Chevy Camaro SS V8 455HP $48,500 Review (2016) - Gadget Review

[@PHOBIAx57x]

"Now our car lacked the dual-exhaust option..." Then wtf is that at 2:03? lol

[@germansniper5277]

Ikr!

[@clarenceboomer7756]

Dual mode exhaust.

[@PHOBIAx57x]

+keven nakhoul Exactly, the dual mode exhaust comes with quad tips. I was saying this car is equipped with the $899 NPP exhaust option, aka the dual mode exhaust.

[@NA-du5vm]

I don't think this guy knows what the hell he's reviewing..lol He's not even sure if it comes with the Brembo brake package. The model he has is clearly a 2SS which is fully optioned out. I should know I own a 2017 2SS.

[@coureurdebois]

looks incredibly sexy and aggressive, and here comes the mustang fanboys ranging.

[@tommieboi707]

I'll wait 4 years and buy one used for 20k

[@amandahernandez402]

Fat stomach

[@cloak55733]

Buy It Now For Lease 😍

[@amandahernandez402]

7 Billion Assholes Lol wow your username name ain't lying we do have 7 billion fuck heads in this world👌

[@cloak55733]

+Amanda Hernandez Thanks 😂👍✌

[@coopsnz1]

that's not 1ss with cloth trim

[@brocksamson1176]

48,500 for a Camaro without MRC, and Brembos... Eh. Either pony up for the Stingray or save a couple G's for the more versatile Chevy SS. By the way love the videos, I hope y'all subscriptions sky rocket.

[@Gadgetreview]

+Brock Samson Hope so too! Thanks for the support

[@sean7139]

+Brock Samson It does come with brembos. They are 4 piston brembos, but the upgrade brembos are 6 piston

[@brocksamson1176]

+Sean my bad. Thanks for correcting me.

[@zatharos6427]

The SS is more versatile but definitely not faster

[@kelvinchannel9592]

they are so comfortable and nice i love the V6 RS

[@marshallhong9380]

Awesome vid!

[@Gadgetreview]

+marshall hong Much appreciated !

[@Johnr37us]

I have a convertible on the way.

[@mcoop6620]

Every time I see the sticker prices on these things I cringe. Almost $50,000 and it's not even fully optioned out with the best goodies like the magnetic ride control or brembo 6 piston package. I think this is the reason they haven't been selling too well. There are several dealerships in my area that have had the same ones parked out front for almost 3 months now. The people that have that cash lying around for a performance toy are likely just gonna pony up for a corvette. Idk what Chevy was thinking...That being said it is a great performance machine. It's just that I think they seriously misjudged things when they thought people would actually be ok with that kind of price on an SS.

[@Ravaniscool]

Yes, absolutely!

[@MrGolden43]

Fuuuucckkk I'm dying without having one of these.

[@matrox]

Enough with the Visability complaints, you will adjust in 10 min. Never had an issue in my '11 or 17 SS.

[@AlexAguilar-qs4yp]

4 Piston Brembos are Standard on every SS and 6 piston will be standard on the 1LE. Also the Onstar Remote Link is a free app that does not require you to purchase any Onstar products. It is free for 5years, but overall great review!

[@gentlemonsterkennels]

Any idea how much the 1LE will cost?

[@AlexAguilar-qs4yp]

No Numbers have been released to us yet. We are expecting to know by next month.

[@zatharos6427]

God I wish front license plates never existed. It looks terrible on the front of this car or just and sports cars in general

[@daison96]

Damn, this thing is gonna have a strong presence on the roads!

[@kelvinchannel9592]

i love it can't wait until the ZL1 come outs

[@Int3x0r]

In Belgium this car will cost you an extra 10.500 euro one-time registration tax (this is NOT VAT) and a yearly 4.700 euro road tax. So after you buy this car, you'll pay 15.200 euro taxes + about 1.700 euro if you get an all risk insurance. Fuck this shit.

[@coopsnz1]

You don't sell 1ss in Germany , only 2ss auto that's $8000usd more

[@NoLifeArcade]

Coming from someone who currently owns a 2015 1LT Camaro, the steering feels great on that beauty, I'm pretty sure it's electric, but I could be wrong…redardless in a year or less I will certainly be looking into trading up for a 2016 or 17 model, I don't see enough of them out there, and I lose my ish over so much as a picture of these All American bad asses!

[@SFBay69]

badass engine, just hideous exterior.

[@NoLifeArcade]

I think the 2016 interior looks gorgeous! Have you seen it in all the alternative colors? My favorite combo has to be the Rally Yellow exterior and Kalahari interior, the only problem is you can't pair them up anymore. :(

[@Rebel_71123]

He was talking about the exterior so why are you talking about the interior?

[@NoLifeArcade]

They kinda go hand in hand, like I said certain interior colors really help bring out the exterior design. If we were looking at a basic Black 1lt with no RS Package, and the generic black cloth seats I would 100% agree with his comment .

