I saved 5k by getting the 1SS so I have no regrets!! I still have NPP, magnetic ride control, sunroof and the black hash mark/bowtie option. The 1SS is loaded just not loaded as much! I am very happy with my car.

I would have regretted it from day one if I bought a 1ss..
the HUD/side monitor system/auto dimming mirrors/cooled seats (as useless as they might be) are phenomenal features.. Then the stereo and dual AC is a great thing to have. I would personally save up if this is your D.D.. if this is nothing more than a weekend car, sure.. I know my steering wheel is low enough where I rely solely on the HUD for info. |

Count me as 2SS. I've gotten to the point where I like the goodies and am willing to pay for it. Nothing wrong with going into 1SS though. In fact, if my only two choices were a loaded 2LT V6, or the 1SS, I might, might I say, choose the 2LT.

LOL I guess performance isn't the number one on this list for some. I respect that different strokes for different folks. For me, if I wanted all the comfy goodies then I would have bought a Cadillac or Lexus sedan. The SS in my eye's is a raw V8, powerful machine that can handle. All the goodies is just a bonus and that bonus should never over exceed the performance aspect of that. |

Ultimately you are the one who has to make the decision. We went with the 2SS and have no regrets. Love the dual climate control, memory seats, heated/cooled seats, and side warning detection. No way would I choose a 2LT/RS over a 1SS, but that is just my opinion. Did that the first time with a 2014 2LT/RS.

Personally I've decided when I order a Camaro next year that it'll be a 1SS (also doing either a $15-20K down payment). I don't need the goodies, I just want an LT1 w/NPP exhaust and 6spd. Call me simple but that's really all I care about.
It's my thought that leather seats can look rough over time plus are more general upkeep. A lighting kit can be ordered as an option but again, for me it's not that I don't like it, I just don't know if it's worth it. The other stuff is okay but I can't see dropping $5k for a 2SS since come resale time down the road I doubt you'll get that money back. Now, I might drop that extra $5K on a 1LE version but not for a 2SS, it's either going to be a 1SS or a 1LE for me. |

Another factor is discounting. Add this to the equation. If you could get 3k off a 1SS or 5k off a 2SS, do you still go 1SS, knowing for only a couple grand more you get the leather and all the other goodies? |

2ss with NPP... Best option IMO. I didn't buy the car thinking about who I sell it... I bought the car for everyday driving comfort. If in the end I'm out 5k, I'll live...
I bought a Camaro in the first place, not the most practical car in the world |

Might as well wait and take a look at the 1LE for 2017....If you want to spend more than a 1SS, but the 2SS doesn't do it for you, at least wait for 1LE pricing, then decide....Good luck.
