The SS does 90 MPH at 2k RPM like a sedan cruising at 55.
I just cant get over that.
Its wicked how potent these cars are out the box. I was on TX130 and caught myself doing 5 over the limit (85 speed zone) and it basically felt like it wasn't even trying. Love it. |

I had my dealer install a 60mph speed governor. But I heard 65mph is fun!!

I was used to driving my old Mazda 3 on trips to Las Vegas. This last time in the camaro I was able to open it up on I15. The wife was shocked how quiet and smooth the ride was at the higher speeds. I love my SS.

A bunch of us were going the back way to Reno when we we passed a SUV on a rural 2 lane road. I looked down and was doing 115 at about 3k. The girlfriend and I were both stunned how smooth it is.
I love my car!

It's funny, because I'm reading this, and this is how you describe a Porsche. For GM to release a chassis that feels this stable at speed is beyond impressive...
