I don't know. The only Camaro I have ever driven is mine. It's a 2012 2SS RS. It has a sun roof but I don't think that takes away from the head room. I am 6' 2".

Since it's all opinions, figured I'd give mine on the suggestions given so far... My responses are in red in the quotes

1994 was 19 yrs ago man. I'm not comparing those clunkers to today's modern cars. Cars can be lower now and still maintain a decent ride and improve overall performance with a lower COG. no one likes a 3-4" wheel gap. As far as customizing the background and or start up screen..... Why NOT? Personalize it To say something about you or your car. It's another way to modify and make your own. It's silly you said......lol really? Why? You kidding me?

2) temp gauge - I agree, but it's not needed. Like most gauges, if they aren't in the "normal" range, something is wrong, regardless of whether you get a useable reading. All of the other gauges are numbered, then you get C & H. Should be consistent...unless they are trying to match the E & F.
7) the HUD already has it's own brightness control. I don't see your point here. 13) structure isn't the issue. riding differently on different roads is a tire issue. 14) HID's - as noted above, additional cost that many people don't want. 15) bluetooth - road noise doesn't affect bluetooth. Bluetooth is a data connection, outside noise, including road noise has no effect. And yes, the center console needs some work. The cup holders could be moved. The safety brake cold be lowered. The Vette is a great example. Funny how they can get it right in one car, and totally miss the mark with another car. |

The reason why I said why to the personalized startup screen is that it's just one more complexity that 99% of the people buying the cars wouldn't use or appreciate. And it's added cost, even if it's just a software update, there's more to it than just flicking a switch and allowing it to happen. Now you're talking about having a predefined folder which stores the startup and shutdown screens, access controls around those folders so it doesn't open the infotainment system up to an attack, excessive testing to make sure a user-defined startup or shutdown screen doesn't cause the system to crash, etc. As an example, I heard through an IT buddy that he was testing an infotainment system that let you put a name into some sort of input. If you used too many characters not only did it crash the infotainment system but it permently corrupted the hardware to the point that the system was bricked.

I use Bluetooth with top down going 70mph without any issues. Maybe there's something wrong with yours.

I'm pretty sure if I parsed the files I could make something on my own to set a custom background screen. I have a '12 so I can't experiment... |

The content in what I said the 250-300lbs was originally used was that it was not a lot TO LOSE when the car weighs this much. I said 250-300lbs reduction was attainable and someone said that was a "sh*t ton" of weight. I disagreed
