Road Test: 2011 Chevrolet Camaro SLP ZL1

[joblo1978]

You could build that yourself for considerably less than 80k. What a joke!

[Mr131211109876543210]

This is imagination.

[Mr131211109876543210]

I'd rather have a Volt, but I don't have enough value.

[bigenginesismythang]

y do the headlights look like the mustangs

[bcatz454]

80k of aftermarket stuff on a 35k car? That is absolutely NUTS. Not saying its a slow car or anything but it needs some chassis strengthening, at least a roll bar.

[IDontHateOnCars]

Nice !!!

[OldsPowered69]

a guy at a car show here in southern california had one...A truly astonishing vehicle.

[evils1z28]

the video looks like it was taken in 1980s !! i wonder after 20 years it's gonna be sour !! haha

[oinkyerdoinkyerzwazz]

It Took 42 years for a camaro to match or better the quarter mile time of a 1969 camaro zl1.The 69 did it in 11.2 sec.The 69 however,was 2 seconds faster from 60 mph to 129mph,than the 2011.

[camirocz]

@oinkyerdoinkyerzwazz Nostock camaro ever ran 11.2 thats baloney!!!!!!!!!!In your dreams never did it happen anywhere else.The tire technology in 69 wouldnt allow it.f70-14 tires on six inch wide wheels will never let you go low 11s.

[blaneysiktube]

i wana punch tht american guy

[biker5754]

That will be able to kick gt-r and gt500 ass

[1IImrxII1]

No it does not ...... Only thing I hate about this car is that it should have a unique look like the Shelby gt 500 that screams awesome

[1IImrxII1]

Holy shit did he just say 0-60 in 3.2 seconds that's faster than a corvette and can take a Nissan gtr ..., and for the price it sounds like competition

[7stefan7vn]

@1IImrxII1 Nissan GT-R cost about $20000 less and does 0-60 in 2.9 seconds.

[MaxwellReviresco]

@7stefan7vn Well technical the GTR does 3.1 sec w/o 1 foot of rollout(insideline) In this video they didn't say if 3.2sec was w/ or w/o rollout. 0-60times have almost nothing to do w/ a car except useable traction. Then the 1/4 mile in a GTR is 11.1@124 while this Camaro runs it in 11.1@129. So catch the Camaro anywhere except luckily side by side @ red light & this Camaro would walk a GTR. Then there is the spirt of a MT&RWD not a DSG&AWD,this car goal is built around character not on paper #'s

[7stefan7vn]

@MaxwellReviresco This Camaro is also a modified car with a big v8, a GTR has a smaller engine thats capable of a lot by doing a little and you just cannot beat Japanese reliability. Also look at the whole Skyline history, these guys know what they are doing and its not just straight line racing as it is with most muscle cars.

[MaxwellReviresco]

@7stefan7vn Sure it is a moded, as is the TT V6 that is more advanced DOHC vs push rod. Then u have DSG, lc, AWD ATTESA system, so naturally is should be a better track car. See what u pay for is a more sprited V8 on tap power from idle, RWD, MT & the spirt of a muscle car. What's Skylines history compared to Camaro...lol..really, come on man. I mean GTR's are a tech geeks wet dream, but I'd rather have something I can take pride in taming, rather than anyone being able to drive a GTR fast ;-)

[camirocz]

@MaxwellReviresco This car also cost over 110 0000 an insane amount of money for a camaro .Better to get a real zl1 from g.m and do a few upgrades it will be just as fast.

[1mlb704]

:O Holy Hell! This thing is crazy!!

[Locruid]

Say what you want...11.1 for a street car is freakin nuts.

[8xxABHIxx8]

Those exhaust tips look like fart cans from far away tbh. When I first saw them it reminded me of those Civic fart cans.

[who27moon]

i dig the wide base, definitely a rally car in my opinion

[wildman00sax]

Random Lamborghini Gallardo @ 3:08!



[Camaros5678]

80k is defintitely paying for a name. You can get that motor, supercharger, brakes, suspension, for 50k at most installed by a reliable shop.

