Joined the Gen 6 Family this week.

Last Camaro I owned was a 1984 Z28. (165HP) I must say Camaro has come a long way since then. This car is a blast to drive with the 6 speed and glorious V6 reeving to 7 grand which makes a awesome sound with the NPP exhaust.

The engine cover hides this technology master piece for the average joe. I am a little rusty on the shifts but will get better fast. I know you guys love your SS V8's but this car with the V6 is a heck of a deal and insurance is dirt cheap.

I spent the entire day Clay rubbing, optically polishing and using sealant for the final coat. These cars sit on the dealer lots for months sometimes and paint collects a ton of crap that needs to be taken out by Clay rubbing.

2016 RS, 3.6, 6 speed, Technology package and NPP. Not the color I wanted or the 6 speed, it was a heck of deal so I stole it. Need to order black bow ties and leather knee pads for the interior. Will tint windows and I am done.

Video below is exactly what my car sounds like.

Beautiful car and I love your wheels. I do love my V6. It runs just as good as the old F Body Z28s.

You have good eyes. I will check it out. You are right, the left side is slight lower. Afraid to let them touch it LOL. So far not to impressed with the techs this dealership has I also checked the build date. 2/18/2016

Great choice. Compared to the anemic '84 Z/28 engine, this 335hp V6 must be putting a smile on your face!!!
Enjoy the ride!!
