My 15 1le to me is perfect looking. It just needed more power. Now it has it

I love my 2014 LS however there are some things I don't like:

1. Overall cheap looking interior plastic/finishes
2. Steering wheel placement blocks gauges
3. I know its an LS but literally no frills electronically.
4. Cant see anything in the back without backup camera which I don't have. Actually limited visibility everywhere
5. I'm 6" tall and have to have seat pretty low to not be at the headliner which further limits visibility
6. Passenger seat does not adjust up or down. Girlfriend looks at the dash and hood
7. Ride quality is pretty bumpy

I love the way it looks and even though its only a V6 I love the power.

Since I started this string, I will now submit its 100th post. One aspect I felt was a bit bland was the side view. While some like to de-badge, I added SS emblems below the CAMARO lettering on the front fenders and added some vinyl inlays to the gill slits. Small additions but I liked the visual impact.

The fact the oil pressure gauge in the quad cluster is hidden while driving. This really bothers me the most because you can't move the gauges around and the battery voltage or something less important could've gone there. Really GM? Doesn't matter now because my OBD gauge flashes if my oil pressure drops below my set point.

Having owned a 12 1LS, and now a 15 1SS,I cant complain much, I never thought
thought we would see the 2nd coming of factory muscle cars(also had 12 Challenger SXT Plus) I would say my gripe in th Chevy is crappy stereo and even crappier paint.

3 items: Having to "limbo" every time I enter in order to avoid conking my skull. Horrible A-pillar vision impairment. Factory "orange peel" paint job. I have adjusted to all above gripes. Still think these cars are the best of the Big 3 offerings.

I didn't like the small rear spoiler and the lack of a muscle car sound. The ZTA rear spoiler and the LT headers with Solo exhaust fix those issues.

This!

On a track with a helmet, I have lay the seat way back and it is not the best position for a HPDE. Would be okay if it didn't have s sunroof.

Mainly just the gauges. They went too far with the retro look and instead should have made a legible IP. I can’t imagine how it would be without the HUD. I see they fixed it in the 6th, going back to what was similar in the 4th.

Gauge cluster where you can see them completely when driving.
No ventilated seats
Steering wheel blocks some of the tach and speedo
And the worst is having the cup holders right behind the shifter... ��

No, it is not installed correctly. It is doing absolutely nothing being installed on the reservoir feed line.

The Ram Clutch hydraulic adjuster is nothing more than an adjustable hydraulic accumulator. It works by allowing some of the fluid (pushed out by the master cylinder) to fill the accumulator instead of activating the slave cylinder. This simply changes how far the pedal needs to travel to have any effect on the slave cylinder, which changes where the clutch release/engagement point is in relation to the pedal position.

Installing it on the reservoir feed line does absolutely nothing and any realized difference with regard to clutch release/engagement is nothing more than a placebo effect.

When I picked up my 10 SS from the dealer I drove straight to to my body
shop and installed the trunk SS emblems below the CAMARO letters. I had
pre ordered them. Apparently lots of guys here have done the same thing.

I installed the SS emblems. I think it was you who recommended 3/4 inch below the Camaro letters. Really like this simple mod.
