hmm I have a couple of opinions on what everyone is saying, firstly I own a 1LT 2019, would I prefer the V6 or V8? quite obviously, I plan to upgrade eventually but I also am only 21 years old and have had my license for just 2 years, the insurance on a bigger engine would be insane compared to my insurance now,I couldn't afford that not to mention im in college. Secondly I can promise you that this car can go pretty fast, how fast do you need to go on streets anyway? as for the styling being "ugly" I have had plenty of compliments on how my car looks, I have had some mods done to it but even when I first got it I received compliments. The MPG on my car is also solid and the car definitley does sound pretty nice when you accelerate ( I have also got compliments on that ). I also have seen a lot more 4-Cylinders around than V6 or V8 so they are obviously doing quite decent when it comes to how many have been sold. This car is still better looking, handles better and is faster than the average car on the road. This is all just my personal opinion, call bullshit on it or whatever you want but this is why I got a 4-Cylinder Camaro. Ive always wanted a Camaro and will no doubt upgrade to the higher trim once I'm through with college.
A fair and honest review, your are right. I'm 32 now, with two small kids and I do like sport cars and I would not mind the 4 cyl since I got a lot of debt such as mortgage, credit and I just want a fun commute with great MPG. What's your MPG?
I have this car. Only mine is a stick. Love it! Many compliments. Great on gas. I now have 10 grandkids....so not really a great car for family. But I am glad I bought it last summer.
I've owned a 2015 Eco Boost Mustang, a 2017 5.0 Mustang GT and now a 2019 2.0 turbo Camaro and I've loved them all, it just comes down to what you want. the Camaro looks amazing and with a simple tune you can easily get 300 HP to the wheels. Now that's not the 450 HP from the SS or 420 HP from the GT but most people would not be able to use that 400+ HP to potential. I think the turbo Camaro is awesome and for $22,000 you cant beat it.
My, my, my how jaded we have become Joe. Since when is 0-60 in 5.1 an afterthought? How 275hp & 295ftlbs of torque the rental, budget engine? No, you didn’t exactly say that but this is a hell of a nice Camaro. My guess is you can pick one of these up for $25K or less?? I like it. Put the V8 out of your head when considering this 2.0 turbo. This is one of my favorite engines and look how many manufacturers agree. VW will stick a 2.0 turbo in anything!!! This thing would leave my Focus ST3 in the dust. That’s pretty fast if you ask me......
Im not too sure about this topic. I think it is mainly for the people who want a CAMARO but not for a pretty penny. I personally have a 19 v6 1lt rs and I love it! but I understand why people would want an inline-4.
I rented a turbo camaro convertible this past weekend and loved it so much that Im watching this video. No, this car would never replace my M3 nor my X6, but it was super zippy and didn't disappoint on the road trip. Was able to cruise at a stable 70mph on the highway and easily slam the gas to skirt to 100mph+ to overtake people easily. On top of that, the phone system/carplay is impressive so I was easily able to have a phone conversation with the top down cruising at 90mph. The person I was talking to said they heard me clear and the noise cancelation cancels all the wind noise. The car is great for cruising on the weekend even if it isn't a track day monster. I think Chevy did a good job with this car.
Update from 2 weeks later (hopefully I wont get roasted for this)... But I enjoyed driving this convertible soooo much that I went looking for one for a decent price and sold my M3... Unfortunately, I couldn't find a Turbo Convertible Camaro for what I was comfortable spending (
The 2.0 Turbo has been available since 2016. Judging by the number of used units available, compared to SS, it seems like the 2.0 Turbo sells well. Would be interesting to get official numbers from GM.
yeah. not sure why he kept saying " new for this year" sounds like he was just uneducated in terms of this car. As we know, the 4 cylinders has been selling like hot cakes.
The 2019 Camaro Turbo WORKS ! Not only do you have a lighter car, but you have the HP that a V6 would. Plus, "the game" has changed. A lotta buyers want 'visual' so "HP/TRQ" don't play a factor in purchasing. Clean slate on this version.
Yea nowadays ppl are buying these cars for the looks and attention. And in 2019 4cly is the new v6. The v6 i the new v8. Same hp less weight, more gas mileage.
Styling is well conceived, particularly the front end. Since it is a Turbo 2.0 the hood should slope down to improve visability. Looks better than a Mustang.
I took my 2018 Camaro RS V6 to Ikea today and was able to a 2-piece desk, 2 office chairs, and still had plenty of room left over for smaller objects. The trunk opening honestly isn’t a big deal, just lift whatever you’re putting in the trunk an extra 4 inches and you’ll be fine; also don’t forget there’s back seats where you can store stuff.
I think we would both agree though that the Mustang would allow for an easier process with your 2-piece desk, and office chairs. Thanks for sharing your ownership experience Steve.
I'm thinking about purchasing one as my daily driver. You looked like you had a lot of fun driving it, and that's the impression I get from all the review videos I see about the 2.0L.
I’m only 16 rn but in the future Im thinking about buying the 4 cylinder camero as a daily driver it has good gas mileage and and 4 cylinder are easier to maintain I even though it’s not as fast it’s ok you have to sacrifice some things💯
I just bought a Riverside Blue Metallic 2019 1LS with a 6-spd manual last month and I couldn’t be happier. Drove it up from New Jersey dealership where I bought it to Massachusetts (a little over 300 miles) and managed to get 28 mpg. The V6 may have more horsepower but the turbo 4 has more torque,plus the added benefit of less weight in the front end,with the car weighing in at around 3300 pounds and some change. The 6-spd works excellent thru the torque bands and is precise for what it is. I looked at EcoBoost Mustangs and Hemi Challengers but the insurance surcharges plus the excise taxes where I live would’ve killed my budget,plus neither of those cars in my area had the colors or transmission I wanted and/or exceeded my budget (dealers in the Northeast typically don’t discount new or used). Regardless of how other people feel about it to me this is fun to drive-I think of it as an Americanized Nissan 240 SX/Silvia-one Nissan should’ve sent stateside but didn’t.
