I don't want to hear ANYONE complain they don't fit unless you are taller than this guy. 6'9" and he fits very well. Nuff said about the roomyness of the Camaro. Congrats!

I know Chevy will strike back. I think they’re letting the competition sore out their innovative technologies and surprise us just like they did last year with the 2010 Camaro. Makes you wonder why GM don’t reveal to much info on future models.

Internal reports on NAV vs. non NAV vehicle residuals. Keep in mind it doesn't mean the VALUE of the car is less, it means the % of the original purchase price is less. So didn't "hear" that, it was actual data.

To think that just a few years ago people had to actually use paper maps, stop and disembark their vehicles to make telephone calls, and use cassette tapes and CDs for music while driving......how did we ever survive those dark times.

If you can't get from A to B without a GPS, you probably don't belong out of the house without supervision. Go buy your Mustang already.

Check out the video at the bottom and read the article if you're still interested after that.
I hope they will soon! and in a meaningful way! I fear that because the mustang surpassed the new engine in the Camaro so quickly, itl be a while before chevy updates the engine. :(
Sad to hear Motor Trend's remarks towards the Camaro in that video, I think they could have faired a little different on their stand point but I guess they are paid to look at the "overall" and with the Camaro not coming in numbers wise as the most powerful anymore it loses a lot of the points they gave it in previous tests. Even so it does not change my opinion, I love my car and if the 2011 Mustang is faster, so be it, but I know the love of competition with the age old muscle car duels will have Chevy bringing something new to compete. As much as I like the Mustangs I am a bias GM guy all the way and will enjoy my Camaro regardless of what Ford comes out with.

Also, correct me if I'm wrong but, we haven't seen any numbers on the 2011 Camaro V8 have we? How the hell can anyone speculate on how the 2011 Mustang is going to whoop anything when there is nothing to compare it to? I mean unless you want to compare V6 engines but, what's the point of that? Given Ford has laid out their plans, what's to say Chevy doesn't try and one up them in 2011 by going bigger? Just saying, until the official word comes out on the V8, what are we arguing about? Unless I'm an idiot and they've already released the V8 info and I've missed it.

One thing that drives me nuts are people who can't argue so they have to say something lame like "go buy the mustang already".

SemperFi has the words "Camaro" in his avatar pic, he already said he has a Camaro SS and he already said that he is just talking hypothetically about Camaros. Seriously, if you don't have an intelligent argument to say, then don't say it, rather than look like you don't have anything intelligent to say by replying "go buy a Mustang".

This is a discussion forum, why don't people understand that?

They would have announced if anything was different on the 2011 V8 when they released the 2011 info. They already released that the HUD would be standard on the 2SS now, if there were engine changes they would have posted them then.

2011 V8's remain unchanged.

I bought this car for me and because it had the type of power and looks I wanted in a car. I know where some of you are coming from but I could give two shits if the 2011 Stang is faster than my 2010 SS. I didn't buy my car to prove myself to someone. I bought it for ME and I'm more than happy with it. Hell, if I went around worried about some other car being faster than mine I'd be a nervous wreck because there will always be someone faster than you. Enjoy your car man and don't sweat the small stuff. Besides, GM will react and do something to answer Ford's challenge. Do you really think Ford did this to the 5.0 overnight? They have been working on that for a couple of years at least. Give GM time and I'm sure you'll be happy with the results.
