Bro my lt1 came with rs package so ppl think it’s a v6 the read the lt1 on the sides then they ask if it’s the super charged camaro so some think it’s v6 some think it’s a zl1 😂
I went to autozone and got the slim, long blind spot mirrors and threw those on the mirror. Three years later they’re still looking new and are a major help. The style looks like they’re meant for the car. Perfect fit!
Couple of observations: 1) Blind spot issue.....Do you drive your car solo most of the time? Would removing the passenger headrest help? I also thought of adding a rearview camera full-time while the car is on and a small screen.....Maybe one of those rearview mirror types? 2) Cloth seats and less sporty should not be an issue, this is the cheapest V8 sports car you can buy......The limited recline IS a very valid issue. 3) No issues with the dashboard. It has the basic stuff plus xtras on the little screen. This is not about being flashy...it is about sports. 4) Agreed....Brakes in Red s/be standard. Paint job cost is BS for Chevy. 5) Supercharger? Dude....get real.....How much you want for $35K?
Damn basically all the bad things could of been optioned out on a higher trim level. The 6th gen camaro is one hell of a car and a great platform to build off of
Get a camera that records both front & rear. I have a camera that mounts to the rear view that can view the rear whenever you want. Both views can split as well 💯🇺🇸

@@Treyso4x no problem homie. I highly recommend you get that one. This camera is a game changer & well... cameras never lie....feel me.

I was designed one in 2015 but I simply did not have the time for it. I’d love to have a 360 degree recording for safety. Especially from dirty ass cops. Stay vigilant & drive safe 👊🏼💯
I had a Honda Accord and loved it it’s a great car so comfortable. I traded it in for a 2021 Camaro LT1. I like cloth seats. But I like leather more because I get less wedgies. The engine is why you buy this car period
Thanks my man for this video. I am seriously thinking about getting a Camaro and it is so good to see a review about the negatives so to speak. But the average MPG of 17.3 for a V8 is pretty impressive! I wanna get a V6 but am concerned about the fuel economy as I have a 4 Cylinder car right now. Thanks again.
LT1J, these 5 complaints are really really minor except for maybe the limited seat recline, the LT1 was created for people to get into a 455hp/455Tq 6.2 V8 on a budget and Chevy have delivered. One nice feature is if you get the 6spd manual it deletes/removes the AFM cylinder deactivation system from the engine which is nice. I have a 2016 Sierra 5.3 with AFM and on the trucks eventually you'll get a stuck AFM lifter and the cylinder head has to be removed to fix, I've done that repair on an 07' Silverado, annoying. My must have's if ordering/buying an LT1 would be the RS package, Tech Package 8" screen with 9 speaker Bose that believe it or not the Bose isn't available on a 1SS model but only the 2SS, dual mode exhaust and the grey painted split spoke wheels. That puts you into a V8 performance car for under $40g's. You just can't beat that. Yeah a 2SS is nice with leather, more tech savy instrument cluster, heads up display etc etc but it still has the same engine and the 2SS is heavier than the LT1. The only drawback would be the tires on the LT1 compared to the 1SS/2SS. This particular car has a unique paint scheme that actually looks pretty good. I can definitely live with the 5 minor complaints. You could hand paint the rear calipers to match the fronts in an afternoon, one issue solved for little $ spent.
He says he loves the car and then posts a video titled "5 reasons Why NOT to Buy the Camaro LT1". How's that for contradictory. Everything mentioned would be realized by anyone before they buy the car. Pull a pin on the seat? Complaining about the gloss on the brakes? What a waste of a time watching this nonsense.
Hate videos get more views than like videos he’s just Clickbait anymore. If you’re smart you’ll read my comments here and realize the six speed manual is the way to go with the LT1. This version is several hundred pounds lighter than the SS all you have to do is upgrade the wheels and tires and you’re good to go,,, faster than the SS
Bought a 2016 V6 new off the lot. I’m 6’2”, 175, and I have no problems with the seats or the visibility. I think the only problem I would have with the LT1 is the same problem I had with the V6... the 500 tread wear Goodyears that come stock are absolute trash.