I will say this Joe. 2 weeks ago I went around the track with 3 different race car drivers. One was a v6 rs and the other the 4cy. The difference is noticeable but both handle great and the 0-60 times were pretty much equal. The main difference was the options and sounds. But they drive real good. And I am a mustang owner
The new look is nice, but the 16-18 is still my favorite with how aggressive the front looks and the taillights on this one are nicer. I'm a Chevy guy and I love Camaros, but to me a V6 is the way to go. Just as Joe said it depends on the opinion of the owner, either way I can agree it's a fun ride.
Well if you are at sea level, with the right tires and a tune, you're in the mid 4 sec range to 60 with a 13 sec quarter. The none modded turbo 4 can do 5.1 secs if you are good at it.
@@RaitisRides Well I mean if you are tuning it to say 500 hp and 520 tq then yeah I can see it. But most tunes will only put you at 330 to 350 hp and around 380 tq. Which the LTG can handle that. Heck people have the Malibu's LTG at 330 hp and going to strong. Some have put around 80k miles on their car with only oil changes and no issues.
Nice video! Here in Belgium, Europe emission taxes are crazy, a V8 would cost you 5k a year on taxes alone, 10K to register. That is why I own a '16 2.0. You get the looks, decent performance and affordable for the working class. Good job Chevy
Yes it doesn’t have the big HP numbers. However about 10-15 years ago that was V8 power. Just crazy how much power is coming from the small motors these days
It is crazy how much power these little guys put out that’s why after 10 years I’m really disappointed gm hasn’t given them any more power these engines are plenty capable of more
@@dantheman9395 if they wanted to be more economical these 4 cylinders can handle the v8 level of power and save gas they’re just making their cars “cheaper” as the cobalt ss launched at the similar price with the same power
Hi guys, I think the 4 cylinders Camaro (and mustang as well) are designed for the European market, where roads are very very much narrower and corners are really sharp. Also, consider fuel pricing and ownership taxes... in Italy a 450 hp car costs about 7000 euros per year in ownership taxes! Yes, I know, it sounds incredible, but so it is... So in Italy for example we are really happy in having a chance of getting a Camaro that is lighter and less powerful, because it better fits our reality. Just for you to make your considerations, the 275hp Camaro costs 1000 euros per year in taxes. As you can see there is a huge difference compared to the V8!
Camaro has always been my dream car. But I have a 16 Mustang. Yesterday when I put my 50 inch tv in my trunk was the only time I was ever thankful I got the Mustang instead lol. I still want a Camaro some day though.
Designed for people who only want it for the name or looks. 4 banger tends to have a nice amount of torque though. Something really disturbing about those daytime running led lamps?!?!?
I just purchased a 2022 Camaro RS 2.0 Turbo with 6speed manual, and it's great. We need to keep this in perspective... I purchased a V6 Firebird/Camaro off the showroom floor in 2002, and that engine had 200 HP and 225 pounds of torque... This 2.0 has 275 HP, and 295 pounds of torque. I have all the power I need as a Dad getting away from the kids for a bit.
As a diehard Mustang fan, and owner of a 17 5.0 and 13 3.7, I wish nothing but the best for the Camaro. I hope this helps boost their sales, with the recent news of potential discontinuation in 2023 I’m concerned for the future of Mustangs legendary direct competitor, an American icon.
I just leased the 2020 Camaro 1LT. While I wanted the ZL1, my dad (GM Car Sales manager) talked me into the 1LT. I definitely will be buying the ZL1 at the end of my 4 year lease but for being 25 and saving for a wedding and house this was the much more affordable option and has plenty of power for city dwellers.
The 2.0 turbo was introduced in 2016 when the 6th gen was introduced. And the LS3 has not been an option since the 5th gen from 2010-2015. And there is no “LS1” trim. There is an LS, 1LT, 2LT, 3LT, 1SS, 2SS, and ZL1
Raiti's Rides I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to every comment, positive or negative. It really sets you apart from every other car reviewer I watch. It’s great to see, and by the way if you could get a Mustang VS Camaro episode that would be fantastic. Either SS V GT or V6 V Ecoboost
I live in germany and GM sells only 2.0 Turbo and v8 camaros over here and right now i decided to go with a turbo camaro and so far i can tell you its an amazing ride. Would i prefer the v8 over a turbo? Well honestly sure but it costs alot more for 'just' the sound since you (or i) can very rarely use the power the v8 can provide. As a daily driver owning the full spec camaro i can tell you its a blessing. No car in germany can compare to what you get for the money. Most of them lose by just looks. I would not want to own a camaro with a base trim however. Im pretty glad that, unless you count the grey imports that where crashed in usa once, GM only sells the full package camaro as both 2.0 Turbo and v8.
The mistake is how the car looks, fugly! Also, the drivetrain isn't even promoted, how many people know you can even get the 1LE option on ALL versions🙄 Btw, just ZONK the entire car, terrible!
Is this something that the customers, via some kind of survey, said they were maybe interested in or is this one a those --throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks??? one of my neighbor drives a Camaro, or so i assume. ive never heard an engine note from that car. prolly a tesla in a camaro shell, its hella quiet, lol. It should be a crime to do this to the Camaro line lol. Thank you for taking to time to bring this one to us, @Raiti's Rides!!!!
Another mistake that they should have done is increase all the sides, from the doors and front/rear fenders to be HIGHER so that it will be in a class of its own. If they do that, then I will buy it definitely. Thanks for the video.
Perspective from the Australian market: Camaros are sold here, converted to RHD here in Oz. However, only V8 models are offered. When the 2015 Mustangs were sold as factory RHD in Oz, Ford Australia's initial order was for 2000 Ecoboosts and 2000 GT's. They quickly found that Oz buyers weren't interested in the T4, and waiting lists ballooned for the GT while T4's remained unsold. I don't know about the USA market, but here in Oz, muscle cars have to have a V8 to have any chance of selling in decent numbers.
