I was really hoping for a supercharged LS7 making 800 or 900. Heck, a Cadillac engine with above 700 hp would have been okay. This goes to show how pathetic GM with the Camaro is getting. They literally made it to beat the mustang, look at the 1969 ZL1 with 500 hp truly outperformed and out powered the 1967 gt500kr, the only thing in it’s way was the 1967 Super Snake with 550 hp but only one was even built in 1967 only for there to be only 9 more made 40 years in the future making the Camaro a better choice with 5x the amount of Camaro’s made and also 5x cheaper. Only for the 2000’s to hit and the Camaro got whipped by GT500’s, super snakes, and 1000’s. Heck even now in the 10’s and 20’s and it’s still getting whipped even with the more advanced technology and engines that they have that can easily get over 700+ or 800+ horsepower, they still didn’t use it, and then they blamed it on the customers when they just didn’t deliver nor did anything good with it. Shameful.
Love the brushed metalurgical look.

I'm not too big instant torque, rather the quality of the drive and on track, like an EN. I've driven multiple cars as well as my brother, and I'd rather stay with my Elatran N or Veloster N, while he prefers to have a 1le because it's the only one out of the 2 that has a standard transmission option. Sorry if I came off as rude.

Truly a badass machine, a serious performance vehicle still to this day. I drove one a couple years back. It’s a shame how Chevy couldn’t keep up with the Mustang. This car is laughably dated with tech/design/interior and identical to the 2016 model year. Even worse that Chevy never bothered to bump its power output despite a brand new GT500 and a bunch of Hellcat variants coming out after the ZL1 was released

Well that's not entirely true. This ZL1 Chevy said was more track focused not just hp and especially if it's not on the ground. The Mustang looks like a mess, fyi it was almost killed the s650.

It looks cheap and unfinished imo, a car that expensive should have a beautiful deep gloss.
What’s even worse is how bad they are treating 24 production. I ordered a standard old 2SS, in the new color Riptide Blue A10, at 3 dealerships here in NE Florida. I’m number one on the list (for a 2SS coupe) at two of them. The week one of them got a allocation for a 2SS the color I chose was under “engineering constraint” if I chose a different color my order would have been picked up but all blue colors after hyper blue, have been mid at best. With the strikes going on, I’m starting t to think I won’t get a car 🤨 I think the car will return but I won’t be surprised it’s a hybrid or a EV. I’m leaning on hybrid, Mustang will go hybrid according to Farley.
Would’ve been nice to see more unique touches like the c7 collectors edition.
