By the way if anyone was wondering about the performance exhaust on the v6, it sounds GOOD. And GM was not afraid to make it loud
I just saw a vid by TestDrivenTV, comparing Ecoboost Mustang Vs 2LT V6. Camaro had the dual-mode perf exhaust. I don't know which I like better My 2SS has perf exhaust, and I LOVE that - great farts on upshifts and burbles on downshifts/throttle lifts. Amazing for a factory stock exhaust...
not as aggressive?? I think the 2016 camaro is one of the most aggressive looking cars out there and i love it haha
Anthony Ruiz compared to the ss it's not as aggressive
Anthony Ruiz u so Right
I agree real sharp car! interior is beautiful too in this year
Anthony Ruiz i like the interior of this car
Compared to the 5th gen its looks less muscular
I'm a big challenger guy but this car is just beautiful. Great job on this new camero. Looks great.

3400 lbs now thats crazy light weight for a camaro, plus 335 HP
it's not 3400, more like 3700
the V8 is not even 3700 lbs

Bro facts
I just purchased the 2016 2LT RS and I love it. I wouldn't be able to control myself if I got a V8. But I'm very pleased with my decision!
U still got it
Was it reliable?
@@JAYBud88 It is and still is very reliable. It hasn't failed me once.
@@beverlyarriaga5355 Nice
@@beverlyarriaga5355 You got the same one in the video?
since tranformers, i love the camaro
JUST MONIKA same
JUST MONIKA literally me too.
Ik its all late but same
Been driving a 2011 v6 model for 6 years, visibility is fine. As everyone says at first its like wtf. But after a week or 2 if you were properly taught how to drive and rules of the road, its sufficient and you can see. But take into account because you can see dosent make it where everyone else can see you. Somebody blindly pulled out in front of me totaled my car was a 19yr old kid. In my 20+ years have never been in a accident. Be safe out there.
Will definitely been getting another Camaro, its gonna be either 2016-2018
I like the v6. I know the v8 sounds better and is a lot faster.. but 335 hp is AMAZING. Plus its a bit more fuil efecient and easier to insure. Cant wait to pick one up
I rented a 18’ v6 camaro convertible auto and 18’ ecoboost stang convertible auto recently. The stang was nicer and more comfortable but the camaro was WAY more fun to drive imo. Visibility wasn’t an issue with the vert. Best sounding v6 I’ve heard too.
For a V6 that sounds pretty good. I’m shook.
And that's without the $900 dual-mode perf exhaust. I have it on my SS and people can't believe it's stock!
Wait? Why am I watching this?
I’m broke.
SRT8 _HEMI because you wet your bed to this car
Once you start dreaming things start shifting. You might have one one day.
Kris I did start dreaming now I have a 2008 Honda CR-V it kinda worked thanks stranger (well I did you advice before you posted but it’s good advice)
@@furretthefuzzynoodle3896
Here you go. Living proof that dreaming and acting upon your dreams actually works.
Kris it’s good advice even though people hear it quite a bit it’s always good to hear it again because it makes you look ahead and everyone needs a refresher!
Wow. I was going to go with an SS, but, I think this might be a better option. I'm really impressed with this V6. It is still really fast and sounds really nice for a 6. Under 6 seconds is damn impressive, and the fuel savings and insurance costs would also be substantial on top of the sticker being lower. I'm just really impressed with this car. Thanks for reviewing this!
+tlv156 same as stang
v6 all the way
Don't be cheap. You'll never be happy with a v6 in this car. I should know I just got rid of mine.
+tlv156 5.1 seconds to be exact.
