I don't know what it is about the new Camaro, I just don't like it.

Now don't get me wrong, I would kill for a 35th anniversary with a built motor.

Meh, you can make anything go fast. Here's a 9 Second Honda Civic:

I wouldn't want that, nor would I want the vulgar looking Chevy.
I like quality and exclusivity. These cars don't appeal to me in anyway. It's a future trailer park car when they become even more cheaper in another 3 years. There hasn't been a day this year where I haven't seen AT LEAST 5 or 6 of these Camaros driving. Impressive? Yes. Amazed? Not at all.

Sorry, the ZL hauls the mail on the road course too. Sometimes you're just outgunnned and for less money. Hurts, doesn't it.

Not really, not one bit. Not even a scratch. Its going to hurt the driver in the Chevy much more if they lose control and smack it into something lol

I'm a GM guy but the new camaro does NOTHING for me. I love my 4th gen F-Bodies though. Not some hillbilly deluxe version either, the nicer examples. Like my firebird for example. Lol

Perhaps I'm a lil biased. Sure beats the heck out of some ricer with light bulbs and wings though.

This is my ****box when it was still owned by Keith owner of HPTuners. This is actually the car that started HPTuners originally. Setup has changed a bit since then.

Well I LOVE the ZL1...I simply love it. I can't believe it weighs 4200lbs though, that's pretty stupid, but everything else I'm in love with.

I like the exterior but hate the interior. Those two pods in the dash for the tach and speedometer is just ugly.

I like the new camaro and especially the ZL1 everything except the interior . Its a piece of junk , GM must have stole Ravel model car plastics . It so cheap its unbelievable.

To edit what I said, I agree with the interior. GM is capable of sick interiors so I don't know what happened with the camaro.

Driven one. Difficult clutch and blind spots galore. If I can't see out I'm not comfortable period.

The look just says "trying too hard". Also, where I live they are mostly driven by single moms or mid-life crisis males.

I love it, got one on order.. I'm going to see how fast I can go with mine and it's a 6speed...

And yes, you can make almost anything go fast if it's built right and you can drive..

As other stated before, Camaro can be fast but the interior and exterior just other GM crappy car. There is plenty of fast car but they have not Mercedes build quality and safety.

Not my cup of tea, but I respect that the ZL1 is capable of. I wonder what it runs bone stock off the showroom floor with street tires?

I like them better than the older body styles and was thinking about getting one because of the HP......but decided on a CLS63 instead
