Who needs a radio when you have a V8
You don't need the radio but I'd like air conditioning. No radio in mine
Why air conditioning, roll the windows down, I'd rather have the radio.
Ben S yea but it needs more hp like the hellcat and the new super snake
+juan you miss out on the track part of this car, its all about performance, more HP is not the answer to everything, more horsepower and this car will lose its track performance.
+Jorge Rodriguez You probably drive a 1987 Escort with an AF/FM stereocasetteplayer and some obese noisy latinowhale sitting next to you.
Whoever designed the z28, did a fantastic job. Looks great
Best looking modern Camaro IMO.
I think the 2010-2013 v6 camaro looks the best in part because of the sleeker hood and overall more slippery bodywork pieces
@@bluesrike 2014 and 2015 were the best of the modern day Camaros
Technical.
I'm a Camaro guy and love the new z/28, the front splitter looks awesome and a 7.0 ls7 this car is amazing.
My favorite thing is the 7.0L LS7 engine.
H3N hell yeah that thing is the ultimate badass engine
Yes sir! I own a 2008 Z06 with the LS7, and I had a big cam and Texas Speed 11.5:1 heads installed, as well as full Pfadt stainless exhaust, and it dyno's 575 now, which is around 660 crank HP. A person could easily do the same with this Z/28!
VyperVenom that’s exactly what I would to to the LS7. Nicely done man
I like how the Z28 beat the ferrari F12 around the track.
i bet ferrari wasn't too happy about that.
Bad as car
Horrible as speller
Ferrari didn’t care.
I think Ferrari is dead
I don't think the average Ferrari owners care about lap times and such. Chevy is so crude compared to an exotic manufacturer.
they actually redesigned the bowtie so its not solid, cause they found out it was restricting airflow. crazy.
Flowtie
That Porsche wasn't trying to race, it was running away from this beast.
Yeah, steak was running from a ham sandwich.
@@JaysonT1 Yeah, the Porsche has considerable less horsepower, and Camaro/Firebirds were built to compete with Porsche, especially in handling. So, try again.
lmfao get real@@gozinta82
"You see that beatiful flat pearl white color we used that got so much attention and everyone liked so much?
Yeah, we're not doing that. "
Oh GM.
I thought the same thing. That's the best color I've seen on that car, and you can't even buy it.
LowKeyFunction wrap it I suppose
Lmfao!!!! So true
I still have my 2002 Z/28. Its still kicking ass!
This car can be had for 35K in 2019. I would imagine that 20 years from now it will be a classic.
Defenitely.
Their hard to find and they were only in production for 2 years. So down the road I’m sure they’ll become collectors as well.
its 2020. I've never seen any of these for 35K or anywhere close to that price.
only if chevy would bring back the Z/28 for the 6 generation camaro.... if that was a thing it would be the best all time muscle car!
@@gene7314 2021 and they are still 50k
This car looks so good
+electrixladyland69 you must be describing yourself
Now that's a burn, son.

One of the best Camaros ever made. I would absolutely take this over a ZL1 and the newer Camaros. Definitely in my top 3 for best Camaros ever
2012 SS owner here. I love mine, drive it everyday 😊 I’d love to get my hands on a Z/28 one day
I love Jay's car show on here…it's truly the closest i'll get to being there and experiencing what it's like to drive and review all of his amazing cars. Keep the great reviews coming Jay.
Guys! Z28 beats GTR Track edition in track! :o GTR! Just amazing step up for Chevrolet good job!
I have loved the Z/28 since the 1969 year....
When you think about it, this is an amzing deal. This CAMARO has beaten the Audi R8, Porsche 911, Nissan GTR, Lamborghini and some others around a track. It is AT LEAST $20k cheaper as a base price, and American cars are becoming more reliable than German cars in recent polls. I am not biased towards Chevy. I like japanese cars with turbos and crap. Like it or hate it, this car is worth it. And if you don't like it, don't buy it lol. Everyone has to stop complaining about the high starting price for a camaro, just realize the accomplishment made from GM and respect the engineering.
I am not repsonding to arguments by the way
true that, this thing is not only proficient on straights, it's great on cornering as well. what pisses me off is that some think that HP/tq numbers are everything. while that's true in some sense, you have to be able to put all of that power on the ground properly, which this car does for a relatively reasonable price.
bavarianblucandy Finally! Someone who doesn't argue and agreed with me lol
The new z06 corvette starts at 79k which is an absoulte bargin, so idk whos going to buy a z/28 now haha
There is no argument the z06 will outsell the z/28. I'm just talking about prices. Right now you can build a z06 that costs more than $100k yet, the starting price is a lot lower.
