I agree completely ... no navigation system is a drawback ... I'm looking at installing an aftermarket soon. Any ideas?

The paint job also is poor quality.

The weight!

The SwiftChancelor · 03-30-2012, 10:07 PM

A lot of hating going on here I see. Hate that neighbors wanna rev their engines at 11pm, don't make me come out there. Haha.

messi_2k3 · 03-30-2012, 10:13 PM

Blind Spots! (And totally agree that I can't stop modding it!)

If there was one thing I would change, it would be switching the position of the tach and speedometer. I know it sounds crazy but it drives me crazy to look to the left to see the speedo. Just trained to look to the right and that is much more natural. I know STRANGE. Thats why I leave my center info window set on the MPH screen.

Other then that, I can not think of much I would change.

ss/rs-matt · 03-30-2012, 11:57 PM

The fact that I see 30 a day. I hate to say it but they've kinda become the new mustang (every girl has one). You asked.

oyealiz · 03-31-2012, 12:13 AM

I'm left to wonder why alot of you still have your Camaros since you dislike so much about them!

I really can't think of anything I hate about mine. It IS still odd to me sometimes that reverse is not the same spot in the shift pattern as my Vette.

lol, don't hate it the car, I love it. but I've owned enough cars to realize there are a few flaws with the camaro. None of them serious enough to make me not want the car, but there still there.

Gr8ride · 03-31-2012, 09:22 AM

Mines an LS and the only thing I haven't really been able to get over is the lack of USB connectivity. Ive seen It on much cheaper cars And its not like It would have cost Chevy an arm and a leg to offer that option in the LS..Or..was that just a ploy by Chevy to get people to buy the more expensive models..DUn dun dunnnnnnnnn...

And include the AFM designer!

TDevilsG · 03-31-2012, 10:59 AM

Definitely don't "hate" a thing about it. I've only owned two cars in my lifetime but this is the nicest thing I have ever owned. There are a couple of things I think could be better

-Blindspot, but the rearview camera works like gold
-bass on the stereo system, but the highs and mids are great
-interior look could be a little fancier
-quite literally no backseat space

but I think all of those things are negated by the fact that its the most beautiful ride on the road and roars to life.

The default daylight running lights suck too. I miss my Challenger lamps, looked so mean day and night.

I second that. I drive to jersey often and there is this merge, and holy crap its a gamble every time.

I personally hate that it never transformes when Im around, but thats just me.

Angelsilhouette · 03-31-2012, 11:41 AM

My unreliable reversing sensors. I've taken it back to the dealer several times, but they never find anything wrong with them. It will go off at low curbs, it will go off if the surface over which I am reversing changes from tarmac to concrete, it will go off at items at an oblique angle to my rear bumper, it will go off at small shrubs lower than my bumper, it will go off at weeds poking up through cracks in the concrete.

It will not go off when I am backing up towards cars or trees, though, so I have learned not to trust the sensor and am wondering about installing a camera.

mrdth · 03-31-2012, 12:00 PM

I don't hate anything about this car THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT IT WITH MY HARD EARNED MONEY.
I do hate this Bitch Ass thread though.

Rideskinz · 03-31-2012, 12:40 PM

I agree with messi 2k3, blind spots are huge in the Camaro. Plus the fact that the interior view is restricted due to the lower profile windows

Dizzy82 · 03-31-2012, 12:48 PM

No grab handle in the trunk to close it.

chevy dude · 03-31-2012, 01:02 PM

That's easy..The Grille!!!

I'm surprised venders would add things to this thread. Are they saying their products are perfect?
If you don't want blind spots and low window profile buy a mini van.

Hendu · 03-31-2012, 02:53 PM

I hate how OCD I've become thanks to mine.

He asked "one thing you hate about your Camaro"... Although I don't personally own one, I have driven plenty of them to give my own opinion, and obviously my opinion is shared with a lot of other people. Just stating the fact that its harder to see out of the interior than most other cars. The Dodge Magnum/Charger is the same due to the lower profile. Not complaining at all. And I never said our products are perfect, nobody's products are perfect, I don't even know where you would get that from

A minivan isn't required for good visibility. The visibility in my Trans Am is fantastic.

That's what mirrors are for. Problem solved

Loudog · 03-31-2012, 07:57 PM

Like everyone else -right side blind spot

neal77 · 03-31-2012, 08:25 PM

The PAINT chips worse than any other car I've owned in 35 years! Awful!
