Agreed. The only opinion of your car that matters is yours.

That's kind of funny.. So, what did the review say overall? Positives? Any? Negatives?
I drove an ATS with the 2.0 and I thought that was pretty good.. |

Yeah who cares. I drove a ATS with the 2.0 and was ready to buy one before I got my 2SS and it was a quick car and handled great. Could've sounded better but it's a luxury car. I'm sure the Camaro with the 2.0 is better. Motor Trend seems to think so. All it needs is a set a summer tires. it's crazy chevy doesn't offer them as an option.

The issue is they have a great V6 and awesome V8 to compare it to. The article was more focused on a comparison of the options within the Camaro family NOT a comparison against other cars. The 2.0T can be a 'good' option, but when compared to the two other options, it fell short for them.
They did not mention anything about the tuning options which I believe is one of the big reasons to buy it. It was in the back of the magazine, and I don't take it as a slam on the car - just their opinion of the three current engine options - and their least favorite was the 2.0T. Big deal...

If I was going to buy a turbo 4 I would buy a WRX. I had a 2015 WRX before my 1LE and it was a great car. It had the new boxer FA 2.0, was lighter than the Camaro and had better visibility, more interior and trunk room, all wheel drive and 4 doors.

If you are looking for a car with good visibility, 4 doors, awd and a boxer engine you shouldn't look at a camaro as it has none of those.

I think they're right. Hell, I wouldn't tell anyone I was even considering a V6 Camaro let alone a 4 cylinder...it's worse than a rental car LOL