I love the white color and the body kit
You NEVER see these anywhere... I saw one around where I lived pretty frequently a little over 3 years ago. It looked just like the one in this video and was being driven by some older Mexican lady! Badass lady. Hahaha I don't see it anymore and it makes me genuinely sad because they're so gorgeous.
Thanks for the science behind the mechanics.👍 Great video.
I'm in love with this car... the headlights...I have heard flack about the tails, but I love them way better than the split duals currently being rocked on the Camaro. Z/28 badging does it for me...I have long time loved the Z/28's just about every model. I absolutely love this car... this is the Camaro for me no doubt. Beautiful!
I’m watching this video 2021 and it’s still a very nice camaro! Too bad we’re hearing rumors that we may not get another Z/28
I’ll keep my 2010SS with 7500 miles as of today. 425hp is plenty for a 75 Yrs old USAF Vet of Vietnam War, 67-68 and 69-70. Love it, but I’m jealous of Z28 option.
One of my all time favorite Camaros. Next favorite is the same model year ZL1 Camaro. Both look fantastic!
GM are putting so much good effort these days. love this car seriously.
Agreed. 75k is a bargain for this type of performance.
***** can you please emphasize how they missed the target? the only thing that i dont like about this car is the fact it doesnt have AC
bavarianblucandy
Air conditioning is optional and only adds a grand to the sticker; the car that beat the Turbo S and GT-R had the air conditioning and upgraded stereo.
*****
Back in the day, the Z/28 was the top track car, with an exotic high-rpm screamer of an engine known as the DZ302. You are mixing up the 3rd and 4th-generation Z-28 with the first and fifth generation Z/28; BIG difference. I had a 4th-generation Z-28 and it was affordable and fun, but the fifth-gen Z/28 is an altogether different animal. I would completely disagree with your assessment and say that GM more than hit the mark with this car, and they will easily sell every one they build. You want the affordable performance model? Get the 1SS; if even a used one is too expensive for your budget, the base V6 Camaro is still quicker than any factory Camaro built from 1974-1995, including your beloved Z-28, so pick one up and have fun.
rjwz28 yeah i overlooked AC as an option, thanks for clarifying that mate. if i had the money to buy this car, 1 grand is really nothing, but then again, the less a good car costs, the better right?
bavarianblucandy
I like to look at it as though the air conditioning and upgraded stereo system are able to be deleted for a $1300 savings, plus the performance benefits. There's no way I'd get a car without air conditioning here; I live in a city that is pretty much over 110° from June to August every year.
It's cool to see him driving through my neighborhood!
Love the sound this thing makes....
7.0 liter omg
This new car looks like it will be truly amazing and I'd love some seat time in one but I remember when Z/28s were the affordable everyman's sports car. My 1993 Z/28 cost $22.5K brand new with every option but the auto trans. $75k is insane.
Well these cars held their value amazingly. They are still about 70k
@@willbutler2639 ive seen that too, kind of interesting considering thats the same price as the ZL1 which performs better and has more options
@@PQ28120 it’s because of how few of these big blocks were made, it’s less than 1,500 made. They’re only going to go up.
Thank you for making the Camaro amazing got mine in June of this year and I love it to death
I just bought a 2015 Challenger R/T plus Shaker B-5 pearl. It's freaking awesome my first American muscle car. I'm in love ❤️
This new Z/28 is the first Camaro I've actually liked of the new generation. Other than the price, great work GM.
this is the sexiest looking muscle car for me of them all
So glad the Z\28 is back! I had an 86 Z\28 350 auto, t-top in white over black so this one really got me going!!!
That color is so awesome!!
Will it time better than the Alpha platform Zl1 or only the next Z28 will be this car? I'm re-watching this vid after reviewing the Lightning Lap all time results from 2016 bad;, this car still out handles so many amazing machines according to that non-scientific list. This Z28 is track car and seems to be livable on the street. Thanks Jay!
Should drive the new ZL1 when it comes out! That'd be a good video
Jay Leno is the man... he rocks the Canadian tuxedo!
Jay come on i was sitting waiting for that start up engine and i was so sad i didn't get a chance to hear it brutha... much love and respect Jay... cheers.
feels gr8 to own a 2015 camaro ;)))
Ikr
man i love that white!!
i agree with you jay definitely a good looking performing and sounding car
best Camaro gen/package in my eyes. Good job GM
It's amazing how different it sounds compared to a Z06, which has the same engine.
