The exhaust note and engine roar are awesome. Those of you holding out for the Camaro will not be dissapointed.
How's the 'seat of your pants' feeling?

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
