Visibility stopped being a worry on day two of driving it, once I had all my mirrors figured out. Considering the first time I ever drove a 6th gen, it was from Detroit to Atlanta (actually the first start, straight from Joe's dealership to the interstate headed south) I got used to it quicker than most. What is funny, is that if my drive my wife's civic somewhere, it's like sitting in a movie theater with that huge screen in front of me. She is afraid to drive my car, and never has done.
Having had a mess of Camaros and Corvettes in the past, I can say that this has been hands down my favorite daily driver yet. I also fully understand why most people don't want one. The area I live in is covered up with pickups, all the makes of CUV type cars, and a ridiculous amount of Teslas. Most people in my area can afford cars they like, and those are the types of cars they appear to like. It is what it is.
When I say best daily driver, I'm going with the whole experience. For me, it's never really a matter of having to drive, but getting to. I actually enjoy the driving, and one of the side benefits is that I get where I need to be. Most of the time, I don't take the shortest path, or the fastest, but I would rather take the more enjoyable routes. The right car keeps it that way.

How would you compare the Camaro to the Corvette daily driving?
I have only sat in a C8, not driven one. did have a C4 Corvette for a while and it was ok, remember it was super low to get in and out of, had a big foot well hump where the door was and avoiding driveway dips and such to not hit front splitter and bumper. had to back into some driveways lol.
the C8 i sat in was also super low to sit in, took some effort to get back out of lol.
was pricing C8's on chevy website yesterday and a 2LT is around 80K now without hardly any options. getting kinda pricey. they did offer a yellow color.
have to almost go with 2LT to get the heated cooled seats, heated steering wheel, HUD, more speakers, etc.
i am holding out hope Chevy wll bring the camaro back someday.
