Man, I just got a 2SS ‘23 can’t get over the sound of the Camaro guys… it has a special place in my heart forever! Yes it isn’t the fastest! But the handling and experience is insane! But It puts a smile on my face every time I drive.
Im pretty sure it only comes in black, never seen a Camaro without a black interior, it looks good but wish it had some other options. Besides the red accents around the cabin.
Both are incredible cars, I have most experience with GM vehicles, it's the devil I know, but the new Mustang's are pretty fucking sweet and I wouldn't mind owning one.
@@rocksjoshua Mines a Khalahari interior, basically peanut butter. Theres also tan, like a light tan. And redline camaros also have a red interior i think.

Owned a 2018 GT premium and now a 2017 SS 1LE , build quality of the whole car just seems way way more premium. Even when you drive, just more fun, better handling , better quality. Yes, no space , but who cares?
The 8spd auto is trash though, i had a 17 ss and i had it back at the dealer twice for tranny recalls and the damn car would shudder at about 50mph. Only time the transmission was responsive was when you had your foot on the floor
@@bignickenergy2042 I swear by one thing, only the ZF 8 speed is an enjoyable automatic transmission when it comes to American muscle cars. Yes the 10 speed is faster, but the 8 speed responds to paddles almost like a DCT and is just more fun around town. I was talking about the Tremec manuals, those are built very tough!
Keep up the simple videos, they are enjoyable. Props to owner he's super chill. Your response is spot on regarding how crappy the M82 trans is compared to other manuals on the market. I hated my 15's trans/shifting. And what is required with all the aftermarket stuff to make it work 1/2 way decent is just bs imo. Only manual ford offers at the moment worth a damn is the gt350.
Being a Subaru WRX owner and having driven a Camaro SS, it is a different feel entirely. Granted, they're two different manufacturers but it's just amazing how much more enjoyable the Camaro is. The clutch is lighter and shorter, gearbox is closer together and it's a little easier to drive in the city. I don't like the Active Rev Match personally because I like to control how much gas I give when I down shift but it's all personal preference. Great video guys.
@@patiezful a lot of people aren't a fan of the new tail lights and front facia of the newer 2019+. It's all personal preference, I'm not a fan of the new look either, doesn't look as sharp and menacing to me, looks too Darth Vader-y
I wish he had driven your car like you drove his, so we could have a better comparison, but I understand... you don't want to assume you can drive it like your own car! Good video!
I love Camaros. Especially the fighter style cockpit you mentioned. And the interior lighting stuff Chevy implemented with the infotainment systems. I wish Dodge and Ford could do the same. Although I havent been in a newer Mustang so I dont know.
I believe that you can get similar multi-color interior lighting as an option on the Mustang. Which highlights an issue with options... You can get a bare-bones GT for less than a 1SS Camaro, but the 1SS is better equipped. Furthermore, when you put options on a GT that are comparable to an 1SS (or 2SS), you'll actually be getting more for your money with the Camaro. For 2020, Chevy did the right thing and released the new LT1 trim (should've done it years ago!). The LT1 gets you the V8, with upgraded brakes over the LT trim...for ~$35K...and it's still better-equipped than a base GT.
How is it when it comes to overall practicality for every day use? I'm stuck between ordering the 1SS and the GT because I know the GT has better storage space and can run on 87 octane but I know the camaro has a better suspension and a better torque on the low end
Dont feel bad im a truck driver and ive only driven a 10 speed manual but never on a car but a truck is way harder too stall out cars look like your timing has too be faster then in a semi truck.. i wasnt very good in a semi but too my defense they were old trucks im sure with fucked up clutches they were stiff too get into gear always grinding gears from all the students all day long so what do you expect plus they make you double clutch which is a very awkward timing in the real world drivers just float gears or shift normally they dont double clutch i dont understand why they make you clutch into neutral then clutch again into gear.. ive seen people who know how too drive manual not be able too drive 10 speed and end up getting a restriction on there licenses too only be able too drive automatic semi trucks so i guess i might be better then them at shifting maybe idk but yeah i agree i want a camaro but i cant get an automatic in a car like this just makes no sense and seems not fun..
