I have a 22 1SS1LE and it's my third Camaro and it is the best handling and overall driving Camaro out of the three! The only thing that could be better IMO is the 0-60 time, but she is thick so some weight reduction is needed to make it faster. But I really have fun in this car, and as far as the visibility issues people complain about, well I only need to see what's in front of me cause I left everything else behind😝
Chevy owes its customers the effort to make the Camaro better than before. Ford maintains the Mustang. The 1LE would be my fav too. I don’t need all the body trim and the ridiculous track wing. Handling and braking is a standout on the 1LE. The new corvette should be inspiration but not the template, for the next Camaro. 👍
@@mayosturgell4474 and for the same price you could have a GT500. Which would blow the doors off that Camaro. And a Mustang Gt with a twin turbo or supercharger, would cost even less.
As like most of the writers, I too had 2 Camaro’s in my life. I had 1977 and 1997 Z28. I loved them both. I was truly heartbroken when it was announced that they were dropping it in 2024. Now hearing that it will be back in 2026 really brings my spirit back. I can hardly wait to see what it will look like. I hope a 1980’s version would not be bad….😉
I currently own 2 Camaro. One of them is a 1969 Camaro Z28 /RS . One of favorite styles of Camaro. I also own a 5th Generation SS. I believe they hit the mark when they built this car. A little bit of old school style with modern touches and performance. Both cars are from different time. Both fantastic cars. I believe if they would of left the body style alone and just make some performance upgrades , and they would have come with a RS/ SS Package that would of had hide away headlight. That would of been a great package. The car is not selling due to lack of advisement . When was the last time you saw a commercial about a Camaro on TV. Just look at what Dodge has don with the Challenge. Pretty much keep the body style the same since 2008 with performance packages. They are still selling those with a good amount of sales. Look at the commercials with a Dodge Challenger. Great commercials. The problem with Chevrolet, is that they just let the Camaro die. Period.
Advertisement! If the. Big issue the space inside is and the exterior design . They don't have that wow factor like the other two. You made the car look more common to other things on the road . And made it smaller ? Not good for sales
I think if they were to update the interior inside and more roomer inside would be a plus. Also a bigger display also it’s really small vs how they update for other models have a 11” center display also.
Hp and torque aren't important to all Camaro owners. I have a 2014 with the v6. It is a great car for traveling. I don't track it or drag race . I love the independent suspension, the limited slip differential and direct injection. I drove the gen 6 Camaro but didn't like the reduced interior space or lower stance I'll look at the 2024 LT1 V8. I do have a 2017 Stingray. I prefer my Camaro's handling. I've gotten used to the reduced visibility.
I bought a new ZL1 in 2019, which I love. I have to say that you're correct that on the public roads the extra horsepower is overkill. The 356 hp you get on the V6 is plenty for normal driving. There are those who love the sound of a pushrod V8 though and the effortless acceleration that comes with 8 cylinders. The chassis is one of the best on the road as is the magnetic ride control. I was a Mustang GT guy for 20 years but the 6th gen camaro is a superior product in my mind. I don't understand why it didn't sell better
When you start a statement about a Camaro with "HP and torque aren't important" I can't take anything that succeeds that seriously. Those two things are literally why that car exists.
GM kills vehicle models by not promoting them. GM's marketing stupidity is astounding. I go back 20 years with this next comment, but it is still salient. Oldsmobile was still selling to an acceptable degree DESPITE absolutely no advertising. Then GM drops the make because it was supposedly failing. Look at what GM is doing with Buick the last couple years. The only commercials you see are of an ethnically mixed woman having the damn car being self parked. Mitsubishi (I like Mitsu) is outselling Buick these days. Unreal.
After driving both a 2011 5th gen, and 2018 6th gen, I decided the one I wanted to buy was the 2014-15 body style 5th gen. Glad I did pick 5th gen absolutely awesome car, truly feels like a car that will last and I'll still be taking to car shows 40 years from now. The 6th gen I drove, just didnt have that feeling to me... Felt kind of, more refined.. In the way of maximizing profit margins.