[DennisV16]

haha spend another 9000 and you can get a 2012 trans am designed by kevin morgan that has 1200 hp........ 750 hp is pussy shit

[Camaros5678]

@DennisV16 then wheres your videos of proving you can handle even 750hp?

[sahiel5]

im a mustang man but i admit its cool...

cool but not worth an 111k

[PopgunMcGee]

Did anybody else notice the hood at 2:50?

[Roddy451]

@PopgunMcGee Even worse, it is not the hood, it is the front fascia... Unacceptable at such a price and pretty bad on a limited edition car.. and I am a Chevy freak...

[kon854]

i want that car so bad

[tomsws6]

While its alot of money but the straight line performance is in ZR1 territory. Usually the tuner cars like this in the 1/4 mile -0-60 is alot slower than what you would think it should be. Ofcourse my $ would go to the ZR1.

[cherrybomb1493]

this guy is still hosting motorweek? holy crap.

[notluzn]

111K for that? I don't this so

[Jormungandr69]

But will it 4:19 ... NVM

[ApexIXMR]

OMG, all that money and you get fake carbon fiber in the engine bay and in the interior? LoL. Failsauce.

[Giablo1]

this cars cool, but redneck as shit. hahahahaha

[Rachymeow]

im a mustang fan, but i respect all sports cars, 750 hp is pretty impressive, but the front of the zl1 is just.. ugly so are those exhausts in the back, i think a stock camaro ss is better looking lol

[game2heart]

SLP's front fascia on this Camaro makes the car look sad and cheap :(

[1970gtosd]

If you dont appreciate american muscle and I am talkin about GM,DODGE and FORD Then your really not a Muscle car enthusiast!!!!!!!! The nay sayers probobly aaaaaall own rice rockets and dont appreciate true muscle. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

[mikeb1444]

The little thing at the top of the grill, blue chevy badge, and the rims are the highlights. The other body parts are cool along with the new grill. As for the power, well, It's the first camaro I've seen that looks good and makes cornering look effortless at the same time.

[killeraces37]

wtf is with the wheels looks like dodge.....

[greenbay51894]

if im going to spend 100k on any car it better be a 10 sec. car

[MooshiDash]

111k+...for a car that represents all that is wrong with the American economic system of rewarding failure..ahahaha..they best be trolling. I would never spend that much for what is still a Camaro from a shit company that had to have government bail it out. If you buy this car, you should feel bad.

[Jaystring09]

nice fart cans , wtf

[juanpz07]

That thing is freekin ugly!!!!!!!!!!

[MarioMario6298]

@juanpz07 who cares bitch

[Vampire285]

@MarioMario6298 everyone cares , the car in the video is fucking UGLY

[MarioMario6298]

@Vampire285 well why watch it you think its ugly as you?

[Vampire285]

@MarioMario6298 because I wanted to see if it can compete with the 2013 Mustang GT500 but sadly the Mustang is going to beat the shit out of this piece of trash haha lol

[MarioMario6298]

@Vampire285 it probalby could beat it i mean your talking about 750 horsepower...

[RichKilla86ers]

Ill rather get both ZL1 & Boss 302 with that price.

[19danflo]

i didn't think you could make a camaro any uglier

[DrDisasta]

I would rather buy a gtr and put a switzer package on it.

[DrDisasta]

My moms cooch is prettier than this car

[Punisher7121]

@DrNippleHair I'm average height, still had issues with visibility. Friend of mine is 6'4 and couldn't see for shit out of the new Camaro, but has no problems in my 2011 GT. I have little concern what someone calling themselves "DrNippleHair" thinks of my opinion. Its cool if you like the new Camaro, you probably like your chicks like you like your cars....Fat and ugly! But seriously, I could give a shit less what you think as my original statement was about liking 02 Camaro better than new

[Punisher7121]

@DrNippleHair Hahaha, you are the ONLY person I've ever heard say that. And I'm not exaggerating....Obviously we are all entitled to our opinion. But the new Camaros are ugly as shit, horrible visibility and shitty interior. The front end of the vehicle is ok, but the rear end is just awful. The Challenger is the best looking of the 3, Mustang a close 2nd. GTR looks good, but would only say it looks better than the new Camaro.

