I’ve Put right at 12,000 miles on mine since I got her in January. She’s not napping through the winter though. If there’s no snow on the road, she’ll be screaming her song! Lol.

I had no idea storing for the winter was a thing. Stupid SoCal resident I guess. Does everyone put them away for the winter? Are Camaros difficult to drive in snow/ice where other cars do better?

Yup, lots of us do. I put mine away because I have a second vehicle that’s a SUV, otherwise I’d probably drive mine year round. Since I haven’t really driven mine in deep snow I can’t really vouch for the handling but my previous 4th Gens weren’t too bad, except when it got deep enough to high center, especially in ruts. I noticed that I see a helluva lot more Challenger/Chargers on the road during the winter, even in the worst of weather.

It’s actually the salt we hate more than the snow. Salt really does a job on cars, even with the advances in corrosion protection. During the winter if we have spells of no snow and the roads are washed clean, I’ll pull mine out.
