2LT/RS - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I finally got to DRIVE a 2010 Camaro. It was SIM 2LT auto with black leather...
It was very nice to see another one, I saw a V Red, in Reno last week. Anyway, this car is nice to look at, but I did NOT want to stop driving it. Even with the V6 auto, it was hard to walk away without it. I planned on quite a bit different car, Z/28 at first, but then decided to hold out for a Z for later, but still get a RS for now as a daily driver.
So, for the test drive: It is very surprising for a V6, it sort of sounds good, sort of, if you are a die hard V8 guy the sound wont be quite right. The power is good at low rpms then it tries to go ballistic when the revs build, it hauls @$$. The ride is firm, smooth and the steering feels really good. It has been a few years since I sold my 02 Z/28, but I would definitely take this car (6) over the Z/28. And I loved it. The interior was really good, of course some things could be nicer or different, but it was HARD to get out of it and walk away. If it would have been IOM interior... I might still be in it. So, if anyone is near Reno NV. I can strongly recommend Wild West Chevrolet in Yerington NV. The sales staff was very friendly and accommodating.
MSRP $30,010, Kathleen said $30300 otd (plus tax), I was out of time and she was with another customer, so I did not get word on the Military discount or GM card policy from them. The car was still for sale Wed nite.
I will attempt to add some pics...

Better than 2002 Z28? Don't know about that. But everyone says it's pretty damn strong.

NOT stronger than the 02, does not sound as good, but the look... and the tapshift, usb, bluetooth, onstar and future turbos etc...

If anyone wants a silver V6 auto... call Wild West

in NV.

2LT RS is the perfect daily driver imo. U get the looks of the ss but the v6 to save on costs.

+1 That is what sold me on it.

It's just a solid looking SIM car. Honestly, every color is great but SIM just sticks with me.
