Coming from daily driving a Z71 pickup I’m use to stiff suspension, I also work at a Chevy dealership so I get to drive these cars often and when I drive them they feel like limousine. So if your use to driving a pickup or and suv with off-roading suspension u should be fine with the 1le suspension
@robeast34 жыл бұрын
Love the ZL1 1LE- I agree black is tuff to deal with (that's why I got white this time), and suspension is very stiff on this car but you get used to it. There is a back up camera on the ZL1 1LE and visibility isn't much of a problem. I've had a 2014 ZL1 and 2015 Vette Z06 before this car. I agree stock exhaust is lame on all ZL1s so I put headers on and kept stock dual mode exhaust- sounds great and I get a little HP boost (a little north of 600 HP at wheels on dyno with no other mods). Z06 seats were a problem, ZL1s not so much as car sits a bit higher, I'm a bigger guy too. Bottom line, this is a race car and sounds (with headers) like one and rides like one. The slick tires kick up rocks so wrap the car as soon as you get it. It'll hold any corner you want it to and is meant to be driven hard! If you want a loud daily driver, get a Mustang. Personally, I find the newer Mustang exhaust is like the old blue bottles- more bark than bite. They sound a bit obnoxious IMO. Headers on the ZL1 1 LE is almost NASCAR like sound IMO- great. Dual mode exhaust is a big asset as well.

I have the exact same car but in jet black, I test drove it first, loved it and sold my Nissan GTR for it, way more engaging and more fun to drive ( not necessarily much faster than my GTR ) but I smile more. I will say this, for those that don’t want a race car, don’t get the 1LE package, it’s that simple, if you complain after buying it’s not for you, it’s obnoxious, aggressive and always ready for battle and that’s why I love it! The exhaust note definitely comes down to personal taste, I don’t mind it but for a bit more in performance and sound, I’m considering a better and lighter one. I don’t daily drive mine so the tires are fine, but people need to also realize the tires need to heat up completely in order to have maximum grip, wet weather is obviously a no, no along with the temps outside, anything below 30 degrees is another major issue, due to the fact that it will take forever for the tires to heat up, and cold weather will cause them to crack. If you aren’t swapping tires in the winter, she needs to hibernate until spring. Great video by the way.

@@JR-90 most high performance rear wheel drive cars aren’t for snowy city life, and for this car? aside from the stock tires being extreme summer tires, the front aero and side skirts will get killed in the snow, not to mention the ride height. Expecting to daily this car in a snowy city is an extremely bad idea, even with winter tires, you’d save money and peace of mind just buying a cheap FWD or AWD second car for snowy days. If you have snow off and on year round, don’t waste your money on this car unless you plan on removing the side skirts, front lip spoiler, canards, raising the ride height and swapping out the tires.

@@vulcantuminello1127 I own a 1LE and I used to race professionally. Anyone who uses Ring times as a benchmark needs better information. There is no standard for setting “official times” on the ring so some times are set by writers, some by engineers, and some by professional racers. Then there’s the issue that manufacturers cheat all the time at the ring. I mean a Civic has a faster “official Ring time” than a Mercedes DTM and Pagani Zonda. Do you really think a Civic is quicker? (It’s not). I’ve watched the ZLE Ring videos many many times and the driver is very good and sets a great time. He’d be even faster if he got to do the tests again with the A10. The best benchmark I know to compare lap times is Lightning Lap…That is short of having back to back times set with a good professional driver like Randy Pobst.
