I'm sure they had to just pick a year and this happened to be the year they chose. I like the look of my 2010 over the 2014's out there. The tail lights look better and to me it's the original production design. All others stemmed off 2010 lol. I'm not looking to sell mine anyway so who cares

try to find a 2LT used or new? Definitely the best seller

When I traded my 2010 1LT for my 2012 I got over 75% of its origonal MSRP in trade and it was over 2 1/2 years old with 32,000 miles on it.

Sorry guys v6 rules, but still love the v8's.

SILVER BULLET RS · 11-24-2013, 10:22 AM

The 2010-2014 Camaros RS V6 and SS V8 are all muscle cars by definition of the 60's muscle car era! Back then if your car had 300hp , it was considered a muscle car! So, YES we all own muscle cars just different levels of HIGH PERFORMANCE!

Moto-Mojo · 11-24-2013, 10:44 AM

V-iva La V6! Seriously, the 'Master Race' notwithstanding, it really does have quite the performance (and gas mileage) for a lowly 6 cylinder. And that apparently didn't go unnoticed by the consumer / resale market.

I share your sentiment. Even back to a 2010 SS, I still see prices in the mid $20K's to and over $30K. People are gladly paying it and people are also handily forking over close to $40K for new ones, so I suppose there is no reason for prices to drop anytime soon.

Performance is huge for resale value, you want to go fast, you have to pay. The SS especially will hold strong resale value 10 years from now. I fear the V6 will take a hit because of all the similarly priced cars with as good or better performance in its price range (Mustang V6, Genesis Coupes, WRX).

I think the retro (2010 and up Camaro ss's as well as the 2011-2014 Mustang GT 5.0) will have excellent resale values in the next 10 years as well.

I would think the rag top V6's would hold there value well as they are a great cruizer car in the summer

To bad its in the garage for the winter

Love mine!!!!

Yeah, hard to say but having lived 57 years, I've seen the V8 / performance cars fall in and out of grace during some eras. After the 70's oil embargo, Detroit made the decision - for us - that we needed little, nondescript, cars with little motors with front wheel drivetrains. We're enjoying what may be the last renaissance of Detroit muscle right now.

MY fear is, that when us boomers die off, the "muscle car" of yesteryear (current year) will be another thing undesirable attributed to the boomer legacy. Face it my fellow boomers, the younger generation thinks we effed up the planet. (jury's still out...) The future Camaro may be a hybrid electric water-burning hydrogen "Flux Capacitor" powered God-knows-what!