Hi James, this 6th gen Camaro on the Cadillac platform is less than 3400lbs with the I4 turbo. It can hit low 5sec 0-60 times and decent 1320 et’s. This is the best platform Camaro has ever stuck its badge. With a few mods the LTG engine is hitting over 300hp and even more torque. I realize the 4 cylinder turbo makes some folks cringe. Believe me I was there. But a Camaro with near 50/50 weight distribution and less than 3400lbs makes for a great combination.
Not everyone wants or needs the power of the 455 HP LT1 SS or the track burning gut wretching crap in your pants scary power of the 650 HP ZL1-1LE. So yes the 275 HP turbo is a good choice at a reasonable price point for those that want a more civilized sports car while still experiencing extremely good ride and handling. And for 2019 for the first time ever you can equip the turbo 4 with the 1LE track package which means you get many of the track ready goodies that come with big brother ZL1-1LE giving it far more bite and character than the standard package. And with a 0 to 60 mph time of 5.4 seconds it's nothing to sneeze at. So bottom line is you get a lot of fun and bang for the buck with Junior while also saving some money at the pump as a daily commuter.
Michael Manjin thats what I dont understand there acting like this isn’t fast I have the same motor in my ATS and it’s fast I even beat my friends v6 mustang it’s almost 300 feet of torque and I dont want to pay insurance on a V8
Fun daily commute, good fuel economy, with a large aftermarket to test and tune. 2019 is not the first year of the 2.0 turbo. I park the V8 during the work week and drive the 4 banger to work daily, 38k miles with zero mechanical issues and it the 2.0 turbo is a suprisingly fun daily driver. Cost per mile of commute is where the 2.0t shines.
When I think of any engine being turbo charged and super charged means more money to pay when it starts having problems 😤 I still feel the Challenger is the most muscle looking muscle car even tho it’s been unchanged for years
I love my RT Challenger. But the problem Dodge has is that it looks like a 70s era muscle car. If you change it, you will no longer have that old school look.
@@TheAow4321, perhaps, but the weight is a problem. I have a Camaro SS now, but before I bought I rented both a V6 Challenger and V6 Camaro, both base model obviously. The Camaro surprised me at how comfortable it was on a twisty road. The Challenger just felt like a heavy car that would prefer going in straight lines, so I couldn't consider it. I don't doubt better suspension helps, but it will always carry those extra pounds.
So would I. But it's because I like the style of the Mustang better. But I also like the style of this car. If they gave me a great deal. I would buy it.
Times have changed,and with that goes the demand for different more efficient Engines.A fourbanger is absolutely alright today.But the V8 never goes out of style.Thanks for the vid from Sweden.
No Camaro should have a 4 cylinder. I think they do that just to sell more to those who can’t afford the higher priced models. Not a fan of any Camaro today. You still get 👍🏻👍🏻though. 😎🇺🇸
At Denver altitude combined with weight difference, lbs/hp is nearly a wash between the 2.0 and 3.6L V6. That's why I considered the 2.0T given the price difference and the slightly better gas mileage and future tuning options. Both engines have to be revved to get horsepower out of them. I wonder if they'll try a 2.7L variant from the truck line. Right now it appears the 2.0L is dead for the 2024 model year.
This would have worked really well in the late 2000's during the gas crisis. I don't see anything wrong with it besides it not being a true V8 muscle car. I'm sure die hard American muscle fans are gonna hate it. Would be a really good track Camaro.
Excellent reviews, Joe!!! I'm a new subscriber this morning. May-haps you can review a 1LE Track Performance Package and give us your perception of the difference in body roll and grip in tight corners. The Camaro chassis is supposedly great in standard trim, but even minimal body roll, for me, is a drag around town with all the U-turns. Basically, is it $4500 worth of flatness? And, does the V8 turn the Camaro into a boat, without the 1LE package?
Thanks for the compliment and for joining the Raiti's Rides family! I will try to track down a 1LE for you. The Camaro still handles well but obviously the 1LE just brings it to a new level.
That engine has more real power than the majority of the V8s in the 60's Camaros. All those numbers were gross HP/Torque now it is net numbers. Still can't beat a V8.
Joe, is there a way to search your videos? I'm also wondering if you've done a review of the new Honda Accord Sport 2.0 with the manual transmission? Thanks.
As European, I have only two options - this turbo or 6.2, 3.6 is not available and as 6.2 is out of my budget, I went for 2.0 Turbo. The pickup date should be this Tuesday, so looking forward to it. I think 2.0 Camaro has its place on the market, especially in Europe.
The mistake, they should have made it an inline six turbo charged or, put an ats-v twin turbo engine mated instead. Those n/a v8 guys will catch hell trying to keep up.
I honestly like that idea. The problem is that people cry when Cadillac can't differentiate their cars from Chevy. I mean it would be awesome if Chevy put the 3.0tt and 3.6tt into the Camaro. Ford and Lincoln for some reason don't seem to get complaints about sharing engines. But when Chevy and Cadillac do, it's almost blasphemy for doing such a damning thing.
@@kcmartin22 I would too. That seems to be the trend now, they need to stop focusing on the older demographic. If they focused on the younger generation, they could possibly bring in more buyers. That and do some updates to make the car more appealing and allow better sightlines. I know after awhile you get used to it, but most only test drive it for an hour or so. Because more than likely the consumer can't adjust to the sightlines quick enough to be comfortable after an hour.
Have always liked the Camaro..had a 81 and loved it...it had a V8. I like the new ones and agree the wheels on this one are boring...would like either a darker gun metal look or chrome. The only thing I don't like is the interiors but I do have to say they have improved them from the last generation. As always great job!
I think that a significant production of v12 engines can reduce the cost of production of engines in general based on the principle of redistribution of work mentioned by Adam Smith, it also increses the job offer
Hello Mr. Raiti. 1.) Here in Detroit we too have been talking about some mistakes regarding the Camaro. Somewhat surprisingly, the Challenger continues to out-sell Camaro. The 2.0 LTG? I "grenaded" the turbo in my 2014 ATS. Ceramic particulate found in #4. However, I find raging on the turbo a real kick because of the low end torque. 2.) I am hopeful that the 2020 Mustang HPP adds new interest in SCCA Trans-Am allowing younger generation weekend racers to have fun. (Add cage and Harness.) 3.) Have you ever been to the Woodward Dream Cruise? The week before, and leading up to the third Saturday in August? Bring your "crew" and family. Additionally, last observation: I would like to point out cruising Woodward IS alive, it has just evolved into more modern hatchbacks and current production Detroit iron. The lead sleds, 40's, 50s, 60s, & 70s do still also show up on Fridays and Saturdays. Tony, 64.
