Most 5th gen RS’ models 🎉that are genuinely high mileage or “clapped out”, at least with a clean title; those still rake in anywhere from under $10k to maybe $18k tops. And the ZL1 and Z28 (obviously) are still appreciating in value. I personally have a 2010 2SS LS3 coupe, and I would’ve personally opted for a 2013, for the 10-13 chassis and 14-15 goodies.

I do like Jay's videos much more when he is by himself. I think we get more honesty. It's hard to say anything negative when a company exec is sitting next to you.
I bought one and i love it! if someone ever did something to my car i would have to beat the crap out of them! when you buy one of these you become incredibly attached to it
My dad finally bought one just today after soo many years thinking about it(mostly because of my mom lol) 2ss convertible(auto) with a ZL1 bodykit and a exhaust, pretty awesome car.( the rear seats are usable I fit behind them 5'10 a bit cramped but better than a 3rd row seat of LX570 lmao). My dad finally is going to have the fun he deserves after so much years of hardwork and beating cancer.
I bought my 2010 4 years ago and LOVE IT! Had to wait till I could afford one. I fell in love with it immediately and will keep it until I can’t drive anymore. It is a real beast when you floor it, yet it can still deliver 25-27 MPG on a trip. It is comfortable and really gets the compliments !
Am I the only one who prefers hard 'cheap' plastic, vinyl, and rubber to leather wrapped dashes, velour or leather seats, and carpet that is just a continuous dirt magnet?

had one a few years ago. loved it so much i'm buying another one next week. a simply awesome car for very little money nowadays. collectable car in the future i predict..2010 to 2013 models anyway
2022 and a clean 2010 low miles is still high 20s. Of course all used cars are ridiculously priced now. Trade in value on my 19 trailboss is 8g more than I paid for it brand new.
Thanks Jay! We engineers love it when you put the bean-counters in their place! The price tag runs a miserable second or third place to inspiration, especially when it's still affordable!
I bleed chevy .. I even worked for them twice . Even flew to Disney world for the early release Display of the 2010 camaro I've had corvettes and camaros all my life I could have any car I wanted with in reason so about 6 months ago I found a 2010 camaro ss rs red jewel tintcoat With everything you could get on it new And I love it !! Turns out it's the most fun car I've ever owned ! I love it !! Now saving for a ZL1
Im a Mustang driver, and currently own a boosted stroked 2007 Mustang GT, and wanted a 2015+ coyote as my daily... but these early gen 5 camaros are growing on me so much! A 2010 or 2011 might just be my new to me daily toy with just a CAI, long tubes, and flowmaster american thunder exhaust 🔥
Yeah...pity about that. Your Detroit beancounters are about to destroy 90 years of Australian car manufacturing in one fell swoop. GM should NEVER have been allowed to buy Holden in the 1930s. You sucked us dry...used our talent to improve your products and then dumped Holden as soon as the fire grew a bit hot. In the GFC profits from Holden helped keep GM afloat. So you keep your Chevy. I will never buy a US-sourced, made or designed vehicle ever again and many Aussies feel the same way.
+tripsadelica and by the way, the 6th Gen is built on the alpha platform and is lighter and faster with another American v8 and chassis... Overall upgrade... So none of this matters now...
It matters to me. It matters to my fellow Australians. I will never buy another GM, Ford or any other US vehicle again and I'm not alone here. GM will rue the day it screwed us over. Its sales here will tank, big time. Ford is already slumping badly in local sales. From now on I will buy Japanese or European.
gm doesn't build this car for their Australian sales. its american muscle. plenty of sales here and not even a fraction of its sales come from Asia and Oceania.
The Camero is actually Australian underneath. It is in the uk a Vauxhall VXR Monaro. In Australia, It is the Holdon Commodore HSV. In the USA, it is the Chevy Camero. Under neath it is all identical, just body is different.
Great Car .Great review. I’m a freelance automotive writer and was lucky enough to get a black 2010 SS w/6speed manual to evaluate in early 09.