[stealthswimmer]

@Punisher7121

guess all the people who bought Camaros disagree :p

[jonv92]

3:08 check out that lambo haha

[normalais]

@flight1993transam it's fat and heavy but definitely not ugly

[kon854]

@flight1993transam dumb ass ur stupid then 

[TheWildman666]

thumbs up it is at 3;07

[IRONHIDE110]

DAMN HAHHAAHAHA LMFAO .. please guys pause at 2:53 sec .. the GM ZL1 camaro has an aggressive front .. THIS CAR ACTUALLY LOOKS SCARED LIKE SHIT .. I THINK IT HAS 750HP TO RUN AS FAST AS IT COULD FROM SOMETHING .. in short .. awesome power , ugly camaro

[Punisher7121]

@IRONHIDE110 Agree...The new Camaro is an ugly vehicle!  And I loved my 2002 Camaro Z28

[humbertoj3928]

GTR for life

[0501999999]

100,000$ ...fuck it i mighit buy the 2012 gtr and smok that shit

[MrThatguy122]

@0501999999 gtrs are for pussys

[0501999999]

@MrThatguy122

ok gtrs are for pussy... but that pussy can fuck them chevys all day long ..lol

[quocvbien]

i bet this one cant keep a 2012 mighty nissan GTR

[GoldenNada]

@quocvbien im pretty sure it can the 2012 z06 carbon(505hp) can keep up with the gtr(535) being only slower by a few tenths which is probably due to driver error, because the driver didnt have traction control on so it can keep up will i play 100k for a camaro? hell no but if it was lets say around 80ish k then yeah

[Moco159]

One word Ford...

[karelss1]

nice car but too much money

[adiosk8r91]

2:53 wtf is up with the front???

[dustinwat]

not worth the price, your going to spend about 35,000 to 45,000 just for the car, and then another 80,000 to have them upgrade it, I would rather get a 5.0 add a few things and be just as fast as this and save about 70,000 bucks, but thats just me.

[MisakiLeasim]

ugly add-ons, nice performance, ridiculous price.

[SHTINONCHEVY]

Just get a super snake

[ryanstanley737]

for the price why wouldnt you get a gtr? has a stock 0-60 time that is better than this.

[18surferz]

lol. Random Lambo drive-by

[ClassicCar94]

Such a nice sound.

[blaknite1]

$111,000 is a lot of money no matter how you slice it.

[bliglum]

@blaknite1 Especially for a car with a front fascia so cheap, it bends out of shape at speeds above 60mph.. LOL!! Look at that cheap shit!! Towards the end of the video it looked like it was about to fold up over the hood!.. Classic GM : )

[MaxwellReviresco]

@bliglum I'm not seeing it even on the stright when he is probably traveling around duble the speed u proclaimed!..."Classic" subcontious hatred impaired vision ;-)

[rlhmarines]

@bliglum The front facia was damaged while offloading the car from the car hauler during transport to the track, it was stated in the print material from SLP.

[bliglum]

@rlhmarines Oh.. ok.

[CHECO32VALVE]

this car is ugly

[OneGuitarGuy]

I like how the headlights look like a take on the 2010 mustang's headlights

[1970gtosd]

@OneGuitarGuy and the camar came out before 2010 mustang?

[SuperMonkeyballzz]

I like chevy but you can get a mustang 302 boss that runs 0-60 in 4.0 for 50K

[lrecollet]

@ 2:53, looks like the hood is gonna pop off its latch

[ggunit101]

@ jeffy and the zl1 is also supercharged all ss Camaros come with a 6.2 either l99 or ls3

[J3FFY28]

hey, if this camaro has the same engine thats in a cadillac cts-v coupe, i read else where that the cts-v coupe has the ls3 corvette engine...which means the camaro has a corvette engine. ...which, with options, can come to 100 grand. so its either a 2 seat, non productive car, or 4 seat, somewhat productive car....i choosee camaro zl1

[speednick88]

get a 302 boss and throw a supersnake motor in it and then take a kennebell 1.7

you ll get 1000hp and low 9's with the same amount of money you ll get the slp zl1 camaro. i am not a hater but i have to say that it will rape camaro's fat ass.i am saying that ford's 5.0 is as astonishin as this 7.0 lsr

[frostbytey]

@speednick88 just throw a good set of tires on the supersnake... Its only problem was traction that mustang doesn't grip to save it's life...