I'm sorry Chevy should have stayed with the V6. The only ones I can see owning a 4 cylinder Camaro are New drivers who want the look of a sports car without the horse power.
Hi Joe 80s camaros had 4 cylinder options but they were awful had like 83 horses something like that, also we had this here in europe as a 2016!!! With the older better looks
This would be my choice if I were to get the Camaro. Combine economic gas mileage and weight distribution but get that muscle car look. I used to own a '96ss but this has plenty power for regular street use. Don't see the need for 455 hp unless you plan to go track days regularly. May look into 1le package for some extra handling goodies and nicer rims.
Raiti's Rides no prob Joe. While stuck at home I’ve discovered all these cool channels. Particularly like the sports and muscle car reviews. Keep it up and stay safe!
Another amazing video from my guy Joe! I've never been a fan of the front fascia of the Camaro but it looks simply beautiful on this trim. The interior in my opinion is in the top 5 best looking designs for a sports car. I do not like the location of the vents nor do I favor the lack of visibility of windshield but I like this interior over the mustang. The price seems strange for a car with horse power no where near 300. I guess it's worth it but it seems like people are paying more for the name than anything else. Any who love the design but I would only get it if it was cheaper.
I get this car. Iam currently looking for a daily driver. The options are civic, Carolla, and others I won’t mention, the point is there front wheel drive and just don’t appeal to me for a fun to drive daily driver. This Camaro is rear wheel drive, duel exhaust, and has in my opinion great interior and exterior styling with way more power and fun factor than the civic and other coupe’s
Chevrolet's offered a 4-cylinder in the first year or 2 of the 3rd gen Camaro. Funny thing is this 4-cylinder has more power than the z28 did in the first 3 generation and almost as much as the 4th
i have the choice between this spec Camaro brand new and a used nicer spec Ecoboost mustang or challenger sxt. any recommendation on which I should get?
not a big fan of reviews that you've done in the past with cars that have entry level trim packages, but this was worthwhile watching, you don't expect to see a Camaro with a four cylinder engine , you're probably too young to remember this but in the 80s they had the Mustang SVO. Which was a four cylinder high-performance version of the six-cylinder 5.0 L engine.
The Camaro could've been so much better. Whoever is running Chevrolet needs to get with it. GM is definitely not the company they once were. That's why Mazda's getting my business these days.😉
@@gregholman2930 Exactly. It's really sad. America can't keep up with the imports. I've got real leather on my Mazda for $2000.00 less than this Camaro! Now that I've had leather, I'll never go back.
I just got my 19 Camaro 1LT and works just fine. I guess, it depends on what the driver or owner is looking for. 275hp is as good as V6. My minivan is V6 but it only has 266hp, but works the same. I actually feel more power with this 2.0L than other V6 cars. If the driver is power and speed conscious, then go for higher engine size. What do you expect for a 2.0L turbo with a base price of 27-28k? Dont expect a luxurious interior. This is not a luxury sport car. Those are just eye-candies. It works for me pretty well.
I read today that Chevrolet only has plans to keep this 7th gen Camaro through 2023 , and then will cancel the platform entirely. So get the ZL1 soon, unless you would rather have the Cobra 500. Or even the 350. Lots of other great choices to be had.
@@RaitisRides if you could just see out of the Camaro, and maybe put luggage or groceries in the trunk, and maybe fit passengers in the rear seat? Something small yet fast to go up against the Demons and Shelby's. Chevy just can't seem to get it right.
Was hoping GM would have made a Cruze based coupe where the 2.0 turbo would have been a great addition. But GM in my opinion, made a mistake in trying to make the Camaro an all in one sports coupe when its really not.
You can definitely tell that you are not a fan of Camaros lol But the more I see the v6s in person, the more I get a Pontiac feel from them. Aaaaaand that's not bad!
Joe how u doing? Joe for a 4cylinders is not my cup of tea. I saw you talking about the Chevy Camaro u realy educate me of buying one i remember u were talking about the Mustang n the Camaro, i went for the Camarp 2019 n let me tell u that 2019 Camaro is like having a rocket for an engine for a v6 i don't need a v8 . U know what i thank u for that tip. Joe take care n be safe my friend
I was pleasantly surprised at the visibility in the Mustang. I couldn't drive the Camaro with its low visibility. I also need storage space. The Mustang's center console can hold so much more. And imo the trunk space in the Mustang is very much appreciated. Still I can appreciate the Camaro for folks who love them. The governments are really pushing for more fuel efficient cars. EV will be the cars of the future. The 4 cyclinders are buying us some time and are imo a better option now than all electric. England has already designated that after a certain year all new cars sold there will have to be all electric.
hmm I have a couple of opinions on what everyone is saying, firstly I own a 1LT 2019, would I prefer the V6 or V8? quite obviously, I plan to upgrade eventually but I also am only 21 years old and have had my license for just 2 years, the insurance on a bigger engine would be insane compared to my insurance now,I couldn't afford that not to mention im in college. Secondly I can promise you that this car can go pretty fast, how fast do you need to go on streets anyway? as for the styling being "ugly" I have had plenty of compliments on how my car looks, I have had some mods done to it but even when I first got it I received compliments. The MPG on my car is also solid and the car definitley does sound pretty nice when you accelerate ( I have also got compliments on that ). I also have seen a lot more 4-Cylinders around than V6 or V8 so they are obviously doing quite decent when it comes to how many have been sold. This car is still better looking, handles better and is faster than the average car on the road. This is all just my personal opinion, call bullshit on it or whatever you want but this is why I got a 4-Cylinder Camaro. Ive always wanted a Camaro and will no doubt upgrade to the higher trim once I'm through with college.