Just picked up my 2022 LT1 only options are exhaust, infotainment Bose sound system, and black wheels.. I can afford a 1SS OR 2SS .. plain and simple the car has everything I need
number one thing i will say to all LT1 rookie owners or people who want one.....DO NOT RACE WITH TRACTION CONTROL OFF YOU WILL 100% LOOSE CONTROL WITH THEM SMALL ASS STOCK TIRES ON THE BACK
Hell yea just picked up my LT1 this week. Glad to see you have no real complaints. Mine has painted red front brakes and black wheels so I guess I only have 4 complaints lol
I personally hate leather interiors especially black ones. On a 90 degree day they are super uncomfortable. I have a 12 year old car with cloth seats and they still look like new. Can’t say that for the leather ones.
Unfortunately I ended up crashing my Subaru BRZ. But thankfully due to the market, I'm getting a great pay out from insurance. A nice 18 grand in my pocket. Thinking about getting maybe a Camaro for my next car. In terms of the dash cluster, I prefer a more basic system. Not a fan of having a bunch of large screens in my face.
You can move the seats all the way back if you wanted to you would have to press down on the seat button (the button where you move the seat forward and backwards) and it will actually move down and snug onto the rear seats. If it does go down but doesn’t snug on the rear seats then move the seats back.
Mines a 17' SS 6 speed manual. Bought mine new and coming up on 47k miles. All I have done is change fluids and tires. Pulls like a freight train and still looks and rides like new.
I bought the Lt1 Rs 10 speed manual and automatic. Shock green is the color. Very smooth riding car and powerful to say the least. Had it 6 months and only 2k miles
My biggest complaint would be how narrow the tires are. I saw one for the first time at the dealership while car shopping and noticed the 245 section width tires all around. I really like the wheel style but it needs more than 9" of tread width. I spec one on the website with the Recaro and 6 piston 14.6" Brembo.
I test drove a Camaro LT1 today and could not get comfortable in the seat, it would not recline far enough back the way I like it. Going to try a Mustang Mach 1 later today. Seat comfort is very important to me.
My idea for a new trim level: LT4 - it’s got the base Camaro design with a ZL1 supercharged engine, with some SS features including the hood, all 4 brembo breaks and an SS dashboard. Price tag being somewhere in between the 1SS and the 2SS This would be the cheapest supercharger in the market... I’d definitely buy it
Why didnt you get the leather seats, that is an OPTION? My complaint is the dash is TOO high and I am 6'. Brakes are ANOTHER option you could have chosen.
Noooooo! Convertible in any of those cars is a bad idea! My ZL1 is so fast! If my car was a convertible, it would take your head smooth off! After i get past 100mph! 🤷🏽♂️😂😂😂😂😂
Been looking at getting a 21' LT1 and your 5 dislikes are minor and fixable. So it's not a complete deal breaker You just can't beat the price. My question to you is was your exhaust stock too?
Very nice car bro! My wife and i purchased an LT1 back in March of this year. So far our current upgrades are, Rotofab Intake MRT Axle back exhaust Toni Mamo Ported throttle body. 255/40/20 Michelin Pilot Sport 4s all around. These cars are awesome. Keep it up👍
@@gtmike916 is it save to drive it heavy with the lack of coolers? Because as cool and affordable the lt1 trim is, ppl have to remember one of the compromises was a lack in cooling from the necessary coolers and the more air restrictive 1ls front end compared to the 1ss and 2ss front end with air ducts and a bigger cooling face. So the 1ss at least has the necessary cooling for the drivetrain
Video titled "5 reasons why not to buy a camaro" starts with a minute of "wow, I really love this vehicle, I don't know if I can even find 5 things I don't like" lol
Shit I like the low profile look of the calipers. Sleeper car for sure. It reminds me of the LX model fox bodies in the 80’s-90’s. Bare bones down to business, great car my guy. Cam, longtubes, e85, tune and a 200 shot an it’ll be a beast
LT1 they rob you on that 200MPH on the dash, because the LT1 comes standard with lower rated tires and thinner thread width in the back. SS models will put you around that 200MPH on the dash which is nice, I think you should definitely have that on your list, with the right tires the 6.2 liter deserves that higher ceiling
@@ALPHACARGUY I seen that not long after I commented and stand corrected. 🤣 It's not far off from the 1SS. I've been hunting for a 21' 1SS that's a decent price and hoping to find one mid to late of the year when the 22's come out. Maybe they will sell lower but in West Texas alot of places are quite proud of them.