I love the way it looks! I have always been a fan of the big "musclecars". I think it looks menacing and streamlined. I'll be slightly sad if they discontinue in 2023.
@2:30 4cyn mode works in all modes (tour, sport, track and even snow and ice mode)... tour mode just softens the suspension, the steering and transmission(auto) shift points for better fuel economy and track mode stiffens the suspension, steering and effects the transmission(auto) so if can shift later and makes more aggressive
HUGE Mustang guy, I have 3. But the current Camaro mops the floor with the current Mustang. 2015-2020 Stang is just a V8 fusion. Chevy keeps improving the Camaro. 09-11 was okay..

(This question was raised in the video regarding what gear was the "one-to-one" ratio gear) The "typical" one - to - one gear is 4th gear, on most 5 and 6 - speed manual transmissions, 4th is 1.00 While there are "variances and options" in various ratio's "typically" you will see 5th gear at or "near" 0.80 and 6th gear further reduced to 0.60 As stated, you may find depending on tranny design and desired engine operating range some transmissions offering 5th gear ~ 0.75 with 6th gear as high at 0.50 (Remember, as gear ratio's "numerically get lower" the ratio gets higher, i.e., rear axle ratio's 4.56-1 very "low gearing" 2.73-1 very "high gearing" In transmission ratio's 1st gears with 2.66, 2.88, 2.93, 3.00 are increasingly "lower" gear ratio's 5 & 6 speed gears with ratios of 0.80, 0.75, 0.72, 0.68, 0.60, 0.50 are "higher" final drive ratios
Drive an 03 cobra, you'll learn all about the effort required for a clutch. When I test drove my 2012 GT after driving my 03 (years back) I almost put my foot through the car's floor because the clutch was so light compared to the 03.
The easiest way to explain the clutch is like a bike clutch, you just touch it and snap it First time in mine i did the same thing hit 4th second time thru the gears
These 6 gens are the best looking Camaro's in my opinion next to the 4th gens (mine). But if I was in the market for one, give me a 5th gen 7.0L Z28. That is all. (maybe a '97 LT4 powered 30th anniversary SS) 😉
I’m in my fifties now but used to race my 1968 SS Camaro. It was built right big block 4 speed. I would love to show you young men how to rape that S.O.B. Like you stole it!
If you want to drive the best sports car. Go test drive a Camaro SS 1LE. The suspension and 6 piston Brembo brakes is what you buy this car for. The power to weight ratio is amazing
Question is…do you get the 5.0 with the typewriter tick or the Camaro with the torque converter issues? If you go manuals Chevy wins that one over the cheap China one in the mustang.
I always thought the new Camaro's had a sick interior but the only thing I never understood is why they angle the touch screen down. I drive a R/T and Dodge has got the right idea where the screen is not only upright but actually angled towards the driver as well.
Damien is correct, but it's only slightly angled...barely even noticeable. My guess is that was the best solution that they could come up with given the rest of the dash layout.
Yep...one of the first mods I did...and It was a no-brainer. As a matter of fact, you don't even need the "kit" per se. Just disconnect one plug from the trans. That said, the kit is nice so that water intrusion in the plug(s) is not an issue.
Imma bout to buy one of these tomorrow, gonna be the first manual ive bought. I lve heard from many people this is a good first stick shift to get for how forgiving the clutch and gear box is. Any input on this?
I was thinking the same exact thing so does he like the gearbox better, does it shift faster, does it feel faster, does he like it better or is it equal etc...
