But it's fun to think about and make theoretical builds.

Ooookay.

2016 Camaro SS · 04-22-2016, 11:25 AM

I sold it so I could get something with a V8. Looking fast and being slow got old, even with a tune and full exhaust. It still was a great driver's car, but the V8 rumble and sound is just glorious.

Jfheisenberg · 04-22-2016, 11:52 AM

9/9 - Awesome car to drive, sometimes i wish it had a bit more powhaarrr but whatever, it is still badass.

There is nothing wrong with that. I think everybody defines sports car different.
If speed is something you like, enjoy the new Camaro. 2016 ss is badass !!

5 out of ten. I would give it a higher score but the lack of power is the determining factor. Yesterday I got my ass handed to me by a stock 4 door 90's tercel.

Did you finally get a 6th gen Camaro SS? How are you liking it?

That's weird, those cars have like 90hp new he must have had a swap or you tried to take off in 3rd or something lol.

Oh it can't possibly be the driver. It has to be the car.

Weigaldo · 04-22-2016, 04:20 PM

I love taking turns at 30+ mph while the guy who was tailgating me had to slow down below 20 mph. I put some distance between us and then they aggressively pass me doing 20 over the limit... Just to meet me at the next light. If this car had more power, it wouldn't be as much fun driving (legally) on public roads. Aside from the window chirping at the top of the closing cycle in warm weather, everything is good so far 3500 miles in.

I am pretty new on this board, but it still cracks me up that people complain about the horsepower on this car. It is not a fast car, but a car you can drive fast. I haven't tracked this car yet, but I know it is on par with my NC miata and I use to pass so many people on the track with that car. Enjoy the car for what it is.
