I still think it's kinda weird so many people here are concerned about EV infrastructure for an electric Camaro. For many of you, this is a weekend/toy car. Are you really driving it 300+ miles on...

I would absolutely buy an electric Camaro, so long as it's a 2 door and reasonably priced. I have no doubt GM's chassis engineers will make it a good handling car, despite the extra weight of...

Honestly dude I would just trade the car in for the family SUV. The asking price is kind of steep for a V6 Camaro with aftermarket mods that have the potential to void warranties. Or you could at...

We have become so spoiled where we can discuss wanting a 450hp+ car to be under $40k. Not that I'm complaining. It's awesome, but we should keep some perspective. If you want 450hp+ from a...

Are you going to daily the car? If so get the V6. The V6 gets better gas mileage, but more importantly runs on 87 fuel.



Is the car going to be a toy/weekend thing? If so get the V8.

Keep in mind the base model Z ($40K-ish version) does not come with a Limited Slip Differential. For that alone you need to pay $10K more for the next trim level. That's a big mistake IMHO. They...

Hmm, I don't think that's too much of a concern. The main draw of the Mustang, Camaro and Challenger has always been cheap speed. They punch way above their price range when it comes to speed.
