I've been stopped literally every time I've driven it so far by people wanting to compliment on it and take a closer look. It did give me an excuse today to drive it a few times though, with people asking for rides.

I don't have any buyer's remorse and know I've picked out the right car for me.

Congrats!

You've got a sweet ride! Don't have too much fun.

Thanks Bill! Though, I feel like I've been grounded this weekend or something. Got the car all shined up on Friday, and Saturday through today -7F, snowing...

Tomorrow through next weekend they're calling for high 50s, low 60s and sunny. I also have some of my engineers flying in so it gives me a daily excuse to drive clean across the city and enjoy some saddle time.

Only complaint I have come up wit is the cup holders. They are useless with the stick shift I hit my elbow on what ever is in them every time I go into 2nd 4th and 6th

I have gotten used to it, however some additional cup holders in the door like my '00 WS6 had would be perfect...

I always had buyers remorse ,but not this one...a fun beast to drive...

I've had mine for 2 weeks as well; only complaint are the tires--though the suspension and handling are quite forgiving, I didn't think I'd be fighting this much wheel spin on my daily commute.

You don't need to floor it from every stop hehe

Traction does suck when its cold. But I haven't had any big problems with it. I adjust my driving accordingly and everything goes fine...

Nice looking car. I've had mine now for 90 days and I still am loving this new generation of Camaro. Today I realized I only a few weeks away until the first Autocross day and the track reopens for the season. Take your car to the track and really open that baby up and realize it's full potential.

So true! Hard to shift when cups are in the current holders, and that was always perfect in the WS6.
