Thanks that was a Great article! It Does sound like the Camaro team really hit the performance mark on the 6th gen. I can't wait to see how the SS and 4turbo perform once GM allows them to go out for full reviews.

Nice review Joe, as always! I was wondering when you'd get around to it! Always look forward to your professional insight! Thinking about trading the 1LE in for a 6th gen SS yet?

If the V6 is that good then one can only guess what the SS will be like.....
Be afraid Mustang... be VERY afraid...

Great write up.

Good stuff Joe.. from my observations at the ********* event everything about this car is an improvement and no areas were left uncovered.

The V6 is without a doubt much improved. Tried my best to find something that I didn't like and the only thing I could come up with is the sharks fin is a little bigger, but then it probably goes better with the deeper reverse mowhawk which I really liked.

It was a fun weekend for sure..

Hi Joe, nicely written and very articulate. I am still jealous though. I did not know you traded the ZL1 for a 1LE. Your observations between your daily driver and the new sixth gen. are extremely insightful. Since it will be a while before I get a chance to sit in a sixth gen. what are your observations of the new seats? How do they compare to standard fifth gen. seat and the optional Recaros? Again nicely written and we hope to see you soon.