@@tmacsauce You're saying Camaro would not be so cheap or the video is saying that? Because if you think cylinder deactivation is a question of cost then scroll up to my previous comment. You don't need cylinder deactivation when you have a 6th gear ratio of 0.5!
back in the day I had a 1998 Z-28, small bock with automatic. Luv'd that car, blazing fast, looked great with the very dark blue (almost black) color. Now just got Mustang 2019 GT with stick shift manual. I am still learning the stang. Too soon to call it regarding chev vs ford. I grew up on Mopars, Plymouth Duster and Cuda. I dont know, my z28 was an amazing car. The view out of the windshield of the]is guy's Camaro seems cramped in the video. How was it in real life?
Touring is just goes back to softer suspension feel while driving and if you have npp and quotes down exhaust the manuals don’t go to 4 cylinders like the auto with active fuel management. And if you don’t want want to shift into 4th gear go a lil faster.
Seriously I feel the same way about my 19 2SS Convertible…shit is SO loud in track mode and pops like a mothafucker…crazy exhaust with the active valves…love this car so so so much
The owner doesn’t understand how skip-shift works and that it can be easily defeated. He also doesn’t know that the manual car doesn’t have cylinder deactivation. Auto only.
@@donniebrooks9131 Those new V6's are nice running cars... honestly you can't go wrong with any of the 6th gens....I have the SS and a FBO 17 Camaro I4 turbo with a Spec stage 1 clutch and aluminum flywheel....badddassss!
Hey Rush, did he have LTH on that car? When he punched it and the decelerated, it sounded like he has headers on. That's why it was loud. No More LTH for me.
2019 CHALLENGER Scat pack widebody 1320 is my favourite car in the 50 K dollar range. I think if i was to chose the Mustang GT or the Camaro SS. I would probably lean toward the Mustang GT. Its all preference . Both cars are almost equal in performance give or take !!!!
Sold my Coyote to get a Sixth Gen Camaro. WAY more power, nicer interior, better handling, just a better vehicle. And the clutch is fine lol. I've had over 10 Mustangs and the sixth Gen beats them all. If you shift like a girl it goes to 4th...that doesn't happen when I drive lol. And what would I get next is a ZL1 not a Mustang again. And I grew up Ford lol 😆
I actually hate the clutch in the camaro and think it's a nightmare to drive. Feels inconsistent and starts grabbing in an awkward spot. It's insanely hard to drive smoothly unless you drive spiritedly. I bought mine with 1k miles on it and I think they were mostly track miles. (worn tires + road rash) so that guy abusing a brand new clutch might be why mine feels like shit
Rolled in a Camaro club from late 90s on. Still own my 95 z28 (with lt4 package..heads and all) and my 2015 ss. My 95 dynoed 365 at the rear (6 speed) and ran a 12.06@114 on drag radials. 2015 dynoed 399 (auto) but only ran a 12.91@117 on the exact same drag radials. The 2015 was almost a half ton heavier than my 95 with me in it (2 week difference). My 95, you feel the power from the drop of the clutch.... My 2015...you get pushed around at first but really only notice the speedometer jumping after first gear. Car feels fat and sluggish compared to my 95.
60 foot time on 95 was 1.896 and on the 15 2.454. I felt the car launched better on the 2015 but that weight held it back over a half second through the 60ft. 2015 pulled speed at about 1/8 mile and was faster down the stretch. My 95 however...screamed "drive me!!" from tree to pit...Skill rewarded me better in the 95...the 2015 is more like a highschool kid's fast car for beginners.
I like the Camaro, but that engine just doesn't rev out like a Coyote. I hope GM will run a DOHC set-up sometime soon because for me the 2v has run its coarse
@@theguy1224 30? Hardly alot. Push a Coyote to it's 7500rmp and there's no comparison. The 2v is a truck engine. GM needs to evolve from a pushrod already, the complete automotive world has moved on decades ago, it's time for GM to step up their program, the C8 will hopefully usher in a new generation of GM V8's. I love the Camaro but it's engine needs to evolve .
