I have shopped around a bit for a 2SS Camaro and think this one maybe the way to go... I am curious of your thoughts.

2016 Camaro 2SS Black MSRP $51,765

Installed Options

Power sunroof $900.00
8-speed automatic transmission $1,495.00
Dual-mode performance exhaust $895.00
Gold Illuminated Front Bowtie Emblem $350.00
Front Fascia Extension $645.00
Front license plate bracket $15.00

20" 5-Spoke, Gloss Black Wheels with Red Outline Stripe1 $1,995.00

I have an out the door price of $44k on the dot. Car is brand new test drive it today left 59 miles on the dash afterwards.

What are your thoughts

I may finalize the deal this weekend.

Man that's a good deal in my eyes with those options....

Does it have magnetic ride control? I would rather have that then 6 piston brakes. That seems pricey to me unless you plan on racing your car but even still the 4 piston brakes work great with ceramic brake pads but I dont race my car either.

I think you could do better IMO. Especially since that's a 2016 and you will basically be buying a 2 year old car at this point.

Also are you planning on tracking the car? I don't see a purpose of the 6 piston upgrade if you are only daily driving it.

If you do buy that car make sure you get the stock wheels and stock brakes as well.

So it was dealer ordered and customized the way it is currently. I doubt they will surrender the stock setup. The only thing I desired while I was looking was the MRC. But wanted to know at this price wether I should overlook the MRC due to the deal. Otherwise I can get a 2017 with MRC for $42,400 plus fees!

I agree..you can do better..Just bought a brand new 16 2ss as well MSRP was $44500 and got it for 34200...I would try 40-41k if you can

I would suggest getting the 2017...but first, I'm curious if it has all the same sorts of options as the 2016 you posted.

A "deal" is dependent on many things. Keep in mind that while something is discounted, you can still be spending money on something unnecessary. MRC will make a bigger difference in your experience than the brakes. Besides, you can always add the brakes later...you cannot add MRC.

If you can get it for 40-42k I'd do it. $44k is a little high considering what the 16's were selling for a couple months ago.

[TonyStark6]

Sheesh! You guys are making me have second thoughts! I thought nearly $8800 off was good. 43k was the price Fees and taxes added another $1k they originally came to me at 46 and I asked for $43k

It is good.....but it's still more dollars than the 2017 you mentioned, and if you factor in a year's depreciation (2016 v 2017), plus the fact you mentioned that you wanted Magnetic Ride and the '16 didn't have it....is it really a good deal?

Ultimately, the choice is yours.

[TonyStark6]

Well I guess I will have to go back to the drawing board. Maybe I'll get a 1LE I test drive a silver one yesterday felt good although I didn't feel a difference between the magnetic ride and the non-MRC. 1LE at a local dealer here is $40,930 plus tax and fee

MR is going to be most noticeable when a) you go over a rough road...and b) you're on the track.

Bingo!!! I only regret not having it when im on rough bumping roads going over railroad tracks or pot holes. So i opted on the vert and said i dont need MRC..Im not tracking the car. Sometimes I wish i got it but i love having the convertible in Socal....Its all up to what u willing to pay for and that gold glowing bowtie, You can get cheaper else where too. I would ask them to upgrade the sway bars at least or something if u going to buy the ss. Look just get u that 17 1LE ...You wont look back i can almost guarantee it. That car is nice in black.

$43K is 17% off MSRP.

For comparison, I bought a 2016 vert for 19% off sticker in September, which was 5 months ago.

Not a deal in my book. I would not budge for anything over $40K before taxes / fees.
