Hey all-
NY here and I'm excited that I just placed the order yesterday! She's going to be a 2011 Victory Red SS/2SS. I'm coming from a 2008 Dodge Charger, which I won't take out of my profile until I finally have my Camaro. The Charger has been fun but it has been a bit of a compromise for me. It's not the SRT so it's got less HP than the SS I ordered and it's got the 4 doors. Looking forward to a car that's all about performance and isn't a compromise.

Of course I'm already looking at mods. There's already so much available for this car and it hasn't even been out that long! Can't wait to see what they come up with next for it!

Good luck with your new car. Welcome to the team

2010 SSRS · 12-01-2010, 11:20 AM

Welcome and congrats

Welcome to Camaro5 and congrats on the order. I hope the waiting isn't to uncomfortable for you. Did you mean RS/ 2SS?

Welcome to C5 and Camaro ownership! I never understood why Dodge didn't put them cool half-doors (think mazda rx8) on the Charger. That would have been way cooler than what they did. 4 doors on the Charger and hood scoop and wing on the "gaytona" pickup? Design dep't hit a home run with the Challenger though.
Mind if I ask why you didn't go for the Challenger since you already have a Mopar?

Congrats, where in NY are you?

Was considering challenger but:
To get similar HP srt8 is lot more money
2011 srt8s still haven't hit the street and you can't even see it on website yet. They are really dragging their feet
While the retro styling is attractive, its not as stunning and bold as Camaro styling
Even w upgraded interior on the mopar in 2011 the camaro interior is still sexier
