The 2. 01. 8 Chevrolet Camaro is one of the most well- known performance cars on the market. Nearly half a century's worth of production can do that for you. What a lot of people might not know, however, is how sophisticated and well rounded the Camaro has become. Four different engines are available. Wouldn’t it be amazing if the Honda City Turbo and its Motocompo scooter were featured on Jason Drives? Hmmm. The base LS and LT models come with a turbocharged 2. V6. The SS Camaro shares the potent 6. V8 with the base Corvette, and the ultra- high- performance ZL1 has an even more muscular supercharged version of the 6. The LT and SS offer a choice of a six- speed manual or an eight- speed automatic transmission, while the ZL1 comes with a six- speed manual or a 1. Ford and General Motors. As you'd imagine, EPA- estimated fuel economy ratings vary considerably, from a best of 2. ZL1 with the manual transmission. But with 6. 50 ponies at your disposal, are you really going to care about what it's costing you to fill up your ZL1? Chevrolet's My. Link infotainment system is worthwhile since it's compatible with Apple Car. Play and Android Auto. More electronic safety features, such as blind- spot monitoring, are offered. Trunk space, at just over 9 cubic feet, is just adequate. On convertible Camaros, the top stows under a hard tonneau, and it can be raised or lowered at speeds up to 3. Handling on all 2. Chevrolet Camaros is excellent. The SS model is available with the Magnetic Ride Control suspension, which helps improve both ride comfort and handling precision. Inside, the front seats are comfortable, but the same can't be said for the rear. Even kids will find it tight. The Camaro has a high waistline, resulting in relatively small side and rear windows, and subpar outward visibility. So, yes, the Camaro isn't the most practical car available. But it is one of the most distinctive- looking and capable two- doors on the road today. If that sounds like your kind of car, let Edmunds help find the ideal 2. Chevrolet Camaro for you. Trackworthy, But Not Gutted. Sales of the Z/2. The formula has changed slightly in the meantime, however. While the Z/2. 8 stripped out features in order to shed pounds, the ZL1 1. LE tips the scales at 3,8. ZL1 such as heated and cooled seats and navigation. Still, the ZL1 1. LE is not a car for poseurs. The only transmission offered is a six- speed manual. Its tires are highly specialized. The civility implied by the console rocker button is a facade — Tour mode won't soften the ride one iota. If you're not tracking a ZL1 1. LE, you're doing it wrong. Where The Rubber Meets The Track. A car is often only as good as the tire it wears, and the ZL1 1. LE delivers in a big way. Goodyear developed a new tire, the Eagle F1 Super. Car 3. R, specifically for the ZL1 1. LE. The widest ever offered on a Camaro, they're mounted on wheels that are an inch wider and an inch smaller in diameter than those of the standard ZL1. While the 3. R is legal for street use, dry track performance is its overarching priority. It has a bare minimum of tread depth, huge outer tread blocks and an all- new compound derived from Goodyear's racing tires. Drive through standing water or in cold weather at your own peril. You might expect a track- oriented car like this to boast stabilizer bars as thick as your wrist, and you'd be wrong — the ZL1 1. LE's rear bar is slightly smaller than the ZL1's, but it gains three- position manual adjustability. The ZL1 1. LE gets its increased roll stiffness from new coil springs that are roughly twice the rate of the ZL1's springs. Overall, the ZL1 1. LE's ride quality is said to be very similar to that of the Z/2. Given its predecessor's unyielding disposition, it's a safe bet that the ZL1 1. LE won't shine as a daily driver. New Dampers, Less Slop. Multimatic spool valve DSSV dampers are part of the 1. LE package and replace the ZL1's variable magnetorheological dampers. These fixed dampers are fundamentally different from traditional shim pack- based dampers. The gist is that DSSV dampers provide more precise tailoring of damping rates and exhibit far less sensitivity to temperature. So while the tires will probably be useless in cold weather, the dampers won't care. Compliance in the chassis was exorcised on many fronts. For the ZL1 1. LE, GM ditched the rubber mounts in the rear subframe in favor of solid aluminum inserts and replaced the rubber- isolated front upper strut mounts with rigid ball joints. The dampers boast aluminum housings to shave weight and increase stiffness, providing more consistent suspension geometry during hard cornering. Track day addicts will love that the ZL1 1. LE's front struts have threaded lower spring perches to allow for manual ride height and corner balance adjustments. Plus, the forged aluminum front upper strut mounts can be rotated to increase negative camber by 1. This is impressive dedication to track- day use for a production car. All This Plus a Supercharged V8. On the powertrain front, changes from the ZL1 are minimal. The 6. 50- hp, 6. V8 is carried over with no changes. Sixth gear in the Tremec manual box is shorter to suit Nurburgring marketing purposes and little else, and there's a 1. LE- specific calibration for the electronically controlled differential. That's it. Various cartoonish aerodynamic appendages have sprouted on the ZL1 1. LE, and you'd be hard- pressed to miss them. The large, freestanding wing, a deeper front splitter and canards make it look as though a ZL1 made a top- speed run through a Super Autobacs store. At least these bits are functional, reducing lift. If there's an obvious cost- saving measure, it's the brakes. Stopping power is handled not by carbon- ceramic brakes à la Z/2. ZL1. They may not have the fade resistance of the pricey carbon ceramics, but replacement costs will be lower. Track Impressions. Our track time was brief but enough to cement several impressions. For one, the ZL1 1. LE's juvenile looks are at odds with the way it hustles around the track. Beyond its crazy- glue grip, it inspires confidence with its friendly manners yet has surprising fidelity. It feels at once planted and eager on turn- in, not quite tossable but supremely composed. If you carry too much speed midcorner, it continues to grip hard while it slides, and the recovery is gentle rather than abrupt. Its limit of grip is not an edgy peak that unduly punishes you for getting it wrong; rather it is a big, friendly plateau. You can be more deliberate with the throttle when firing it away from an apex than you'd expect, too, for a car pours such an avalanche of torque to only two tires. The ZL1 1. LE works with the driver no matter his or her skill level — it won't bite a novice, and it still responds willingly to an experienced driver's attempts to influence its corner entry attitude through weight transfer adjustments. It's a fat man that can dance. Oddly, its sense of speed is masked by the husky torque curve and indifferent engine note. Six hundred fifty horsepower has never been so anticlimactic. But it is certainly effective. The ZL1 1. LE's uptick in performance relative to the Z/2. In fact, the ZL1 1. LE's $7. 1,2. 95 sticker is $7,5. ZL1 but thousands less than the erstwhile Z/2. The Camaro ZL1 1. LE won't be a "limited edition" item either, though GM doesn't have unrealistic expectations of demand for such a specialized vehicle. Roughly 8. 00 to 1,0. Poseurs need not apply, but they probably will anyway. Edmunds attended a manufacturer- sponsored event, to which selected members of the press were invited, to facilitate this report.
