Drove a 2001 Porsche 911 Cab for some years but always loved muscle cars. Had a Mustang GT converible years ago. In 2013 I had a chance to buy another 911, but wanted something I could work on easily at home and relatively cheaper to maintain. I test drove the 2012 2SS camaro in the past but the handling was not that great. Then came the 1LE in 2013 and it was perfect for road course days. This will probably be my last sports car buy. The 5 gen while big, look great and does what I want it to do with the 1LE option. I love the new 2017 size, performance, and suspension even better. But can't spend that kind of money anymore. Plus with all of the new electronics and special suspension bits I think it will more expensive and difficult to maintain when issues do arise over time. No, I will will stick with the 5 Gen, to me its classic and the generation that brought the Camaro back from the dead.