@@19coyote5oh9 your fishing. They both do 0-60 in under 4 seconds, and the camaro gets to 80 quicker it looks like. The mustang could be better in the top end or that could be due to it using a gear geared for more high end while the camaro could possibly have a lower geared rear and that is why it launched quicker then the coyote catches it in 3rd. The pushrod is proven and the durability on longevity is proven. Pushrod truck engines like the 4.8 and 5.3 etc gm truck engines typically last longer than the f150 coyote engines and dohc engines in terms of long term reliability and longevity.
19 Coyote 5oh you’re exactly right it’s all torque I tell people my ZL1 is a lot like a Vtwin HD engine where the stang revs out like a sport bike for sure
I love my 2015 mustang gt premium, but only thing I have to complain about is it's a 6spd manual, and it's definitely not as smooth as some other cars I've driven, still wouldn't trade it for nothing
"I've never felt my car pushing me back." Uhhh...what? Then he hasn't really pushed it hard enough, which explains why he was letting off so early in the races in the other video.
When you’re in the driver seat, you have the steering wheel to hold onto so it doesn’t seem like you are being pushed back as much. I’ve driven fast cars, and been in the passenger seat of them, and it is a drastic difference.
Even my dad who owns a 2020 GT500 said comparing the GT to the SS on track the Camaro will win every time out of the big 3. I had my first test drive of a 2022 1SS a couple days ago and fell in love all over again from the first time I ever got to sit in one as a kid, I’ll be a Maro guy to the day I die
I think ill stick with the mustang. In Australia the Camaro is 25 grand more expensive than the mustang because we have to convert the steering to right hand drive. The mustang comes from Michigan already RHD. They're bringing 1le in oz about $145 000. Waaay over priced. Lol
lol...right? I find that to be interesting, as the general opinion is that the Mustang is bit more "livable" than the Camaro. Seems like driving the Mustang is harder (clutch pedal, shifting..steering?). However, the Camaro is easy; clutch pedal isn't soft, but there is no "hardness" to it either and the stick is fast. I will admit that the Mustang might have a bit more wiggle room, but not much. Plus the seats were/are unimpressive and the rest of the cabin is more-or-less utilitarian.
@@entertainmentmachNO1 I most certainly do own a 2018 2SS 1LE Camaro. Have any suggestions of how you’d like me to prove it to you ? Besides it’s only a $52k car it’s not like it’s that big of a deal. Also at 46 years old I’m far from a “kid” .....kid. With that said I will admit it was a stupid comment that I probably shouldn’t have said....was probably drinking at the time lol, Just typical car guy trash talk. My apologies
1st time in a Camaro I did not have any trouble locating the start button by myself. Maybe you should confirm with the owner that you're going to go ahead and start it up you look dumb when you can't locate the start button without somebody's help
Man, I just got a 2SS ‘23 can’t get over the sound of the Camaro guys… it has a special place in my heart forever!

I paid 12 dollars for it got one for my challenger too works great
Wait wtf it makes you skip gears? Why? How come im just now hearing about this i wanna buy one but i dont wanna be forced too skip gears..
Imma bout to buy one of these tomorrow, gonna be the first manual ive bought. I lve heard from many people this is a good first stick shift to get for how forgiving the clutch and gear box is. Any input on this?
Good luck hardest part is hill starts
How's it going bro? I got a v6 manual last year getting an 6 speed ss soon this upcoming week hopefully
The only Camaro I would consider buying is a ZL1.
Better than the corvettes imo
Zl1 is nice, agree!
Same here I'd snag the 1le just bc if I got a maro bc it's so tight in the maros that's the only thing keeping me away
Brian Hill I was a corvette guy and for my first car I got a 2010 base model Camaro and I’m not a Camaro guy and I would won’t the ZL1 1LE
Tell him to pull the fuse and put it in track mode sounds so much better and isn't that much louder at low rpm and start up
No fuse pulling needed. You can customize the turn ratio assist, suspension stiffness (magnetic shocks only) and exhaust note to however you like.
