Sigh.

This is such a common misconception, most likely spread by the manufacturers and dealers.

The fact is, Gen5 Camaros are easily stolen assuming the thieves know what to do. And many do,...

You can get a manual trans on the 2015 SS, but not the prior years.

Car seats fit in the camaro just fine. :) Though, motoring the electric seat all the way forwards and back every time you put the kid in / take them out is certainly a pita.

How do I enable halo lights as DRLs?

My prior Camaro was 2014 1LT RS, and the halo DRLs looked great.

The ZL1 uses its foglights as DRLs, but they're not as sexy as the halos. How do I enable the halo lights as DRLs?

I looked at the one in Dublin. It's a "roll-back", meaning a repo of some sort. The prior owner must have washed the thing with a brillo pad. The swirls were terrible.
