My new Camaro 2SS!

my1stchevy · 06-12-2018, 07:04 PM

I've had a 2016 base model Camaro 2.0 for two years. I was patiently waiting until my lease was up before I started shopping around. The pictures of the 2019 refresh did play a factor in my decision to purchase a Camaro that doesn't have to grow on me in order for it to be liked. I was originally searching for a new 2018 1SS model but I decided to see if I could take advantage of any low mileage 2SS models. I purchased a 2016 Hyper Blue Camaro automatic 2SS with less then 1900 miles on it from a Chevy dealer in Illinois. After driving the Camaro 2.0 for two years the difference in performance is night and day! I notice a difference on Illinois roads compared to the Camaro 2.0 in regards to having MRC available on my 2SS. I feel like I don't have to "brace for impact" when it comes to potholes etc. The NPP exhaust is a beast in general. The sound from the exhaust inside the cabin is amazing and it doesnt interfere with the music. Cold remote starts sounds unbelievable especially in a garage. The Bose system sounds 10x better then the standard audio system in the Camaro 2.0. It sounds more crisp and provides better coverage due to the 9 speakers. This is my first time having HUD and I really like not having to glance down to check my speed. I decided to stick with the Hyper Blue and my 2SS turns heads just like my old Hyper Blue 2.0. Looking forward to learning about this amazing model and from this community!!!!!

Congrats, I picked up a used 16 2SS also about a month ago. You are right about the MRC, love that, the blind spot monitor is a real help too.

Enjoy

Color scheme is nasty. Congrats!

arpad_m · 06-12-2018, 10:51 PM

Beautiful car, congratulations

. I switched from an LT with the 3.6, and can attest to the difference, especially at low rpm's. MRC is great indeed and so is the sound.

Your color would have been my #2 choice, but I've seen a few HBM Camaros and I think garnet red is even more awesome, especially in person

that's perfect