Great points Michael! I appreciate the ownership perspective!
A fair and honest review, your are right. I'm 32 now, with two small kids and I do like sport cars and I would not mind the 4 cyl since I got a lot of debt such as mortgage, credit and I just want a fun commute with great MPG. What's your MPG?
I'm tired of feeding v8s and the 4t is marked down and has perfomance beyond the Corolla its priced with I'm 41 and am probably going to buy one
David Zavala I get 28 mpg on mine.
I have this car. Only mine is a stick. Love it! Many compliments. Great on gas. I now have 10 grandkids....so not really a great car for family. But I am glad I bought it last summer.
I've owned a 2015 Eco Boost Mustang, a 2017 5.0 Mustang GT and now a 2019 2.0 turbo Camaro and I've loved them all, it just comes down to what you want. the Camaro looks amazing and with a simple tune you can easily get 300 HP to the wheels. Now that's not the 450 HP from the SS or 420 HP from the GT but most people would not be able to use that 400+ HP to potential. I think the turbo Camaro is awesome and for $22,000 you cant beat it.
Just bought a 'brilliant' red. I love it! More than enough power for daily use. 30+ mpgs is awesome for the amount of fun the 2019 brings.
That is really great!
Moderne
LT4, LT1, V6 and T4 have been offered for a couple of model years now
Thanks for that info Patrick!
Raiti's Rides enjoy your videos keep up the great work, best of luck!
@@Patrick-sw2qk I really appreciate you saying that!
My, my, my how jaded we have become Joe. Since when is 0-60 in 5.1 an afterthought? How 275hp & 295ftlbs of torque the rental, budget engine? No, you didn’t exactly say that but this is a hell of a nice Camaro. My guess is you can pick one of these up for $25K or less?? I like it. Put the V8 out of your head when considering this 2.0 turbo. This is one of my favorite engines and look how many manufacturers agree. VW will stick a 2.0 turbo in anything!!! This thing would leave my Focus ST3 in the dust. That’s pretty fast if you ask me......
I rather have a GTI or your Focus ST. I am not super concerned about drag racing to the grocery store. LOL
Im not too sure about this topic. I think it is mainly for the people who want a CAMARO but not for a pretty penny. I personally have a 19 v6 1lt rs and I love it! but I understand why people would want an inline-4.
Very good points Jake!
I'd rock a turbo maro
@@MidwestDankAlumni I can't see you driving one.
@@RaitisRides the government won't let me drive lol
I rented a turbo camaro convertible this past weekend and loved it so much that Im watching this video. No, this car would never replace my M3 nor my X6, but it was super zippy and didn't disappoint on the road trip. Was able to cruise at a stable 70mph on the highway and easily slam the gas to skirt to 100mph+ to overtake people easily. On top of that, the phone system/carplay is impressive so I was easily able to have a phone conversation with the top down cruising at 90mph. The person I was talking to said they heard me clear and the noise cancelation cancels all the wind noise. The car is great for cruising on the weekend even if it isn't a track day monster. I think Chevy did a good job with this car.
Update from 2 weeks later (hopefully I wont get roasted for this)... But I enjoyed driving this convertible soooo much that I went looking for one for a decent price and sold my M3... Unfortunately, I couldn't find a Turbo Convertible Camaro for what I was comfortable spending (
The 2.0 Turbo has been available since 2016. Judging by the number of used units available, compared to SS, it seems like the 2.0 Turbo sells well. Would be interesting to get official numbers from GM.
yeah. not sure why he kept saying " new for this year" sounds like he was just uneducated in terms of this car. As we know, the 4 cylinders has been selling like hot cakes.
The 2019 Camaro Turbo WORKS ! Not only do you have a lighter car, but you have the HP that a V6 would. Plus, "the game" has changed. A lotta buyers want 'visual' so "HP/TRQ" don't play a factor in purchasing. Clean slate on this version.
That is an excellent point1 Thank you as always for watching!
Yea nowadays ppl are buying these cars for the looks and attention. And in 2019 4cly is the new v6. The v6 i the new v8. Same hp less weight, more gas mileage.
@@derekwilliams6188 Absolutely 👍
Styling is well conceived, particularly the front end. Since it is a Turbo 2.0 the hood should slope down to improve visability. Looks better than a Mustang.
Love the lighter curb weight and the tunability and sounds of a turbo!!!
Man I cant believe the sound of a 4 cylinder coming out of a car you'd normally hear deep v8 burbles from
It is intersting to say the least!
its sad to say the least
It's 0 to 60 time is right on par with the v6. To each their own I guess. Good looking car.
I took my 2018 Camaro RS V6 to Ikea today and was able to a 2-piece desk, 2 office chairs, and still had plenty of room left over for smaller objects. The trunk opening honestly isn’t a big deal, just lift whatever you’re putting in the trunk an extra 4 inches and you’ll be fine; also don’t forget there’s back seats where you can store stuff.
I think we would both agree though that the Mustang would allow for an easier process with your 2-piece desk, and office chairs. Thanks for sharing your ownership experience Steve.
Raiti's Rides lol probably, I just don’t think the difference is significant if you’re trying to choose one over the other. Love both cars though
I'm thinking about purchasing one as my daily driver. You looked like you had a lot of fun driving it, and that's the impression I get from all the review videos I see about the 2.0L.
It was fun!
I’m only 16 rn but in the future Im thinking about buying the 4 cylinder camero as a daily driver it has good gas mileage and and 4 cylinder are easier to maintain I even though it’s not as fast it’s ok you have to sacrifice some things💯
Yes they did. They should make the roof profile to be even lower so that there will be less visibility. Thanks for the video.
Lmao
Thanks for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
AGREED!
I love reading these comments!
