1.) Blind spots? I got a convertible. 2.) Brake dust? I got ceramic pads. Throwing away new pads for piece of mind is priceless... So far everyone talks about these issues...(Facebook Groups, Forums, etc.) 3.) With blindspots why would you want to lean the seat back even farther? I'm 6'3 and I have no complaints... 4.)

@@richardwanamaker9080 na just use snoax or something idk the brand name rn and squirt that mf on a towel and rub the towel like ur trying to Indian burn ur friends arm with the towel on the wheel and wait like 5 minutes and it’s better than it came factory. And if ur getting crazy use a tooth brush and do it but that makes it from a 1 minute to a 10 minute job
For the blind spots u can get the 2019+ roof sharkfin and the rear view mirror it comes with the camera and lets u see 180 degrees behind u and basically have no blind spots and u could get the blind spot monitoring side view mirrors added on also if not make it a custom convertible 😂 and i would recommend a different seat🤷🏽♂️ and like they said u can get the ceramic break pads and or just ceramic coat ur rims so u can just rinse them off get that for your car too protects your paint and makes it easier to wash
Initially I didn't use the rear-view camera because the depth perception would throw me off but after using it for a while and getting used to it, I love watching people behind me in other cars just gawking at my car. The camera is just good enough to see their heads steady pointed in my direction at a stop light.
I like trucks better than cars ..i like my chevy colorado 4×4 great in the snow.i dont need a sports car.i go camping and my truck is perfect for it .have a cover for the bed that locks....
At the end of the day none of this stuff matters unless your daily driving it. 9/10 times logical people are buying it for a fun car lol. Drive mine maybe 3 times a week. Friday Saturday and maybe Sunday unless I’m out with the fam.
i have a zl1 too, hand sanitizer is not enough to keep your steering wheel clean. that’s crazy, that does nothing. the only way to have clean enough hands for the steering wheel to not get so dirty fast is to actually wash your hands with soap and water. hand sanitizer just has you moving that dirt and grime around on your hands, unlike rinsing your hands and all of that being washed away. i don’t like the alcantara on the steering wheel and shifter either.
If you want real stopping power, the Semi metallic pads are the only way to go. If you want low dust switch to a ceramic pad but understand that the brakes won't bite or resist fade nearly as well. You can't have both. Alcantara steering wheel is dumb on a street car. Feels great but gets nasty unless you wear gloves. If you are noticing such dramatic power loss with the heat, you might look into an overflow/expansion tank for the supercharger coolant. It's a know issue that air gets trapped in the system which then will shut off the pump and reduce engine power.
My ZL1 is ceramic coated including wheels so makes it easy to clean the brake dust off. Just take a pressure washer and wash all that dust off. I dont touch my car I just wet it, hit it with foam cannon, then pressure wash it, then use my backpack leaf blower and dry it off. Sparkles every time. I have that steering wheel gets all matted. Im going to get a CF custom steering wheel soon so not too much of an issue for me. The thing that sucks is Gwinnett traffic sucks so bad cant really have fun in the car around here. You have to go further away from all the people to have fun in the car. Ypu need to get an interchiller like I have to keep that charger cool. I dont have ANY issues with heat soak at all. Even in ATL when its 100 degrees the temps in the charger never get over 140 degree.
When you step up to ZL1, you're now in something that isn't exactly built as a comfortable car. Right? Plus, you think about all of those issues you'll deal with as a result of that build up front and just accept them if you love the vehicle. My son had a Crush Orange 2019 2SS 1LE that was a blast to drive. But, it also wasn't too bad in terms of ride feel. Now, he has a 2023 ZL1 1LE. It's a beast and a blast to drive, but you know you've gone to the next level because the ride is so different. But, the way it corners makes it all worth it!!
To eliminate the brake dust problem. What I do is everytime I'm done driving my car I clean my car and then install my satin cloth cover over my car.Also be cleaning your car all the time your car will be clean all the time. Also but the 2 piece carbon fiber steering wheel covers.
Tail lights look great. My 2023 HTC C08 Z51 had almost all the same issues. I'm actually watching your video considering a ZL1 because I just desperately needed a rear seat. Carl looks good but yeah these are the problems you deal with driving the Supercar daily.
