I read alot and hear alot of people refer to their cars as LS1s instead of trans ams or Camaros. Personally I think its kind of funny because some people may have no idea wtf an LS1 is haha. I'm just curious is anyone else does this, because I've done it a few times myself. Don't hear it much with Vette' owners, GTOs, etc.

woswill

Sometimes i refer to trans am/camaros as LS1

Ill be like "Dude.. an LS1 will smoke almost any car out there"

If I'm talking about it, I just say "my LS1 car" instead of my "trans am" or my "black car" because it gets alittle confusing with more than one.

true i didn't think about that. I did have 2 camaros at one time before and I had to refer to them as ls1 and 305 but that was only to people i knew would know what i was talking about lol.

Fbody, or in the presence of other Fbodies, an Ls1 Camaro, or in the presence of other Ls1 Camaro's, an SS, or in the presence of other Ls1 Camaro SS's, the 35th LE, and in the presence of other Ls1 Camaro SS 35th LE's, I'll just point at mine and say that one...

markzeronine

all my friends call it "The LS1" lol... Or "The Z"

It's never really a "Camaro" to any of them for some reason, but I don't mind I'm used to calling it the "Z" or "LS1" now lol

I don't refer to the car as an LS-1, but I understand why some people would. After all, having one of the greatest V8 engines of all creation installed in your personal car is one helluva bragging right. Other car brand followers know LS-1 cars for their motors, also. For example a ricer will ask me what I drive and then yawn, but when I tell them what engine it has I get an "OOOoooooohhh..."

ya I guess thats pretty understandable as these engines are pretty great compared to the TPI and LG4 engines that once sat in these engine bays, right?

One thing that came to mind was if someone asks you what kind of car you have and you tell them "ls1", they wouldn't know if you got a 4th gen or a C5 lol.

I dont refer to it as an LS1. It just sounds weird, like when someone refers to themselves in the third person. Ive never new there was a 2004 Pontiac LS1, or a 2002 Chevy LS1 SS. Only time would be if your refering to the engine itself.

People always ask me "Man hat does that thing hve in it?" Then I say a LS1, they blink blankedly, then I say a 346, v-8.. waiting for a light to come on in their domes then say 5.7L.. they go oh, their so and so has a 6.0 in their truck. Chuckles.

So I dunno.. I usually refer to it as my baby or Rayven