Too funny
I just bought a Riverside Blue Metallic 2019 1LS with a 6-spd manual last month and I couldn’t be happier. Drove it up from New Jersey dealership where I bought it to Massachusetts (a little over 300 miles) and managed to get 28 mpg. The V6 may have more horsepower but the turbo 4 has more torque,plus the added benefit of less weight in the front end,with the car weighing in at around 3300 pounds and some change. The 6-spd works excellent thru the torque bands and is precise for what it is. I looked at EcoBoost Mustangs and Hemi Challengers but the insurance surcharges plus the excise taxes where I live would’ve killed my budget,plus neither of those cars in my area had the colors or transmission I wanted and/or exceeded my budget (dealers in the Northeast typically don’t discount new or used). Regardless of how other people feel about it to me this is fun to drive-I think of it as an Americanized Nissan 240 SX/Silvia-one Nissan should’ve sent stateside but didn’t.
Good comment where you at in Ma ? Northshore here.
Marques Dean Thanks for your experience with the 4 cyl. Does it take regular or premium fuel?
I will say this Joe. 2 weeks ago I went around the track with 3 different race car drivers. One was a v6 rs and the other the 4cy. The difference is noticeable but both handle great and the 0-60 times were pretty much equal. The main difference was the options and sounds. But they drive real good. And I am a mustang owner
Thanks for sharing that great insight from your experience! I really appreciate it!
The new look is nice, but the 16-18 is still my favorite with how aggressive the front looks and the taillights on this one are nicer. I'm a Chevy guy and I love Camaros, but to me a V6 is the way to go. Just as Joe said it depends on the opinion of the owner, either way I can agree it's a fun ride.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this one!
I would like to buy a 4 cylinder Camaro and mod it out just to see what it could do, if I could afford to!
Well if you are at sea level, with the right tires and a tune, you're in the mid 4 sec range to 60 with a 13 sec quarter. The none modded turbo 4 can do 5.1 secs if you are good at it.
I think the intrnals would not be able to take it.
Very good point Anthony!
@@RaitisRides
Well I mean if you are tuning it to say 500 hp and 520 tq then yeah I can see it. But most tunes will only put you at 330 to 350 hp and around 380 tq. Which the LTG can handle that. Heck people have the Malibu's LTG at 330 hp and going to strong. Some have put around 80k miles on their car with only oil changes and no issues.
@@99-Zulu It would be interesting.
Nice video! Here in Belgium, Europe emission taxes are crazy, a V8 would cost you 5k a year on taxes alone, 10K to register. That is why I own a '16 2.0. You get the looks, decent performance and affordable for the working class. Good job Chevy
Thanks for sharing that great info and for the compliment!
The back looks better but I really dont like the front. Theyre trying too hard.
Don't be fooled. The 4cyl has alot of potential. Few bolt ons and a tune and I make just as much as a ss
Thanks for sharing that input!
Glad you review all the models. From base to best. Hope everyone doing good. Later!

Raiti's Rides Doing good as well. Thanks guys.
@@dfw1fast143 GREAT!
Yes it doesn’t have the big HP numbers. However about 10-15 years ago that was V8 power. Just crazy how much power is coming from the small motors these days
That is so very true Dan! Great input!
It is crazy how much power these little guys put out that’s why after 10 years I’m really disappointed gm hasn’t given them any more power these engines are plenty capable of more
@@xxxmasenxxx5564 definitely. Sadly they are trying to be more economical. Some people just want a V8 brute ✌️😎👍
@@dantheman9395 if they wanted to be more economical these 4 cylinders can handle the v8 level of power and save gas they’re just making their cars “cheaper” as the cobalt ss launched at the similar price with the same power
Hi guys, I think the 4 cylinders Camaro (and mustang as well) are designed for the European market, where roads are very very much narrower and corners are really sharp.
Also, consider fuel pricing and ownership taxes... in Italy a 450 hp car costs about 7000 euros per year in ownership taxes! Yes, I know, it sounds incredible, but so it is...
So in Italy for example we are really happy in having a chance of getting a Camaro that is lighter and less powerful, because it better fits our reality.
Just for you to make your considerations, the 275hp Camaro costs 1000 euros per year in taxes. As you can see there is a huge difference compared to the V8!
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Camaro has always been my dream car. But I have a 16 Mustang. Yesterday when I put my 50 inch tv in my trunk was the only time I was ever thankful I got the Mustang instead lol. I still want a Camaro some day though.

Raiti's Rides Always! Keep up the great content 👍🏽
@@Ray_Stark That is so very awesome of you to say!
I put a 50in in my old 5th gen with no problem. The seats do go down in the back and the trunck is deep.
18:59 “Its not what’s under the hood, what matters is who’s behind the wheel.” It’s what Toretto said in the fast and furious movie.
I have this car. Mine is a manual though. I love it! The back seats actually fold down and make the trunk bigger.
That is awesone!
Designed for people who only want it for the name or looks. 4 banger tends to have a nice amount of torque though. Something really disturbing about those daytime running led lamps?!?!?
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
I just purchased a 2022 Camaro RS 2.0 Turbo with 6speed manual, and it's great. We need to keep this in perspective... I purchased a V6 Firebird/Camaro off the showroom floor in 2002, and that engine had 200 HP and 225 pounds of torque... This 2.0 has 275 HP, and 295 pounds of torque. I have all the power I need as a Dad getting away from the kids for a bit.
Hello, how reliable is this engine?
LS3 was retired for 2016 and replaced with the LT1. Also, the turbo 4 has been around since 2016.
Thanks for your great extra info! I really appreciate you sharing that!
As a diehard Mustang fan, and owner of a 17 5.0 and 13 3.7, I wish nothing but the best for the Camaro. I hope this helps boost their sales, with the recent news of potential discontinuation in 2023 I’m concerned for the future of Mustangs legendary direct competitor, an American icon.
It is terrible how the Camaro has dropped like a lead ballon!
It doesn't matter. GM is supposedly killing off the Camaro (again) by 2023. Camaro sales have completely tanked.
That is so very true!
Do to Covid-19 and shitty sales, I was able to get my son a brand new 2020 base Camaro for $16,872 out the door!
Nice

I just leased the 2020 Camaro 1LT. While I wanted the ZL1, my dad (GM Car Sales manager) talked me into the 1LT. I definitely will be buying the ZL1 at the end of my 4 year lease but for being 25 and saving for a wedding and house this was the much more affordable option and has plenty of power for city dwellers.