[@scelik2006]

Great review! The model you drove does have the dual exhaust :)

[@Gadgetreview]

No switch. Don't think so. Corvette was a discernible difference. This all sounded the same no matter what mode it was in.

[@bobedwards2486]

+Gadget Review Dual tips is a dead giveaway that it has the dual mode exhaust.

[@mr30witda30]

+Gadget Review hold this L

[@PHOBIAx57x]

Yeah, you wrong.

[@63falcondude]

Cool review. FYI that car does have the dual-mode exhaust. You can tell by the quad tips and gloss black rear diffuser. (I have one).

[@naperking]

Any electrical gremlins pop up during your test? Infotainment unresponsive? Auto transmission locking up or shifting slowly?

[@zrx4me1]

visibility issues suck

[@SlowWhip]

Awesome vid! Keep it up

[@Gadgetreview]

+Stutta T Thanks!

[@Ravaniscool]

I love all your reviews! Thanks!

[@Gadgetreview]

+Ravaniscool Much appreciated!

[@coopsnz1]

1ss manual in cloth trim $37,500usd / 2ss auto with sunroof $46000usd

[@ParkerSomerfield]

The 6 piston brembo brakes are not standard on any model, hence why it costs $3,000 extra. The 6th gen camaro does indeed have electric steering, but so did the 5th gen. The 5th did not have hydraulic steering.

[@jarrettbarber9995]

+Parker Somerfield 2010, 2011, and 2012 models had hydraulic steering. And the 2013, 2014, and 2015 had electric. But yea you're still right the outgoing models had electric steering.

[@gentlemonsterkennels]

+Jarrett Barber you have any idea why they went to electric?

[@chartres89]

Red Bumble Bee

[@kingdomdreams4]

"drive it in manual mode all the time" no, its much much louder in automatic mode, the only time its loud in manual mode is when you switch over to downshift it revs on the downshifts

[@landongoynes4549]

Is this camaro really worth it over the new mustang or not??? Still trying to decide??

[@edgarchill4321]

are you guys going to review the 2017 Corvette Grand Sport?

[@ajduka124]

Great work, keep it up!

[@Gadgetreview]

+AJ Duka Thank you!

[@thenightrunner270]

Did you say 9 million hours in development???

[@MansaX]

A small vicious animal that devours mustangs!

[@matrox]

Its Badd asss for sure. Hottest thing on the road right now.

[@jrvbamafan1]

there's no doubt this is a nice car, but at the end of the day, no matter how fast or what options are on it, it's still a camaro....it shouldn't be a 50 grand+car. if I'm gonna pay that then might as well just get a corvette for a bit more. think I'll keep my 2003 cobra that'll walk this thing, has retained it's value even after 13 years, and still only has 16,000 original miles on it. camaros and mustangs were originally marketed as affordable pony cars...there's no reason unless it's a zl1, roush, or shelby that a mustang or camaro should be more than 35 grand

[@coopsnz1]

Until Union leaders and democrats got greedy on Manufacturers left fuckwit . Bernie sanders you will pay even more

[@lewiscottle1234]

Thanks for the upload! #AddItHere

[@iamEddieP]

I thought all SS models had Dual exhaust???

[@JamalKhaffaf]

this might be strange question but how tall are you? reason i am asking cause i am 6.2 and in my current camaro 2010 with slid-roof option. I actually dont fit in that car. I have to tilt to the right little bit in order to sit straight.

[@pmanning3688]

I'm 6' 2" myself and fit in the car without much of an issue in fact the seat has a decent amount of room to drop down as well. I read that the sunroof may cause an issue but j haven't noticed it

[@SkyWalker-sz5gf]

There are actually 5 driving modes. Competitive (launch control) can be activated when in sport or track mode with a double tap of the traction control button.

[@87ferrarif40]

Is this launch control option on the Camaro 2SS?

[@carlosesparza504]

Chris which one did you enjoy the most, the Audi S3 or the Camaro SS talking about overall aspects on both cars

[@Gadgetreview]

Tough call. The SS is raw unadulterated power but feels big and not as easy to drive. S3 is zippy, fun and easy to drive. Which is to say the latter is for the less experienced and less enthusiast. Make sense?

[@vernonprice5986]

Telling people to drive the auto in manual mode is absolutely terrible advice. GM's 8L90 works much, much better when left in automatic mode. If you want a manual... get the manual. If you get the automatic, keep it in automatic mode.

[@Gadgetreview]

Nah. It's better. Trust me.

[@naperking]

+Gadget Review A true manual is better.

[@gentlemonsterkennels]

+KingPNW define better because the auto is faster

[@gentlemonsterkennels]

I test drove this car (auto) and did notice that the down and up shifts were much quicker in auto mode. The paddle shifters were laggy. But when not racing, it would be fun to use the paddles. I hope, one day soon, that Chevy or Ford implements a proper dual clutch tranny in these cars.

