Loving my LT - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Back2Black · 12-30-2014, 01:41 AM

Owning my 2011 for 3 weeks now (28,000KMs on it), V6 Camaro LT RS Package, I am loving it, I was really skeptical how much I would enjoy it, last owning a 2006 Dodge Charger SRT8 6.1 Hemi, but I purchased it based on its looks, driving and gas mileage.

I have to say, yes I am a slow learner and after reading the Forums, I learned that I can stick it into "M" and get some of that 312HP out of it..

When I test drove it, i was impressed of its Power in Auto, but now I just drive in "M" and feel some nice power..Yes I realize its only a V6, but I am 46yrs old and its the Quickest By Far! V6 I have ever owned.

BTW, I belonged to a few Dodge Forums while I owned my Charger and I've gotta say, the ppl on this Forum seem more friendly and don't treat you like your an idiot for not knowing... (Glad I switched Cars and Forums) .... lol

Welcome to the forum! Idk if your planning on modding but if you'd like to at least make the car feel even more peppy, purchase the vitesse throttle controller . It's a great product! It is easily installed and uninstalled if need be. No tuning necessary. But enjoy your camaro man! If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me or any other members here a PM and we'll do our best to help!