[EleazarLarios]

Anyone else notice the yellow Lambo at 1:53?

[contagious6969]

I thought the Camaro couldn't get any uglier. Damn that thing is hideous.

[Tungsten23]

@contagious6969, you certainly got uglier. Damn thing, you look HIDEOUS. I hope it's not contagious. hehehehe

[pwhs8]

@contagious6969 Are you blind ?

[contagious6969]

@pwhs8 No but after seeing it I wish I was.

[Stangy04]

@contagious6969 lol with our tax money i think chevy could of did a better job with this pos.

[SpeedDemons420]

Love the Lambo in the back flying by lol

[1loveridgec]

Is the bonnet open? 2:50

[MisterPeetBull]

you clould make your own better looking zl1 by modding an SS and save 65000 dollars

[0311SILVERADO]

@MisterPeetBull

i like you style

[santiagomel00]

I meant zr1

[alchoholicsementhful]

@santiagomel00 hmm......ZR1 was already in the high tens stock so i doubt this 'Maro is beating that with street tires........

[santiagomel00]

Faster than a zl1

[silviubahnovei]

thumbs up if you saw a GALLARDO in this video

[MrMelone89]

@silviubahnovei

i didn't see it

got a massive boner at 0:28 and was knockout accidentally

[vettelover2009]

@silviubahnovei Thumbs up if you saw the M-B SLS

[Drrck11]

What sucker is going to buy a car like in this economy?

[badassjeep1]

80 grand for a suspention/brakes/and an engine swap?too much

[gmracing15]

oh my GOD! 11 SEC CAMARO, WARRENTY ,ON STREET TIRES TOO! my dreams have come true! till I saw the price.......DAMN

[Plaayboarding]

@gmracing15 do it yourself costs 50 grand less :)

[DSMeclipsegst]

i would get the Chevy one for 50k and then spend another 50k and have damn near 1000hp -.-

[MrJamolcha]

fuck that, you want 750bhp go buy a freaking firebreather instead for almost half the price...that thing is still a camaro but a much more good looking one

[0TheLostArtist0]

@traze420

Actually it's built on the zeta platform, the performance shortened wheelbase platform ie: G8.

[BcPeTtYcAsH]

marshmallowrex is a retard, you cant even spell "ASS" right.

[CalisRemedy]

this car would look better if it was a pontiac

[ellisfreedman]

:38 the car looks so beautifully balanced. The lines are perfect.

[cardude1992]

2:49 the hood being lifted from the front because of the air getting underneath it. wtf what kind of engineering is that?

[benzbubblecat]

I'm not usually a camaro fan but I said "holy shit" more than once.

[wcoltd1988]

"All this can be yours on the Price is Right"

[traze420]

"What about the Camaro? It's a peice of shit! It's an XLR! It's built on a fucking Cadillac fucking god-damn platform. Go look at the Dodge Challenger! I'm at Rick's Cabaret"

[1stbestpokemaster]

there ya go chevy, chevy all the way!

[Fai9al92]

this car is a fucking great caaaar !!

3.2 !!! WooooooooooooooooooooW !!

[zadjaliz]

whats wrong with the front end of the car ( the area between the hood and the grill ) at 2:53

[TechMaven]

@zadjaliz I was wondering the same thing! Was the hood skin lifting at speed?

[taitai907]

@zadjaliz Auxiliary air intake.

[samiam20024]

beat a supersnake by .06 sec



[BL80488]

@samiam20024 It also costs more then the supersnake.

[arion45]

@halow4 yea

[crewdawg16]

Ridiculous price for a Camaro, and a ridiculous look to go with it.

[50RNDCLP]

Expensive but still extremely FAST !!! Now lets test the Shelby 800 hp Super Snake !!!!

[chevrolade1]

gt 500 killer

[arion45]

21k

[arion45]

Impressive, but the 111 k price tag make it not worth it. You could get a Nissan GTR 2012 for 90k beat it 0-60, better handling, and save 11 k.