Didn't the 4 pot turbo debut a couple years ago here🤔 Btw, not all inline engine are put in sideways in a FWD car💡😉
Thanks for that great info!
They aren't, but it more likely
@@MidwestDankAlumni this is true!
The 2.0 turbo was introduced in 2016 when the 6th gen was introduced. And the LS3 has not been an option since the 5th gen from 2010-2015. And there is no “LS1” trim. There is an LS, 1LT, 2LT, 3LT, 1SS, 2SS, and ZL1
Thanks for that fantastic info! I appreciate you watching!
Raiti's Rides I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to every comment, positive or negative. It really sets you apart from every other car reviewer I watch. It’s great to see, and by the way if you could get a Mustang VS Camaro episode that would be fantastic. Either SS V GT or V6 V Ecoboost
I live in germany and GM sells only 2.0 Turbo and v8 camaros over here and right now i decided to go with a turbo camaro and so far i can tell you its an amazing ride. Would i prefer the v8 over a turbo? Well honestly sure but it costs alot more for 'just' the sound since you (or i) can very rarely use the power the v8 can provide.
As a daily driver owning the full spec camaro i can tell you its a blessing. No car in germany can compare to what you get for the money. Most of them lose by just looks.
I would not want to own a camaro with a base trim however. Im pretty glad that, unless you count the grey imports that where crashed in usa once, GM only sells the full package camaro as both 2.0 Turbo and v8.
The mistake is how the car looks, fugly! Also, the drivetrain isn't even promoted, how many people know you can even get the 1LE option on ALL versions🙄 Btw, just ZONK the entire car, terrible!
I totally feel your pain!
It looks like a honda in the front and the body is so bulky i miss the 1969 camero. Way more stylish.
Is this something that the customers, via some kind of survey, said they were maybe interested in or is this one a those --throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks??? one of my neighbor drives a Camaro, or so i assume. ive never heard an engine note from that car. prolly a tesla in a camaro shell, its hella quiet, lol. It should be a crime to do this to the Camaro line lol. Thank you for taking to time to bring this one to us, @Raiti's Rides!!!!
I really wonder if some car companies even listen to their customers.
They made a mistake my redesigning it at all. The previous looked So much better. Especially the RS trim on up.
This is so very true Chris!
Another mistake that they should have done is increase all the sides, from the doors and front/rear fenders to be HIGHER so that it will be in a class of its own. If they do that, then I will buy it definitely. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
Raiti's Rides no problem. Keep making videos.
Perspective from the Australian market: Camaros are sold here, converted to RHD here in Oz. However, only V8 models are offered. When the 2015 Mustangs were sold as factory RHD in Oz, Ford Australia's initial order was for 2000 Ecoboosts and 2000 GT's.
They quickly found that Oz buyers weren't interested in the T4, and waiting lists ballooned for the GT while T4's remained unsold. I don't know about the USA market, but here in Oz, muscle cars have to have a V8 to have any chance of selling in decent numbers.
That is very intersting! Thank you for sharing that!
Im very concerned with the lifespan of 4turbo engines. As long as you dont push them it should last a long time right?
That is a good point!
Mine is a 2016 and it has over 85,000 miles on it. Ive had no problems whatsoever.
Just don't beat up on it take care of it and it last forever. That's for all 4 cylinder engines.
A four-cylinder engine in a car that heavy is absolutely a mistake, they should keep four cylinders in lighter weight cars only.
I appreciate you sharing your input and perspective! Thank you for watching!
Hi James, this 6th gen Camaro on the Cadillac platform is less than 3400lbs with the I4 turbo. It can hit low 5sec 0-60 times and decent 1320 et’s. This is the best platform Camaro has ever stuck its badge. With a few mods the LTG engine is hitting over 300hp and even more torque. I realize the 4 cylinder turbo makes some folks cringe. Believe me I was there. But a Camaro with near 50/50 weight distribution and less than 3400lbs makes for a great combination.
Not everyone wants or needs the power of the 455 HP LT1 SS or the track burning gut wretching crap in your pants scary power of the 650 HP ZL1-1LE. So yes the 275 HP turbo is a good choice at a reasonable price point for those that want a more civilized sports car while still experiencing extremely good ride and handling. And for 2019 for the first time ever you can equip the turbo 4 with the 1LE track package which means you get many of the track ready goodies that come with big brother ZL1-1LE giving it far more bite and character than the standard package. And with a 0 to 60 mph time of 5.4 seconds it's nothing to sneeze at. So bottom line is you get a lot of fun and bang for the buck with Junior while also saving some money at the pump as a daily commuter.
Michael Manjin thats what I dont understand there acting like this isn’t fast I have the same motor in my ATS and it’s fast I even beat my friends v6 mustang it’s almost 300 feet of torque and I dont want to pay insurance on a V8
I just figured since they had the V6 this doesn't make sense.
Thanks for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Fun daily commute, good fuel economy, with a large aftermarket to test and tune. 2019 is not the first year of the 2.0 turbo. I park the V8 during the work week and drive the 4 banger to work daily, 38k miles with zero mechanical issues and it the 2.0 turbo is a suprisingly fun daily driver. Cost per mile of commute is where the 2.0t shines.
Very true!
This would be a womans car that dosent need the big v8..thumbs up Raiti.
Thanks for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
When I think of any engine being turbo charged and super charged means more money to pay when it starts having problems 😤
I still feel the Challenger is the most muscle looking muscle car even tho it’s been unchanged for years
AGREED!
I love my RT Challenger. But the problem Dodge has is that it looks like a 70s era muscle car. If you change it, you will no longer have that old school look.
Challenger's a good looking car, but it's much heavier than the Camaro. Spirited driving on a curvy back road feels very wrong in a Challenger.
@@ListingViews I disagree, I have the SRT adaptive suspension.. and while no 1LE.. it can most likely turn circles around a non-PP mustang.
