  • The Z28 has always been the baddest of the Camaro line-up. But it’s never been as expensive or hard-core as this version. This Z28 sits atop the Camaro models with a naturally aspirated 7.0L engine, carbon-ceramic brakes, and a 70k price-tag. How does this king of Camaros compare and contrast with the king of the Dodge Challengers, the Hellcat. The guys drive on long fast straights and tight back roads, then debate.

    I like the Camaro Z/28 because of the 7.0 liter LS7 engine. I want one so bad....the exhaust sounds so old school, love it!

      What about the valve issue? Does the Z28 drop valves like the C6 Z06 and detonate the motor? Are these not the same engines?

    Given the choice, I'd rather have the Z/28. The hardware and that fantastic LS7 is worth it to me.

  • @coureurdebois
    @coureurdebois 9 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    CLEAR winner here. The Z/28 is not just about track only... its the fact that its far more engaging, aggressive, and raw that it WINS. anyone whos going to spend close to 70k on a sports car will normally have a daily driver and they want a sports car that will thrill them on the road and the Z/28 is simply better at that job.
    at the end of the day the Z/28 will be every bit as fast as the hellcat in the real world and manage to be far better at taking a nice winding road or twisty canyon.
    not all roads are made 1/4 miles flats at a time ;)

    I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't really care for interior as much as a lot of other people or reviewers. If it's sturdy, it's good enough for me. I don't care about soft touch and all that but maybe it's because I've grew up around older model cars that I find comfortable

      Our cars are products of our environment. Most of our roadways are long, straight, and wide stretches of highways. So our cars were designed around that premise. Its simply is the DNA of our cars, where as European and Asian cars were designed more around tight, curvy, much older road ways that go through various topographies. Granted there are similar areas such as this canyon in the video on the West coast and various mountain roads in America, mostly our roads are straight with swooping curves here and there thus our product reflects that. Im sure I am not telling you things you dont already know, but just in case hope this simple explanation helps. Also our major interstate highway systems where designed during the cold war for efficient troop movements during Eisenhower's presidency in case a land attack occurred on our soil. Just some history for you.

  • @hasanmichael4966
    @hasanmichael4966 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Race track = Camaro... GT car = Hellcat... Drag car = Hellcat.. DD = Hellcat. My vote goes to the Challenger. I only DD, I only race myself, but I got the Scat Pack. It's way more comfortable and I like the old school look. It's also a really big car, which I like. If you don't like heavy cars you won't like either I think. But they are just such different cars, you do need both I think. Challenger for the commute, Camaro for the weekend.

    • @hasanmichael4966
      @hasanmichael4966 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also, with a few after market suspension upgrade (springs, sway bars, also better tires) you can vastly improve the handling of the Challenger. Unsure of aftermarket parts for the Camaro but it sounds like it's no needed.

    • @hasanmichael4966
      @hasanmichael4966 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      One more coment about the Z28, it is a lot more expensive than the Hellcats. You can walk off the lot with a Branch new Hellcat for just over $60K. The Z28s have been more than $15K over that price. When I went to buy my Scat Pack the dealership had like 8 Challenger Hellcat's and a hand full of Charger Hellcat's stickered for between $60k-$65K. They were trying to unload all their 2019 models. Still have a few on the lot, same price.

But either one is going to make you very happy . Keep up the great work guys!

  • @TheCarVlogger
    @TheCarVlogger 9 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    The biggest problem with the Z/28 is the price. At $74,000 you're just $5,000 off from a C7 Z06. With that you get much more power, substantially less weight, a much faster car, and no offense but its a Corvette not a Camaro, which would you rather been seen driving? I'm not gonna get into the new vs used debate but if you wanted to a C6 Z06 with basically the same setup as the Z/28 can be had for less than half the price.

    • @hikeskool
      @hikeskool 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      TheCarVlogger by "I'm not gonna get into the new vs used debate" you really meant "I fully intend to get into the new vs used debate, which is why I am presenting a used car option directly following a new car option", correct?

      hikeskool No. Key word here is debate; I stated I'm not gonna start some big debate about the argument. That being said, I'm simply offering up a quick point on the other side of the spectrum for anyone who's interested.

