Love the camaro in every way, its a great car. I went with it because of the independent rear suspension, plus it looks so good.

My only issue at first was visability, took me some time to adjust the mirrors correctly but its good now. I still kinda park funny because I have the Ground Effects Kit and the nose of the car sticks out and I never know how far to go in the spot lol. I sware I must look like I'm 80 years old parking my car. Slow and Steady, LOL.

it is a big car, a lot bigger than most for a "coupe". Takes a minute to get used to, but damn it grows on you fast.

Cons: lumbar seat not there. Back seat is like a small shelf. No spare tire. I bought one online. Can't use standard dash kit for stereo. It costs money to look this good. Everyone always wants to race you.

Pros: Fast. looks sick, turns heads, chicks are always wanting a ride. Guys are jealous cuz they don't have one. It is worth the money to look this good.

There are no negatives, these Camaros are absolutely awesome, you should buy one.

It was so ugly and slow, I felt so sorry for it. So I took it home and made it live in my garage. I "pity-purchased" it.

Love the car as a whole. Things I wish were different? That the V6 was a little more mod friendly i.e. FI. Was really looking forward to having a 450- 500HP FI V6 but we're not there yet. DI, Bosh ECU, weak rear end and tranny are kinda problematic. Interior lighting could be better and a few more places to put things like sunglasses, cell phones, change etc. and a grab bar for the missus....she really hates that there's not one to grab.

Otherwise I absolutely love my Camaro. It puts a smile on my face every time I drive it....and I'm coming off a steady diet Hondas and Acuras and Toyotas for the past 20 years.

I had a couple of S197 Ford Mustang GTs before my Camaro, and was worried I wouldn't like the Camaro after I ordered it, but after taking delivery, all my worries were history.
The Camaro seems much more solidly built, has independent rear suspension, so rides much more confidently at speed, and is way sexier to look at.
I can't really think of any serious negatives, that aren't just nit picking.
