Size 15 feet !!😱😱 Anyway, I love this beast, it demands involvement. Thanks, keep it coming! 👍👍

[@macpettit2327]

That could certainly make it a bit tricky, glad to hear you are enjoying it! It really surpassed all expectations I had, it's just so capable

[@thecartruthreport8451]

I've heard good things about the 1le on a square tire setup with slicks, 285 I think. I currently have a 2016 2.0L with 165tw tires, and that car is enough to scare the shpoop out of most of my passengers on a curvy road. Looking to upgrade to a 2017-18 ss1le in the very near future!!

[@Dnh-Bear]

Build it, Race it, Brake it, fix it, Race it. That's just how it goes!

[@macpettit2327]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@carbondash]

So you traded up to the ZL1?!!! Nicely done.

[@Swuhzy]

i parted out my 2019 camaro yesterday too, we upgrading boys!

[@ericp6961]

Hi Mac! Outstanding content as always; great one year review! 👍

[@macpettit2327]

As always, thank you brother! It's been a great year with the 1LE for sure!

[@patrickdegrugillier9037]

Hello Mac, So sad to see the intro 😢 Hope you will come back with a gorgeous v2 Camaro! ( I’m French... I have not all understand, but I really love your videos of modifications !! It’s always really clear !👌😊 I will by in january 2021 a Camaro SS .... and you are my « mentor » !😊😉 Thanks for your work and your videos 👍😃

[@macpettit2327]

Thank you! Going to keep turning out more camaro videos!

[@robosullivan704]

Love that color. I can't decide between the blue or cherry tintcoat

[@jojokuki9701]

I went cherry... it's gorgeous in person... the neighbor has blue, not bad at all either

[@stemontenero9977]

Mac, you are the man!!!

[@macpettit2327]

Hey thanks! Really appreciate it!

[@Sierra117_callsign]

Haha ahhh I see what you did there. You were in a ZL1 at the end

[@macpettit2327]

Next adventure awaits!

[@BigClaunch]

Exciting!

[@Steveszlzl]

Love your channel. I just bought a 21 camaro zl1 so far I got a cai and a borla exhaust system that I didn't need a tune yet. I'm just wondering what is the next step for me to get more power

[@macpettit2327]

Thanks and congrats on the Z! Any other upgrades for power would really need a tune, headers, pully, sc upgrade, but after I release the video today, that may be the direction I take the new build

[@Steveszlzl]

Awesome I'll definitely watch and keep watching your channel thank you for replying back to me keep up the videos they Awesome

[@subneo61]

Congrats! How about insurance on a car? I want to get 1ss but only insurance would cost 800$ a month in NYC:(

[@hyper1le486]

What brake pads do you recommend ?? I'm heading to barber in May first track day for my self in my 1LE great vids

[@srgarjun]

love the build I have a stock camaro 2ss does adjusting the camber to such a degree affect tire life and longevity?

[@macpettit2327]

Toe adjustment will have the greatest impact on Tire life & longevity, A mild 1.5-2.0 degrees will not drastically change the life as long as the Toe is set properly

[@jajababy2point0]

A fan of the channel. Quick question, you mentioned the Multimatic dampers. I thought only the ZL1 1LE has the Multimatic DSSV dampers. Aren't the SS 1LE dampers GM magneride units? Or did you guys swap in a set of DSSVs?

[@macpettit2327]

I think I just used the wrong word! Meant magnetic ride 🙌

[@allterrainadventures3385]

I got a 2ss threw fbo at it and it’s way faster then stock and I can’t hook with stock tires I was wondering if toyo r888’s are going to be good

[@macpettit2327]

If it is just for a straight line r888's will do the trick, they heat up quickly, the downside is there wear fast and get 'greasy' in the corners fast

[@allterrainadventures3385]

I need something for track and to drive on most weekends

[@chrismaddox1634]

I got the 21 ss and I have the eagle f1 tires they’re really good as long as it’s not cold out. Good for corners and won’t wear nearly as fast as the r 888’s will

[@niquesseqouia5798]

Did you sell the camaro ?

[@blacc4hire344]

Hey I’m new to the car world, I wanna save up for a Camaro but I want it to be fast and give me that experience, help me out.

[@destinationfer2]

I like the newer front end facelift better on the 2019+ 1SS 1LE

[@tylerhiggins6500]

Would you be willing to sell it?

[@ydtech2649]

Why is the car back to stock ?

[@macpettit2327]

Have a new video that explains it, picked up a ZL1 1LE the other week!

[@joshuacrossing7117]

1. pony car? ouch. blue ovals should be so lucky :) 2. what's that radiator in the back seat?

[@dans.2058]

It may be fair to note that most 1LE’s dyno well over 400 whp factory

[@alton1830]

Nice Vid

[@JohnnyBlaze5680]

umm you’re not gonna get a 1Le for $35K sir

[@DaLizMs]

Best 50k Canadian I ever spent 16-1LE-1SS

[@johnlager9222]

1le is $45k, not a $35k budget.

[@macpettit2327]

Maybe I could have made that more clear; I purchased mine used last year for 30k, at the time there were also dealer incentives below $40k, Market is a bit different now, but 30-35 for a used 1LE in good condition with low miles is very attainable

[@BigClaunch]

Purchased mine brand new 1SS 1LE for $37,9000! Wait for incentives and rebates. Get approved before you show up. Dont be upside down on your current. Have good credit. 1LE's are the ultimate budget performance car.

[@Lex-pq9bl]

Great price. Where?

[@MedeJeanMoto]

Love the video and content but that clickbait title completely unnecessary

[@macpettit2327]

I guess I can appreciate the comment and where your coming from; but I personally feel the beginning validates it; and leads into the next channel update
