Review
I had my Camaro SS for a year and a half. The car has a phenomenal smooth, comfortable ride. A bit of body roll. What kills the fun on the 2011's is the steering feel. I feels hard, fighting against you. Makes the car feel even heavier.
Acceleration is outstanding, yet it doesnt feel as fast because of how smooth. Once you look at the HUD you realize you are well into 100mph.
Visibility is very poor. Gas mileage was the reason I got rid of it. I averaged 13 MPG City. The maximum I reached on the hwy was 20 (it was a miracle).
After a year and a half later, I would stay admire it as I walked to or away from it. Beautiful style

Traded in my Lexus IS for an '11 2LT. Own the car for a year now and put 10K miles on it. Styling, both inside and out is exceptional, performance is excellent, comfort is good, and fuel economy is as good as you can expect for a car like this. For those who complain about cramped back seats, you simply bought the wrong car for your intended use. Overall the car offers fantastic value and great driving experience.
Attracts a lot of attention, including police(had my day in court). You can't get most of the features the 2LT offers in a Mercedes, etc unless you spend almost 2X the 30K.
Really? $55K and no xenon lights, parking sensors, premium sound, folding rear seats or auto start.

Bought a 1LT auto, with sunroof.
I am over 60 and this car makes me feel young like when I had my 67 when I was 22.
This car has a solid feel.
The V6 is very quick.
I average between 24 -28 MPG in mixed driving.
Ride is good and better than the 2011 Mustang I test drove.
Backing up is not great because of the view, but with the backup camera in the 2012 that will help. This car also gets the looks, people are always looking at it.

I have had my 2011 Camaro LS for 3 months now and it truly is an amazing car! General Motors has stepped up there game when it comes to quality and value so far I have not had one problem with this car mechanically. The 312hp 3.6L V6 runs very smooth and when you open up the throttle this baby moves fast! The 6 speed auto seems to be a good match for this car it has 2 modes drive and sport and when you really want to push it id recommend sport mode you can feel the differences. The exterior design speaks for it self awesome! I see people complaining about the interior and visibility you got to remember this was a concept car and i'm glad they didn't mess with the overall design too much!

I rented this car for 10 days and put 1400 miles on it.
I found it extremely comfortable to drive, however, the visibility issue is really bad and it was good that this model came with a backup camera! I didn't feel that the acceleration was all that impressive but it did have a lot of get up and go.
I felt that the interior was fairly well laid out, but hard to get used to - I would have had to use the manual to figure out many of the features and I'm pretty computer literate.
I don't particularly like the holographic speedometer display which reads out your current speed in the windshield in front of you.
I don't know, for instance, if there's a way to turn this off.

When I was checking out the car I thought no way would the wife let me get it. Get to test driving the car (v8 Manual) wife refused to drive it saying she was intemidated... After we get it home she took it out and now 2 months later 1500 of our first 2000 miles are from my wife cruising around to work etc.
This car is a race car in build. If your seeking maximum comfort or the best gas mileage get a Caddy or a Prius. If you want a car and like many others have said that gets you comments and looks everywhere you go. Feels and drives like a race car. Makes you feel like 1 million bucks. This is your car.
Its fun,fast, and sexy. You wont go wrong here!

Chevy has done a wonderful job with this car.
It is so retro and fun to drive with its big bold look.
I have the 2ss with automatic and you are always in the right gear.
You really punch it and it will set you back in your seat.
Love to go cruising and listen to xm 60s on 6 station and I feel like I am back in the 60s.
Great build quality, performance and handling.
I have had mine for approx 1 yr now and could not be more pleased.
Getting around 17 mph in town which is great for a 400hp V-8.

I own a 2011 SLT Coupe and this car handles brilliantly.
I have owned camaros in the past but nothing this fun and easy to drive.
I really like that mine is manual trans. cause it really feels like your in control of all that power even though it is a V-6.
Every where I go I got people shouting out at me nice ride and people turning heads and asking questions about my car.
I like the body style the and for a smaller car that has low head room it actually decieves you by looking at it because when your behind the wheel there is a lot of room.
The suspension is awesome it takes curves very well and has all the features you need to enjoy your drive. Good buy and excellent gas mileage.

First thing you should know is that I've had this car for a week.
I had a 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder.
This is my 4th Camaro and it's by far the best!!
Compared to the Eclipse the Camaro's sightlines aren't all that bad at all.
The V6 has great acceleration and the gas mileage is better than the 4 cylinder Eclipse.
My first impression of the car was that it didn't feel like a Camaro at all, at least not one that I'd ever driven.
The handling is much more stable!
The weight distribution of the car is almost perfect, I think it's 52/48.
The tires are going to be a little expensive but very worth it!
Over all, I couldn't be more pleased or more excited every time I get in the car

Do you know that girl at work?
You know her...the really hot one you talk about with the guys all the time. She's kind of quirky...maybe doesn't do some things as well as others...but she is sooooo HOT that you are willing to forgive her for any short comings.
That is the Camaro.
Two weeks later and I still look back at my Silver Ice Metallic 2SS when I leave. Feel eyes on you as you are stopped at a light? You are not paranoid. Everyone is looking at your Camaro. Get ready to answer the question, "how do you like it?' You are going to hear it every time you get out of the car.
If you are unsure about the 6 or 8, just test drive them both and step on the gas...the choice gets easy.
