bluetooth

If I understand correctly, I can't get bluetooth on the camaro. What are other people on Ontario doing about this, since the law now mandates hands free. I'm about to go order my camaro, but I'm really concerned about this issue.

The Camaro DOES have bluetooth except on the LS and 1LT models i believe.

I have the same one in my daily driver (Mazda 3), and although I hear fine on it, people on the other end tell me the it's very hard to hear me because of noise...
Still...it's not the same as a buolt in one that mutes the radio. The quality of the bluetooth in my wife's 09 Pathfinder is beyond compare to the BlueAnt.

2LT and 2SS have blue tooth and i think you can add it on a 1LT as an option.

My 2SS/RS has bluetooth and it works very well. I literally never have to think about syncing my devices to it. I love it.

As per the brochure, that I have, bluetooth is standard on 2LT & 2SS, also available, as an option on 1LT as part of the "Convience & Connectivity Package"

I have the bluetooth and its an awesome feature. Works great because the other end hears me perfectly.
If im washing my car, and my cell in my room. I can still answer calls in my car
I was never a person who cared for bluetooth until i used it in the Camaro and now i cant live without it. You can also stream music via bluetooth. The car can be across the street, and you can change the song with your cell phone from your front door.
Make sure yoou get the bluetooth on your Camaro, you wont be disapointed

If your camaro has the connecivity package you get bluetooth. As already mentioned, std on 2LT & 2SS models, option on the others. And this blue tooth is far superior to the other aftermarket bluetooth options out there. The clarity is amazing and the steering wheel controls is something you can't get with an aftermarket joby.

Or.... you could just do what I see most people doing here in Ontario since the law came into effect - just break the law