I have a 2020 RS/1LE, and a mail truck driver pulled out in front of me (looking down at his phone)while I was doing about 35 on a back road. No where to go I just stomped the brake. Missed the mail truck by about a foot. No way any other car I have ever driven could stop like that. I will no longer complain about tire prices or brake pads. I love my Camaro!
The only reason Comaro's aren't selling is because GM refuses to listen to consumers, wishing that the car was easier to see out of. My wife is 5' 1" and has no problem, but I'm 6' 2" and can't see out as easily as other cars and it's too low getting in and out for me and the trunk opening is too small. It's a great car, but unfortunately, it's just not for me
The reason they don’t sell not everyone has a tow truck or a A A A membership to get the thing back home after you drive it unreliable scrap never buy a gm again 2021 worst car I ever owned
The Camaro has grown in price that’s too close to the Corvette’s $60k entry MSRP. You’re appealing to a younger base who is influenced by video games and tech cell phones. They want this car. A V8 Camaro should be more affordable. A redesign is overdue.
*waiting til 8 minutes out of 9 minutes for this guy to actually talk about what will rock the ENTIRE industry* *2024 collectors addition* Okay bro 😂😂😂😂
I am a Camaro fan but GM fell short on the styling on the front end on that car. Something about it just seems off. I have a 1997 Camaro and I love it.
@@xXJasonMakiXx well I prefer this generation over the one that is about to make its exist. My favorite Camaros are from 1979-1973. Plus I love my T-top.
The Camaro failed because they didn’t make it as accessible as the Mustang. That is makes it RHD from factory and ship it to Australia. Yes I’m bias to the Camaro. Mustang just became the best selling sports car because of how it’s packaged.
Without the Camaro, the hp/track ⏲️ Pony muscle car wars are boring. Competition drives advancements. I'm sure they're just putting it away to bring it back as a ev
Chevrolet made a huge mistake by not designing the current version of the Camaro much closer to the 1969 styling. Ford did a MUCH better job with the Mustang. My first car was a 1969 Camaro. When the new version came out in 2016 I was excited up to the time that I actually saw the car. It looks like something out of a Transformer movie. So little visibility for the driver that it's also dangerous to drive. Ugh.
they went too far with the ugliest face i have ever seen on a car... it looks like its smiling. they could have recreated the 67 and 68 and 69 but went for the young crowd that is getting hammered by inflation. older guys dont want the camaro. the corvette takes all the attention.
Don’t you supposed to be around for 50 years if you have a 50th anniversary…. like being married And divorced …..for 9 years…. and then counting your 50th wedding anniversary…. When you’ve only been married 41 years! Just stating facts!
1st off the Camaro should have more power, it’s competitors are a lot more powerful. 2nd if the Camaro had a cool nickname instead of just a bunch of numbers and letters….Scat Pack, Hellcat, Demon, Shelby Cobra and we get 1ZLE and 2SS smh
Idk the base v8 models are all around the same hp but the camaro has a big handling advantage. I see your point in the top end models the camaro maxes out around 650hp but it's more than capable around the track.
The Camaro failed due to lack of advertising, listening to customers and auto enthusiasts and the Corvette having such a low starting price. Theirs no Viper, with the Challenger and Charger giving the same type of performance. Theirs no Ford GT, when you get the same type of performance from a Mustang at a fraction of the price! Camaro and Corvette were too close in price range to coexist.
Well. , if you're looking for a muscle / pony car you know of three choices so the camaro didn't need advertising. They just don't have that wow factor like the 5th gens did. And they are smaller than the other cars. So why buy them again?
My '17 ZL1 10sp is truly a beast, I ditched the 1.7l supercharger for a 2.9l whipple, CAI, headers, exhaust and a custom tune for the LT4 which is an engine that responds nicely to even the smallest bolton upgrades. This puts 640hp to the wheels and is more than enough for me, while younger are guys push 800whp even 900 which insane, the guys who built my car have a 1200hp ZL1 test mule for their shop, my car is my daily driver and even at my level you can't hit this thing as not only does it hit 100mph in just over 7 seconds and the best thing (or worse) is you can hear it more than a mile away... It's glorious... IMO it drives better than the '17 Corvette ZO6 8sp auto, I was getting one or the other and I liked the ZL1 better, and even with the upgrades it was less $$ than the '17 ZO6. Now the issues with the C8's having trouble, my purchase is on hold and I'll keep my ZL1, happily.
