- - My new 2016 SS (https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=481047)

Hey Guy's, this is my new 2016 Nightfall Gray SS 2SS. Just picked it up yesterday. Price was 33K, sold as a CPO vehicle with 3800 miles. No open recalls and as far as I can tell no rear end growl. The A8 Oil cooler line was also fixed prior to purchase. As mentioned in an earlier thread, traded my Mustang GT for the Camaro.....The Mustang was definitely a great car, but I'm honestly blown away by the Camaro. Love the HUD and sunroof, both options unavailable on the Ford. First mod is going to be window tint!

Congrats, thanks for switching. We are a tight group of fast ass SS Camaros. You will enjoy the A8 and Lt1. Its just killer. Take a look at my car and others and you'll see you've made a great choice.

Congrats and welcome!!

Thanks guy's! :)

This forum has been a great resource BTW. Absolutely helped me in my purchase!

congrtaz , what a great color to have

What a beauty! And that's a killer deal for a gently-used 2SS. The car is already broken in for you. :) So one word of warning. If you frequent this forum, you may eventually catch "mod fever" which comes with a side of horsepower and/or style envy. Before you know it, you'll be willing to sell your first-born just to get mods that some of the forum members have installed...and some of these mods are very expensive. You're probably already familiar with this phenomenon since you previously owned a Mustang. Enjoy your new car and welcome to the Camaro6 forum!

Why wait for the 2018 Mustang to play catch up, own a Camaro today. Good choice.

beautiful color combo! After window tint, what is next?

At that point I was really debating if I wanted to get rid of the Mustang. This was pretty much my biggest stumbling block. The dealership called to do a "Follow up." I stated that I would NOT be interested at the higher price point. With that in mind they said they would honor the initial price. I also took into consideration that the prices for these cars will be considerably higher in the Spring. They basically wanted to move the car because RWD V8's don't sell well during a Chicago winter! LOL!

I'm all too familiar with the mudding bug!:biggrin:

After the window tint I want to pick up the plug in module that disables the AFM. BTW if anyone has any thoughts on this please let me know!

And thanks for all the kind words guy's!

I actually purchased this, and then 1 month later, I decided to install a Magnuson Supercharger. The Magnuson tune doesn't disable AFM, but I will soon get a custom tune that will disable it. If you want the Range module, I can sell it for $100 which is half of what I purchased it for. There's one thing you should be aware of. I've heard that if you're not going to drive the vehicle for 3+ days, you should remove it from the ODP port; otherwise, it could potentially drain your battery. I've heard some say they've left it in for a week or more without having issues, but I guess it depends on the age of your battery. In any case, it's something to keep in mind before considering this option.
