2018 Chevrolet Camaro 2SS 2dr Coupe (6.2L 8cyl 6M)
Stupid fast AND handles like a dream; hard to take the smile off of your face while you are driving it. Even better if you get the magnetic shocks and other optional bits. Very manageable blind spots, especially if you have the blind spot monitoring; don't listen to the people that haven't driven one.
Good: Great looks, power (lots of it), handling, fun and nice creature comforts … (especially 2SS)
Bad: Some interior paneling is plasticky, worse on lower trims (though better than in years past) and no hanger hooks in back seat
Need to know: You will draw looks in this thing, tall drivers (>6'3) may find roofline/view a bit challenging, virtually non-existent back seat, trunk space is good but opening on small side, sits low and doors are large, limited/weird storage spaces
Better than I ever dreamed

2018 Chevrolet Camaro 2SS 2dr Coupe (6.2L 8cyl 6M)
This car is amazing. Way faster and more powerful than expected... And (reluctantly admit) needed, lol! 6'0", 300lbs...so not the easiest to get in and out of. But what pony car is easy? But once in, you are wrapped in a big comfy hug. The car has great extras included. The guages are great, with many options. The engine and tranny... Well, you will wet your pants when you hit the gas if … you are not careful. All of that and I still average 21.8mpg! I can go on and on... But to put it simply, I love this car and highly recommend it!
Never disappoints

Which Camaro does Edmunds recommend?
There's no loser in the bunch, but for us the sweet spot in the Camaro range is the 1SS, which gets you the Camaro's 6.2-liter V8 for that authentic muscle-car experience. The 1SS is nicely equipped with in-car tech, too. On top of that, consider the 1LE Track Performance package, which brings the excellent FE4 suspension, an electronic limited-slip differential and Recaro sport front seats.
Full Edmunds Review: 2018 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe
Driving
9.0A strong performer that blends speed with precision and enjoyment in a way previous Camaros never did. The SS V8 is stout, but even the LT's V6 is punchy. Handling feels more precise in the V6, but the V8 with its stickier tires exhibits higher limits. Impressive eight-speed automatic transmission.
Comfort
7.5The Camaro's ride quality is pretty comfy considering the Camaro's mission, and it gets better with the optional adaptive dampers. Most drivers will find comfort in the front seats, but some may find the the lower cushion odd. Don't bother with the back seat.
Interior
5.5It's improved over the outgoing car in layout and materials quality. But it still suffers from poor outward visibility and trades function and space for style. There are also some ergonomic foibles.
Utility
5.0The Camaro has a compromised trunk and minimal interior storage, and that limits its desirability as a daily driver. The Ford Mustang and especially Dodge Challenger are much easier to live with and use by comparison.
Technology
The Camaro comes standard with a considerable amount of infotainment tech and can be outfitted with a variety of optional accident avoidance and visibility-aiding devices. Easy-to-use touchscreen interfaces as well. All told, best in segment.
