the best review on here
I have a 2010 Camaro 2ss L99 auto v8 and have owned this car for over 10 years and I know almost everything there is about these cars. The earlier models of the 5th gen Camaros (2010-2011) suffer from bad rear diff seals, the seats have no lumbar support so if you have a bad lower back I don't recommend this car. The interior is plagued by cheap plastic like all Chevy's, however the engine and transmission are solid, no issues whatsoever. My only problem with the auto v8 is it comes with the L99 v8 engine and not the legendary LS3, the difference between the two is the ls3 has a more aggressive valve clearance, a more aggressive cam shaft, and a steel crank shaft, when the l99 v8 has a less aggressive cam shaft, less valve clearance, and an iron crank shaft, however the automatic transmission has more aggressive gear ratios. If you take a stock ls3 Camaro and run it in a straight line vs a stock L99 Camaro, they will tie with each other, the LS3 has way more tuning potential compared to the automatic L99. The factory aero is quite well compared to all my other cars the strong Southern California winds barely effect my driving at all, this car is fun as heck and will for sure hurt some egos out there, with the right bolt on mods, and a good custom tune you can expect to take out stock hellcats, equip it with a power adder like a supercharger or turbo and you will unveil its potential. Drive safe have fun!

Buy it.
At the time of writing this review up it has been an amazing vehicle to drive every day for close to 13 years now. Pros: - Most powerful and quickest of the "Big 3's pony cars" for the year of 2010. - If you want to drop a camshaft in this car the heads do not have to come off of the 6-speed manual LS3. Easy to make ~500 RWHP on pump gas. - The Canadians build this thing right and I have never had structural, engine, transmission or body issues. - Has a backseat; Corvette does not. Cons: -Rubber pieces of the interior wear away too easily over time. -Horrible visibility that hasn't been improved even in current year-model Camaros at the time of this review. -I have had to replace the air conditioning system twice, each time costing over $2000 at a dealership.

I’ve had my SS Camaro for almost 10 years now
I bought my car brand new in December 2009 still looks brand new inside and out only have 30,000 miles on it. The only thing I can say I don’t to much care for is the seats .the seats aren’t the most comfortable seats but other than that I love my Camaro .

Best overall muscle car you can get!!
This thing is just plain and simply the best thing I’ve ever owned. 2010 RS 177k miles. Bought it at 150k and have been nothing but impressed. The only things I have done is changed out HID bulbs, installed KN air intake system and replaced timing chain, & run seafoam 2-3 times a year (MUSSTTTT) Here are the things I seem to think make this thing the best: MODS- you can make this cars potential anything you want and it WILL make a difference. GAS/PERFORMANCE- V6 sounds (to car guys) weak but is it an ego problem you have or is there such thing as enough power,sound, performance, fuel economy & budget all in one? LOOK- this thing is beyond it’s time even today 10 years later especially the RS package! FEEL- inside and out this thing feels and drives better than SOO many cars out today and will stay that way. There is so much more but last and not least RELIABILITY. I have driven this car state to state and has never failed me once. I have run this thing hard and has continued to exceed my expectations! THIS IS A TRUE WORK HORSE!!

buying what I want and support in the decision
I’m satisfied with the upkeep of the vehicle. There were no “ you have to get this fixed” going on. I pulled out with a used car that looks feels and smells like a new car.

This is the car I’ve been looking for for years!
I truly am so happy to have found this gem! I knew eventually one would come along. It is exactly 100% what I wanted. I would highly recommend Chevy Camaro AND cars.com I bought sight unseen and was not disappointed. Faulkner motors was very accommodating and helpful.