+tlv156 ive drove all of them with all the gearbox combination...and among all of the options that you can possibly have (yes including both V8 options), my very favorite, the one i would put my money into, would be the V6 with a manual box...why? its lighter, the sound is IMO even better then the V8 (i love V6 sounds), and its usable on the streets...on the V8 you can open up first gear all the way, and then somewhere in second gear you will have to cut the gas before you go to prison, let alone top gear....the V6 still packs a hell of a punch when you let it rev all the way to 7k and you can enjoy it more before you're going too fast...and its cheaper to buy, cheaper to maintain and insure...just be sure to get the manual...because in my opinion the auto-box works the worst with the V6 engine...its good on the V8 and on the inline 4, but somehow it doesn't seem (to me) to works as good on the V6...manual tho is the opposite: the best manual is on the V6 (and the worst manual is on the V8, which seem to not enjoy second gear much)...i loved it..would buy it in a heart beat...even the inline 4 was surprisingly good i have to say...but the V6 won my heart by far..
Fantastic sound from the 6! The more I see these the better they look lol waiting for the details on the ZL1...
+Haris Qureshi Ehmn... How do you know the GT350 is better yet? The ZL1 isn't even out yet.
+The Tameless Creeper is it coming out 2018
+kelvin oliver 2018 ctfu theres already zl1 press cars no way its coming out in 2018
+Haris Qureshi .
Trevor Jones when is it coming
This is my dreamcar.
If you haven't gotten it yet, work your ass off brother and it's yours. It's right there in the affordable range. Luxury at a budget price!
TheAnonymousDez good comment, Needed this ! 👌🏼
I agree, I wish I was more into cars when I was in the market for one. I just assumed that the best car I could get was a Civic so I ended up getting a cheap Chevy spark lmao. Finding out that I could have gotten this monster for only 15k more makes me a little sad. Dunno why I thought these types of cars were 50k.
are you kidding this is your dream car??
Yeah, some people are more smart and modest, and don't say they want a lambo like every other 12 year old that shoots too far.
I finally was able to own my very own Camaro 2015 RS and I really gotta say, Chevy you didn't let me down. This transport/thrill/joy/fun/ device on wheels is by far the greatest. Believe you me, by far the most satisfying ride I've ever driven. Did I tell you how awesome the Camaro looks, feels, handles. Yep I know only a V6, well I really need to stay alive and ticket free. The ticket part, well none yet, but this ride will put you in jail. I actually need to stay out of. I'm just saying I love my car. When you see one going down the rode just know yes it is all that and more..
This thing has the *SAME* 0-60 time (with the automatic) as the 2016 Base Charger R/T...
With a V8
Yes the SS is great and all but honestly this Camaro has more than enough power to have fun with on the street
I just got my new 2016 camaro r/s two days ago, and I love it. Your review just solidifies my decision. It's all you say it is -spot on. Thanks for your review.
Just purchased my RS last month and I love it! I was considering the Mustang & Challenger but I'm happy with my decision. I wanted the SS but didn't want to pay nearly 50k. However, the v6 has good power (335hp) and superb fuel economy (avg 25). Great handling. I agree about the dead travel while throttling. I thought I was tripping at first lol but I'm getting used to it. Yes, the visibility and rear leg room could be better. Overall, it's a great ride.
Good choice I also got a v6 RS. also agree about the dead travel while throttling. What color did you get? I got summit white with silver rally stripes but it was a hard choice as the hyper blue metallic looks dope.
are you having issues with blind spot? this is holding me back and just get a challenger
Yes the visibility sucks
Edryan get a challenger lol it has blind spots but not as bad as these
the visibility doesn't sucks... not if u get the 2LT RS with the blind spots indicator in the rear view mirrors... i had a 2013 mustang gt and it was a smooth ride... but my v6 camaro its just as sweet...
Love when he says, "well we're at a stop sign and we have to stop and then accelerate."
I got a 2015 RS convertible a little over a year ago. I really love it as a second fun car. Not interested in the V-8 as this is more fun at the speeds I typically drive. Also the price was really great. You do get used to the visibility issue pretty quickly, and of course with the top down it is totally not a factor. I had a couple Mach 1's back in the late 60's and didn't want another Mustang, although they are much better than they used to be. The quick acceleration of the Camaro is addictive and well suited to my driving.
