Hey guys, im about to get another camaro (last one was flooded by Irene) and I need some opinions.

Choices:
2012 2LT w/ sunroof
2012 2LT Transformers Edition

Transformers Edition:

Normal w/ Sunroof:

I loved having a sunroof in my last camaro but I dont know if its worth passing up the opportunity to have a special edition camaro. Thoughts/Opinions?

Im a big fan of the new TF edition. Has a pretty aggressive look to it that I really like for some reason. Almost got one myself buy my wife wasn't a fan of the yellow, so I compromised and went with black. Happy with my decision, but still have a soft spot for that new TF edition.

angie7 · 02-04-2012, 09:30 PM

TF edition.

CruznSS · 02-04-2012, 09:32 PM

Transformers Edition. I like the black rims & the different stripe package.

Also have to mention that this car will be going to college occassionally. The parking lot isnt all that bad, however, keep this in mind.

Sir Nuke · 02-04-2012, 09:41 PM

well if it were for me......it would be a no brainer.....the 2LT/RS w/ Sunroof. I personal;ly don't care for the spoiler on the new TF edition. but thats just me.

Adrenaline12 · 02-04-2012, 09:41 PM

Hands down transformers edition

camaro_RS · 02-04-2012, 09:43 PM

I vote for the Transformers edition!!

scruffyluv · 02-04-2012, 09:47 PM

which ever one tugs at you!

fielderLS3 · 02-04-2012, 09:50 PM

I feel I have to go against most of the crowd, and say the regular 2LT, particularly if you plan to have the car a while. Not that the Transformers edition isn't cool, but special editions like that have a tendency to not age very well.

bumbl3b33 · 02-04-2012, 10:00 PM

I plan on keeping this car as long as possible and I'm glad you brought the aging factor into the discussion because that point is accurate.

I really liked my sunroof on my last car and I've been driving a truck wishing it had one. However, should that overshadow a special edition camaro? I really like the spoiler on the TF edition and the interior stitching but I'm not sold on the stripes (frontal view, the rest is good) or the black rims. the TF edition is actually cheaper and I already have the polished aluminum rims in my garage so if I wanted to switch I could.

TrillChevyRyda · 02-04-2012, 10:06 PM

Other than the rims...i dont think the tf edition is all that special.

Go with the regular 2LT.

Ravirn · 02-04-2012, 10:11 PM

I admit that I am completely biased in my opinion. I do NOT like verts! (*spit*)

So going with your choices, go with the 2LT TF Edition. But *NO* sunroof!!!!!

hightower · 02-05-2012, 12:51 AM

Definitely go with the TF edition! I personally have a special edition camaro (2SS 45th) WITH a sunroof. And if I had to pick between the sunroof or the special edition, you can bet I'd be going with the special edition!

It's an awesome feeling to have a camaro that's set apart from the rest.
