Maybe it's just me...

Okay maybe it's just me and I'm not looking hard enough but can anyone see an e brake on any of the interior pictures in the 6gen. Not that big of deal but I'm just curious...

It's an electronic e-brake. No handle.

Yep. I'd say combined with your screen name, you are correct. It's just you.

This. It's just a little button for the parking brake. No more e-brake turns.

I am really glad they went with the e brake. Cleans up the interior nicely.

yea, it looks good. never used an electronic ebrake though. I wonder what kind of safeties it'll have incorporated with it. like not letting you drive if its on or weird things like that.

I just hope there's a manual override somehow. Otherwise how are you supposed to move the car if the battery dies?

I think on new BMW's they have a emergency brake release pin inside the trunk that you pull up on using a special provided tool

A little different, but my automatic Legacy has an electronic parking brake. If I put it in drive and step on the gas, the parking brake disengages.. Most of the time.. Like 90+ percent of the time. Lol. I'll chalk up the not working percentage to Subaru.

Not a big deal to me but I guess you can rule out any 6th gen Camaro's at drifting events LOL.

OP, furthest back button with the (P) icon on the center console.

I'm not sure why you need an Ebrake for drifting if you have power.

every single drift car in professional drifting has a hydraulic hand brake to initiate the slide. and most have much higher power levels than the Camaro will.







all three of those are high HP cars.
