So far are you happy with your camaro?

It's been a while since the camaro's come back so I figured it would be cool to get some honest opinions on where some of you are with your purchase.

Are you so far satisfied or was it a mistake? No one will know what you voted for so be honest.

I voted V8 and regretted it. I love my 1SS Vert I just had all the problems I have had in the first 3 months of ownership. 23 days is the shop. Going in for top replacement again, window regulators gone bad, parts on order for 49 days before they came in. All in all not happy with the quality of my 40 thousand dollar car.

my honest opinion is that the camaro 2ss is a lot of car for the money. there are a few lacking features and i still believe the aesthetics of the car sometimes make it look like a toy car, but overall it is an incredible machine for what you are paying. i only say the 2ss because as the most decked out camaro you can buy (aside from the zl1), the MSRP is still well under 40 grand.

as for 95 birdie, i've only heard it a few times on this board, but sometimes any manufacturer makes lemons unfortunately. i know it isn't very common with the camaro.

I voted no regrets but would have opted otherwise
I absolutely love my camaro but.......
with all the top issues of the verts , I am concerned and maybe should have got the 2SS/RS coupe with sunroof? instead.

I like to consider how my friends react to my car. I have one of the nicest(not most expensive) cars amongst my friends and they are constantly telling me how badass it is. I like how this car turns heads everywhere it goes. I think it's a great machine and I'm very fortunate to have the chance to own one.

I like the Camaro but see myself moving on to something else in a few years. I now realize that it will take lots of money to upgrade the car to support the kinds of driving I would like to do which is track racing. I'm leary to put that kind of money into a Camaro SS. Should have waited for a ZL1 or Vette.

will be 2 years this coming April and 8400 miles on the clock. no regrets on v6 or 1LT dealer appearence option. Love the performance/handling and the fuel milage. gotten more compliments on my Camaro than I have on my classics, and to be honest the V6 can keep up with them.
