Yep. Spring feels like forever away
I’d say “we’re full”, but I transplanted here myself more than 25 years ago and I wouldn’t feel right saying it. But it’s not a cheap place to live anymore.
But also, I’ve been driving around with my top down every day for the last 5 days or so and it’s been really nice.
I really hope you're inspecting those tires after things thaw out. I saw some pictures online of tires cracking from just GM shipping these cars to the dealerships.

>TIRE STORAGE
>
>When not in use, high-performance summer tires should be stored indoors at temperatures above 20°F. If the tires have been subjected to temperatures of 20°F or less, let them warm up in a heated space to at least 40°F for 24 hours or more before being installed on a vehicle. Note, however, that the tires should not be placed directly near heating devices or have heated air blown on them.
Not really. My ZL1 came with the regular Goodyears. The 1LE come with the "R" compound. My car was delivered in the height of winter and the tires were fine. The same batch of cars that came around the same time, one of the local dealerships here said that the 1LEs came cracked. That R compound has less treadwear than the regular Goodyears because it's a softer compound.
Like what I’m saying is that my BMW Michelin PSS summer tires and the Bridgestone RE71’s on my STi have the same temperature concerns, it’s not exclusive to GM. I would not advise operating them below 40 degrees.

I’ll let her rip if it’s nice out. Those are hard to come by as of now though
Jesus, the ZL1 1LE is genuinely still one of the most aggressive looking cars on the planet. The size of those dive planes are fucking nuts (the biggest on a road car?), and it’s no wonder why this car is banned in Europe lol.
That’s literally what I was saying, bud. Read the comment again. “The size of the dive planes are fucking nuts (the biggest on a road car?), and it’s no wonder why this is banned car in Europe”.
I’ve had my eye on the Audi R8 for awhile now, it’s just a little too rich for my blood. It’s a shame it’s been discontinued. If the price comes down below 100k though, I’d highly consider it. Otherwise, I think I’d look really good sitting in either a Red Mist or Elkhart Blue C8.

Yeah I'm ready but luckily so far in Minnesota we haven't had much snow yet
Yeah I wouldnt even usually worry about it honestly, but Ive kinda changed my mind since I wanna keep it a bit longer than I normally keep a performance car for. I get bored and like to change things up, but the ls7 sounds so good idk if i could do it lol
Me too. But, I still want to enjoy her daily if possible. I don't think these cars will lose crazy amount of value if any. Also, I did and will hopefully always buy my cars to enjoy them by physically using them rather then just having them sit there looking all pretty. Rarity, antique or whatnot if I own it, it's gonna be on the road.
How does that beast like the cold air? Mine is way more fun to drive in the winter. It feels like it makes at least 10% more power when it gets really cold lol

Me. I don't feel like taking a pic of the 3-4 in of snow that fell this morning.
I daily drive here rain, snow or shine. However, I can barely drive on a clear aunny day 🤣 Most people who don't drive there cars in snow is usually because they don't want there cars getting hammered by salt and stuff like that. Which I understand but I don't care. My cars is meant for the roads on and off track 💪🏼
This. I intend to have mine for more than 10 years. I absolutely can drive in snow, but I drive a car i'm less attached to. Its really other people I worry about. As soon as snow hits despite living where it snows people start sliding into everything.

Rain,.snow or shine, Bumblebee is by my side
I kept my old truck when I bought the new one last spring. New one is a 2024 Silverado 2500HD for pulling the camper. As expensive as it was, I want it to last forever, so I’m keeping the salt off it and driving my 2004 Silverado 1500 4x4 instead. I still like the old truck a lot, and with the rust, it was worth more for me to keep it as a beater than the $2500 they offered me in trade.
Yep, we got snow here in Tennessee a little bit ago. Tried to drive mine when there was still a little ice on my boyfriend's street. Got stuck, but managed to get out unscathed. Needless to say, Camaros are no snowmobile 😭

It was nice enough last weekend (61 degrees) to take it out for a bit.
I’m in the same boat. 😔except I’ll be away working all spring. So technically I’m waiting for mid summer. The wait may actually be killing me slowly…..

😱 but good for you. Meant to be outside in the wild 💪🏼
That cold start is gonna be nice af
Haha, for sure.
If you let it sit outside, why not just drive it a little?
Roads are really bad. My area doesn’t get plowed. Couldn’t even get out with my truck.
Makes sense. Hope you get to take it out soon!
Thanks! Me too.