It takes a lot more than one car to save a brand and right now GM isn't looking very healthy. The need a couple of inexpensive and reliable cars and trucks, think boring but does work.
I've owned four Camaros. 1982, 1988, 1998, and 2010. I loved them all, but I think the 2010 is the best of the lot mechanically. (I do miss the 80s body design sometimes. There was nothing like it on the road.) Give me an electric Camaro for 2026? - but don't make the mistake they made with the SUV like Mustang.
It may be the last one standing, but it has never been as good a car, every generation, it falls short on looks, and way behind in performance and durability.
@@user-Dr. Hahaha so that's why chevy copied it huh? That why they stole the windsor? When comes to reliability dodge fans & ford fans can debate which 1 is better but reliability is not something gm is known for at all tahoes burning blazers flipping silverado axles the bolt & equinox the ignition recalls & all the other recalls 😂 can't forget about the gd door handles
@@Rhino2087 You're a funny guy, or girl, or I guess whatever you want to be these days, but whatever, one simple fact is you lie like a democrat, the sbc was introduced nearly a decade before the windsor, ford tried to copy but failed, that engine could never compete with the sbc, copies are never as good, GM is building the best most reliable vehicles in the world, but people like you like to spread lies, make stuff up instead of going to the race track and competing or at least watch to learn what is really going on, explain, in the world of racing the Chevy LS package has become the standard race engine for all brands of cars, NASCAR, Trans Am, NHRA, in the road racing I do where anything goes, the fastest Mustangs are also powered by Chevy, the Dodges and Toyotas can't even find their way to the track not to mention around it, on race day GM dominates everything, Camaros and Corvettes are the fastest, most reliable production based road racing cars money can buy, 90% of the tow vehicles are GM, you really need to crawl out and witness real life pal, get to the track.
I have a 2016 RS, I love it. Never had issues in seeing out of it, or feeling claustrophobic inside. As for GM, they never marketed the car correctly, that falls on them. The future, I was all for an EV version, then starting hearing about it being 4 door and having subscriptions for having heated seats and the like. NO THANKS. I'll just keep what I have and enjoy it. Too little too late for the 2024, they (GM) just don't seem to care about the car or name.
GM - known internally as Gruesome Murderer has killed more brands than any other company that claims to be "in" the car business; LaSalle, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Saturn, SAAB, Holden, Daewoo, Humner, the EV1 Electric Car, etc. And GM gets partial credit for giving it their all in trying to Kill Opel and Lotus. You can kinda see why they are internally known as Gruesome Murderer.
The Camaro lagged in sales because chevy won't fucking make many. They never made much effort to market or incentive it. When you want to order one you have an allocation. What the hell is up with that. The demand is there.
I am 55 years old. I grew up a GM boy in Michigan. Most of my cars from the earlier years were GM. No complaints. I grew up. their quality was horrible. I stopped being a stupid fanboy. I sold Fords at a dealership and I know that Ford is slightly behind GM in terms of being awful. You want a great car purchase? Buy a Toyota.
I’m sorry but GM doesn’t have the performance drive they did from 2002 and back to the 90’s. They wouldn’t let ford or dodge beat them on the track or strip. They’ve never really put much into adding several models like the Mustang in its GT, GT-350, GT-500 and so on. The biggest reason they didn’t want it to compete with their corvette which is why they canned the Trans Am, GTO, G8 GXP and so on which is why they are shutting down Camaro production again.
@@DoWorkNP I completely agree with that but honestly the 1993 thru 2003 Camaro Z28 and SS were pretty good on the track for the time and the Trans Am with the WS6 package was even better. If I’m not mistaken the 1999 to 2002 Camaro and/or Trans Am beat the Corvette during track testing. My big deal is that GM really looks like they haven’t cared about the Camaro platform as much as Ford cares about the Mustang or Dodge the Charger and Challenger. They really haven’t changed the looks much other than the front end and headlights. They should have made a version with T-Tops, full Carbon edition a 700 plus horsepower version and so on. Could’ve even went to an 80’s look with a hatch back. I just really wanted them to be as competitive as they once were.
