Biggest most common problem on 5th gens?

I've heard that Evo's have shitty transmissions and that Subi's have a poorly built motor. But I've yet to know what is an issue a Camaro may face

This model has proven to be a very solid car. GM makes a great v8.

Ha, yea I'm looking forward to getting more familiar with my car so that's no longer an issue. Every time I change lanes I'm just praying that no one is over there. I figure if I could get use to not being able to see past the hood on my 4th gens, I can get use to this as well.

This one in my case.... Timing Chains on the LLT as well I would say in addition to using oil as others have noted here. The LFX seems to be better in those regards.
