5th gen??? what can you tell me

[redcamarored]

Hey everyone,

At the moment i own a I am driving a 1995 Camaro with a 3.4L engine pushrod V6 and don't get me wrong i love the look and feel of 1995 model one of the best cars i have ever driven. Now i have seen online and i am looking to add to the collection a red, 5th gen, 2010 Camaro for sale at a great price but i have never driven one so before i do go out to test drive one i want to see what you all think of the Camaro itself! some specs first

Specs
Year: 2010
Engine: 3.7L V6
Body type: coupe
Kilometers: 24,00
Transmission: automatic
Fuel: petrol
Drive: rear wheel

The more and more i look at the beast the more i want it i swear i go to bed thinking about this motor at night!
So everyone here being users what can you tell me about your experiences with the 2010 Camaro how does she handle? Whats it like to keep up with maintenance? Also to throw it in their how much would you pay for it yourself given the Specs and is still in excellent condition??

Example image below


Thanks

You want my thought ay? V8. That is all.

EDIT: Irrelevant to the post, but that grass is nice. Wish I had grass like that.

That is a 3.6L, not 3.7 OP. Before people turn this into a V6 vs V8 discussion, I'll chime in. I've owned a 3rd gen IROC Z28, a 4th gen Z28 and 2 5th gens. My first 5th gen was a 12 v6 auto. With a 10 v6, you get a 304 hp 3.6L. You'll definitely feel a big power difference between the 4th gen v6 and 5th gen v6. It's a tremendous difference. In fact, the 5th gen will be a better car in every aspect, expect weight, but coming from a 4th gen, you'll wonder how this hippo can dance so well. If the price is right, buy it and enjoy it, you won't regret it.

As for price, I don't know which Cape Town you're from. In the States, specifically in Michigan, something like that would go for about $17k US dollars in excellent condition. I'm not sure this helps you any though as I don't know how's they're priced in your area.

It has a ss front bumper cover, you sure it's not a v8?

He says it's an example photo.

The sample image you posted is a 6.2L V8. Not the 3.6L V6.

So you aren't seeing the car that is being sold, or they are selling an SS at V6 price.

It's hard to give an opinion unless you have images of the actual vehicle, including some of the interior. There were 3 versions of the V6 in 2010.

Example image? That is a v8 pictured FYI.

Edit: CFred beat me to it. Lol

This is my 3rd Camaro and my first V6. My others were 3rd Gens with the 5.0 engine, one an auto, the other a stick and the V6 in my 2013 would blow the doors off both of my other cars as well as out handle them.

I say that if you can get it at a price comfortable to you, DON'T HESITATE!

[redcamarored]

All good reply's i am pretty positive i am getting one now. Your black 3rd gen looks real nice!!!

Not to hijack, but my grass is ten times nicer than that...greener and more consistent. My house however, can probably fit in that house's foyer.

OP, I assume you live in South Africa?