All ZL1 calipers are painted unless you get the 1LE. The brakes is a easy fix got with ceramic but also it may means you need to change the pads. The seat lean depends on how you have the bottom part of the seat.
My biggest complaint for my M6 is that taking off is always a challenge. You have to really hunt for that sweet spot of launching while rolling on the throttle. It typically means that from a dig a lot of cars will get the jump, but the 650 TQ makes it a short lived victory for the other driver.
I have a zl1 A10. I gained 3 tenths just from a trans tune. Stock for stock, I our ran my buddies manual 1le from 60 to 150 by a couple cars. Drag race, my car went 11.3 stock everything while he could not get better than mid 12's due to his manual having tq management issues. Getting the car out of the hole isn't easy. Now, I push 842hp on pump and over 900hp on E. He is still stock.
@@mjc3502 1LE has a trouble with high speeds because of the downforce generated. I think it's pretty documented that the 1LE traps at a lower speed via all the auto magazines. I love that the 1LE is a great track monster, but for top speed the regular ZL1 is better unless there are curves around.
I have a 2018 in nightfall gray metallic. I absolutely love it and keep it covered. I live in an apartment complex so I don’t have a garage in New York. I drive it on nice days. I love the green great looking car you have there 👊🏼Be worth a lot more money than you paid for it and it will go up more in value.
I got a ‘18 SS & decided to go c8 over zl1. I get to keep my manual as my daily, the c8 is the baddest looking car out, ordered mine last wk at MSRP. If U can find a dealer to sale at MSRP, it’s a no brainer. I got the 1LT & wit a few options, I still came out under 70k
Bro I’m trying to get like you. Have the nice whips and everything. What do you do for a living if you don’t mind me asking. I don’t need details or anything but I’m just curious. I’ve been watching you since you had the red LT1 camaro.
I'm tall and that low windshield blocking stop lights is a pain in the ass that a lot of people don't mention. I've gotten used to the c pillars and I have the camera rear view so that's not a problem but whenever I'm up front at a light I got to sit there with my head cocked forward so I can see when it turns green.
@@blackrat1228 thats actually perfect as im 6’3 all legs aswell, is there anything majorly bad with your height and the camaro other than the windshield? What year is yours?
@Chyy6 no, everything else is fine. Seating position is great, plenty of leg room. My car is a 2021 and I'm coming from a fourth gen camaro where my knees were almost on the dash and braced against the door. There's none of that in the 6th gen, I actually have the seat moved forward just a touch forward, which is something that rarely happens. I can fit a helmet with no sun roof, not sure about cars that do have one if that matters to you. The only other complaint about the car is it's a little hard to get in and out of if you're trying to be careful of the seats. I have alcantara so I'm trying not to destroy it when getting in and out of the car. If it was leather you could just slide in.
@@blackrat1228 big help actually, preciate the info, was having doubts as all the reviewers ive watched were short compared to my height. But much appreciated
Hopefully GM is just doing all this to drum up support for the platform before they drop a surprise 7th gen Camaro. I don't have much faith in GM though. I really wish Chevy was its own company.
Super cool car man! Another thing I'd add to the list are speed bumps. If you are unlucky and live in a place that have those big speed bumps, the poor car will scrape real bad. I hate my city because of this.
Brembo dust problem are with all of them on all the cars, can switch pads but thats the price you pay for that stopping power. Not a fan of lime green colors, but it looks great on the Camaro.
I have a 2019 hyper blue metallic a10. Your blower noise is louder than the auto. I know this because my boy has a 19zl1, 1le manual. Visibility in the camaro, I have zero issues at 5'11. Break dust, yeah it is an issue. A bad issue. Seats, yup. I'm a big guy with a 50" chest, 19" arms.. the seats are not comfortable for me. The steering wheel, I liked my camaro ss leather one better. Stock.blower, I have a Maggie 2650, problem solved. I like the factory rims look, but not cleaning them. My car runs 9's and the cam is small Enough that it drives like stock. Would I buy it again? Yeah I would. Great video, looking forward to your build videos.
I don't own a ZL1 yet...considering a final year purchase. My thoughts are swapping all the Alcantara interior for 2SS leather. I just hate spending all that on top of new ZL1 price. :)
Jay I like the green Camaro zl1. Jay RUclips recommend me your video and your channel. I was wondering if I can do a reaction on your green zl1 ? I can’t wait to see more content on your channel.