five things you mention you can upgrade aftermarket parts the brakes you can upgrade around being the same calipers you can change dash speedometer yes you can change to the SS aftermarket the seats you can upgrade them with leather seats less than $1200 the radio you can change to the 8 inch I have the 8 inch in my car 2021 lt-1 any who everything you can upgrade aftermarket parts as cute as the GM parts anyway try to do a video on removing the pins off the seats thank you
i have a 2ss, if i can go back to buying a camaro i think LT1 is the best deal and bang for your buck. most people only need the engine and you get so much for it!
By the trunk opening, can you put anything bigger than a basketball in the trunk? I know there is ample room in the trunk, how about the LIMITED trunk lid opening?
Jay, I dig your color scheme! Alien camouflage. I have a pristine black 2016 LT1 Camaro and I noticed that you have an after market exhaust with a nice low growl for your V6! I want one! What is it?
Love the video man & very helpful. Been wanting to get a LT1 and I'm glad all the things you don't like are either cosmetics or things I'd modify later on anyway.
The only thing I hate about my 2018 Camaro 2SS is the gas door is on the passenger side. The passenger isn't normally pumping gas... The driver is. Hello, Chevrolet!!!!
The fifth dislike definitely isn’t relevant as the LT1 nor SS was ever offered with a supercharger lol but thanks for the video, a couple friends of mine have been convincing me to trade in my Stinger for a Camaro LT1 or SS, but after seeing this, gives me more insight to just spend the few extra thousands and get the SS.
After using them for 15 years I can't drive any car without them. By the biggest blind spot mirrors that can fit into both of your side view mirrors and you will feel like Mario Andretti. You can see everything in front of you to the windshield and you can see everything behind you using your side view magic mirrors
Bro you bought a small coupe v8 ? What exactly were you expecting you should of gone for a challenger it’s a coupe with lots of space or charger . The visibility idk I went from a charger to my lt1 shock and it don’t find the visibility an issue . I agree with the screen but you can easily switch for the digital one . My cam is 10 speed automatic it’s fast loud neck breaker the only issue is it has the rs lights. I wanted the other front lights and I agree about the brembo breaks they could of just gave us the breaks and switch the colors .
That shit still prolly can go 160 tho since its same engine lmao my 5th gen 2ss hit 165 so idk why a 6th gen with better engine wouldnt be able to do the same
Depends on how much you want to spend. If you’re going new and want the most car for your money the lt1 is a no brainer. Price per dollar can’t be beat. You can get a lt1 for 32k out the door. A new 1SS can be around 40k and a new 2SS can be damn near 50k🤯🤯🤯. Used 1SS and 2SS go for a few thousand more than a new lt1 depending on the mileage and year. So if if you’re wanting something used I’d personally go 2SS
The Camaro is a good car for me it’s not meant for some people as far as visibility I have a 2.0T the 4banger Camaro it’s quite swift the a rs 2LT package just a couple mods on it and I’m pushin just right at 300hp
Stumbled across your video today (Jan 6) but met you when I was up at Caffeine & Octane (I think in Oct). Normally not into the camo look but still think your car looks so good. My wife has a Garnet Red LT1 and we love everything about it except if you get the base sound system because it sucks big time. Definitely opt for the Bose upgrade if you can. I will agree with you on the seat backs and I thought that was crazy they didn't lean back any further, especially the passenger side.
travis branum What’s up bro I remember you lol ! I’m actually trying to add 2 speakers in those spots in the trunk you told me about that I didn’t get & then maybe a 10 inch sub. Love the vette & I’m sure your wife’s LT1 is badass too
I got the 2021 Lt1 with black wheels, red brembos up f front, 8" screen, then worked in cloth to leather upgrade with heat. I'm in Minnesota man, so heat is totally worth the cash. But also you can get a variety of colors, i went black with red center seats. Looks awesome.
