I used to own a 2016 Camaro ss and it’s so capable on the track. A 2.0 Camaro is actually a bit more nimble due to the lighter front end. Lots of ppl bashing on 2.0 Camaro but I think it’s a great car.
It is a great car with a manual. I would have kept it in that case. I just couldn't get over the automatic part. Oh and the fact I couldn't upgrade the factory stereo.
To me, it's one of the best looking cars ever made. I'll be getting a 2016-2018 white with black wheels. 4 or 6 cylinder doesn't matter. Both get pussy
Ray, OMG I did the exact same thing. I traded my 2015 v6 Mustang for the 2.0l 2017 Camaro RS. Ironically in the exact same color and trim as yours. lol Overall, I agree with your video. Both cars were good but if you like to drive a car that has a world class chassis and handles like it is on rails, the 2016 and newer Camaro's are the best bang for the buck out there. Loving my Camaro.
This is an interesting trade! I used to have a 2.0T and I loved the initial feel of the torque kicking in, but felt the engine was not very linear in power delivery and seemed weak down low and up high. I always thought the V6 would fix the down low/up high torque issues, while compromising on the torque delivery/"push you back in your seat" experience. Glad to see you love the 2.0T. I traded my 2.0T in for an SS, but I do love the value that the 2.0T offers. I think it's one of the best values for any pony/sports car in the market right now.
EXOthermicNYC Agree...it wasn't by...choice it was the cost of ownership...bad luck with that car. Still your correct I should have gotten the V6 and I do regret it now.
Still, I think you have a sweet ride. That 2.0T is no joke. It has the least weight out of all of the Camaro options, so it is very light on its feet and more "quick" than it is fast. It gets up and goes, but loses steam on the top end. But that's essentially perfect for highway/road conditions. Enjoy the car!
that's one sweet sweet ride man. these days people can't be appreciative of the great things they get, it's a looker with 31 mpg, 275 hp with power steering, electric windows, a/c for 30k$... what people want more?
You won't be disappointed in the handling or ride of the car. It depends on you but I would not skimp on the comfort features. Like the ambient lighting and better stereo. I should not have skipped on that because it transforms the interior.
I recently got a 2019 Camaro RS LT1 in Riverside Blue Metallic on which I added Rally Stripes on the hood, these cars are just gorgeous and at least up here in Montreal, the Camaro is much less common than a Mustang so that just makes it a touch more special to me
@@lsjionredlinesupercharged2049I don’t mean anything I just see you on those type of video😂 keep it up, I’ve got Camaro too, Borla EXHUST, duels exhaust, removed the single so the engine breath better..
Crazy thing is I did the same thing! Someone hit me and totaled my V6 2015 mustang, and I never ever thought I buy a camaro, but I did! Lol I bought a 2018 camaro 2.0t in hyper blue, and I must say I’ve had so much fun in this car, most people complain about the visibility but honestly after a week I fell in love with the deep “tank” feel of the car, i had my mustang for three years and it was definitely a car that people stared at but I find this car to be so much more exciting especially with its defined curves! Great choice!
Just bought a new 2021 2.0 manual, was going to get a v6 but got a great deal on it, about the price of a corolla. I have a loud vette and wanted a quieter comfortable daily. Plenty quick and fun to drive. the people that bash these have never driven one.
@JayT_for3 exactly, they get bashed online but none of my car friends have ever said anything but good things about it. With the price of gas I like it even better. I actually just sold my Vette, like my Camaro more.
@@theguy4615 The 4 banger Camaro is a serious sports car...I own a FBO 17 Camaro I4 turbo with a Spec stage 1 clutch and aluminum flywheel and she is nasty! I also own a 17 Camaro SS both manual...both awesome cars.
That's cool I have been checking out your vids. I just found out about a performance Easter egg on the Camaro automatic. I m going to test it further and post about it.
If you bought a bright colored Camaro, trust me it would turn more heads than a mustang in a similarly bright Camaro. The general conscience is the 2016-18 Camaros have the best styling in the current gen mustang and camaro.
I've had Camaros in the past. My first was a 1969. My last was a 2000 V6 auto. My last Mustang was a 2016, V6 auto. I am starting to look at Camaros again. Yes, I know about the very small trunk opening. But I like the 4 cyl turbo with a 6 speed. Lets see what happens?
I hear you but I had to absorb 2K from my Mustang(accident) so there are reason why people do what they do. I still could have done it but I know I might trade it in so I didn't want to go crazy.
I upgraded from my 2002 Mustang GT to 2019 V6 Camaro. My third Camaro and it's the best Camaro. And way better than my old V8 Mustang GT. And the Camaro turns more heads at Whole Foods than the Mustang.
I recently took a new 2019 Camaro I-4 for a test drive and I was blown away how quick and nimble it was. It did remind me of my old BMW 325i I owned a few years ago and now I am seriously thinking of buying one but with the V6. I knew about the lack of visibility but I got used to it quickly. BTW, how's your Camaro holding up these days if you haven't yet sold it ....?
Buy the V6. Trust me buy the V6. I like the 4 and yes it is 2004-08 V8 fast but it doesn't sound like a Camaro. I do still have the car and want to do an update video but I'm so busy. The car is still tight and the transmission has gotten better. Shockingly service is cheap at the dealer and they have good customer service. I'm at 15k miles now.
Yo what is that color called and did you get the 9 speaker sound system or are you rocking the six speaker? And if you got the six speaker system how is it that is the main thing for me if imma get it I'll want to know if I should opt for the nine speaker Bose system from the factory
It’s always hilarious to me when people talk about liking mustangs, and you could literally not pay me to drive one🤣 I don’t like the interior, I don’t like the exterior and I’m literally never seen one that I could say oh, that’s a nice car, I just genuinely do not like that car
I hear you but it has been a best selling car in it's segment in NA and even in Europe so there is something there that is a draw for people. The great thing is we have choices so everyone can be happy.
I'm getting ready to buy a 2017 manual camero with the bembro brakes only 15000 mi are the run flats worth keeping if i need to ( hopefully not lol) replace?
Well I got rid of mine when I purchased aftermarket wheels. Just know you will need a tow if you get a flat. I had two tow services so I rolled the dice.
@@rueben44 my tires are switching to regular with a slime repair kit to play safe lol I've heard nightmare things of the short life span of those run flat tires.
Get a set of Continental Extreme Contacts all seasons or Yokohama premium GT tires...both these tires provides ton of grip and cornering performance over the run flats.
Bought a 2019. Camero instead 11, 800 mi 🤟🤟2.0 its really cool love it but ni Xm ?? Not sure what to do about this but maybe run my mobile Bluetooth through this ughhh

