"Nothing like the feeling of turning the key and knowing there's 426 hp just waiting to be unleashed. On the 45th Anniversary Edition, The metallic paint glistens in the sun crusin' around town. And to say the sound that resonates from within the dual stainless exhaust system is good is an understatement. Definitely worth the price. Just the feeling of of driving one of Americas most powerful muscle car alone i worth it. Boasting a more than generous 426 hp and 420 ft. lb. of torque. It'll get you where you need to go faster than what you're used to. If you are worried about fuel economy, After driving for 6 months dash says 21 average fuel economy. Not bad when looking at power figures. Now the bad. Fog lights are not controllable with hid headlamps. Considered running lights only on when headlamps aren't. Seats aren't real leather, but i don't mind it. Would rather have it the way it is. Lots of small little places to clean to make it look as good as it did when you bought it. In my mind it makes washing it last longer which is always a good thing. You learn not to rush and take your time. Finishing on a good note, overall an excellent car to drive throttle is sharp brakes are responsive. The only real thing wrong with the car are the blind spots."

"The 2012 LT2 Camero convertible body style is patterned after my old '67 Camero RS. With 20" rims, Pirelli wide tracks, and dark metallic blue paint, it is eye candy the moment you see it. The black leather interior, soft lighting, heated seats, Boston sound system, and an accelerator controlling 323 horses, makes this car an old man's delight...The optional tracking system paired with the ability to shift from an auto transmission to a standard shift ensure you'll never be bored exploring this cars performance. Looks like my old age will be more fun than I anticipated."

"Very comfortable car, much better than I expected. The handeling is much improved over the 10 & 11 cars. It does not lean excessively like the earlier models. The stock gearing is waay to tall. I will be putting on some 28 inch tall summer tires next year to get some extra twist. The power pass seat is great. I no longer feel like I'm sitting on the ground when we go for a ride (wife's car). I love the vehicle overall, I just wish the pricing was closer to a mustang. The Camaros seem to always be about $2000 more money."

"My first convertible and my first Camaro. Have the 2SS V-8 with 6 speed. Black and orange exterior with orange interior. Disappointed that exterior orange color comes from vinyl. At $47,000 sticker, I would expect it to be paint. Plenty of power and a great sound when you stand on it. Transmission is a little notchy, but that may improve with use. I'm 6'9" and have just enough room. Didn't fit in earlier Camaros. Could Detroit finally be catching on to the fact that there are a lot of big guys out there? Handles like a dream. Goes where you point it with no body lean. Really fun to hammer it coming out of a turn. Taken several guys for a ride and they're all impressed. Car feels claustrophobic with the top up, but it's just great with the top down. Really can recommend it, particularly the convertible. Get a lot of thumbs up and waves when I'm driving it."

"There is nothing like knowing you have a new Black Camaro in the garage when you wake up in the morning. If you dont want to buy one dont test drive it because you will go crazy till you can buy it."

"I traded in my 2010 SX4 Suzuki for my camaro. The Suzuki is a nice little car but it isn't a camaro. I got the 6 cylinder LT model black with a white stripe. It is an awesomely engineered product is all I can say. Strangers are constantly commenting on the looks and ask questions about it. I'm 76 years old and driving is fun again. Plus I'm getting 27 MPG, same as the Suzuki. I gave it 4 of 5 on comfort because it is a wee bit hard to get in and out of for a 76 year old but not a real problem."