Just what the dealer had that day. But really we are never happy, just waiting for time and money to drop a ZL1 front end on it, and a big wing. Wheels are next.
i paid for v6 33k for lt1 automatic 3 years ago imagine that complaining for getting v8 for 35k and on top of that saying it should have supercharger? for that price you can also get toyota camry or what ever ;p be happy for you got because at that time i didn't have that option
I like the LT1 because no one knows what model it is until you let it rip.
Yes
Bro my lt1 came with rs package so ppl think it’s a v6 the read the lt1 on the sides then they ask if it’s the super charged camaro so some think it’s v6 some think it’s a zl1 😂

i have a 2ss, if i can go back to buying a camaro i think LT1 is the best deal and bang for your buck. most people only need the engine and you get so much for it!
By the trunk opening, can you put anything bigger than a basketball in the trunk?
I know there is ample room in the trunk, how about the LIMITED trunk lid opening?
The opening is tight lol . If you’re putting anything big in there forget about it
Jay, I dig your color scheme! Alien camouflage. I have a pristine black 2016 LT1 Camaro and I noticed that you have an after market exhaust with a nice low growl for your V6! I want one! What is it?
Not a V6 LOL
I’m getting one next year. Had to buy house first. I’m gonna cry once and get the 2ss hopefully just gotta save a good down payment
Right on ... it’s well worth it
I performed the seat mod in order to recline my seat all the way . It’s a real b, but worth it.
Love the video man & very helpful. Been wanting to get a LT1 and I'm glad all the things you don't like are either cosmetics or things I'd modify later on anyway.
Yuuup
The only thing I hate about my 2018 Camaro 2SS is the gas door is on the passenger side. The passenger isn't normally pumping gas... The driver is. Hello, Chevrolet!!!!
All fords have Bluetooth on it. It’s just mainly a small screen and buttons. However though I’m digging this LT1 a little bit.
I own a 21 2ss 1le and i dont have a problem with visibility at all.
The fifth dislike definitely isn’t relevant as the LT1 nor SS was ever offered with a supercharger lol but thanks for the video, a couple friends of mine have been convincing me to trade in my Stinger for a Camaro LT1 or SS, but after seeing this, gives me more insight to just spend the few extra thousands and get the SS.
If i had that wrap id hate it too
I took the passenger head rest out that helps but they should have made the quarter windows bigger.
After using them for 15 years I can't drive any car without them. By the biggest blind spot mirrors that can fit into both of your side view mirrors and you will feel like Mario Andretti. You can see everything in front of you to the windshield and you can see everything behind you using your side view magic mirrors
Nice ride bro!
U gotta push the other button down to make the seat lean back more
Nice car man. Love the wrap
Appreciated man
Car looks awesome you have a nice talent with the work u have done sweet
Appreciated !
How much did the wrap cost u bro ??
i am pissed about how far the seats go back i sell chevys and an SS seats have more flex and go back more idk y they dont on lt1s
Subscribed I'm thinking about getting one over a 5.0, SS, and RT mainly the price. I'm gone pay that extra 900 for the better sound system
you can replace the basic dash with a 2ss dash for like 600
Yup I gotta video doing it to mine
Enjoy the ride
Thanks
Thats the point. It a clean canvas to start from. The power is there for ya. DUH... And I dont have a problem with the so call blind spot.
I’ve been waiting for this one !
Bro you bought a small coupe v8 ? What exactly were you expecting you should of gone for a challenger it’s a coupe with lots of space or charger . The visibility idk I went from a charger to my lt1 shock and it don’t find the visibility an issue . I agree with the screen but you can easily switch for the digital one . My cam is 10 speed automatic it’s fast loud neck breaker the only issue is it has the rs lights. I wanted the other front lights and I agree about the brembo breaks they could of just gave us the breaks and switch the colors .
