I love it.. turning the key, listening to the rumble, makes my sticker peck out.

It's the best looking car on the road! Funny how the cheapest car I drive gets the most compliments/attention...I was driving alongside a Gallardo down the beach one day and a few people gave the Lambo a thumbs down and me a thumbs up! 23k to 200k and the Camaro is cooler in the eyes of the people!

I like how truly great the car is and how few problems or dislikes I personally have with it. Oh who am I kidding, the ONLY thing I don't like is the lack of room in the backseat but I love all the attention the car gets!

...Throwing it down into 3rd and passing on a two lane Farm to Market road.

I love that other cars don't look like it. The dodge would be the closest thing, but it's soft looking...where the Camaro is bad a$$ looking. I sure hope the Mustang doesn't start mimicking the body lines.

I love everything about it except for backing up and even that is only a minor thing.

This is probably the first car I have ever owned that I am 100% satisfied with. Zero buyers remorse here.

The looks from the kids are nice but I don't care what other people think. I care that it rides well for me. The car seems made for me. I have short legs and a long torso (I'm 5'11''). I fit perfectly in there whereas I fit awkwardly in all of the other cars I have owned (2 Corrollas, a Lancer, a Jetta, and an Impreza).

True it helps that it has a ton of power too but I didn't buy a 2SS for that either. The price between the 2012 2LT V6 that I was looking and the 2011 2SS that was on the lot was literally $3,000 (less after the negotiations). The MPG and minor features (back up cam, power passenger seats, etc...) aren't that much better on the 2012 V6 to warrant saving a couple of bucks in my eyes.

As for on the road, it is the meanest car out there, especially with the RS package and the HIDs. That thing just looks like it is going to run people off the road even when I am only going 35.

My only wish is that there were more places to open my ride up. I feel like I have a caged lion and I'm only letting it out of said cage to go potty. It's straight up cruelty.

tl;dr - I love my car.

I pull up at daycare to get my 2 year old and all the older kids come running to the window and each and every one of them yells "Nice car". Happens almost everyday.

I like the retro look and interior too!!!!!!!! Make me feel like I'm in a 68-69 Camaro...some people complain about the interior but I think it looks badass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Andys562 · 12-19-2011, 01:55 PM

I actually don't like making people "envious."
I like people being amazed and appreciating the beauty of my car, but I don't like making people feel jealous and making them feel less than me.

But that's just me.