[halow4]

@arion45 u mean save 21k

[coolgames14]

@arion45 then go buy one

[atlridder]

@arion45 man i know that price is crazy but i was up at a shop in nc and one was in to get some work done on it and i was talkin to the guy and hes been offered almost 150,000 for it and the offers keep coming cause of how rare they are

[cesarhidalgo23]

111k???! Are they crazy!!!

[DevPack]

Def a gt500 over this its looks better than this, its cheaper. Also for the price i think ill take a zr1.

[jsiszero]

$111000 for a Camaro... might as well buy a Corvette ZR-1

[ScLeCo]

@jsiszero

New you're looking at around 20K more than that for a ZR1, but I's take a Z06 Carbon Edition over that overweight heffer.

[xWestBayx]

@jsiszero lol but in a camaro u can ride with more then 4 people.

[ellisfreedman]

@jsiszero $110 for a ZR1? Might as well buy a used Ford GT, or a used 911 Turbo....or a new GTR or Viper ACR. Your right, but you have to realize not everyone cares extensively about the opportunity cost of buying a car, meaning not everyone worries about what they could have purchased instead. Otherwise, everyone would drive themselves crazy at the thought of purchasing the wrong car!

[pwnageness]

@jsiszero It's an SLP Camaro which is made by a customs shop. It's not the factory camaro at factory price... All custom cars are expensive.

[DSMeclipsegst]

@jsiszero why spend 110k for this one when you can get the ZL1 from Chevy for 50k =)

[640101vh]

@DSMeclipsegst I would just take the GT500(or Boss 302), 550hp(which is good enough for me) more options/features then this and half the price.

[simracr94]

@jsiszero I love corvettes don't get me wrong, but a stock zr-1 can compete with this amount of power.

[suppaman12]

@simracr94 Youre shitting me right? The ZR1 stoxk will go into the 10s... also, unlike this fat pig, the zr1 CAN get the power to the ground...

[Super03terminator]

@jsiszero sorry i wouldnt because the camaro zl1 is faster then the zr1

[ZRider3591]

Don't like the grill to fascia gap under acceleration.

Don't like the blue chevy badges. Should be black with red outline.

Don't like the exhaust outlets.

Don't like SLP stealing the ZL1 name.

And definitely don't like the price.

Pointless car considering GM is about to come out with their own ZL1 for a much lower price.

Dislike. And i normally like all GM cars.

[GOBbluthagain]

damn what a beast..

[critcole]

3:07 Lambo Spotted

[LBB988]

2:48

hood open

[lMlIlKlE8D]

i didn't know bumblebee was real.

[timforsyth89]

2 valves per cylinder

[timforsyth89]

a camaro that actually has more power than a 'vette? priceless

[kendrickevans301]

@timforsyth89 only vette that it cant beat is the c series vette

[kendrickevans301]

Respond to this video...  those are some big ass exhaust tips

[ScLeCo]

@timforsyth89

So what it weighs a lot more.

[leronv79]

Watch how far the hood separates from the body at 2:51 mark.

[radudeATL]

Surely I won't understand the appeal of such cars until I drive something like this. In the meanwhile, I'll enjoy tooling around in my Mazda3.

[Itchhhh]

427 cubic inch - 750hp and 3.2 sec is absolutely INSANE!! Simply impressive!!

[TheHm3]

@Itchhhh And these guys have some badass drivers too! Insideline (shitty drivers) got 4.2 0-60 in it. Insideline cannot drive, these guys on the other hand is like MotorTrend, drive like hell. It's amazing how they launch it so well!

[turbo200sx0007]

@Itchhhh lol cost 20 grand more than the gtr has 230 more hp and still slower lol

[offroad03able]

@turbo200sx0007 Last price I seen for a pos gtr that was only 90 hp more than the camaro was 127,000. I wouldn't waste my money, Imports are like tampons, every pussy has one!

[turbo200sx0007]

@offroad03able i love pussy :) u must be gay xD

[turbo200sx0007]

@offroad03able gtr is only 90 grand bro
