Your in The minority as 2014 Camaro just won theJD powers midsize sporty car quality award and I'm sure the 15 will win next year. Maybe next time you can buy BMW and spend your weekends sitting in a dealership waiting on your can to be repaired for 3200 dollars.

Not an asshole, but very disrespectful. The lion share of Camaro sales are V6, so if it wasn't for V6 production numbers Camaro would have gotten killed off again.

Buys the cheap entry level then complains its cheap... SMH..... I loved my 1LS in 2012 it was a great Camaro. If you wanted luxury interior and feel you should have purchased a 2lt or a SS.

My take on this.

1) Oil I go through about 1 to 1.5 qt's of oil every 5000 miles . Depending on how hard I drive the car.

2) 91 octane. ... I use 87 octane with no knocking.

3) Rev's hanging during shifts is caused by the Duel Mass clutch. GM did this on purpose.

4) 6sp. is clunky. I agree it could be better. But it's not that bad.

Over all I love this car .

Mine was a month later. Called dealerships for months trying to get a new 1le or zl1 no one had any. Ended up with my ss. I love this car and don't plan on trading it in. Unless the new zl1 1le is priced right. I'm almost paid off so I could always wait a couple years and just get another.

It's an avatar don't get bent out of shape over it. If it bothers you that much maybe you have a problem with your v6?

Maybe one day I'll supercharge my SS and have the best of both worlds.

I agree with you about the 2017 ZL-1. Automobile tested a blue one and I'm in love!!!!

no, not really. I'll admit, the interior leaves a lot to be desired, but overall the car hasn't been too bad.