      TheCarVlogger you start your entry with an invalid complaint about a new car price and end with what you think may present a better value in a used car yet insist you don't want to "get into the new vs used debate".

    @aesho46 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I have owned a mustang, Camaro, SRT and corvette all in the past, so I'm a fan of all. Z28 is not as great as people think. They get fooled because of those trofeo R tires. You put those tires on 80 percent of the cars out there and it's night and day the way a car performs. Had they put the trofeos on the hellcat they would have seen for themselves. Not saying the hellcat would have been faster on a track then the Z28 but those trofeos do make a huge difference.

    • @Flabernat
      @Flabernat 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      A car's suspension is tuned for the tires. You can't throw stickier tires on any car and get the same kind of performance gains... And since you seem to have no concept of this, I'll provide an article that proves exactly my point.
      Tires do make a different, but they're not everything as you elude to... You also forgot the Brembo carbon ceramic brakes, and the SSV spoolvalve suspension(and a LOT more)...

      Flabernat chris harris just did a video. He put the trofeos on a gt3 which already come with amazing cup 2 tires and he shaved 2 second off his lap time with the cup 2 tires. Go to his channel and check it out

    • @Flabernat
      @Flabernat 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Andy Esho ...yeah, and? It would be even faster if the car was setup for Trofeo R's.

    • @aesho46
      @aesho46 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Flabernat I did read it. Regardless my whole point of putting the trofeo on a hellcat will make a big difference whether it's set up for it or not. I'm correct!!!!

    • @bobhope4288
      @bobhope4288 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The tires are one of the biggest handling improvement available. It's not at all about a suspension setup for those tires, it is however about damper valving and spring rates set up for that vehicle. Quality dampers and good tires are really what sets the z/28 package apart handling wise, those brakes are what set lap times.
      Camaro + Tires + Dampers + Brakes = z/28
      Hellcat + Tires + Dampers + Brakes = 707hp z/28
      S2000 + Forced induction + Tires + Dampers + Brakes = Track car.
      The same improvements can be made to any car, it's no magical tuning done by mythical engineering gods, it's the same mods any track enthusiast would make, only this time the factory did the mods.

  • @jared062398
    @jared062398 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Im a fan of the Hellcat but I would take a Z/28 over any car in this world. Ive never really been into exotics because for what you pay, you can literally go build a muscle car or any other car and make it just as fast if you have the money. The Z/28 is 505 naturally aspirated hp. For the extra money that you'd pay on a Hellcat, you can go put a supercharger, tune, headers, and exhaust and make way more hp and be able to take corners. But thats just my opinion.

    The easy choice for me would be the Camaro Z/28...Although I would choose a Hellcat over a ZL1.
    But that back-to-the-basics, and simplistic approach to performance with the Z/28 makes me giggle with excitement just watching people drive it. I would do just about anything to get behind the wheel of one, especially on a track!

  • @pabloavilaii1730
    @pabloavilaii1730 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    the zl1 produces more hp and torque than the z28 so im not sayin youre wrong about the z28 being the "ultimate camaro" "the hottest thing chevy makes for the camaro" or "its king of its lineup/the most camaro you can buy" im just sayin the zl1 is an option which would make those statements not right..............

      Pablo Avila II same gen Cameron the Z28 is faster than the ZL1. The new alpha platform ZL1 is faster but, you can pick up a lightly used Z/28 for around 40. The new ZL1 for 60+...just food for thought.

    Camaro FTW! It's just better looking than the challenger. Exactly as you guys said the camaro It's just more aggressive and looks like a muscle car that was built for the track straight from the factory. where the challenger is more like a muscle that would take on a long road trip. Don't get me wrong the challenger is a beast all in it's own 707 hp is a blast but the camaro is just more fun. I will say the challenger by far has the better interior but you don't buy a muscle car for the interior right?..no you buy it for the POWERRRR or until you scare your family and friends into crapping their pants which ever comes first lol

