I just bought a new 2023 and I LIKE the pops and crackles off the exhaust. It puts a smile on my face when I accelerate, let go, and hear what sounds like fireworks 💥

[PacoRobbins]

Mom has an 8 speed 2SS Vert. Absolutely love the vehicle. Even though it weighs 4200 pounds it absolutely does not feel like it. The acceleration is fantastic.

Other than the Convertible, I have the exact same car, 2017, 6SPD, 2SS, WIth NPP Exhaust and Mag Dampers FE4 Suspension, Hyper Blue (No Stripes)....Had it almost exactly a year now...I LOVE it. I have a 2018 Titan, and a 1994 Prelude Si that almost never get driven now. This Camaro, is the most fuel efficient of the 3, definitely the most fun, and as a 2SS, it's sooo comfy, especially on TOUR mode. The SS is just the perfect amount of power....Love, Love, Love it!

The 6th gen is a fantastic driving car, it really does drive about as good as it gets below 100k. Yeah the packaging and styling is not for everyone but just like the 4th gen f body is now, these will be greatly missed and appreciated in the near future.

I rent cars frequently for work, the convertible actually has better visibility due to no B pillar blinding you and you really don't feel the weight with the power and alpha platform

Best budget serious mid range sports car on the planet! :)

6M 2SS convertible Camaros kick ass! Not a whole lot of of manual verts out there. This is almost my exact car except mine is garnet red. I have been hoping for a while now that the topher would test drive one of these. So glad to finally see it!

[ARentz]

My first Camaro experience was also in a convertible SS. I rented one. It had the "ruined" front end, though with its dark gray paint, less noticeable than in some colors. I freakin loved it. One of the best times I have had driving a car. Though, I don't know if I'd actually want to own one, I can appreciate how fun and silly these cars are - and it seemed to genuinely handle well, too.

I really like this kind of review, feels like I am just chilling with your guys

[ezekielalexander]

The perfect spec my only complaint would be the electronic e brake

[paulguy]

Personally I Like those Black Stripes, but ONLY with that particular color of Blue on that car!

[andygarcia]

While your thinking of Camaro, challenger, or mustang, although auto is faster trust me when I say the only way to buy these V8’s is with a manual!!!! The drive is so much more enjoyable !

[porfiriato]

I've haven't been inside a Camaro since I was a kid. Or any muscle car. I'm considering the 24 mustang GT as my next car.

[Ant-The-Titan]

Told my self I want another one. I had a loaded 2016 2ss coupe, same color as vid, that I had to get rid of but I got a 2017 Grand Cherokee limited v8. I went to the state police academy and it snowed so bad those months I was there. Definitely looking to purchase this same build in vid if I can find another in New Jersey area.

The HUD in my 1LE is almost invisible with polarized sunglasses on.

Amazing weekend car for the enthusiast!

[connorl]

I hadn’t reset the trip odometer on my 17 Silverado, I’ve driven 70k miles and the mechanic over the weekend doing routine maintenance reset it 😅

[HarryBean-mk]

That's just what I need a convertible Camaro with a Charlie in the back LOL I'm just trying to be funny Charlie seems to be a nice guy but I always wanted one of those Camaro convertible

[TheCaffeinatedDrive]

That rev hang is a deal breaker for me, rather have a 19+ 1LE

[Xitronix]

I agree that the SS is enough. Unless your tracking it, the ZL1 is just too much to enjoy on a public road.
