Is there any significant differences between 2016 to 2022 years for SS trim?

Or are they basically all the same?

Better infotainment, updated looks, camera rearview mirror.
Separated into 16-18, 20-22. We don't talk about '19.

Automatic transmission change is probably the biggest change. From A8 to A10, supposedly a night and day improvement.

OP, you'll be better off researching this on wikipedia, GM press releases and articles describing the original 2016 specs and the changes from 2017 to 2022. Here you'll get a lot of biased personal opinions and hearsay from non-owners of specific options/trims in addition to the facts, and they'll be hard to tell apart.

I went and read a lot of differences before posting this thread. I came here specifically *for* the biased personal opinions out of curiosity of peoples thoughts and the fun to share opinions. Thank you, though

As I remember the A10 auto trans came out in 2018. I have owned a 17, 18, now a 2020. Hard to tell them apart on the inside. Different front fascia , and tail light groups here and there.

Sorry if I sounded terse or dismissive, I didn't mean to be unhelpful (also here's an earlier thread discussing the differences: https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=588476). Let's hope owners of multiple model years will come in here and describe their experience with their upgrades.

An EXTREMELY questionable front-end "refresh" that they almost immediately back-tracked on for 2020. It's almost universally hated, it seems.

The tech is definitely the biggest change outside of the A8->A10 change. Wireless Apple Car Play and Android Auto was added in 2021 I think? The infotainment update was also pretty large, with much improved screen refresh rate as well as a fresh interface.

A# and M# is common short-hand for either an Automatic and number of gears, or a Manual and again, number of gears. Looks like the 2019 started the A10.

Nothing. Gm put the Chevy bow tie in the middle of the bumper instead of a little one on the grill and the internet made a big deal about it.

Subjective, at best. I think it's hideous, and most seem to agree.

Outside of that, the 2019 is perfectly fine.

The big vent in the middle of the hood bothers me more than the bow tie placement.