    Love this video, 2 amazing engines, one amazing car, and a rocket. but I am a modding guy, so would I get them cars, nope, why? simple way expensive and yet can be made with aftermarket parts and then you can make it even better for you. and I appreciated the honest talk you guys did. but in today world, 750 is a good start. I would even call it an old Track racers dream car, but for me, they are too heavy, to high, not aerodynamic bricks that do well but if you have a real light car, and no wind resistance, they would just be even better. but if I was to buy a car in that range I would get a CTS-V or a Vette and mod that. and the Paganini, is a nice art car, and a fast one but not for me, Ultima Cars, and LS7 and this coming from a guy that loves the look of the Movie Turbo's Camaro. but the interior or the Camaro, well its ugly, if someone puked on the dash it would be an improvement. why? that pod thing well its like ok for say a 2002 Saturn or an ashtray, but out of place in a edge line car. and they could put the car on a diet, I am A GM Fan, but really lets get the saws-all and cut up that dash.

    I find the Camaro to be a great car, but the visibility has me shying away. I'd probably get the Hellcat,or any Challenger over the Camaro for that alone. That said, I'll probably trade up my 2011 Focus for the new Focus RS when it comes out here in the states. Much as I love big V8s and loud sports cars, I have a 110 mile drive round trip 6 days a week. I'd be broke from fuel alone.

  • @Lukos0036
    @Lukos0036 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I don't think there are any really light production cars anymore. Weight is something that is just a reality drivers must deal with. Jaguars (the XJsomethingoranother and F-type) are 4 thousand pounds and have been for a while now, Aston Vantage and DB9 are uber heavy, everything coming out of the UK and Germany is starting to look and sound a lot more like American cars than American cars are. You can get a Miata yes, or a Lotus, or buy a dedicated track toy like an Atom or Mono, but for velocity and noise you can't do much better than a 3500 to 4000+ pound automobile. Aluminum cannot mitigate hundreds of pounds of computers, sensors, a dozen other mandated things that make a car safe at speed. It's just the way of things. If you want one car that can do everything, you are going to be chubby. But I don't think that matters as much as it used to because the performance is still there.

    These two cars shouldn't be compared at all! I understand the Z/28 is the closest Camaro in price to the Hellcat, but it is a road-legal track car! It is just straight up a hardcore track weapon, while the Hellcat is an amazing GT car, a Grad Tourer! It is big, heavy and comfortable 707 horsepower yacht. My 2 cents is that the ZL1 should've been picked.

    I think if I was looking at the z/28, I would just go all the way and get the corvette Z06. The hellcat on the otherhand is a legitimately fun car to drive everyday (if you wanted). It is plush, comfortable, and insane all at the same time. Hellcat is definitely the better deal for most...much more bang for your buck.

    They put a street muscle/ grand tour up against a purpose built track car, interesting. Okay now let us talk about the money $78,000 as opposed to $62,000. For the difference the suspension, tires and some engine tweaking and still be under the Camaro price. I wonder how the Z28 would fare after you even out the price difference?

  • @NoahBB
    @NoahBB 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    EverydayDriver How do you think the Z51 equipped C7 compares to the Z/28 in terms of pace on back roads / canyons? Seems like with a better set of tires it could keep up? (if you go 19"s all around you can easily run Pilot Sport Cup 2s or Trofeo Rs on the Z51).

  • @ZoHBo
    @ZoHBo 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Quite debatable that this is the "most Camaro you can buy". The ZL1 is MUCH more potent, and unless it is a very tight cornered track it'll pull on the Z/28 because of the speed it makes up in the straights.

    Under 100 grand you're in SRT Viper territory and C7 Z06 both are about 85 grand. The C7 Z06 with it's stage 3 aero pack might get closer to 100k buy a base Viper with Carbon Aero kit and Track pack boom roughly an extra 150 pounds of down force Pirelli P ZERO Corsa's and bigger brakes basically a T/A for 90 grand just a tad heavier.

  • @GodIHateYouKenny
    @GodIHateYouKenny 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    the guy claims the Z28 to be the "most" that Camaro has to offer...technically that is only true as it pertains to track racing. A better, more apt comparison to the Hellcat would be the ZL1, which is considerably more powerful than the Z28 & NOT specifically designed for track usage. Just the WRONG Camaroto compare to a Hellcat, which is NOT designed for the track!

  • @whiteandnerdytuba

  • @SS-wm1wy
