CAMARO6 - View Single Post - Conversation: What made you choose Camaro over the competition?

I've had 3 camaros in the past, 89 RS with a 350 swap, 95 z28 convertible, and a 99 SS. I bought my Miata on a whim a year ago and while its a blast to drive, as an only car its horribly impractical and very uncomfortable on long drive. TBH i am not a huge fan of the front of the 2019+ 6th gens, however, i still ordered one and i can't wait to get it. I ordered a 2SS 1LE and it was built earlier this week. After having the Miata i came to really appreciate a good handling car so i opted for the 1LE. I test drove a mustang but the Getrag gearbox was trash and to upgrade to a Tremec meant getting up to the Mach 1 which is significantly more expensive than even a fully loaded 2ss 1le. I also get the employee discount (thanks gramps) which saved me a ton of money on my car.
