No more Camaro :-)
I had my '12 SS for a year. Just traded it in for a '13 Evo X MR.
Way more fun! At least I can say I tried the whole American muscle thing, but it's really not for me. Aside from a bit less torque off the line, it does everything better. True driver's car with traction to go with the power, and STEERING. With some AMS bolt ons I'll be at over 400 USABLE horsepower instead of 426 unusable ponies lol. It wouldn't matter how much I did to the SS, it would never be as nimble. I couldn't even get rid of the wheel hop let alone make it handle well. Feel free to flame away. But you'll never succeed in getting the perma-grin off my face! |

Good luck buddy ... There are haters on here that have nothing better to do than to rip on anyone that likes the refresh camaros so with your admission I can only imagine the flaming that will occur. Your money and your life so I say good for you if you are happy with your purchase. I won't follow in your footsteps but I believe in being a mature adult making decisions to better our life so congrats on the new car.

Good for you, and have fun. I went from a supercharged Honda S2000 to my Camaro and I'll never look back. American Muscle FTW!

I have a feeling that the "better handling and power" is just this guys mid trying to convince him he made the right choice.