Get 5% on rear forsure I got 25 and regret it wish it was 5% bc u already can’t see shi from the inside at night and the 25% lacks complete invisibility” during the day a lot
I love my 1le! Their is nothing i dont like about it other than black is hard to keep clean..already changed the brake pads. No more brake dust. You need to sell this car and get you a honda or toyota or something like that.. you have one of the fastest production cars ever made and you are complaing about silly stuff...just sell it!
interesting your driving seat does not go back a bit farther???? I have an LT1 and it goes way back..... something wierd about that with your driver seat??
does it really heat soak with all those extra cooling vents and radiators? ill still take a lighter zl1 over a heavy ass hellcat even with a bigger blower.
@@goblinzl1It’s designed for heavy track use but not much you can do when it’s 90+ degrees outside and running hard at the track . You won’t overheat the engine or anything like that, but as it gets hotter, it will pull timing and slow the car down a bit to keep itself from overheating
Not sure why they couldn’t put a garbage door opener in it ,,,and the coloured lines in the backup camera are hard to see even at night,,,and it needs a front facing camera as well (like the C7 Corvette) before you cave in the front splitter,,,I installed a cheap backup camera on the front ,,
Best way to eliminate that risk is to back into parking spots that way you don't cave the front splitter and the blindspots are also eliminated because you're pulling out instead of backing out. We know all these muscle cars sit low so you have to think a little out the box to get around some of these limitations.
Some rock guards/mud flaps in the wheel well should help with the brake dust getting to the back of the car like that The lean of the seat is insane though
That is the same super charger that the c7 corvette Z06 has. Which are known to overheat alot. As cool as the zl1 6gen is, the LT4 super charger is not the best. Thats why alot of people switch out the stock super charger on their ZL1 and get a Whipple. 6 gen camaro SS can beat a 6 gen ZL1 with a procharger and some heads and cam work and not even overheat.
Yeah that green is sick 😎😎, Camaro is the only sports car I've never owned though, and the reason......from the driver's seat, you cannot judge where the front end is cause you can't see it. And when your doing some hair raising manuvors, I have to see the front. Other than that, it's a great looking car.👍👍oh and just get you some power stop brake pads, that will get rid of all that brake dust,
I think it’s the type of brake pads your using that makes all that dust. Put heat wrap tape on the headers when you put them on. Get a bigger super charger that’s higher off of the engine. All your complaints are fixable. Good luck.
Bro ain’t no way this boy is complaining about break dust like Bro from far away. Nobody’s gonna see that shit you had to get close for me to see that dust. I didn’t even see it from far.
I don't l I like alcantara in a car at all, I'd rather have some nice Italian leather or just quality genuine leather through the car. Maybe a little bit of Alcantara, I like the feel of but don't want have to touch it to drive the car. I can deal break dust, i don't my car hard but I still get but it's not as bad
I get the point about the dusting of the brakes. What I understand about dusting, it’s actually due to the material’s ability to shed heat and also perform better. In other words, as I understand it, lower dusting pads are not going to perform as well. I’m sure people will disagree with that, but some really smart people had that conversation and I just happened to learn from them. Trust me though I know how annoying it is. Mainly because I’m a detailer and I hate how quick my wheels go from pristine to grimey ASF. Anyway, thanks for the insight! Liked and Subd 👍🙏👊 Oh and on the Alcantera, what do you use to clean it? I wonder if the Koche Chemie Pol Star cleaner would benefit you. It is INSANELY good at cleaning Alcantera from what I have seen. And I think it does add some protection.
Hellcat Brembos do the same thing. Black wheels with red calipers suck. Bought pads to take care of this, then some assholes stole the car. Don't park cars like this, drive them and then put them back in the fucking garage.
It’s 2023 bro…. These cars have been reviewed to the T….. you literally said nothing new that hasn’t been said since 2017, sorry but true. It too late in the game to think just buying a sweet car is going to make you RUclips famous.
