Nice car...it was a 2SS 6spd with the 455hp DI 6.2L. This car is really nice and outward visibility is improved but not a huge difference. The hood slopes much more so the road is more visible. Rear visibility is similarly crappy. The clutch seems very light in comparison to my Z/28 and may be better compared to an econobox feel. I like the HUD in the 2SS and the center stack had lots of easy to read info. Sppedo & tach had traditional needles while the other gauges had a graphical/projected display. The rev match feature of the 2SS is spectacular, and I so wish the Z/28 had that feature. Torque is very meaty with this engine and it pulls with authority to the redline. Great car and I can't wait to see what the high hp version of the 6th gen Camaro gives us. The platform is less bulky and feels narrower in traffic lanes than the 5th Gen. Stock exhaust in this 2SS is the NPP and sounds great for a stocker. 6th Gen seems to be a great platform, and I give a big thumbs up to GM for improving performance via technology and less weight.

You should buy one and sell me yours. Lol. I have sat in the 6th gen and like it also. Will be interesting to see what they come up with for zl1 and z28.