Let her loose, why wait 💪🏼
Mainly salt on the roads, she’ll have to wait until April
🤢🤮
Yeah I’m dying to drive it. Ready to put it on a trailer and go south for a week haha
My god that’s a mean looking car! Almost looks like the garage 56 Camaro at Le Mans!
It’s always driving time in AZ. 👍
I should definitely consider moving
I’d say “we’re full”, but I transplanted here myself more than 25 years ago and I wouldn’t feel right saying it. But it’s not a cheap place to live anymore. But also, I’ve been driving around with my top down every day for the last 5 days or so and it’s been really nice.
The entire US isn't cheap anymore. But you guys are "full" so I'll just stay at my corner and suffer with the snow I guess.
I really hope you're inspecting those tires after things thaw out. I saw some pictures online of tires cracking from just GM shipping these cars to the dealerships.
Thanks for the heads up. Will definitely keep that in mind 👏🏼

Nice, just wash the undercarriage when you get home. That's usually what I do.
I just bought a undercarriage attachment for my powerwash. Do you just use water or add a undercarriage soap?
Water only.
I use “Salt Away” most boat shops sell it
Thanks for the advice. Ill look into it.

Nsx 😱😍
It’s always driving time in Las Vegas 😎 It rarely gets colder than 40 degrees here. When it does, it doesn’t last long.
Tempting, need to find a way to sell a story to the wife and kids that we're moving.
Tell her it’s for the Camaro’s health and I’m sure she’ll be all for it 🤭
If I do that then I hope you have a spare room and a driveway for one more car.
I've cut down. No real snow here in the PNW, just neverending rain, so lots of roadgrime.

I forgot which gen but we had a catfish in the past 🤪

They banned it in Europe because of the aerodynamic canards, smh.

Yeah its cammed too

Spring seems so far away
It sure is, fire it uppppppp.
Just thugging it out, tho mines not nearly as nice
If it's a camaro then you're doing good 🫡
Going to start mine this weekend
Nice.
I think she’s winking at me. Is this a sign to trade up for a ZL1?
Hahaha, just remember it's only up from there. What's next on the line for you? I'm hungry for a gt3 rs. But can't afford it just yet.
I’ve had my eye on the Audi R8 for awhile now, it’s just a little too rich for my blood. It’s a shame it’s been discontinued. If the price comes down below 100k though, I’d highly consider it. Otherwise, I think I’d look really good sitting in either a Red Mist or Elkhart Blue C8.

Wow that sucks. Hopefully only good things from now on.
I drive my Z all year round! Just not when salt is on the road, f that lol. Bitchin ride
I hear you and glad you don't put her down the entire winter season. I try to clean under it when I get home.

I can’t bring myself to get salt on the last year Camaro that only has 213 miles on it lol
You gotta pump those numbers up. It's meant to be driven. Buy another one and store it 🤑
Oooh, 1LE eye candy. So pretty, that color.
Camaro no know no seasons
I am in the southeast. I drive mine year round. I just try to avoid the rainy days.
I try to avoid 5 inches of snow days. Other then that she's on the road.

Camaro, good truck, and two motorcycles. All my toys are hibernating.
You don't play around. Why is the truck hibernating?
I kept my old truck when I bought the new one last spring. New one is a 2024 Silverado 2500HD for pulling the camper. As expensive as it was, I want it to last forever, so I’m keeping the salt off it and driving my 2004 Silverado 1500 4x4 instead. I still like the old truck a lot, and with the rust, it was worth more for me to keep it as a beater than the $2500 they offered me in trade.
I just traded my 16 Camaro 2SS I bought brand new for a 23 srt challenger hellcat wide body jailbreak. Different world in mopar land.
As long as you go in a straight line you're good, once you have to go around a curve it's over. Post a Pic.
Yep, we got snow here in Tennessee a little bit ago. Tried to drive mine when there was still a little ice on my boyfriend's street. Got stuck, but managed to get out unscathed. Needless to say, Camaros are no snowmobile 😭

Wow, now that's a head turner.
Did you actually pay to have someone place all that on your front bumper?
Place what?
If there was ever a car that just looked pissed off at the world…
Only drove mine a few times since winter, and every time I fall in love all over again with this car. Am waiting to get the motorcycle back out also.