Traded my 2012 V6 for one of these last weekend. I expected some minor improvements but not the completely different car it's become. Punchy off the line, louder engine/exhaust, better ride and much better maneuverability at speed and around town.
Blizofoz45 nice ! im planning on down the same trading in my 2012 v6 for a new model .. would you recommend doing it ?
@@SamoanRaider thinking about doing it too
I did the same thing yesterday, and what a difference!
Awesome design for the new gen Camaro I personally like the exterior as well the interiors of this car. Huge thanks for the presentation Matt!
I have a 2014 Camaro 2LS V6 and it really does put a smile on my face. People may underestimate it, but it's petty fast. Even I underestimated it 😁
nice!! GM really did a good job with these new camaros
I bought one no regrets.
Was it reliable/ how was the gas mileage?
The gas mileage is great, I have the V6 and with the 30,000 miles I put on it all I did was get oil changes and it’s been very reliable
I made my mind up I'm getting a fucking camaro!!!!
I just got this dream car of mine a few days ago and I LOVE IT!! 1LT/RS❤️
Adrianna Rose so lucky!!! congratulation, so proud of you.
Adrianna Rose I have had mine since September and I LOVE it. I have so much fun cornering and it sounds awesome!!!
Adrianna Rose What a lucky Camaro.
lmao a little bit late but i just noticed that we're both following each other on instagram. Camaro RS owner right here
It’s going to be a year for mine RS. I’m loving it.
This 2016 camaro V6 spec sheet looks good, hard to argue with it. Relatively light at 3400, 5.1 0-60, 335hp, epic growl. Really like the package.
I would not be able to NOT go V8, that's the obvious answer to me, if I couldn't get it, I wouldn't buy the camaro. Though I definitely see a nice place in the market for this vehicle, it's a pretty awesome package and a force to be reckoned with. A skilled driver at the track can still wreck havoc with one of these.
You are the only car reviewer I watch. The giggles are a good measure on whether the car is worth getting or not 😌
hahah
You ought to check out his hilight vids. You should see his reaction to flooring a ZL1, or Yenko...
"What's up everybody, subuhdubx fan here..." LOL
Haha, I noticed that too in some of his videos.
lol
+bikephil funniest comment ever!
ahahahaha
Sooberdooberxfan
Just got mine today!:) I dont have any issue with the visibility tbh, the only thing i need to get used to is the gas pedal since it comes out of the floor and seems to be dull for the first little push
Petyton S: search RUclips for "Vintesse" Mine will be here Today. Super easy install, $180 - no more dull, unless you want it...
Thanks for your review. I ended up getting a hold of a 2016 2LT with GM performance upgrades (Brakes, suspension, exhaust, rims and tires) and I am not disappointed! its a mid 13 second car and drives fantastic. And 350 lbs lighter than my older 2012 RS. It's not any faster than the 2012, but it is much quicker getting there....very fun car....and curb weight is 3415 btw.
I absolutely love, love,love this beautiful 2016RS.I love the way it handles and love that sound when you put your foot in it! I'm proud to say I am 60 however when I drive this car I'm 16 again. When I drove it off the lot the younger salesperson couldn't believe I not only bought this beauty but I left a little rubber on the lot for them to remember me by!
I just purchased the 2016 Camaro V6 RS and I am in Love!!!
I must have watched this video 7 times.This year I bought a Black 2017 RS its fast it gives you lost of power/it stays on the road very well/its amazing.Thank you !
"Let's turn on this backroad here and see how it does shall we?" *HUGE GRIN* follows. I can truly see how much you enjoy it sir.
It brought me joy to see how excited he was lmao
Crazy how this sounds similar to a V8. I own a 2018 SS and I'm surprised by how this RS sounds. I had a RS 2016 before I traded it in for my SS I have currently and it amazes me how this RS is much more different than mine. The whole interior, the dashboard and the lighting effects.
