Camaro SS (Muscle Cars Pt. 2) - Everyday Driver

The second part of our long-awaited showdown between the 2010 Mustang and 2010 Camaro continues with the Camaro SS. The guys drop the hammer on a great road under ominous skies. And they wrap up both cars with an argument! More Reviews at www.EverydayDriver.com.

[@JoePetriCoach]

I love my 2011 Camaro 2SS. This review is spot on.

[@bobcolleencaron8190]

Yep. Review is bang on. Love my SS. Mustang is for those who just want cheap power. The Camaro is way more refined which is why I chose it after driving both first. No regrets except I want a 2016 now!

[@Shane-Singleton]

Bob & Colleen Caron Agreed. Still happy with my 2012 SS. There's just something about rowing through the gears even in normal daily commutes. It just makes you happy. Life is too short to spend it driving stuff you hate. Visa vis the 2011 Mazdaspeed 3 that I had. An ok car. It just ended up not being what I like in the end result.

One of my favorite SS reviews….probably cause the way homeboy was bragging on it lol 🔥✌️

[@CaptJackSplat]

The deficits you've described are common complaints/concerns. This car seems to favor the driver and not the passengers, both shotgun and beotch. There are three things that can be done to overcome these shortcomings. (1) Be the driver. (2) Get a convertible and drive faster than others. Blind spots either dont exist or don't matter. (3) Take your truck to Lowes - not the Camaro. It wasn't intended to be a frieght hauler. Its an affordable alternative to a Vette with additional storage.

[@Super1coolman]

Great reviews. I went with the RT Hemi Challenger. Best looking, best driving, more room and sounds the best. Best definition of muscle car among the 3. Just put on flowmaster super 44's. I'll never sell it.

[@coolmodee]

Dodge quality is sht. Yeah a muscle car owned by fiat.lol.

[@drewinhou]

The rt is the poor man's hemi muscle car. They are not really any faster than the other two brands v6 models. And they definitely are nowhere near what the SS maro or 5.0 in performance. The SRT and up is where its at for Dodge. They are heavy and need the extra power to run with the other two. But the RT hemis need aftermarket parts to run with stock maros and stangs.

[@Sleepy.Time.]

I would pick the Camaro just because i like how it looks, body looks cool.

[@sidewayznut2009]

I agree American cars are way toooo big especially the newest models. THIS WAS THE BEST REVIEW EVER!!!!!!!!!!! I think what this review shows is that the two cars are close enough in VERY different ways that its all personal preference. This is defiantly one of the best car shows along with Matt Farah's show. My favorite magizine is Motor Trend but you guys got them beat on videos hands down.

[@VaunShiz]

independent rear suspension dosent make the car really handle better , it just stops the car from getting upset after hitting a bump.

[@resplendentwitticism]

Which is exactly what makes an independent better..

[@blakestone75]

Ten years later and Gas is absolutely dirt cheap right now. Did anyone see that coming?

[@EatmyDust1311]

@Echo19Delta Mustang is built in Flat Rock, Michigan.

[@brucec43]

Too many reviewers want big coupes to handle like Miatas. They also think everyone wants to drive them like they're on a track. And finally, not everyone needs a big trunk. I have a pickup and a Volvo XC60 R Design if I need to pack a lot. These cars are about looks and attitude. And speaking of it as if it's a gas guzzler is unfair. 28mpg highway is not bad.

@mardamek1 You're most definitely right, but unless you take C63 to Renntech or something, it isn't a true "fastest lap" track car. That's not what AMG is about in it's production level cars. The Boss and the M3 are fast and both may great sounding V8's, but between interior, looks, and that AWESOME exhaust note the C63 puts out, I would have it over the Mustang in a heart beat

[@alecmets2011]

well you can always put it on your parents insurance and have you listed as an occasional driver, which, lets be honest, EVERYONE does. Is it legal, not really, but people still do it anyway. And like godwhitepk said, the actual car has little impact. For a 17 year old, a used 2011 5.0 mustang is the same cost to insure as a brand new honda civic

[@johnmace2447]

@@francisprevel1 hes referring to gas mileage especially if you drive hard they really suck down some gas. Id say filling up these beasts would be 60 bucks every 3 days. Thats based on my driving. And a daily yearly average miles of 12,000. Which is the National average anyways. That would be 600 a month in gas just to give you a rough idea. I used to have a 500hp 2002 6spd z28 camaro, and that’s around what i paid. Plus oil changes and maintainece. Which is about 120-150 an oil change and 2-3000 a year in maintenance, so your looking at 10k easy a year to drive this car.