YOU CAN ADD THE SS GAUGE ASSEMBLY! Or dash " there's videos of it on TH-cam!
Main thing I’ve noticed is LT1 has 160 on the dash compared to the 200 on the SS
That shit still prolly can go 160 tho since its same engine lmao my 5th gen 2ss hit 165 so idk why a 6th gen with better engine wouldnt be able to do the same
Looks good bro. Been watching your vids. Torn between the 1SS 2SS or the LT1 myself.
Depends on how much you want to spend. If you’re going new and want the most car for your money the lt1 is a no brainer. Price per dollar can’t be beat. You can get a lt1 for 32k out the door. A new 1SS can be around 40k and a new 2SS can be damn near 50k🤯🤯🤯. Used 1SS and 2SS go for a few thousand more than a new lt1 depending on the mileage and year. So if if you’re wanting something used I’d personally go 2SS
@@ALPHACARGUY i paid 41k for my 2020 1SS 1LE on June 2nd. At 32k for a LT1, thats a hell of a deal!
@@ALPHACARGUY I though the 1 SS was just 3 thousand more? It can be that overpriced now...
SS2 without question
And my seats lean back and they go back so far the seat is touching the back seat
The Camaro is a good car for me it’s not meant for some people as far as visibility I have a 2.0T the 4banger Camaro it’s quite swift the a rs 2LT package just a couple mods on it and I’m pushin just right at 300hp
Stumbled across your video today (Jan 6) but met you when I was up at Caffeine & Octane (I think in Oct). Normally not into the camo look but still think your car looks so good. My wife has a Garnet Red LT1 and we love everything about it except if you get the base sound system because it sucks big time. Definitely opt for the Bose upgrade if you can. I will agree with you on the seat backs and I thought that was crazy they didn't lean back any further, especially the passenger side.
travis branum What’s up bro I remember you lol ! I’m actually trying to add 2 speakers in those spots in the trunk you told me about that I didn’t get & then maybe a 10 inch sub. Love the vette & I’m sure your wife’s LT1 is badass too
@@ALPHACARGUY My wife just said she has to go get a sub and add it....lol
Lol we definitely need it
Oh man, Idk how much the LT1s are, but I think a lot of things you could have gotten for a slightly used 2SS.
Lt1 like 33k check cargurus sometimes they cheaper
@@jessiezuniga7401 If buying new lt1 base with manual no options and buying from true value cars dealers you can buy it for 29,000:) NEW!
Surprised you didn't mention skip-shift.
It is for safety reason. Most people Don’t lean back. 😆
where did you get your front splitter and side skirts from?
Extreme online store
nice car man how much did you get yours for
You can get leather and heated seats for like $1500 from your dealer. They have a ton of options too.
I need to check that out. Been thinking about just doing some nice artificial leather seat covers, but I really like the Recaros that come in the 1LEs
I got the 2021 Lt1 with black wheels, red brembos up f front, 8" screen, then worked in cloth to leather upgrade with heat.
I'm in Minnesota man, so heat is totally worth the cash.
But also you can get a variety of colors, i went black with red center seats. Looks awesome.
john mcdonald wish mine would have came with the 8 inch screen screen and painted Brembos ... jealous lol
Just what the dealer had that day. But really we are never happy, just waiting for time and money to drop a ZL1 front end on it, and a big wing. Wheels are next.
@@therealjonnyringo wait I’m late you can go to your Chevy dealer and get leather seats if you buy them?
Yoo what in texas I bought my Camaro 2ss fully loaded for 42k wild cherry and brown interior
That color combo is dope. I love the brown interiors
I love the camo! That’s big body hard.
Preciate you bro 🙌🙌🙌
@@ALPHACARGUY it’s all love homie ✊🏽
A blower might destroy the engine or shorten its life. I think you're better with naturally aspirated.
i paid for v6 33k for lt1 automatic 3 years ago imagine that complaining for getting v8 for 35k and on top of that saying it should have supercharger? for that price you can also get toyota camry or what ever ;p be happy for you got because at that time i didn't have that option
