I imagine I'd replace the suspension with something designed for a little more ground clearance, say a foot and a half or two more. Throw on a set of nice chunky tires, add a few skid plates to protect the drive train, and take her off-roading...you know, the normal stuff one does.

You would also need a transfer case and a front diff.

Well enough of that like the title says what do you got planned for your Camaro!?
so I will have the bare bones LT with 6cyl and stick.

Daily driving. Getting the 2SS with a stick is no big deal for me to daily drive, even in Cleveland winters - I work 3 miles from home now, my parents live less than 5 miles from home, I have a huge shopping center and mall 3 miles from home, they're all side streets, no traffic. I used to work 22 miles from home until I got this job.

This is going to be awesome. I know I will have to put on snow tires in winter but I even hesitate to do that since I'm so close to everything.

I may not put 50 miles/week on the car.

My wife has an FJ Cruiser. If it snows... I'll drop her off on the way to work and pick her up on the way back.

<<<< We had about 75" of snow last year.

As a daily driver and possibly some fun drives. Realistically, I don't see any track use for me.

2LT / RS for me. Daily driver and weekend canyon carver. Live in Portland OR so who knows. Maybe I'll try out a driving school and a track day or two at Portland International Raceway. Tires are expensive though so I can't imagine that'll happen more than once or twice.
