Our car’s LS3 6.2-liter V8 generates 426-horsepower and 420 lb-ft. We’ll blame the cold track temperatures, sure, but don’t forget about that substantial power flow coming from the front end. Also helping to lower lap times, as well as keep powertrain components happy, is steeper gearing for both the rear end and Tremec 6-speed manual, a transmission cooler, and a high capacity fuel pump.īut even with all of the updates and the Camaro’s all-independent suspension, we still had trouble getting the rear tires to properly hookup at launch. To be more specific, 1LE adds larger stabilizer bars, a strut tower brace, monotube rear dampers, 20-inch wheels with Goodyear Eagle Supercar Gs, and other suspension bits from the Camaro ZL1. But the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE is a preemptive strike aimed to keep the Bowtie brigade in the number 1 sales spot.Īctually, all Camaros receive updates for 2014 and as before, the 1LE package adds some extra track-worthy spice for those that value handling above all else. Whether the 2015 Ford Mustang will launch the blue oval back to the top of the pony car segment remains to be seen. Let’s see if the 2014 Camaro’s updates will be enough to stave off the ‘Stang! And unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, you know that there is an all-new Mustang just around the corner. Well, 4 years have passed, and the Camaro was due for some updates. The new gen Camaro which debuted for 2010 has certainly been an unqualified success, quickly topping the Ford Mustang in sales, and bringing about a whole new round of pony car wars.