During this episode, Jay inconspicuously called Al fat and old haha!
Comaros are such an authentic vehicle it goes for much , years from now it will become a Classic.
LOVE the colour!
Love Chevys. Looks much better from the back. 500HP. Love the Z/28s
the back is ugly af
I love this car but you are wrong the back is ugly.
No, what's really ugly is the front end of the new mustangs. In my opinion the back looks fine on the new camaros.
***** Back looks quite disgusting to me. And you're in the minority on the whole "hate the front end of the stang" group. Everyone I meet says it's the best front end on a mustang yet. I also get more compliments on my mustang than I did when I had a Camaro.
Good for you. Happy New Year.
They're both fantastic engines. The ZR1 engine is extremely compact/light and pushrods allow a lower center of gravity. You simply could not fit the GT500's engine in the corvette, it's too large.
Equivalent OHV engines are quite tall/large and heavy by comparison, but they have their own advantages as well!
Anyway the ZR1 and GT500 are COMPLETELY different types of cars to drive. Mustang's are more of a grand touring muscle car and the Corvette is far more track focused.
Great video as always Jay, Boy sure wish I had the funds to send my 88 iroc 5.7-liter Factory ordered. With 7,660 original miles back to GM and have it restored. I have permanent nerve damage from spine surgery and left me disabled. So I am unable to do a restore. The car has sat for 10 years. All original except for the hood. Guess it will sit until the tires rot off lol. I really enjoy watching your videos. I can't find the words to describe how much I enjoy listening to you talk about your collection of fine machinery and history behind each one. It's fascinating. Another great video.
Perfection in automobiling
Stangtards tend to forget that when motortrend based the big 3 against each other a couple years ago they didn't even use a Mustang because there was no comparable in that model, they used a GT for the Ford and a Viper for Dodge. Chevy still won. keep dreamin stallin's boys, you're behind the curve
It's tough to tell that to newish Mustang owners at the drag strip or a stop light though. Model for model, every Mustang is faster than the competing Camaro in a straight line. That matters to a lot of people who buy cars in this segment. When a guy shows up at the drag strip with a ZL1 and gets spanked by a $30,000 GT 5.0 with 2 or 3 bolt-ons and a tune, that's not good. The Camaro is also very hard to see out of, and has a cartoonish interior and exterior. Terrible-looking car IMO. Buy a GT500 and upgrade to wider wheels and wider, stickier tires. That's the main thing holding it back on the track.
wow it costs more than a vette.... I used to have a Z28 and it was considered the poor man's vette... now the vette will be the poor man's Z28.
Not the same car from the 80s its now a track monster
Motor trend says they prefer this car over the GT-R Track Edition and a 911 Turbo S. Don't even compare it to the Z/28 of the yore.
Camaro has bigger engine than the Corevette
***** The GT-R is very handle than z28.
Sick ride.
Well the commode is very amazing
They should make the steering wheel a little different then in the other models. Maybe put Z/28 instead of the bowtie
Is it me, or does Jay not seem that impressed with the Z28?
Jays a Ford guy
Antonio Barrueta That's untrue. Jay's emotions mainly depends on his mood or the guy he is talking with. Sometimes he's more energetic, makes some jokes. This time he had that "serious tone", but doesn't mean he isn't impressed with the car. It has a lot of great stuff what Jay is aware of. He might tend to be more of a Ford guy, but he definitely likes the car and really likes Chevrolets in general. He is an American and likes all kinds of vehicles after all...
That’s just jay man
the pearl paint is amazing
Fastest Nurburgring lap time! What a beast, even against exotics.
aston 077? guessing he means the one-77
5:35 Haha chevy guy doesn't even know the name of the one-77, how is this possible?? Much respect for the new Z/28 and new chevy products in general but that is just an odd thing not to know as a car guy!
Jay cannot stop moving lol. Try to catch one time where he stands still for more than 5 seconds haha. The people he talks to always have to move back and forth because Jay just cannot stand in one place hahaha I love it!
Why did it take me this long to find this video?? I LOVE CAMAROS
Now put the 427 logo on the hood!
I couldn't help but think, "STOP RUBBING ON THE PAINT, JAY!!"
I wish that color would be available. It looks gorgeous.
I'd love to have this same bodystyle and get the trans am body kit conversion
Wow a track car that is also a street car. I think Ford did that a couple years ago and was called the Boss 302. GM always a day late and a dollar short
Jay please stay out of the bicycle lane with fast cars, you make us nervous.
