What an amazing car this is

I know it's the umpteenth thread about how good the 6th gen is, but I thought it deserved one more This morning I went to run some errands (happily), and I again realized how wonderful this car handles, sounds, reacts, pretty much everything about it that matters is top notch.

Yeah, I also complain sometimes about this and that, there are some minor flaws here and there, thin paint and little space and kiddie back bench yada yada, but once you get into the seat, strap yourself in and the V8 rumbles to life, once you take the first few turns, none of that matters anymore. Even the A8 is gradually getting better, it seems to have learnt my preferred shift patterns and does what I would with the stick, only faster. I am very grateful to the Camaro team for this wonderful machine.

Best of all, I don't even have FI yet, wonder how much more exhilarating it will get after that, heh.

Have had issues with the radio
Its a pain to jack the car up, and I will not let anyone else do it if humanly possible
The brakes dust up the rims quicker than any other car I've owned, and even heavier than many race brake pads that I have used on other cars
The trunk opening really doesn't allow for use of the trunk space
And there are a host of other minor things that I could go into
…………………..BUT

No car is perfect and I still LOVE the 6th Gen and drive it anytime I get a chance.

Thank you GM for building this car

The perfect combination of the Alpha chassis with the V8 nothing else is better at that price.

The only thing I would give up my SS for is a ZL1! These are amazing cars!

You wouldn't think so if you visit Miami. They are all over.

Not me, I like that I dont see many of them on the road. Tons of mustangs and challengers though.

As long as GM sells enough to keep Camaro alive, I'm good.