[@MrWackotaco]

Great car. Rented the SS in LA. Muholland bombing. Tail out on every turn. Would like one but, they are staying high in the used market. After spending a few days in it, ALL other cars felt like little girl cars. It's just mean looking and beefy feeling.

[@ceooflovingthehomies9294]

It’s funny how things have flipped. The Camaro is more the pure drivers car and the Mustang is more the looker, louder (if you have the active exhaust) hot rod that is more fun as a daily. (However both are drivers cars and both are hot rods and lookers so those are all relative statements I made).

[@resplendentwitticism]

The 5th gen camaro is a bit fat and does make you an ass while driving, but it looks amazing, is a wonderful cruiser, and never fails to impress. Not to mention it was the first car in 2012 (of any car tested) to receive a perfect front and side crash rating. So add safe to the list.

[@EverydayDriver]

We hope you've watched our GTR review. It's an amazing car, but it's not perfect. We discuss its weight and its good and bad points in our review. In fact... the GTR fanboys seem to hate us for daring to critique the car at all. Thanks for watching this piece, and we hope you'll watch more of our work.

[@flipfloplogic]

Camaros look much better than mustangs. They look beastly like predators on the prowl. Camaros perfectly merge a modern look with the muscle car era feel. Mustangs fail in that regard. Too modern. Challengers look better than mustangs but are too retro imo especially inside the car. Overall camaros are a better package.

Talk about aging well. Recently bought a red with black stripes SS from 2010 relatively low miles with 40k on it as we speak I mean the car looks phenomenal and it may sound biased but truly the design of it at heart hasnt changed much from the 5th gen to 6th and it was 36k? For a brand new on ? I bought mine for 23. Guess they dont depreciate that much either

[@La.Ron9]

Even tho i have to fill up every 3 days buying a 5th gen ss was probably the best decision i’ve made. always puts a smile on my face

Goes to show you how awesome even a base LS3 Corvette is... The LS3 Vette would be like a Camaro SS dropping 600 pounds, gaining 10 HP / 8 LBFT (with the NPP exhaust), then becoming more aerodynamic, and last but not least, adding wider tires as well. That's a stock LS3 Corvette. :-)

BTW, handling is awesome for a heavy car. Who the hell is on the track every day anyway. It has an unbelievable weight distribution of 48/52! What's with the comment about sitting low in the car with high dash? It's awesome! Like being in a cockpit. Mustang sits too high and the suspension sucked on the Stang when I drove it. Bounced all around when going over bumps. Zero rattles in the Camaro now years in. I've never had a rattle free car until now.

For me, it's the Challenger hands-down. Why? Because it hails from the Mopar family. And if that's not enough, it's a Challenger. That just ends it, as far as I'm concerned. The Camaro and Mustang have never been as cool, in my opinion, as the Challenger. Not in the '70s, and not today. But honestly, if someone pushed me to get a muscle car that I'd drive every day and enjoy the most, there's only one option, and that's the OLD Challenger. Driving it would be a perpetual orgasm.

[@GregHuston]

How long will they be produced for? at least another 13 years.

[@g8spikyhair]

I got a grin on my face from ear to ear just watching you guys drive that beauty. I know the feeling, behind the wheel of a V8 really gets the adrenaline rushing.

