Cool USB Port?

I realize that the Z/28 is striped down, but no USB port!

I mean the base camaro has it and there is a spot for it, so could one be installed so we could more easily access our phone / music.

I was just wondering if anyone has anyone looked into getting one installed?

Why?

Mine is a daily driver and I do have a long commute on a boring straight hwy. It would be nice to access my phone's contacts, music play list, etc. (I also hate the XM Radio selections).

I've tried the blue tooth, but it seems very limited.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

there is a post somwhere about an aux/usb female cord connection that some people have installed. I believe it is Bluetooth as well. The aux port single pole works for me as the stereo in this car is my least concern.

Who buys a Z/28 for daily driving? And music?
Z/28's are made for hitting up triple digits weaving through cars, and racing.

I can access my phone on my iPhone 6, but not my contacts. At least no the same way as I did in my CTSV.

I have done the multiple car thing and it sucks!!! Too much work owning several cars. My track use will be limited to only a few times a year.Thus I want what I want, which is to drive a car that makes me smile. The Z/28 is almost perfect for that purpose...

People that can afford the car and want to. I put mine in daily stop and go traffic in downtown Houston. Sorry if listening to music in MY car bothers you.

Bought my Z on the 8th and already have 1300 miles on it now. I daily drive it except in bad weather. And listening to the LS7 is music enough for me...

Yeah I'm dailying mine too, although my wife has now given me a list of roads not to take due to the poor paving.

I mean, we're going to work. Might as well drive my incentive to and from, yea?

I'm swapping in the mylink nonsense with the ports and camera in a couple days.

The base model Camaro does not have the USB. At least not for my 2013 1LS

I got mine on the 7th and yes the engine sound is one reason I bought this car. FYI- I was at a gas station today and people started gathering around it like I was a martian and the car was a UFO. I thought they were going to jump me and try to take the car! LOL