Don't worry, GM is recalling over 3 million vehicles, all the way back to 2007. So, it looks like more junk in the future! Oh, the most unreliable vehicle on the road is still the Cadillac Escalade!
If the new model doesn't look like 08-22 in any way I'm all for a new direction. If not it'll be second oldest platform next to the Challenger which makes money
The 6th gen rides on a totally different chassis (Alpha) than the 5th gen (Zeta). They got suckered into the retro trap though and didn't know where to go after effectively copying the first gen look. What do they do then, copy the second gen or come up with something totally different? They did neither and the average person can't really tell the difference.
the nascar is not a real camaro but a purpose built race car. the same for the mustang and toyota entries. just different decals to make them look like a camaro or mustang
When the prices are outrageous to begin with you wonder why sales are bad ? Most families don't make the money to even come close to buying one. Ding dong dummies, bring the price down. First get rid of your greedy UAW.
I think that this video was a waste of time and I'm mad at everybody who thinks that the world needs to have less gas guzzling cars. Just let me have my fun.
Worst selling muscle car in the big 3. We know why. Let's put a 4 cylinder in a sports car...lol. well ford following suit but still sold more by twice..lol
I didn’t watch the video, didn’t need to because I’m positive “changes the entire car industry” is BS clickbait crap. This is why I’m starting to hate RUclips car stuff.
Jeez don't ever call a Mustang a sports car. Throughout its entire history it never handled that great (FACT!), especially compared to a Camaro, which ALWAYS excelled in the handling and cornering dept. The Mustang was like a flying brick and most still haven't improved much. My biggest criticism of Mustangs these days is they have gotten too monotonous. There are a gazillion of them on the road with seemingly a hundred different variants and a new one coming out every couple of months. When one drives by you never quite know what your looking at because they're a dime a dozen. Some are stylish but many are homely and by now boring. Yes, high performance is available but some of us want the performance but not the feeling that we're just another penguin in a mass-produced thing that everybody and their kid brother does burnouts with. And WAY overpriced. I've bought two new Camaros in my life: a '74 LT with 350 & factory dual exhaust, and a '84 Z28 H.O. with 5 speed and 4-wheel disks. Both were drop-dead gorgeous and easily outperformed the Mustangs of the era in every way, and the Mustangs were ugly as sin. Just sayin.

It takes a lot more than one car to save a brand and right now GM isn't looking very healthy. The need a couple of inexpensive and reliable cars and trucks, think boring but does work.
Hoping the Z28 is in the works with LT6 motor manual transmission and 5th gen z28 vibe, less weight more aero
I've owned four Camaros. 1982, 1988, 1998, and 2010. I loved them all, but I think the 2010 is the best of the lot mechanically. (I do miss the 80s body design sometimes. There was nothing like it on the road.) Give me an electric Camaro for 2026? - but don't make the mistake they made with the SUV like Mustang.
ALL HALE THE KING, The Mustang the ast one standing
It may be the last one standing, but it has never been as good a car, every generation, it falls short on looks, and way behind in performance and durability.
@@user-Dr. Hahaha so that's why chevy copied it huh? That why they stole the windsor? When comes to reliability dodge fans & ford fans can debate which 1 is better but reliability is not something gm is known for at all tahoes burning blazers flipping silverado axles the bolt & equinox the ignition recalls & all the other recalls 😂 can't forget about the gd door handles
@@Rhino2087 You're a funny guy, or girl, or I guess whatever you want to be these days, but whatever, one simple fact is you lie like a democrat, the sbc was introduced nearly a decade before the windsor, ford tried to copy but failed, that engine could never compete with the sbc, copies are never as good, GM is building the best most reliable vehicles in the world, but people like you like to spread lies, make stuff up instead of going to the race track and competing or at least watch to learn what is really going on, explain, in the world of racing the Chevy LS package has become the standard race engine for all brands of cars, NASCAR, Trans Am, NHRA, in the road racing I do where anything goes, the fastest Mustangs are also powered by Chevy, the Dodges and Toyotas can't even find their way to the track not to mention around it, on race day GM dominates everything, Camaros and Corvettes are the fastest, most reliable production based road racing cars money can buy, 90% of the tow vehicles are GM, you really need to crawl out and witness real life pal, get to the track.