So you didnt tell us what do you think of it? Other then it drives and shifts different then a mustang! I want to know if it feels faster etc
I was thinking the same exact thing so does he like the gearbox better, does it shift faster, does it feel faster, does he like it better or is it equal etc...
i’m a diehard Camaro fan. even though i like how Ford still praises the Mustang. Chevrolet’s giving up lol
Is it really downshifting if the computer is doing it for u??
? Are you talking about rev match?
Wrong!! There is NO cylinder deactivation in the manual trans. Tour mode just changes the suspension and quiets the exhaust.
Thought u could bypass the skipshift once the car rev past 3-3.5k? Had a 96 z and 2011 ss that had it and thats what i did. Did they change?
The manual transmission cars dont have cylinder deactivation the drive modes affect how it drives more so with mag ride
Was wondering upon why he said that lmao. Cuz Camaro would not be so cheap if they were to have technology like that
That's only on the automatic transmission
You don't need cylinder deactivation in a manual because 6th gear has a lower gear ratio than an automatics 8th gear!
@@tmacsauce You're saying Camaro would not be so cheap or the video is saying that? Because if you think cylinder deactivation is a question of cost then scroll up to my previous comment. You don't need cylinder deactivation when you have a 6th gear ratio of 0.5!
back in the day I had a 1998 Z-28, small bock with automatic. Luv'd that car, blazing fast, looked great with the very dark blue (almost black) color. Now just got Mustang 2019 GT with stick shift manual. I am still learning the stang. Too soon to call it regarding chev vs ford. I grew up on Mopars, Plymouth Duster and Cuda. I dont know, my z28 was an amazing car. The view out of the windshield of the]is guy's Camaro seems cramped in the video. How was it in real life?
Touring is just goes back to softer suspension feel while driving and if you have npp and quotes down exhaust the manuals don’t go to 4 cylinders like the auto with active fuel management. And if you don’t want want to shift into 4th gear go a lil faster.
or if you are putting around just double clutch real quick and it tricks the lockout
TR6060's are a whole different game than other manuals
Yep gt500 owners known this since 2007.
Meh..... they’re ok
Tremec is well known for strong and slick manuals. Viper, Camaro, Shelby, etc.
Why?
Sounds good.
Stock exhaust?
2016-2018s are nice but I have a 19 and it has crazy pops with stock exhaust can’t believe it’s legal.
Seriously I feel the same way about my 19 2SS Convertible…shit is SO loud in track mode and pops like a mothafucker…crazy exhaust with the active valves…love this car so so so much
The owner doesn’t understand how skip-shift works and that it can be easily defeated. He also doesn’t know that the manual car doesn’t have cylinder deactivation. Auto only.
You remove the cats get a tune and boom 30whp or so
Just got a 2017 v6 camaro and I'm loving it
should of spent a little more extra money and got a v8
@@donniebrooks9131 Those new V6's are nice running cars... honestly you can't go wrong with any of the 6th gens....I have the SS and a FBO 17 Camaro I4 turbo with a Spec stage 1 clutch and aluminum flywheel....badddassss!
Hey Rush, did he have LTH on that car? When he punched it and the decelerated, it sounded like he has headers on. That's why it was loud. No More LTH for me.
2019 CHALLENGER Scat pack widebody 1320 is my favourite car in the 50 K dollar range. I think if i was to chose the Mustang GT or the Camaro SS. I would probably lean toward the Mustang GT. Its all preference . Both cars are almost equal in performance give or take !!!!
Actually the Camaro destroyed the mustang on the track :)
@@ZwiththeBVeloCamaros are track beasts compared to the Mustang no doubt. Both cars have their charms and quirks
Sold my Coyote to get a Sixth Gen Camaro. WAY more power, nicer interior, better handling, just a better vehicle. And the clutch is fine lol. I've had over 10 Mustangs and the sixth Gen beats them all. If you shift like a girl it goes to 4th...that doesn't happen when I drive lol. And what would I get next is a ZL1 not a Mustang again. And I grew up Ford lol 😆
I’ve been torn on whether to get a GT or SS. It would be a daily and would like some input from the community
He sounded impressed. 👍
You guys mentioned he's running a catless exhaust... What exactly is his entire set up?
