Do any of you driving the 2016 2SS experience wheel hop when going over bumps in the road. I experience some tail wagging on bumps even when not accelerating.

The biggest gripe is the lack of options.

I want a BIG BLOCK or more engine options and T Tops

T Tops would be awesome. I would like a 3.6 twin turbo from the Cadillac

Don't like the way rocks hit behind the door right in front of the rear tire. Other than that I love this car.

T-tops will never come back.

I know that I am responding to an old post, but this makes way too much sense.

My 1SS has a horrible sound system. Ford's base model sound system blows this away by miles. Should be a faster way to change exhaust sound. Like a simple knob, and not multiple touch screens to get to it.

Granted it's just a quick photoshop and could use some working, specifically the front fender/hood isn't to my liking. Which I think is what makes the roof line look bigger than intended. A hood like the ZL1 or similar might help. Never was a fan of flat hoods.

Edit:
Super quick update I made to it to help with the fender/hood issues I didn't like.

Here's a gif to show the differences. Bloated chop top to more slender proportions.

Great work... I hear Ford could use some help on the Mustang, You might could get a job there

Sorry Just couldn't resist... And the current design Camaro look much better then your update.. JMHO

So for the first 500 miles it was unreal fun. I special ordered it . It has the A8 and it's a 2SS. since it hit 500 miles it has a bad vibration in rearend . Now I have 19k on it. Now I'm having serious vibration issues in the tranny .I I have msged GM about this through a similar thread and they told him to private msg them to get things resolved . I have done this twice now and they have not contacted me once . I've brought it to two dealers in my area and have had it in approximately 7 times and they tell me.i have a new car and just drive it. I also was told on one visit that it was my aftermarket exhaust making the vibration. Well I don't have aftermarket exhaust . It's the same car the factory dropped off . I was standing right there when they took it off the truck . I have no idea what else to do . I was going to special build a 2018 but not sure now due to not having the issues resolved by two different dealers and no word from GM directly. 😈, So freaking upset about it so far

Only one gripe which is the triangular piece at the bottom of the A-pillar by the mirror. If not for that the corner visibility would be no issue. And yes not crazy about the snake nostril hood vents. Would look with 2 scoops or 2 reversed hood sccops.

The heat extractors (hood vents) don't sit flush with the hood. They stick up from the hood. You'd think that if Chevy went through the hassle to stamp insets for them, that they could have made them deep enough for the things to sit flush.

1. Gold bow ties.
2. RS and SS badge location.
3. The cheap thin, soft paint.
4. Ventilation of the seats.
5. Windshield vents.
6. The A8 reliability is well getting to be on my list.

The sun visors on convertibles are a cruel joke.