The Mustang is not an ast! Its not bad. if there was no Mustang there would be no Camaro.
I will buy a used ZL1 1LE before I would buy a new Mustang
What does any of this have to do with 2024 camaro????
Nothing. !!!!
I thought it was discontinued?
Hey man! How do I reach out??

I have a 2016 RS, I love it. Never had issues in seeing out of it, or feeling claustrophobic inside. As for GM, they never marketed the car correctly, that falls on them. The future, I was all for an EV version, then starting hearing about it being 4 door and having subscriptions for having heated seats and the like. NO THANKS. I'll just keep what I have and enjoy it. Too little too late for the 2024, they (GM) just don't seem to care about the car or name.
5th gen is king
A 5th gen with a Turbonetics turbo system. Great all around Camaro.
GM - known internally as Gruesome Murderer has killed more brands than any other company that claims to be "in" the car business; LaSalle, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Saturn, SAAB, Holden, Daewoo, Humner, the EV1 Electric Car, etc. And GM gets partial credit for giving it their all in trying to Kill Opel and Lotus. You can kinda see why they are internally known as Gruesome Murderer.
The Camaro lagged in sales because chevy won't fucking make many. They never made much effort to market or incentive it. When you want to order one you have an allocation. What the hell is up with that. The demand is there.
I am 55 years old. I grew up a GM boy in Michigan. Most of my cars from the earlier years were GM. No complaints. I grew up. their quality was horrible. I stopped being a stupid fanboy. I sold Fords at a dealership and I know that Ford is slightly behind GM in terms of being awful. You want a great car purchase? Buy a Toyota.
I have never liked the new Camaro because of the low roof line compared to the original car. The Mustang is MUCH better looking than the Camaro.
Let’s see what comes out I’ll trade in my 5 gen. ZL1 but hang on to my 2nd gen Z-28.
1:02 🤨 what the hell is a "cool wet"?!?!
Forgot to include the history of the discovery of bacteria by microscope
The Mustang will still outsell it. Always does.
Uuuuuhhh.... You're lying because. The 5th gen outsold the mustang . smart guy
So will you be able to actually see out of it?
Probably the best all around Camaro ever produced, and still no one bought it. Time to move on.
I’m sorry but GM doesn’t have the performance drive they did from 2002 and back to the 90’s. They wouldn’t let ford or dodge beat them on the track or strip. They’ve never really put much into adding several models like the Mustang in its GT, GT-350, GT-500 and so on. The biggest reason they didn’t want it to compete with their corvette which is why they canned the Trans Am, GTO, G8 GXP and so on which is why they are shutting down Camaro production again.
To be fair it took mustang almost 5 years and nearly $30,000 more expensive mustang to even match GMs track capabilities in the 2018 ZL1 1LE.
@@DoWorkNP I completely agree with that but honestly the 1993 thru 2003 Camaro Z28 and SS were pretty good on the track for the time and the Trans Am with the WS6 package was even better. If I’m not mistaken the 1999 to 2002 Camaro and/or Trans Am beat the Corvette during track testing.
My big deal is that GM really looks like they haven’t cared about the Camaro platform as much as Ford cares about the Mustang or Dodge the Charger and Challenger. They really haven’t changed the looks much other than the front end and headlights. They should have made a version with T-Tops, full Carbon edition a 700 plus horsepower version and so on. Could’ve even went to an 80’s look with a hatch back. I just really wanted them to be as competitive as they once were.
T -tops ? Niiiiice but crash test ratings .
This a great looking and driving car, but the visibility is limited and I feel claustrophobic in the car.
