2015 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 Review

    Some of you reading this might have different opinions about the American car industry. Some of you might say that they aren't really American, and they're built in Mexico, while others might say that the American car industry has really been improving in the last 15 years. But there is one thing you can all agree on; and it's that nobody does muscle cars better than Detroit. That might seem stupid, because most muscle cars come from the U.S., but that's not entirely true. There are several muscle cars from Europe and even Australia, such as the HSV (Holden's special vehicle division) GEN-F Clubsport R8 (which shares the engine from the ZL1 and Corvette), the Jaguar F-Type V8 S (a little more refined, but still great at burnouts), and the Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG (also, a little more race-car than drag-race car, but still worth looking at if you're in the market). But, inevitably, the best come from here, and one of the best has been made by Chevy for several decades. Everyone knows the Camaro, but not everyone knows about some of the more performance-oriented versions, such as the Z/28 and the ZL1. The ZL1 is more powerful, faster 0-60, and is cheaper, so why buy the Z/28? But, with a supercharged 6.2 liter LSA V8 engine cranking out 580 hp and 556 pound-feet of torque, it does 0-60 in 3.9 seconds. Even if similar cars like the Ford Shelby GT500 and the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat are faster and are more powerful, the ZL1 is still one of the best muscle cars in the industry.

Definitely looks like a muscle car, and does a great job of it