[@shxkn]

tough decision. but for me.... i think i'd end up buying the Mustang. the Camaro in another sense to me looks like a completely stupid car. the styling of it is...is is chidlish. it looks like it came from a cartoon, why you think the styling is so hot doesn't make sense to me. I like the Camaro, but looking at it from the front, its a joke of a car. but love the sound n everything. but leaving that bias out, for how i wanna go about the roads on an avg day, Mustang wins this in my opinion.

[@n9athan]

lol honestly the camaro was better then the mustang back then, and i'm about to be a mustang owner so i'm not being biased, but now the mustang came back and beat it, soon the camaro will be redesigned and come back to kill m3's and c class amg's as well as mustangs, and the battle will go back and forth, but soon the difference will not be the axle because ford will most likely change that it will probably be between DOHC v8s and OHV v8s

[@shxkn]

You're cool. i'm sorry if you don't like my comment, how bout you stfu? i'm being honest, i don't like muscle cars much because they do nothing but move in a straight line and make a lot of noise. in any case i still like the Mustang, i just don't think the camaro wins yet. its just a big hotwheel with a lot of power, i personally don't like that. idk nor care for what you look for in a muscle car, but in my opinion i'd rather drive a Mustang... ...or a tuner. got a problem with that?

[@Camarorsguy]

You guys want a car you can drive daily and still get a stupid smile on your face every time you get in it? Get the Camaro 2LT V6 with RS package. It actually handles better than the V8. Excellent fuel economy, great power and in the near future of 4 cylinder cars and high gas prices, this is the one you will keep for the long haul, not the V8. High powered V6's are the future of muscle cars and 304 HP from a V6 ain't bad.

[@Manbeast222]

@247boxing Agreed, just sittin gon one without driving it in a Chevy Dealer Lot doesn't mean u have experienced the car completely...lol That's what test drives are for :/

[@tony23zz]

3 things. 1. What's wrong with german cars? i rather own a beamer or a benz than this. 2. It's built here, so no shit it's cheaper. German cars are everywhere here in the US. 3. maybe they don't import much muscle or american cars to your country? and their not cheap to insure, and gas is as good as a monster truck.

[@redboycaptures]

Not really...those would have turbos if they want to push 300bhp, add the turbo lag and you won't get the same acceleration at the lower end of the curve. Also cheaper 300bhp than Mustang/Camaro? Very very difficult to find. Some candidates that come close are BMW1 series and perhaps Mitsu Evo. But other front wheel drive cars just dont compare.

[@EngleSackJus]

*They should have just made the backseats one big bucket connecting with the trunk to increase space. C'mon lets be honest here. WTF was GM thinking about when they made those back-seats??? Has 2 to be a joke. Even midgets would be sitting right on your neck if they could squeeze back there. Camaro is one hell of a car 4 it's price however. =^)

[@DivineTrader]

Sweet. Yep, you could probably take me. I have a supercharged S5, sports suspension, and big brake kit. 443 ft-lb and 537 bhp. I think I could beat you on the track though. Not sure. It would be a fun race. (I could destroy you in the rain no problem. LOL) I like those GT500s. Nice cars.

[@WorldOfIvillis]

If I'm not mistaken if the heaviness of the camaro isn't really for anything I'd guess it goes for safety? My mom's 3 series bmw is or atleast feels heavy but it does feel sturdy and safe. Idk it's my opinion. It can't JUST be heavy. The doors of the car feels like a brick wall so...

[@smrochin]

@Mr123camaroz28 o ya i know it but, im more worried about beating the 5.0 first with a SS first is what they need to do then the z28 against a gt 500. they need to put the camaro on a diet. or put the ls7 in the SS and the LS3 S/C in the z28 and id b happy with that.

[@tony23zz]

There not bias towards imports... they were talking crap about the GTR. Also the difference between these 2 cars, the GTR goes 0-60 in 3 seconds, the Camaro SS is a good 5 seconds, although the ZR1 is damn fast, the GTR will still out perform it on a track.

[@otters72]

Love the bit at the start about it being american, but its actually built in canada. The guys left something out though, it was designed by Holden. Yep, the Australian arm of GM... won the World Car Design of the Year 2010 too. So, yeah, its kinda american.