Chevrolet just doesn’t get it, what we want is a 1969 Z28, not this new stuff.
This is a joke...all of the model Camaros were too expensive in their CLASSES that's why they didn't sell then and won't sell again.
So many mistakes in this video. He even called it a Ford Camaro at 8:58 of the video.
Corvette Z04……
5:19 - gotta get me a Z04 Corvette
Good luck
Don't worry, GM is recalling over 3 million vehicles, all the way back to 2007. So, it looks like more junk in the future! Oh, the most unreliable vehicle on the road is still the Cadillac Escalade!
GM is done. Don't think we are all going to flock to EV's
You do know that NASCAR's are not production cars .... right?
If the new model doesn't look like 08-22 in any way I'm all for a new direction. If not it'll be second oldest platform next to the Challenger which makes money
Mustang is the oldest of them all, the actual engineering traces back to 1998 when DEW98 was introduced
@@thatboringblenderguy Ford and Dodge did it right while gm Idk the last facelift really showed that they were lost
The 6th gen rides on a totally different chassis (Alpha) than the 5th gen (Zeta). They got suckered into the retro trap though and didn't know where to go after effectively copying the first gen look. What do they do then, copy the second gen or come up with something totally different? They did neither and the average person can't really tell the difference.
@@blackrat1228 Alpha may be different structurally but they share the same interchangeable parts with Zeta and Sigma
the nascar is not a real camaro but a purpose built race car. the same for the mustang and toyota entries. just different decals to make them look like a camaro or mustang
I thought chevy said no more Camaro
When the prices are outrageous to begin with you wonder why sales are bad ? Most families don't make the money to even come close to buying one. Ding dong dummies, bring the price down. First get rid of your greedy UAW.
I think that this video was a waste of time and I'm mad at everybody who thinks that the world needs to have less gas guzzling cars. Just let me have my fun.
It failed because it is over priced and had two many trim packages.
If you think this car which sells in minor numbers is as you say"Changes the Entire car industry"would indicate a distinct lack of intelligence.
16-18 Camaros are best.
Lol... Says who?

Why are their wheels, castrated 14 year old boy wheels. Put some monster diameter wheels and faring's on that car.
It’s the last year of the Camaro.
lol, gas engines only? this thing is DOA.
Something special....that will be way overpriced and hard to get.
Learn to pronounce "Camaro."
Sounds fine to me
II will be totally unaffordable
Looks like a face lifted 2010
Worst selling muscle car in the big 3. We know why. Let's put a 4 cylinder in a sports car...lol. well ford following suit but still sold more by twice..lol
I didn’t watch the video, didn’t need to because I’m positive “changes the entire car industry” is BS clickbait crap. This is why I’m starting to hate RUclips car stuff.
Next one is gonna be all electric and it's gonna gulp goat's balls. Totally looking forward to it . . . NOT.
Camaros always under performed you want the best sports car American ever made mustang Ford mustang The best never rest. Just keep getting better
Took ford 5 years to put out a mustang that could even match the '18 ZL1 1LE. And it's still almost $30,000 more expensive than the camaro.
Jeez don't ever call a Mustang a sports car. Throughout its entire history it never handled that great (FACT!), especially compared to a Camaro, which ALWAYS excelled in the handling and cornering dept. The Mustang was like a flying brick and most still haven't improved much. My biggest criticism of Mustangs these days is they have gotten too monotonous. There are a gazillion of them on the road with seemingly a hundred different variants and a new one coming out every couple of months. When one drives by you never quite know what your looking at because they're a dime a dozen. Some are stylish but many are homely and by now boring. Yes, high performance is available but some of us want the performance but not the feeling that we're just another penguin in a mass-produced thing that everybody and their kid brother does burnouts with. And WAY overpriced. I've bought two new Camaros in my life: a '74 LT with 350 & factory dual exhaust, and a '84 Z28 H.O. with 5 speed and 4-wheel disks. Both were drop-dead gorgeous and easily outperformed the Mustangs of the era in every way, and the Mustangs were ugly as sin. Just sayin.
I was hoping that would go all out with possible mid engine Camaro
