    When RP keeps a car this long, you know it’s a solid choice.

    Coming from a 2018 zl1 owner with over 110,000 miles the only issue I have with the car is I eat up tires so quick lmao. But best car I've ever owned hands down.
  • @kook4u
    I appreciate that you show a clip of everything you talk about. Lots of extra work but much appreciated as a viewer.

    Great review RP. Your channel is the reason I bought a very lightly used '18 2SS 1LE last Sept. Amazing car for the money and enough power for me... for now.
  • @firehawk584
    of all the different people doing reviews, I like how you do it the best so far. much more in-depth 1st person prospective

    12,000 miles in one year… I already put just over 10,000 miles in three month’s 😁 I love the ZL1 💯
  • @zl1David
    I like the wild cherry tintcoat available for this year. Just ordered a zl1 in that color. The dealer said " be prepared to wait. "
  • @melvinlard
    I've never seen someone trade out of regular cars so often. RP spends enough in dealer fees, taxes, and titling over the course of a few years that if he just stayed in one car and saved the money have a super car!

    Just subscribed. Your expression while driving is just like me. My ZL1 1LE makes me smile and/or laugh every time I drive it. I agree it doesn’t need anything, but I was just looking at some minor upgrades (cai, pulley, tune for 91 (AZ)) when I stumbled on your videos. I love this car! My brakes squeal too. I got it used. I’ve heard they need to be bedded in properly. I’m hoping once I do that, it will take care of the noise. Nice video!

    I just picked up an LT1 Camaro and love it! It's been a dream for me to get a newer Camaro with the 6.2 liter V8.
  • I’ve had mine 2 years now and I’m still completely happy. It’s a fun car that still feels fast ass shit. Great bang for buck.
  • RP Productions Great Video I'm glad you've had a Great year with your 2017 Camaro ZL1 and I can't wait to see a C8 Z51 Stingray on the Channel

    My wife has a new LT1 and we absolutely love it. I recently traded my 17 Mustang GT premium in for a new C7 and she traded her Challenger (sxt plus) and I will say the Camaro is pretty much my favorite to drive. There is even a small part of me that kind of likes driving her Camaro a little better than my C7, I think the 10sp vs the 8sp makes the difference. Her Camaro feels so fast and I could only imagine driving a ZL1. They really are a great car and by you having your's for so long is a testament to that. Totally agree with you and my 2 main complaints would be the trunk opening and getting in and out in tight spaces. Visibility isn't really that bad especially compared to her Challenger which was about the same.
  • I’m following your footsteps slightly. Sold my cammed 2012 GrandSport in January. Just got an opportunity to pick up a mint Blue 2018 Zl1. Backseat much needed with my sons. Great vid and congrats on the C8 👍🏻🏁
