The interior is comparable to me...but I'd give a slight edge to Ford if I had to pick one. Although I love the seats much better in my Camaro!

My biggest complaint about the Camaro has been the overall feel and sound of the SS. It just seems so much larger than it really is...doesn't sound like a muscle car either. The stock exhaust is so terrible I can't even explain it...it just plain sucks! The feel of the interior dash and door panels is weak too...they feel like cheap plastic...but so did the 2010 GT...so like I said, comparable. Performance wise...Camaro all the way and really the main reason I personally bought the Camaro!

I've seen a couple 2011s but not been close enough to hear one or to get the feel for them either...sure I will sooner or later...

Great review...thanks!


if you test drive a 2011, before you start hit the brake and hold the TC button till it shuts off. if you dont the PCM will make you pay with practically stopping the car if it spins. the gates are very close, easy to go from 2nd to 5th.