The back of car getting dirty is not brake dust, it is from the engine running rich. If it is no longer under warranty get a tune to eliminate it!
it is part carbon, part rubber from the tires
6:39 I am surprised there’s not an option forcarbon ceramics breaks

The lean of the seat is insane though
That is the same super charger that the c7 corvette Z06 has. Which are known to overheat alot. As cool as the zl1 6gen is, the LT4 super charger is not the best. Thats why alot of people switch out the stock super charger on their ZL1 and get a Whipple. 6 gen camaro SS can beat a 6 gen ZL1 with a procharger and some heads and cam work and not even overheat.
You right, I hate that brakedust. I see you in Gwinentt, im in Dekalb with a 1le.
Yeah that green is sick 😎😎, Camaro is the only sports car I've never owned though, and the reason......from the driver's seat, you cannot judge where the front end is cause you can't see it. And when your doing some hair raising manuvors, I have to see the front. Other than that, it's a great looking car.👍👍oh and just get you some power stop brake pads, that will get rid of all that brake dust,
Brake dust is cool 🥰
I'd like to see that all done up I just subscribed please I absolutely love the zl1 kill it and drive her hard she likes it rough lol good bless
my 2023 3lt rs automatic seats go allll the way back and will touch my rear seats
I think it’s the type of brake pads your using that makes all that dust. Put heat wrap tape on the headers when you put them on. Get a bigger super charger that’s higher off of the engine. All your complaints are fixable. Good luck.
Complaining about brake dust on a car with track-ish pads, means the car isn't for you.
Like the car, not the color. I prefer black, looks mean.
Lay down on the passenger side. And get a five core radiator.
Sucks that Chevy traded “gangsta”level on the seats for 350HP……
Bro ain’t no way this boy is complaining about break dust like Bro from far away. Nobody’s gonna see that shit you had to get close for me to see that dust. I didn’t even see it from far.
I don't l I like alcantara in a car at all, I'd rather have some nice Italian leather or just quality genuine leather through the car. Maybe a little bit of Alcantara, I like the feel of but don't want have to touch it to drive the car. I can deal break dust, i don't my car hard but I still get but it's not as bad
blind spot thats what a side mirror is for
Nothing sucks about owning a ZL1! 😅
I get the point about the dusting of the brakes. What I understand about dusting, it’s actually due to the material’s ability to shed heat and also perform better. In other words, as I understand it, lower dusting pads are not going to perform as well. I’m sure people will disagree with that, but some really smart people had that conversation and I just happened to learn from them. Trust me though I know how annoying it is. Mainly because I’m a detailer and I hate how quick my wheels go from pristine to grimey ASF. Anyway, thanks for the insight! Liked and Subd 👍🙏👊
Oh and on the Alcantera, what do you use to clean it? I wonder if the Koche Chemie Pol Star cleaner would benefit you. It is INSANELY good at cleaning Alcantera from what I have seen. And I think it does add some protection.
Hellcat Brembos do the same thing. Black wheels with red calipers suck. Bought pads to take care of this, then some assholes stole the car. Don't park cars like this, drive them and then put them back in the fucking garage.
Lol don't let that brake dust keep you from buying a camaro ZL1.🤣😂🤣 Brake dust. Brake dust plus more brake dust.
Try some Akebono pads and swap them out yourself. Pretty easy to do.
Do they last long
How long they last they seem crappy
I want a matte black car with green lines
NICE VIDIO GREAT CAR YOUR AREA LOOKS GREAT U ARE ON 1 AC PLOT
No black wheels or chrome wheels
Break Dust comes from buying Cheap Break pads.... The same for ANY CAR..... Nothing Exclusive to the ZL1...
easy task to modify the seats to fit anyone
It's a Track Car.... Not a Cadillac... Seat is made for track.....
Camaro content on yt becoming redundant 🤦🏾♂️just the same topics nothing new. No exciting builds racers or nun.
This shit expensive but I’m glad that’s what ppl want to see . Build coming soon
It’s 2023 bro…. These cars have been reviewed to the T….. you literally said nothing new that hasn’t been said since 2017, sorry but true. It too late in the game to think just buying a sweet car is going to make you RUclips famous.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Unless it's Green!😂
First world problems
You’re better off driving that pos Chevy cuv. That’s more your style.
Go get a skateboard board jr.
Thanks man you saved me a lot of money. Im not buying this car.
