Camaro SS VS BMW M4
I enjoy very much to find out that (the non 1LE) Camaro SS easily beats the BMW M4 German pride for much less $

Thats a great video. Shows the camaro is much more than a stoplight only car.

To be fair, the M4 at $81K comes with a shit load of options. Plus it is a luxury vehicle and retains more value than the SS. So the price difference isn't as much as one would think. If all you cared about is performance then the SS is the winner. But when factoring everything I think the M4 is a much better overall car. Would I buy a M4 for $81K? No. I'd get a Z06 or ZL1. But for those who want a luxury car that has good performance I do think the M4 is an attractive car.

At some point I calculated that it was probably going to cost me about $70K to get into one, and reconsidered my options. That's when I stumbled on the Camaro SS convertible. It was at least $20K cheaper than the BMW, similarly equipped. I don't know about youse guys, but in my world $20K in savings is really money. I'm delighted with the Camaro and glad I didn't spend the extra money on the BMW.

BMW is only about prestige, here we can see another MT video were the '11 Mustang GT beats the previous BMW M3.
That's why I bought both American Muscle cars. The '11 GT 5.0 and now the Camaro SS. Proudly American made. https://youtu.be/uOwSPccbzl4

No * needed and the SS can burn an entire tank of gas without overheating the engine, transmission, rear, brakes...

I added two other amazing MT videos of the SS1LE & the ZL1 Camaro, those two will leave far behind any BMW, they are more focused on eating Porsches for breakfast.
The Alpha platform with a V8 engine provides amazing performance at the track. https://youtu.be/xjKjnbOsSEs https://youtu.be/MMNifBdm_o4

On the european sport sedans, the performance of the Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio already beated all BMW Ms as well of other euro sedans. But its reliability is very bad.