Gallagur look at his video from 2 days ago. They talk more about it there...
I actually hate the clutch in the camaro and think it's a nightmare to drive. Feels inconsistent and starts grabbing in an awkward spot. It's insanely hard to drive smoothly unless you drive spiritedly. I bought mine with 1k miles on it and I think they were mostly track miles. (worn tires + road rash) so that guy abusing a brand new clutch might be why mine feels like shit
Rolled in a Camaro club from late 90s on. Still own my 95 z28 (with lt4 package..heads and all) and my 2015 ss. My 95 dynoed 365 at the rear (6 speed) and ran a 12.06@114 on drag radials. 2015 dynoed 399 (auto) but only ran a 12.91@117 on the exact same drag radials. The 2015 was almost a half ton heavier than my 95 with me in it (2 week difference). My 95, you feel the power from the drop of the clutch.... My 2015...you get pushed around at first but really only notice the speedometer jumping after first gear. Car feels fat and sluggish compared to my 95.
Correction 12.61@117
60 foot time on 95 was 1.896 and on the 15 2.454. I felt the car launched better on the 2015 but that weight held it back over a half second through the 60ft. 2015 pulled speed at about 1/8 mile and was faster down the stretch. My 95 however...screamed "drive me!!" from tree to pit...Skill rewarded me better in the 95...the 2015 is more like a highschool kid's fast car for beginners.
Camaro sounds good!
I like the Camaro, but that engine just doesn't rev out like a Coyote.
I hope GM will run a DOHC set-up sometime soon because for me the 2v has run its coarse
You don't need to rev out a GM small block because it has a lot more low end torque compared to the 5.0.
@@theguy1224 30? Hardly alot.
Push a Coyote to it's 7500rmp and there's no comparison.
The 2v is a truck engine.
GM needs to evolve from a pushrod already, the complete automotive world has moved on decades ago, it's time for GM to step up their program, the C8 will hopefully usher in a new generation of GM V8's.
I love the Camaro but it's engine needs to evolve .
@@19coyote5oh9 your fishing. They both do 0-60 in under 4 seconds, and the camaro gets to 80 quicker it looks like. The mustang could be better in the top end or that could be due to it using a gear geared for more high end while the camaro could possibly have a lower geared rear and that is why it launched quicker then the coyote catches it in 3rd. The pushrod is proven and the durability on longevity is proven. Pushrod truck engines like the 4.8 and 5.3 etc gm truck engines typically last longer than the f150 coyote engines and dohc engines in terms of long term reliability and longevity.
19 Coyote 5oh you’re exactly right it’s all torque I tell people my ZL1 is a lot like a Vtwin HD engine where the stang revs out like a sport bike for sure
@@brannonbarakat457 lol, more reliability and better? That's why only GM uses pushrods, huh? Haha
The tremic transmission is way better than the mt82
I love my 2015 mustang gt premium, but only thing I have to complain about is it's a 6spd manual, and it's definitely not as smooth as some other cars I've driven, still wouldn't trade it for nothing
how's the gas mileage? I been thinking about getting one
@@Ali-xb9mc if I'm just cruising I have gotten 24mpg,very impressed with it,but I only run super in it
"I've never felt my car pushing me back." Uhhh...what? Then he hasn't really pushed it hard enough, which explains why he was letting off so early in the races in the other video.
Monday206am i believe it’s cuz he’s in the passenger seat, at least that what he says.
When you’re in the driver seat, you have the steering wheel to hold onto so it doesn’t seem like you are being pushed back as much. I’ve driven fast cars, and been in the passenger seat of them, and it is a drastic difference.
@@makingcash4life Whether he has actually felt it or not, who is to say. Perhaps he just meant to say that he wasn't prepared for it. Whatever.
torque probably has something to do with it also.
Driving and riding in a car are different in more ways than you think
BTW, you're 1:1 gear is 4th like almost every other manual. In an A8, it's 6th.