I haven't touched a bike in years, the us I was referring to is the viewers.
I noticed that , but I believe he did that so the car ahead of him could keep the CAMERO Z/28 in the middle of the picture frame.
so they took out the AC and radio. OPE, weight savings goal reached! I'm so very impressed!
BEFORE VIDEO ENDS, LIKE IT FOR JAY!!!
TOP TOP TOP!
Bring back the Trans Am!!
Would love to put a supercharger on that
Zr1
Frankie G 6.2l vs 7.0
This is the only muscle car I like
Looks awesome!
I been a Camaro fan for trata and still loving it. Would love to won the new Z28
1,511,111 views...hahaha..how else can't wait for the new Z28?
The-Camaro -Guy88 it's amazing
well that settles it im buying one.
What a ride!! My first car out of high school was a factory ordered 1979 Z28 for $7K and change. If I hadn't recently bought a new M3 (E92 V8) before they went back to that dumb inline turbo six, this would have been a contender. I haven't bought American (other than my Harley) since 1991. Kudos to GM, Chevrolet and America for showing cars can be built again like the new Z/28. Nice job Al!!! The Z/28 should never be dropped again, at least not for good. Thin the model line up, but keep the Z/28!
Still love the 5th gen Z28s. They were truly street legal race cars. How they got this package past the legal dept and the bean counters must have been a exercise in finesse.
GM announced that this car will be priced at $75,000!!!
*****
your car is a year 94?
just, no...stop
For that price, they can go and fuck themselves!!!
583Ghost
LMAOOOOOOO
***** I am no Jay Leno, I don't have $75,000 to throw away!!! I am a hard working, blue collar American who served this Country in Iraq who also works like an animal every day with the hope of one day be able to afford a car like the Z/28!!! The problem is that Corporate America does their best to crush our dreams!!! We bailout GM, Chrysler etc etc but they forgot about us!!! GM, I can afford a $50,000 loan but I can not afford A $75,000 loan for a car... This is a shame GM, the Camaro was the poor man sport car along with the Mustang and Challenger now these cars are for the rich!!! Which by the way more then 75% of Americans are not...
583Ghost Greed is the American way ... America is in a way and sense, a larger version of Las Vegas for corporations and billionaires. Rich get richer, poor get poorer ...
They really need to scale this car down, to about 3300 pounds or less, Nobody wants a 4000 pound Camaro.
Guns & Gears Carbon fiber to the rescue
4 years later and you're still a jackass.
Guns & Gears 3300lbs? It's not a corvette you idiot, plus camaros are muscle cars not sports cars, they were never and never will be 3300lbs, and they don't need to be
Old camaros weighed 3200-3400 pounds.
Also didn't have several hundred pounds of safety equipment that is mandated to be in cars these days.
I could stare at it all day. Not even started 0_0
Beautiful!!!
Wish they would've put a custom. 302
Tj Stewart that wouldve been awesome
Aw Boooo! I wanted to see what happened when he Started to go after that Porsche!!
The tires were still probably cold.
PrometheusLoire and they were on public roads and it would take miles of high speed driving to catch the German... even if he's faster.
This is one of the best.
Just watched this video and Jay's test drive in the 2013 Boss 302 LS, Jay seem more excited behind the wheel of the Boss 302 LS.
I like this car but at $75,000 i will stick with my 1996 camaro Z28 LT1. the Z28 was never such an expensive low production car..... it was the poor man's corvette. who can afford these prices anymore anyways, new cars are ridiculous. i think my 1996 sold for $25K something new, i bought it for $3k. its allot of performance for $3k, and it handles well. one more thing i dont really like about the 5th gen is the visibility is very poor. all other camaros had larger windows and the visibility was much better, the 5th gen has the most blind spots of any camaro ever built, its also very heavy for a camaro. my 96 is roughly a 3,300 lb car.
andrew donohue the new Z28 is 3800 lbs its around 500 lbs heavier then my 20 year old z28. my 4th gen also has t tops. why no t tops on the new car?
andrew donohue I agree. I'll take my 2002 WS6 convertible T/A over this any day of the week. I mean how much horse power do you really need?
my 1996 has the LT1 its 285 hp and i have a PCM tune good for another 15 so its around 300. some fairly cheap simple bolt ons will easily put it north of 300, maybe a gear swap and its plenty. why is the new Z28 a $75,000 car?? the Z28 was never really cheap but it was affordable by someone with a fairly good income.. the new car being $75,000 is a rich mans toy.... also with 500 hp stock they take all of the fun out of modding the car
Nikola pajcin
theedrstrangelove i wonder if the ws6s will appreciate over time.