The 2.0 turbo can be tuned, just give a call to Trifecta Tune, it cost $400 takes 20 minutes to download and adds 50 horsepower to the 2.0
My only issue with the 2.0 was the sound. I just couldn't like with it.....with an auto.
@@rueben44 american thunder exhausts make it better to listen to imo
@@rueben44 You got rid of it, huh?
It’s a manual as well, just use your paddle shifters like me! It’s so much fun
They shift to slow....to me.
My wife who is 64,got this car and I love it. Fun to drive

@@donavan4387 Congrats man! When are the video's coming?
RayJ-HT As soon as the dealership drops the Camaro off I’ll upload some videos 💪🏾
2.0 bro a few bolt ons and you can smoke the v6
Most shops prefer the sound of the 2.0 aftee exhaust work.
Nice to here someone so appreciative. Thanks I needed to here that.
How worried r u with the longevity?
Good choice brother. Love my 17 2.0 Manual.. once you mod it you gonna love it
Thanks. I love the features and it is quite a bit faster than the V6. I think once I get my exhaust I will feel better.

Of course it's a high end chassis - it's based off the Cadillac ATS. It blows the pony away.
Just bought one a few weeks ago. I love it.
People don't realize what great drivers cars they are. They box well above their class.

Yep just bought a 18 2.0 1LS 6 speed. First camaro since 2001. All I can say is GM has Come a loooong way.
Dude you did the right thing. Every day I am sick I don't have a manual....everyday.
You should've got the V6, it runs in regular and has lots of power and the sound it's amazing, I drive a 2017.
Jorge Alejandro I agree
Well, the 2.0T can be tuned to perform better than the 3.6. Overall, all gen 6 camaros are brilliant.
Actually they take me back to the late 80's Euros that I used to love. Great brakes and you can hardly get the tail to kick out because of the grip.
I did great cat v6 rumble and no lag...it was disigned as a v6...so drives like it's on rails...fun fun...
Jorge Alejandro Wait! The V6 runs on regular gas .
Good choice bro I have a Camaro RS V6 but with Borla exhaust and K n N cold air intake and I love it so much .Camaro is a head turning Muscle car.
Bigger turbo.. game 🤯 over!!
Congratulations man!
I’m dyno tuned on e85 and I can now run heads up with the ss.

Nice
Love light weight
And small price

I like. Still a manual should have been by real choice and I slipped in that regard. I don't like the automatic in this car.
I have this car in manual . no Dual transmission no paddle shifters
👍 smart guy what I should have done

But I like the 4 cyl turbo with a 6 speed.
Lets see what happens?
A manual is a must!
Totally agree with you on your assessment

Bro gotta have that stick
Facts
Should have splurged for v6 lgx...well worth it...too late no lag not overheating turbo...

coz i have the one too and im lovin it so much
To be honest nothing is going to please your ear. Still the expensive exhaust sound no better than a muffler delete.
so it means just do a muffler delete for it to make it a little better sound??
bout magnaflows?
@@marcwilsonmendoza696 Nope. Nothing really sounds good on the 2.0 sadly. Muffler delete is about as good as it gets.
