Is this Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE a muscle car with the BEST mods?

The Chevy Camaro SS 1LE is a muscle car that can go fast in a straight line and also take the turns very well. Under the hood of this 2017 Camaro SS 1LE is a 6.2L V8 and is mated to a 6-speed only manual transmission. On the outside you will find a black satin hood, forged wheels, and massive Brembo brakes. On the inside you will find Recaro seats, an Alcantara wrapped steering wheel/shift knob/shift boot and Chevy's Performance Data Recorder. Is this Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE a muscle car with the BEST mods?