I think they still ruined the legacy of the camaro. Back in the Camaro's day it was a production muscle car that another guy maybe 3 houses down the street has one. We have an 81' Z28 sitting in our garage right now! It was a cheap ballsy car that tons of people had, it was available to everyone. You could buy a good one for like 10 grand. But now, this is barely any different than an exotic super car. Back in the 70's to the 80's you'd see Camaro's every day. But now, they are gonna be rare. And only a select few are going to be able to have them. Both my parents work for minimum wage, and we have an old Camaro that my Dad has had for over 30 years now. And back then he could afford it. Now, what are we gonna do? Get the new Z28? No! We can't afford it!
looks like ai found one furrie here :V
Rafael Schaefer
Ye,
blame inflation please. old suburbans are cheap as hell too, everything was cheap as hell compared to today
its the reason most kids went too the rice burners and drifting..ford Gm and Dodge said too hell with the kid a small v8 and a bare bones muscle car...In 1987 I was making about $8hr...I could afford a a 87 gt notchback 5.0 for about 11k...What kid can afford can even afford a 40k Camaro or a 75k one...The marketing guys at GM FOrd and Dodge are pulling at the pockets of the old guys like me who remember the name Camaro..5.0 Hemi..
stevefromPA2 That is all so true. Im young and going to be able to afford one, but its going to take a career in medicine to do it. And I'm drooling over this thing right now, but I know I wouldn't be able to afford it for some yrs. And I'm lucky to be able to even ever dream of affording it.
Jay Leno knows what he's talking about and he's a old time car man thanks
You are very welcome!
This car is Phenomenal. Someday I will own one. You're a Lucky Man Jay. Job well done Sir
$80k No Way, A/C is listed as an option?
it's a track monster dude.
no other car can top it for 75K.
classic chevy formula: wait for Ford to make an awesome car, make something similar, add 2 liters, wait for chevy fans to think its the best thing since sliced bread.
Smucko Smuckovic Yes we know pushrod engines are smaller, the Ford 302 Windsor block is one of the smallest V8 engines (in gross space) that can make 500 hp. Chevy still adds displacement to gain power, where as Ford adds volumetric efficiency.
Sounds to me like the Ford guys are jealous. The new Z28 is a beautiful car.
Hey dumbass, has Ford ever figured out how to make a car than can do something better than go in a straight line? Oh, that's what I thought...
P.S. The Z28 smoked your Mustang Boss 302 since the GT500 can't handle worth a damn.
The MK 1, 2, and 3 were designed in England, with the MK 4 designed in America. All of the cars were powered by American made engines though.
And Chevrolet is a French name, whats your point...
Hi Jay .Love your videos and wanted to ask do you have a third gen camaro or do you not like those? God bless
im diggin the new tail lights. like them alot better..
cant wait to see this on the rd
75k is pretty retarded considering the performance. You could go buy a Stingray or a GT500 with more horsepower, and if the "fun to drive" aspect is all you're looking for you could go buy a Scion FRS or a Subaru BRZ for 25k - and they all have air conditioning.
How the hell are you going to ride a car in the summer without air conditioning comfortably? And they want to charge 75,000?
Its a street race car.. for people that have the money not a everyday car to go back n forth to work! Its not for everyone. I to thought the same about the ZL1, I bought a SS camaro and had the dealer put a supercharger to for way less than a ZL1. Now I have more HP than it and the ZR1, Its not all about HP! Its about bragging rights and history of an American Icon.
If you were old enough you would saw that Ford did the same thing with the Cobra R a few years back.. It was about owning one that not many people would ever have.
for the record I feel sorry for the Chumps that bought all those Cobra GT500s there's one on every corner....
What part of TRACK CAR didn't you understand?
A GT-500 has inferior brakes and cant take a turn worth a shit.
Yup.. he hasn't watched the head to head videos on the zl1 vs gt500 the mustang gets beat all day long on the track with more hp..
And now with the z28 it be a bigger whoop azz
Jack Metcalf right!! have you seen the new 2015 Zo6...its rockin a new 6.2L LT4 V8 pushin 625hp & 635ft. lbs. of torque..woooo and is sexy as shit
75k car and still using halogen headlights. wtf
no kidding, I noticed that myself .. that's nuts.
I have been a fan of this gen Camaro since it came out and after seeing the times the Z/28 did at Nurburgring I WANT ONE!!!
looks better in this video then the pics I had previously seen. they should offer that paint though.
