Tell me about your LS
Hello everyone, im looking for some advice/reviews on a LS Camaro. I am currently looking at getting an LS in a couple of months and was hoping to get your reviews on how you like your LS. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I just want to get some feedback on how you like your LS and what made you decide to get an LS over any other Camaro Trim. Thanks Everyone!!!

its nice.... its a base model, however its not really stripped down at all. The power is there. I have a manual. It will still turn heads, but rims are a must.

Originally I chose the LS because it was what I could afford, but this car is Terrific and I love it! It shares nearly all of the most-mentioned best features with the SS - beautiful styling, great handling, solid/quiet ride, and lots & lots of attention wherever we go.
I did add a set of the SS 20-inchers and that makes a big difference in looks. Some other reasons I went with the LS: I prefer cloth seats, don't need a bunch of extra gizmos to go haywire, bluetooth? get off the damn phone and drive! Did I mention affordability? 25k with stripes & spare tire!!! that's a super price for a great car! This car is SO great I don't think you can go wrong no matter which way you go. Good luck with your decision, and post some pics when you get it. |

I just saw an unusual LS on a dealer lot in Southern Il. Rally yellow with black rally stripes and black 21" rims and tires plus manual transmission. Sticker price was $28K. I didn't realize you could get the dealer installed 21" wheels and tires. The LS looked pretty good with those wheels plus you'd still have the steel heritage wheels & tires for winter. That is another option I never considered. Add a set of fog lights and this would be one good looking car. I wonder which speed limiter comes on the LS. For the price of those wheels and tires it ought to be the 155.

I got my LS because of the price tag. But I was blown away with how "not base model" it feels. It drives the same as a 2LT. I have the manual trans which makes it 1000000x more fun
Right now my car is stock except for an amp and sub, but I just ordered a cold air intake and plan on redoing the exhaust, adding racing stripes and fog lights very soon...... at some point new wheels and a supercharger, as well as the halo HIDs But even stock it is a great car for a 19 year old girl It gets me a lot of attention!![]() ![]()

I was waiting for the vert to come out. But my tC was having issues and I needed a daily driver. Saw an LS and the price was too good to pass up. This car is juat as much fun as my 69 SS vert and I can drive it everyday. I am using the heritage rims for winter but will stay with the 18 wheels due to tire cost. 90 vs +200 Got a set of wheels from another camaro for the summer for 500.
I added a Barton short shift, and HID headlights and foglights, airraid cai, havoc dove tail, and multiple bling. The aftermarket is exploding for part. The price point of the LS is better than any other V6 options. I wouldn't be surprised that the next version of the camaro will not include an LS model forcing people to by the LT with high markup option to make the GM bottom line better. The V6 performance wise has made me rethink my purchase of a V8 vert. I want a vert but I really do love this LS.

I have a loaded SS but have seen a couple of LS's at camaro shows. There cool because they are few and far between. Not a big fan of black wheels but those Heritage wheels are so retro- very nice. There's not many around but a local dealer here in Ct shows 3 LS's in stock. two @ $23,000 and one @ $25,000 : Loehmann Blasius Chev, Waterbury, Ct 203 437-4141.

I don't think there is anything "base" about the LS.

"LS" LOOKS SUPER! I got the 1LT but if I was the only one going to drive it i would have gotten the LS with Manual transmission.. Being married we had to Compromise...She wanted the Leather seats, of the 2LT, but I didn't want the price. so we got the 1LT w/Automatic split the difference...
I would have been perfectly happy with a LS

I went looking for a LT but when I found this one, It was instant love. I really don't feel that I have settled for anything less. Any of the extras I want, I'll just upgrade as I can afford it (Plus it gives me something to do

Love my LS drive it every day. I must say IT IS A BLAST TO DRIVE!!!!!!! and the price can't be beat for what ya get. Just don't over pay for it, if ya don't get it for sticker walk out. The only thing I did so far is rally stripes and I want fog lights.

Got the LS because of what I think is its unmatched bang for the buck. The DFI engine is very high tech., nothing base about it. Fit and finish is fantastic. It has exceeded my expectations. I don't think the price will stay where it is, there is too much technology to keep it <$25k for long. The manual is a hoot to drive. Lots of aftermarket options even for the V6. The LS is my daily driver.