Kind of confused but great video nonetheless. Love watching them!
HOLY. CRAP. That is one good sounding V6... 👏👍
I'm getting this car soon I can't wait!!!
My goodness Chevrolet have been generous to you lately, and damn that thing sounds epic considering its a factory exhaust as well :D Also, is it just me or did I hear someone talking at 9:24. Anyway Matt, great review as usual and happy new year. All the best for 2016!
+Ethan Gee Haha thanks! Happy new year to you as well! And yeah that was my wife trying to be funny at 9:24 haha.
Looking into fully owning one of these and like twin turbo it. 2lt trim is lowkey underrated and stacked.
Had this car for over a year, although I'd really like an '18 mustang with magnaride my car brings me so much joy for being my DD and weekend warrior. (I wouldnt get rid of it even if I would buy the '18 stang.)
That exhaust sounds good with headphones. This car has some soul, I would take it as is
Ah yes, the V6 Camaro. Quite the abundance of these and V6 Mustangs with straight pipes at my college campus lol.
8:08 when he gets excited - so adorable!
Dude! Seriously, you got the best job in the world. Well done!
I bought a hyper blue 2016 RS I love it, it is faster than older v8s on the road and sounds fantastic. a very nimble handler, visibility is not a issue for me. also I average 26mpg I have gotten up to 32 on the highway. it takes regular gas and gets 335 hp. great car. my only gripes are the Gen 5 has a bigger back seat. this car also has no storage space in the cabin. the cabin is nice though, 1lt trim is still very nice. the seats are cumfy. it has all the bells and whistles including push button start and backup camera. great car.
james loehr which older v8s?
Ian Palencia gen 4 camaros. older mustangs up to like 2007. challenger RT a modern v8 5.7 is slightly slower also than the new v6. even the fastest gen 4 30th anniversary had max 330hp. this puts out 335 and is lighter.
A Ghost was using the seatbelt in the back seat lol....Great job on the review of the Camaro v6 man! Put a little Boost on it that ride and then your really moving!
Not a car enthusiast at all- In fact I ride my bicycle more than drive but can't understand the visibility issue at all. I admit that its hard to see on your shoulder but then again I have enough power to accelerate ahead and see past blind spots and turn safely. I am a very happy first time buyer tho!
Happy new year, Matt and Mrs Matt, thanks for a great year of reviews and looking forward to an even better 2016
Hmm I'm not usually big on American car interiors outside the real premium brands but it looks like Chev
has really stepped up their game.
I'm considering the V6 manual with dual mode exhaust. Why? It's lighter, handles better, sounds great, costs less, and still has plenty of power for the street. When I was a kid you had to buy an RX7, 300ZX twin turbo, or a Supra to get this kind of performance. This thing would eat my 1998 Z28 for lunch. Today it's almost too easy.
i fixed that dead peddle situation with a cold air intake and a upgraded exhaust and now the response time is literally night and day better.
I fixed the situation on my SS with CAI and Vitesse throttle controller. Could have skipped the CAI, and just gone with a Green Filter drop-in, if I had done the Vitesse first. But, the K&N Typhoon looks and sounds good, maybe adds some power...
Great job as always! Can you please do a review on the 2015 gmc sierra denali awd, and aslo the new models silverados/sierras?
hell no
Its not up to you buddy:)
victor dorado I guarantee you won't get that review
Maybe, maybe not who knows
Funny you mention those...stay tuned next week :)
Here i am, 4 years later and i still have my 2018 V6. Still love it.
love the new 6th gen body and interior... thinking this is gonna be my new car soon :D
I love my RS ! The manual transmission is so much fun.
I already smoked my friend in his 2015 V6 Mustang and some random dude in his ecoboost😂
Le Mans what engine do you have?
