I had a 69 Camaro, and an 02 V6 Camaro. Loved both. Did n't get to drive the 69 more than like three times before I had to sell it. Needed the money, food/rent or a car that needed work. The 02 I am still angry about losing and because of what happened I don't trust mechanics very much. Had one that purposefully killed the engine. 75k on that car. I have a 2000 V6 mustang... that is a project car, hope to get it back on the road again soon.

There's no replacement for displacement. It reminds me of my 69 Mustang Mach 1 with a 351C V-8 (I put that in from a '71 junkyard car). It had a new paint job, hood locks, ram air scoop, four headlights and fastback. Primitive by comparison to modern cars, but it was the best car I have ever had when it came to smiles and good feelings per mile. Everywhere I went people asked me about my Mustang with a big smile on their face. I showed a picture of it to my son decades later and he got the biggest smile on his face I have ever seen.

​@@herbosmoker848 Get a 17 or 18. 2016 has an older version of the engine/transmission (although it's rarely noted anywhere). Also be warned that the A8 is known to have shuddering problems due to torque converter/fluid failures. Mine is in the shop right now for that issue... Imo the one to get is the 2017 if you can. You get a few small upgrades from 2016 (and more models), and it's the 50th anniversary year. All 2017s have a little commemorative piece at the bottom of the steering wheel, and you can buy/use accessories (i.e. floormats) with the Fifty logo without the guilt/shame of mismatching them. It's an incredible car with a great community and fantastic aftermarket. Best of luck!

I got a 2022 LT1 in a lease. Was daily driving it but I was able to get a second "winter car" last week so the 2 winters I drove it (required snow tires) were light. I think I'll just bite the bullet and keep it. Glad it's got Scotty's stamp of approval. But seriously it seems like GM put effort into these cars, those guys really cared about making a good vehicle. Can't say much about their other hunks of junk they sell. I love my Camaro, was a dream car when I was younger and glad I got into one before they were killed off.

Ev vehicles won't replace traditional cars until all manufacturers use the same plug n play batteries for easy swap so everyone can go to a "station" (as we do now) and get "feuled" up or a new battery is engineered that can store more power and can be charged extremely fast without damaging the unit. When this happens, all the ev vehicles made today will become obsolete.

Very soon Corvette will be releasing an 800+ HP range model. By 2025 or so GM has stated that they will come out with/ release a hybrid gas/electric Corvette that's 1000 HP.

Breaks my heart knowing the Camaro and Challenger I going bye bye. I own a Mustang GT and love it, but I love Camaros and Challengers as well. Chevy and GM really hurt their enthusiast fan base with that decision. The Mustang wins the battle by default, but it still sucks for the car enthusiast the loves American Muscle/Pony Cars.

Is the Camaro a slow seller? Its pretty crazy to destroy a very recognizable brand worldwide especially after the Transformers films. The future of cars is getting very bleak, we can only hope guys like Akio Toyoda and Stephen Winkelman are more influential on the industry's future.

Im over here in NYC and I get AT MOST...14 miles a gallon ON A GOOD day, which are rare, 90% of the time its 11 to 12 😬I only really get to enjoy the power late at night.

The only vehicle I bought from GM was the Camaro. However, GM has always treated the Camaro like the step child. The Camaro could have been much better and sold more if GM didn’t neglect it in order to put more attention on the Corvette. GM as a corporation doesn’t have pride in it’s products, only cares about the bottom line, which is why I stopped buying their garbage in 2002.

You have to understand that a 50 year old car has electrical wiring problems,etc. These are not very economical to address. So I traded off my problems, for a more powerful vehicle, with zero issues. Please note that my 67 Camaro was a real live car at one time. Driven in Ohio Salt belt winters. If my 67 was on par with updated wiring etc. I wouldn't have traded it off. Maybe you have a better understanding now of why I did what I did. Maybe you would have done a similar thing if it were your decision, knowing some of the facts that went into why I did what I did.
