View Full Version : I know it's not a LT1, but the trim code is 1LT? Close enough, right?

Traded in my 2012 Camaro 1LS (base, base model) for a 2014 Camaro 1LT ("premium v6 model").

The color is Red Rock Metallic and these pictures do it no justice - it has a lot of orange metalflake in it, so it can go from being a dark red maroon to an orangey color.

I had the dealer install an SS exhaust for me before I picked it up, so it has a nicer exhaust note. The 5th gens come with true duals, and the v6 and v8 exhausts are interchangeable, so a common upgrade is to just put the SS exhaust on it.

Combined with the cold air intake installed (pics below), this will really make the exhaust note even better. Can't wait to drive it to work tomorrow and really hear how it sounds!!! I'll have to get some clips driving and idling. I was talking to my mom on my phone via bluetooth and she goes "WOW is that YOUR CAR's exhaust I hear?!" she was really impressed over the phone hahaha.

These pics do the car's color no justice because it was already overcast. The color really pops in the sun!

It's one of the best colors they've ever made! Here's a sample pic of a 1LE in Red Rock out in the sun:

People tend to dismiss the V-6 Camaro until they realize they are as fast as an LT1 Z-28 lol. Most run low 9's in the 1/8th and low 14's in the 1/4.

I really want to buy my wife one.

Love the color and I know you'll get down and dirty on the audio/interface.
