I've been in the same shoes as. I bought what may have been the first Camaro 6 in Houston December 4, 2015. A few days later I started to feel let down and that I should've just waited as it was too quiet and missing some power. Well I went to Miami a few days and had been in Puerto Rico for a week and missed my maro so i rented one, the company didn't have any v6s and ended up upgrading me to an SS. Nice car, nice drive but it killed my buyers remorse. After 3 days in the SS, I no longer felt like I was missing out, boy do I love the sound but for the price and gas I burned, I'm back to happy with my v6. |

You could trade it in for the same color SS ... They would probably never know the difference!

No buyer's regret. I chose to go with a high end RS with all the bells and whistle when I could have bought a 1SS but I have no regrets.

I surely understand the dilemma, but as someone else has already mentioned, the performance potential of this car will certainly put you in jail. And...yes, the V8 will get you to 60 in right at 4 seconds...lol, but in my town 60 is 5 mph over the city speed limit or more. I was stopped not long ago for doing 55 in a 40 mph zone. I thought it was impossible until I reviewed my drive using my dash cam...the cop was right. He gave me a verbal warning to watch my speed "in that fast car", and I am doing just that. What a shame to waste that enjoyment...shoulda got a V6...lol.

I got factory nav and sunroof that I wish I had scrapped to save around $20-$30/mo. I wans't sure how reliable Apple Carplay would be (it's great) and the sunroof is just so rarely going to get used.
MRC I still go back and forth on. It's truly a cool feature but if the stock suspension was tuned between sport/touring, I think I would have been fine. But the car is just phenomenal. Better to regret having a few too many features than always wondering what could've been. |

I haven't purchased a car in years. I can say this. I've never felt any buyers remorse because I spent a lot of time thinking about it beforehand. I had the opportunity over a year ago to pick up a 2015 ZL1. I passed on it in hopes of the next gen car. It is an awesome ride. For me personally I'd have been disappointed since I like the new car even more. Notice I didn't say it's better. I said I like it more. The important thing is liking what you have. Some people go through life dreaming about what they want instead of enjoying what they already have. Be thankful for what you have been given in life.

In a way, I get what the OP is saying. I pick my car up tonight. It was a factory order of a '16 that turned into a '17.
When I re-ordered the '17 car, I had the chance to add MRC, and I didn't. In hindsight, I wish I did.....Oh well....