[@vernonprice5986]

gentlemonsterkennels The auto is faster, but that's all it is. The manual is more fun to drive, more engaging, it weighs less than the auto, it loses less HP through the drivetrain, you have both more control over the engine and a more direct connection with it. The manual is a visceral experience that makes you a part of the driving process, the auto does all the work for you. Autos put me to sleep, they're so boring. You put it in D and then don't do anything else. How is that fun? If you live on a drag strip and you need bragging rights, then sure. Get the auto. For those of us who live in the real world and enjoy driving our cars on real roads, the manual is more engaging and more fun.

[@mr30witda30]

I watch this video every day

[@Chris-df6jc]

No need to repeat 3:00

[@SantaWithGuns]

Every Camaro I see are the V6 automatics. Same with the mustangs :\

[@ahmedalhosani6895]

Which is better to get V6 or V8 for Camaro SS ?

[@eduardobaylon5495]

Ahmed Alhosani The RS is the v6 and the SS v8, if you can afford it you may go with the SS

[@vincentnaticchione2962]

Hector Cortez RS is v6 335 hp and SS is v8 455 hp

[@payne1925]

Thats my car!

[@gonzalezgrant]

Chevy is King

[@quickdubbs328]

My name is written all over the SS Camaro 😍

[@cloak55733]

wtf ... I thought Ur Profile Have Ass Pic But No Its Not

[@omkot]

yawn. 48k? Chevy is on drugs

[@coopsnz1]

why? Blame Union leader greed on Manufactures socialist twat / 1ss in cloth trim is $10000usd less

[@mustafaalbusaad236]

what happened to the front wheel at 0:49, its skinny

[@mustafaalbusaad236]

Nevermind

[@Shinsephir]

ill get a gt350 for 48k...well once the market adjustment goes down.

[@gentlemonsterkennels]

Ahahahah ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!! You made my day. Those shits are way over priced. But hey, supply and demand. I don't even like to pay msrp for my cars.

[@coopsnz1]

Business costs are higher today , Blame Union leader greed @@gentlemonsterkennels

[@CaptainCJ97]

Badass

[@YashPatel-sv2vx]

BMW M4 has car play as an option

[@YashPatel-sv2vx]

Apple Car PLay yes!

[@neo4102]

im 5"8, think the visibility will be bad for a daily driver?

[@niksun9510]

neo87 visibility is horrible- but I love mine at 5’ 2”

[@just_a5.7]

HADES X I'm 5'3 can u see out the windshield ?

[@molo1706]

Is it okay if you use it daily , or it like a weekend car ? any side effect from daily driving maybe ? thanks :)

[@vincentamiri4828]

I drive mine as a daily. The only downside as a daily I can think of is the back seats if you have people riding in your car a lot, which I don't.

[@jasonparker5746]

+Mohammed Abdulla I also own one, and It is a great daily driver, but I agree that the rear leg room is limited.

[@Gadgetreview]

Could be driven daily. Just not the most practical. Decent sized trunk. Just small windows and a challenging driving position.

[@TheSympathize]

If you want something fun and sporty to drive, then yeah, it's a good DD. One thing that you'll have to get used to though is the poor visibility of this car. It's certainly circumvented by the rear view camera, the blind spot detection, and just proper mirror adjustment, but if you're someone who's used to looking over your shoulder before changing lanes then it will hurdle that you'll need to overcome.

[@tonyklasanovic3429]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@REDZ28won]

Way overpriced.

[@gentlemonsterkennels]

How is that? It's only 4K more than the mustang. And it offers a whole lot more. By the way, the mustang can't even come close to this , performance wise. I own a 2012 mustang GT myself and test drove one of these so I know.

[@REDZ28won]

Doesn't matter what the Mustang is price wise. the Camaro is way overpriced. GM must be trying to get more money while they can. They wonder why people keep buying more mustangs.

[@gentlemonsterkennels]

REDZ28won It beats the competition and ties with an expensive M4. You can easily get a brand new 2016 camaro ss with magnetic ride suspension (most basic model and manual transmission) bellow 37k. That is pretty good.

[@trippplefive]

what's a better car at this price with similar features and performance and mpg?

[@josephstalin4202]

48k???!??! Out the door?

[@vincentnaticchione2962]

Zhao Jay yeah you can probably get it out the door for that

[@coopsnz1]

Usa price excludes local taxes

[@just_a5.7]

I might be getting one for 19k it's red ss

[@just_a5.7]

Fingers crossed. Prayers up

[@RaulRamirez-qq4td]

you guys get straight to the point, awesome

[@mr30witda30]

v4 ?

[@lahsiv]

+Anthony Hill idk

[@Gadgetreview]

+Vishal Raj cylinder deactivation at highway speeds. Like the Stingray

[@josiahthibodeaux]

Carlos Lagos cousin (laughs), nice review.
