Good news 👍

.I think the Camaro is dying after 2020. That says a lot. A true test drive is coming soon. Also, I think a turbo four would be fun to tune.

The very first video review I watched about the turbo 1le Camaro said it was comparable to the BRZ. Then he said it would destroy a BRZ on a track. I'll be test driving this too.

Oh I need to drive it...I might like it and my FRS is getting old. I don't have many choices for RWD coupes (2+2) with manual transmission for my DD. Basically 86/BRZ, mustang ecoboost and the Camaro.

Best: sticky tires, MILD lowering springs, OFT EL E85

Worst: black aluminati shift knob bc it's hot AF and too slick.

(I was stock) Oh, yes! Much louder and angrier. Not raspy. Doesn't hardly pop or burble . But less mellow. Tunnels are crazy, it sounds like a racecar to me with the windows down.
