No need to apologize, I am always more than happy to answer questions. Bose system is pretty legit. I am not an audiophile by any means BUT I can tell you that the system is great, even at max volume the sound is crisp and clear. I did need new ear drums after hitting max volume though lol.

You can order one from Chevy Performance catalog, I'm sure...

LOL! I have no idea what the 1SS stereo looks like, as in... Where all the speakers are and what not. I can bet that 2SS has extra speakers thus the question is, is there a location already made for them in the 1ss without having the speakers?

First thing you do when you setup your onstar is that they setup your wifi as well. So far I have used it from Dallas to Wichita and of course in wichita still am using it. I always had a full bar but I have no idea how the upload/download speeds are as I am always driving when I am in the car lol. I can do a speed test later on by just turning on the car and sitting in it though.

I have NOT paid for it, it is a complimentary of OnStar for 3 or 6 months and once that is up, I won't be paying for it... You CAN however pay PER day if you wanted to. Like you are going in the middle of no where or rather you cell phone reception is terribad, you can just hit the blue button to call onstar and they can sell you the wifi usage per day or the weekend. They only charge 5 bucks per day so it actually isn't a bad deal at all. 15 bucks for 3 day weekend and have full wifi service.

As a side note, I stalled the car for the first time today haha. I really wasn't paying attention to the clutch and bam, stalled. Stalling to restart and going is damn fast though, took me like an extra 3 seconds to get going after the stop. Fail. haha.

I have a question regarding a spare tire.

1) is there a spot for one in the trunk for a donut tire? (Picture might help)

2) given the Camaro has larger tires and a small trunk do you think a full size tire will fit through the opening?

I will be traveling a lot for work and don't like the idea of getting stuck somewhere.

Do you find the seats comfortable? I drive up to 16 hours and was wondering.

Thanks

Haha oh man where were you when you stalled? & thank you for telling me about the wifi man. I won't really be downloading nothing big... Besides maybe like an app from the App Store but that's it. The reason I wanna have it in my car at all times is because I go everywhere with my little sisters, so I know they would love to get on their tablet while we take long drives. I hope it's not that expensive after my free months are up

1) I will take a look under the liner in the trunk for a donut space. Vehicle does NOT have it. And front being 245 and rear being 275s I think it'll be a little dicey.

2) You are in luck, I do have a set of snow tires sitting in the garage and can check if they fit. It just might but I will confirm tomorrow.

3) Seats are great but for a 16 hour drive... Without too many stops and what not... You just might want to grab a lazy boy and have that put in the car lol. But in all seriousness, they are really comfortable. I did a 5 and a half hour road trip day 2 of ownership and I was very comfortable.

I just pulled off the highway off ramp trying to turn left to head over to my house. Thankfully no cars were around to see my fail LOL! Downloading apps and what not won't be an issue. You probably would have an issue if you tried to torrent an entire movie though lol. Oh, I did try netflix via my phone. It streamed just fine!!!

Thank you and how many does the 2SS have? LOL. I have no clue, I guess I could just go count but like I mentioned before... I am not an audiophile... I would still be okay just listening to music in the car via my phones speaker lol. LT1 is my real music and it'll be better in a couple months when I can grab an xpipe to get rid of 2 unmonitored cats. Then it'll be perfect!

Sure thing, I have a buddy who lives in Overland Park so I just may end up doing a trip there. However, with winter coming up and holiday season and all... I probably will be driving the beater that I just bought. A 2013 Malibu lol.

You can ONLY use netflix while parked but I am damn sure there will be a "hack" for it so you can watch it during moving soon enough. That is watching netflix through the infotainment system though, you can just stream it via a tablet and you are good to go.

I can't say I love the attention I am getting on the road lol. I actually had a couple mustang gt dudes give me a thumbs up just yesterday and gen 5 camaro owners not even pay attention. Go figure. Hell... Even a hellcat challenger guy gave me a thumbs up. While I would not buy a hellcat, I sure can respect and love the sound. The name is damn deserving!

I actually was only able to find 8 speakers, just checked lol. No idea where the 9th one is. Is there even a 9th one?

1 speaker each on doors = 2
1 speaker each on front dashboard (driver and passenger side) = 2
1 speaker each on the back (driver and passenger side ) = 2
1 speaker each on the back deck (driver and passenger side) = 2

So that is 8. No idea where the 9th one is if it even exists besides my own little head.