I have the 2017 V6 RS 1LT and I actually had an interesting morning where this guy in a V6 Mustang was just totally determined to show off against me. After he suffered two defeats, he made sure he was next to me at the next light and he yells out:
"What engine do you have in that thing? It does pretty good!"
I've had lots of little incidents since that and it's a very mixed bag of results. I can beat *most* cars, but by that I mean most of the morons on the road driving whatever and just aching to race a Camaro. I've been beaten quite a bit too, but the very most were pretty obviously going to win going into it. Some were sleepers, little beaters that had obviously been picked as sleepers and/or worked on. There are two thoughts on all of this: 1) If you want to be a road killer, then you really need to aim a little higher. Consider the SS, ZL1 (Omg they are amazing) or consider something besides a Camaro. 2) If you just want a car that gets looks, has pretty aggressive performance, great handling, and feels fun to drive, then you can do a lot worse. Oh, there's a 3.... 3) If you don't want to be challenged, don't want to be sitting on the pavement, want an actual backseat, and don't want to be noticed, then you should look elsewhere.
I'm a more #2 kind of guy. I love the way it handles when driven properly, I like being able to manipulate traffic, love the occasional kill, and I forgive it for not being a supercar. She's my good girl. :-)
@Nestor Tetos Uh... Which part? The V6 Mustang? It's a well known fact that they underperform, older ones anyway. We both know there could have been all kinds of other reasons why I kept beating him. I don't lie about my losses, especially on a throwaway place like the RUclips comment section. It's on the road that matters. Here is just for disseminating info.
@Nestor Tetos Well, I see *you* having a big problem with it, clearly. Your problem with *my* car is only my problem when you decide to come after me looking for trouble over NOTHING. Apology accepted, but don't wear it out.
2017 Chevrolet Camaro V6 (Manual) Compare Car 0-60 mph 5.0 | Quarter mile 13.7
2013 Ford Mustang V-6 Premium Compare Car 0-60 mph 5.1 | Quarter mile 13.7
2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost (Manual) Compare Car 0-60 mph 5.5 | Quarter mile 14.3
2015 Ford Mustang Convertible EcoBoost Compare Car 0-60 mph 6.0 | Quarter mile 14.4
2016 Ford Mustang V6 Compare Car 0-60 mph 5.3
Mine's the 8-speed automatic 3.6L V6, so mayyyyybe a shade slower than the manual listed above, though not by much. Data courtesy of zeroto60times.com. According to all this, it depends heavily on the model year. The 2013 V-6 Mustang "Premium" (whatever that is) would be so close that it would be down to vehicle condition and driver skill. The others would have a slight but significant disadvantage according to the statistics, enough to just edge them out in a drag race when purely stock.
For my own experience, I've attempted to 0-60 my car with a timestamped camera after much mucking around with my Vitesse throttle controller, and the closest I could pin it down to was about 5.1 seconds, which is well in line with manufacturers specs. Working with an addon like the Vitesse is nearly an artform - too much and the traction nanny will kill your launch, and too little and you have to ram your foot to china to get the car to get off it's ass. Just right, and the ass will sink just a little on launch and the tires will jussst start to sing; that's the sweet spot.
The pre refreshed 5th generation will always look the best in regards to the modern Camaros.
Great review, went out and bought myself one.
It sure looks a lot better, despite only being a slight update, it makes a huge difference.
Slight? They changed to Caddy ATS chassis, every body panel is new, shrunk in every direction. Lost hundreds of pounds, added power - then, there's the interior...
This looks so great, can't stop saying that enough. It sounds so great too! Good job GM! I defiantly would prefer the V8.(:
I own the 2015 camaro version v6 and hate to say it but it pulls very well and growls pretty good it takes a bit of massaging to get the engine to wake up but once it does its fun next car rs 2017 camaro😎
Best intro music since SLICED BREAD!!!
