This one I promise is a keeper.
What I got is a 2017 Chevy Camaro SS 1LE in Hyper Blue Metallic with the optional Performance Data Recorder. Also now with more "man pedal".
So far the car has 11 miles. Its a tight fit too. Those suede recaros did were not designed with wide people in mind. Sounds like another great reason (among many), to lose some weight. Fat aside, Im 6" and the leg room is fine. Visibility is limited, but it gives you that private feeling. 18% tints should make that even more-so.
The car has free oil changes and car washes for life. And luckily the dealer is local to me. So I will be taking advantage of that no problem. They dry it too believe it or not.
Notable options are dual mode exhaust and FE4 Mag-ride suspension. The 1LE package also has many other great track goodies and coolers, plus it comes with a 285 wide front and 305 wide rear GY Eagle F1 tires. Should be fun in the summer.
I'd love to do several types of events. Drag, half mile, road course and autoX. And this car should do nicely for all. Now I need a new helmet. The pics are going to be limited for now until the weather gets better. Nothing worse then getting a new car, and having to drive it home in the pouring rain. Especially since I would never drive it in that type of weather normally.
As for driving habits with it? This car will not and should not be a DD. In the few miles home, I can already tell its a very sharp handling car. The big tires up front run with cracks and low spots in the road very badly. There are some pretty shit roads I have to commute on, and even the charger didnt like it. Took me only a minute to get my clutch launches down pat. I've been driving stick cars since 1996, so this is nothing new. Feels just like my last corvette with the clutch.
Over all this was the right purchase - finally. Real talk, I did not break even on the Charger. But again, this purchase made sense to me and I still ended up out the door on the new car well below sticker. On the challenger, I did not lose at all. I have paperwork to prove that. Although I'd never publicly post something like that. That would be silly, and really its nobody's business.
