I just bought my 2015 ZL1 for 51k because there discounting them like crazy now. You can get a used 2013 ZL1 for around 45k. I decided to buy new because of the price gab between new and used was so small.
Plus the ZL1 has a lot of room for mods, and can be modded easily. I can get 650hp for 2-3k with no risks of reliability issues. Plus the ZL1 sounds and looks amazing IMO. The 2016 SS is going to be awesome, lets just hope it can put up numbers close to the ZL1. However its hard to believe 200 pounds and 30 hp will be that big of a difference. Quote:

The 2SS starts at $43,200, including destination. A8, NPP and MRC take it to $46,400. It will be possible to hit $50k before taxes and fees.
If you start looking at Euro models, the C63, M4, or RS5 are the only comparable models performance wise. The RS5 hasn't been redesigned in 10 years and STARTS at 65k, same with the M4, and the new C63 coupe STARTS in the low 70s. By the time you add the features to make these cars have similar options to what the 2SS has, they are all over $80k. $50k buys you a fully loaded 2SS, or a V6 entry level luxury car with no options. |

That 80K can easily become 69k. |

Chevy regularly offers discounts also. For instance this one last year. Be patient. If you have to be the first to own a gen6 it will cost you.

Also don't forget about the upcoming M2 - should be $10k cheaper than the M4. If it's within a few thou of the 2SS with NPP and MRC I will definitely be cross shopping it.
BMW maintenance will no doubt be higher cost but you get the first 4 years of maintenance free with the Bimmer. |

I agree about the 'meh'. If performance was all the same and we were just discussing looks... some BMWs look cool. The M4 I like. But for me... BMW... AUDI... cool looking cars but they all look the damn same. From the family sedan, to the suv, to the sports coupe.... just corporate looks. In Toronto I see 400 Audi and BMW cars day. It isn't really all that cool or unique around here. I might see one Camaro a day and it is the only car in the Chevy line up that looks like it does. I don't give a damn about perceived 'status' of a car. For me I'd rather have a Camaro SS for uniques looks and great performance.

Maybe a option if you wanted to lease a car for 36 mon with mileage restrictions. The 2SS loaded and paying for your own oil changes is less expensive. |

Once GM offers an incentive the dealer instantly chips the price as GM pays them the difference. A lot of dealers have been stocking up on 2015 Camaros expecting these deals to come. It's free money to them.

I think once we know how the 6th gen actually performs it will be easier to pick other options at the price point. After all if you get a SS you care about performance. Very few of the German cars can compete with the price and performance of a 5th gen, the 6th gen with its additional standard features and performance should increase that divide.

Honestly the price really hasn't changed much. It's going to be costly for convertible owners though such as myself. But when you look at the world of 450hp+ cars the Camaro is cheap at any price. Look at Audi, Mercedes, BMW, Porsche, Jaguar, or any other car maker and see how much it will cost you to get the same performance with the same interior comforts. You will spend at least $70k