Anybody no what the intro music is from? I like a lot too.
just got a 2017 Camaro rs redline edition and I LOVE IT
11:27 Red sus, He faking task.
On a serious note I’m planning on getting a camaro (v6) 2016-2018 so thank u for ur review, this was helpful.
I'm surprised they made that V6 sound good.
that's not an easy thing to do.
also, the dead spot on the gas pedal is put there on purpose to improve gas mileage.
you can actually tune that out with HP tuners
The tuners void warranty. I got a Vitesse throttle controller. Plug & play behind the gas pedal. Feels like a cable throttle now...
You're reviews are great, keep up the good work!
How fun would you rate this camaro, or the SS, compared to a WRX or STI!?
Francisco
its not about if you can afford a v8 but rather which is,more practical. ive owned 2 SS and got a 2016 convertible v6 camaro because i was just so tired of being in stop and go traffic and watching my needle move while just sitting there. im so happy with my wheels, im a camaro guy and Chevy knocked this out the park. if i was on more open road or hit the track often i would have an ss for sure but since i dont v6 convertible is the way to go.
I concur. For 10 years I had a G37S and it was a great dual-purpose car - equally at home in bumper to bumper rush-hour traffic as well as carving back roads, and quicker than many V8s. But, now that I'm retired, and can choose when/where I drive, I went to my bucket list and bought a big, honkin' V8.
Plan A was to buy an AWD G37/Q60 with sport/tech pkgs and add a ProCharger. Down side of this would be the down-time and cost.
Plan B was to use my $5K in GM credit card rewards to buy a new 2018 - 140 miles away in Md) that had been reduced because it lacked a sunroof - got screwed in both directions (dealer raised price, card rewards expired) and it was grey, so...
Plan C was to drive another 150 miles to VA, and buy a used 2017, in Hyper-blue, with my must-have options - Dual-mode exhaust, nav (both common) magnetic ride ctl (rare) and a sunroof (better to have than not) with 16K miles. Bought that one and saved 14K over a new one...
I have the same car idk why I’m watching this 😂😂😂
Ahh the first vid i ever seen from matt. I still say this is the best looking camaro just wish it has little room & better visibility
Now That is a nice camaro. Sounds darn nice. That v6 sounds good.
My brother got this car and i gotta say it's impressive.. We haven't gotten on it but it runs smooth!
The 2016 6 banger Camaro is doing it way better than the 2016 v6 Mustang.
+Casanova 87 Because Ford is phasing out the V6 Mustang. Ford actually rates the Ecoboost Mustang above the V6.
+rbeaton16 yes but I meant that the Camaro did the better overall facelift body and interior wise, especially for the base models.
For stock exhaust that thing sounds crazy. Chevy knows what they're doing.
10:15 - That's a strange location for a stop sign 🤔.
subaruawrxfan - your reviews are very entertaining, informative and watchable. thanks man
Dat stock exhaust tho
Your awesome subaruwrxfan! I’ve been watching your reviews for years now. Great job Matt. I hope you and your family are doing well! Slowly but surely. I’m sure we’ll get little matts🥳. My only advice is stay on top of your ish. Keep grinding, and never let your girl know you feel down and out. Keep it pushing!
Nice of the wife to let you borrow her coat on a cold wet day.
Pea coats were men's coats first, they are standard issue in the US Navy.
Did that Camaro have the dual exhaust mode? If not then wow the sound is awesome for a v6!!!! Tempting me to just get this one instead of the v8 cheaper too!
Jonathan Cuenca: No, that was the plain (2 pipe) exhaust. NPP has 4 pipes - the outer 2, controlled by a butterfly, don't go through the muffler. I know it makes a big difference in my SS
Who needs mustangs when you got this
Just picked up a 1lt 6 speed manual in white and love it
interior looks way better proud of gm
Just priced it on TrueCar.com and this new Camaro V6 is virtually the same price as Mustang GT!!!
