I dig that blue. The ZL1 definitely looks mean and so much better for not having a full black hood. I hate that look on the 1LE vids I've watched. I hate to say it, as I think the car is still way too big, but I'm tempted to cross-shop this and the gt350 when I'm in the market 2-3 years from now. Hopefully, there will be an awesome Z35 to make the decision easy!

Must be nice...

The ZL1 is a nice vehicle, no doubting its performance capabilities. I still believe the Camaro is too big. It is a 2+2, more comparable to the Nissan GT-R than the Z.

Picked up a 2017 ZL1 last night. Fantastic car and so much better than I expected. Loved the previous 2014 1LE but the new Gen 6 is just so much better. While I know the ZL1 isn't exactly a light weight car it sure doesn't feel like it when driving it. Very nimble and easily tossable in a turn. So much grip when going into a turn as well. Still need to learn the car before pushing it too much, as well as the break in period but it is amazing to say the least. The power is just scary. Will update more later when home.

It seems like the best performance bang-for-the-buck nowadays by far. Enjoy and share some pics if you would!

Can anyone make out what's written on the calipers? Is it "Chevrolet"?