I really like your mindset, it's similar to mine.
My wife is gonna kill me forever when I buy this car. 🙌🏾
Better than a Mustang imo.
stupid question but was this drive with traction on or off?
that Camaro sounds so good
Great vid once again!
The Camaro will destroy a 5.0 on the track. Gm’s alpha suspension is one of the best you can buy. No wonder ford needed gm’s magride on the gt350.
Cory Adams Stupidest comment I’ve seen.
Even my dad who owns a 2020 GT500 said comparing the GT to the SS on track the Camaro will win every time out of the big 3. I had my first test drive of a 2022 1SS a couple days ago and fell in love all over again from the first time I ever got to sit in one as a kid, I’ll be a Maro guy to the day I die
What are the paddles on the steering wheel if it's a manual? Sorry might be a dumb question
Rev matching. Cheaper to just change the function then remove them and add an extra button somewhere else
Damn where has bro been hope everything is well
What about the NLS feature you didnt try it?
I loved how he blurted the speedometer
I have the anniversary 2017. Love it
What happened to your mustang boroscope results?
I think ill stick with the mustang. In Australia the Camaro is 25 grand more expensive than the mustang because we have to convert the steering to right hand drive. The mustang comes from Michigan already RHD. They're bringing 1le in oz about $145 000. Waaay over priced. Lol
nunzio rose better off just buying one here in the U.S and shipping it home. That’s ridiculous! But hey you guys are in JDM heaven with r34 skylines
Damn, that's 102,000 USD. I could never imagine myself buying a Camaro for that much 😂
hey why don’t you mention the clutch a few more times I’m sure it’ll help you get adjusted to it
lol...right? I find that to be interesting, as the general opinion is that the Mustang is bit more "livable" than the Camaro.
Seems like driving the Mustang is harder (clutch pedal, shifting..steering?). However, the Camaro is easy; clutch pedal isn't soft, but there is no "hardness" to it either and the stick is fast. I will admit that the Mustang might have a bit more wiggle room, but not much. Plus the seats were/are unimpressive and the rest of the cabin is more-or-less utilitarian.
damn what does that homie do for a living?? id like to get in the same work line as him! good for him! great videos my dude.
Yeah Camaro guy needs to learn how to drive, I’ve watched all 3 videos and he’s not representing Camaro’s well
agreed. he is not a driver, likes the sound.
Why? Cuz he’s not speeding like a mad man? Lol
He can drive how he wants kid... he’s not trying to represent a car you probably don’t even own
@@entertainmentmachNO1 I most certainly do own a 2018 2SS 1LE Camaro. Have any suggestions of how you’d like me to prove it to you ? Besides it’s only a $52k car it’s not like it’s that big of a deal. Also at 46 years old I’m far from a “kid” .....kid. With that said I will admit it was a stupid comment that I probably shouldn’t have said....was probably drinking at the time lol, Just typical car guy trash talk. My apologies
Nice of you to blur out his speedometer
This looked like orange county and i was right 5:07
I was thinking the same..
I just sold my manual SS after almost 2 years and now I miss it !!
Took me a second to figure out why he blurred the speedometer. Smart
Where's the one where Jose is driving your car?
Wow, thanks for all the ads.
1st time in a Camaro I did not have any trouble locating the start button by myself. Maybe you should confirm with the owner that you're going to go ahead and start it up you look dumb when you can't locate the start button without somebody's help
How come there were no sombreros on the top of 🚶 heads
Not sure why you adjusted the rear view mirror, the back window is minuscule. Also not sure why it even has a rear view mirror.
So you can just let the clutch out without giving any gas????? Is this true?
Kind of true. The camaro has so much torque that you pretty much apply little to no gas. Of course you have to slip the clutch a little longer.
My 07 charger has no speed pickup but has acceleration but only when at a stop
How can i fix this
Steering wheel looks rather cheap, I'm sure it feels nice but it looks very base
Seven Ηaze i like it, it has a retro look to it
from 2010