I love the new Camaro but the GT/V8 is much faster, now I don't know which one to buy...
Complaining about visibility is getting tired. You can see the road and other cars if you were taught how to drive properly and practice it regularly.
Lickwid Apex have you driven this car? Coming from a sedan or suv with excellent visibility to driving this car is a real shock. I rented this for 3 days and it took a little bit of getting used to. I still found myself being extremely cautious making left turns in city traffic because it was hard to see around the a-pillar. Rear visibility is tough and that really matters when it comes to highway driving when you’re trying to judge the behavior of traffic behind you before switching lanes. Even the mirrors were tougher to use because they’re smaller than mirrors on a standard sedan or suv. I enjoyed this car a lot over the 3 days but definitely found it challenging to see out of and for that reason, I could never purchase it. Safety first, but I really do like this car.
@@ItsMeCJ I'm coming from a Hummer H3 into this, so by my standards I can see everything 😂😂
I’m 5”8 I fit perfectly fine in the back seat
omg I can't wait to get mines in April!
getting the SS tho
I Don't Like You how is it? do you like it? i get mine in 3 months!!
Man you know how to sell a car! Love your reviews.
Getting this for my first car
Congrats on getting another brand new car to review! Nicely done!
+slaWterCH Thanks!
I think the 6G Camaro SS is a candidate for me soon. I've owned a 2015 Mustang GT and it just didn't live up to my expectations so I sold it.
what was lacking? im not the biggest fan of the 2015-2016 bodystyle
+smithstetics Just the whole experience. It just didn't feel special to me.
why do I smell BS
+matthew von fr hahaha
+matthew von One thing that I smell is fiberglass thanks to my C7 (see my videos).
Great post! I just test drove the Camaro 2LT with the V6, and I was very impressed. I don't think its any kind of a compromise to everyday car. Would I want an SS? Well yah, but I like spending money on the high trim package rather then the better engine I wouldn't get to enjoy nearly as much as I would want to on my daily compute. The driving experience you get, for under 40K is more then enough for my consumer needs. I feel there is this stigma that if it doesn't have a V8 its not a "real" Camaro. I think any one that still thinks that needs to get behind the wheel of this 2016 Camaro LT.
I appreciated this review.
I love the camaro and have seen many videos about it but this is the best.
I will never understand why they waste money on back seats in these types of cars when they know no one can fit fit back there and if one tries they will not be comfortable. Why not use that space for something more productive? You're 5'9' I'm 5'5" and drive a MB clk320 with the same damn backseat design. The back of the drivers seat rest against the back seat. No one can fit back there, zero leg room, a waste of leather! When you hit the gas I got excited =p
They do it for pets and kids ...not a joke
I agree. Pointless. However...big insurance savings. Two door cars with no back seat are automatically more expensive when it comes to insurance.
Well they have their functionality.
You got a place for your shit, you can put a dog back there.
Someone can still ride back there
Muscle cars were first designed as a quick coupe to get to and from work on the daily. They should keep that idea in mind
@@jasonweidman2614 Funny story: I was working an IT contract at an insurance company, and one day, I ask an actuary about something that had been bugging me about the rate difference. I told him I would have thought that a 2 seater should be cheaper to insure, because your passenger liability (where the real $$ risk is) would be maxed at one, while a 2+2 could conceivably have 3. He told me that it doesn't have to do with the cars, but that 2-seaters get into more accidents, statistically. Even though many more accidents involve cars with back seats, there are SO many more of them on the road than 2-seaters.
Good review , i agree with the dead peddle travel only down side , it is a very smooth , fast , sharp turning car , chevy suprized me big time , and i own a 2015 evo x .
Why does GM hate the "Cancel-Resume" buttons for their cruise controls? Does anyone happen to know? Why skimp on that?
+kessel251 Yup, huge oversight. Only the base cloth interior has cancel.
I roll my eyes every time they talk about visibility
