Nice find!

If you have a signed contract with the other dealer for a 2023 and it specifies the color, they have to refund you in full because there is absolutely no way to fill that order.

Very Nice! Sorry you weren't able to get Rapid Blue, but the 1LE looks nice in Red Hot too!

I honestly think I'd have been fine if I'd gone with the 1SS, without the video mirror and blind-spot sensor. There are many cars out there with much worse visibility, and without the driver aids that come on the 2SS.

That's okay, you can never go wrong with a red Camaro.

That's what I would think too. The terms of the order cannot be fulfilled; therefore, I can declare the agreement void on my end, entitling me to a full refund.

I've heard the Voodoo engine before, but on a GT500, not a GT350. Probably sounds better NA.

Do you mind expanding on why you're missing the interior of the Mustang? Ergonomics in what way? I know the center console is not exactly practical and of course the rear seat legroom/headroom compromised, but what, if anything, else? The Mustang GT interior isn't exactly out of a BMW or Mercedes-Benz either, many consider it worse than the Camaro...
This car is definitely more of a true sports car than the Mustang. I felt that the moment I first let off the clutch leaving the dealer.


The Mustang is simply more comfortable, and everything you need is laid out at your fingertips. The interior simply has more of a premium feel. The Camaro's center console is an absolute horror show, and that downward-angled screen is going to take some getting used to. The driver's seat doesn't recline quite as far as I'd like, but I realized at the end of my 2-hour drive home from the dealer that that's not too big a deal.



But I knew I'd be making a few concessions going in, and so far I can say that I have absolutely no regrets about my purchase. That car has been absolutely fantastic so far.

It's hitting the back seat. Try pulling it just a touch forward and you should get more recline out of it. And if you pitch the front portion upward a touch, it will still give you the comfort you are looking for with your legs.

The Voodoo engine is only in the gt350. The gt500 uses an engine based on the Coyote (I think).



I think flat plane v8s are more reliable as N/A, once you add boost (especially a s/c) it's harder to keep it reliable.