@@TheAow4321, perhaps, but the weight is a problem. I have a Camaro SS now, but before I bought I rented both a V6 Challenger and V6 Camaro, both base model obviously. The Camaro surprised me at how comfortable it was on a twisty road. The Challenger just felt like a heavy car that would prefer going in straight lines, so I couldn't consider it. I don't doubt better suspension helps, but it will always carry those extra pounds.
I would buy the mustang turbo over this camaro.
AGREED!
So would I. But it's because I like the style of the Mustang better. But I also like the style of this car. If they gave me a great deal. I would buy it.
I like the I4 not v6 idea
Times have changed,and with that goes the demand for different more efficient Engines.A fourbanger is absolutely alright today.But the V8 never goes out of style.Thanks for the vid from Sweden.
No Camaro should have a 4 cylinder. I think they do that just to sell more to those who can’t afford the higher priced models. Not a fan of any Camaro today. You still get 👍🏻👍🏻though. 😎🇺🇸
I feel your pain Larry! I am so frustrated by what Chevy has done.
Its nice having that option
I would just think a V8 & V6 would suffice. Sounds like a lot of extra tooling, R&D, etc...
All I can say is that Chevy kinda messed up the front end but otherwise, the car is good
I totally agree with you!
Raiti's Rides bra sir, your almost there, 100k subs
My deepest condolences to whoever wastes $27,000 on this trash
John Vazquez yeah lol
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
i spent that much on a used 2016 fully loaded 2ss 😁
At Denver altitude combined with weight difference, lbs/hp is nearly a wash between the 2.0 and 3.6L V6. That's why I considered the 2.0T given the price difference and the slightly better gas mileage and future tuning options. Both engines have to be revved to get horsepower out of them. I wonder if they'll try a 2.7L variant from the truck line. Right now it appears the 2.0L is dead for the 2024 model year.
This would have worked really well in the late 2000's during the gas crisis. I don't see anything wrong with it besides it not being a true V8 muscle car. I'm sure die hard American muscle fans are gonna hate it. Would be a really good track Camaro.
I totally agree with you!
After changing the body and coming out with the 6th gen, Camaro wasn't the same. That 5th gen body was more aggressive looking!
My dream muscle car! Awesome job Joe.
Excellent reviews, Joe!!! I'm a new subscriber this morning. May-haps you can review a 1LE Track Performance Package and give us your perception of the difference in body roll and grip in tight corners. The Camaro chassis is supposedly great in standard trim, but even minimal body roll, for me, is a drag around town with all the U-turns. Basically, is it $4500 worth of flatness? And, does the V8 turn the Camaro into a boat, without the 1LE package?
Thanks for the compliment and for joining the Raiti's Rides family! I will try to track down a 1LE for you. The Camaro still handles well but obviously the 1LE just brings it to a new level.
That engine has more real power than the majority of the V8s in the 60's Camaros. All those numbers were gross HP/Torque now it is net numbers. Still can't beat a V8.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

You should a review on a v6 1le camaro. There’s not a lot videos on it and I think your video would stand out.
As European, I have only two options - this turbo or 6.2, 3.6 is not available and as 6.2 is out of my budget, I went for 2.0 Turbo. The pickup date should be this Tuesday, so looking forward to it. I think 2.0 Camaro has its place on the market, especially in Europe.

Thanks for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
@@RaitisRides I really appreciate the detailed updates with your perspective. 😁
I honestly like that idea. The problem is that people cry when Cadillac can't differentiate their cars from Chevy. I mean it would be awesome if Chevy put the 3.0tt and 3.6tt into the Camaro. Ford and Lincoln for some reason don't seem to get complaints about sharing engines. But when Chevy and Cadillac do, it's almost blasphemy for doing such a damning thing.
I would buy a twin turbo for sure! That's a dope idea
@@kcmartin22
I would too. That seems to be the trend now, they need to stop focusing on the older demographic. If they focused on the younger generation, they could possibly bring in more buyers. That and do some updates to make the car more appealing and allow better sightlines. I know after awhile you get used to it, but most only test drive it for an hour or so. Because more than likely the consumer can't adjust to the sightlines quick enough to be comfortable after an hour.
Have always liked the Camaro..had a 81 and loved it...it had a V8. I like the new ones and agree the wheels on this one are boring...would like either a darker gun metal look or chrome. The only thing I don't like is the interiors but I do have to say they have improved them from the last generation. As always great job!
Thanks Dale for sharing your great input! I really appreciate your awesome support!
I think that a significant production of v12 engines can reduce the cost of production of engines in general based on the principle of redistribution of work mentioned by Adam Smith, it also increses the job offer
Hello Mr. Raiti. 1.) Here in Detroit we too have been talking about some mistakes regarding the Camaro. Somewhat surprisingly, the Challenger continues to out-sell Camaro. The 2.0 LTG? I "grenaded" the turbo in my 2014 ATS. Ceramic particulate found in #4. However, I find raging on the turbo a real kick because of the low end torque. 2.) I am hopeful that the 2020 Mustang HPP adds new interest in SCCA Trans-Am allowing younger generation weekend racers to have fun. (Add cage and Harness.) 3.) Have you ever been to the Woodward Dream Cruise? The week before, and leading up to the third Saturday in August? Bring your "crew" and family. Additionally, last observation: I would like to point out cruising Woodward IS alive, it has just evolved into more modern hatchbacks and current production Detroit iron. The lead sleds, 40's, 50s, 60s, & 70s do still also show up on Fridays and Saturdays. Tony, 64.
How in gods name did they think that front end redesign was good looking. That’s just fugly in comparison to the mustang.
I feel your pain!

I am glad that I could share it with you!
I'm sorry Chevy should have stayed with the V6. The only ones I can see owning a 4 cylinder Camaro are New drivers who want the look of a sports car without the horse power.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
Hi Joe 80s camaros had 4 cylinder options but they were awful had like 83 horses something like that, also we had this here in europe as a 2016!!! With the older better looks
This would be my choice if I were to get the Camaro. Combine economic gas mileage and weight distribution but get that muscle car look. I used to own a '96ss but this has plenty power for regular street use. Don't see the need for 455 hp unless you plan to go track days regularly. May look into 1le package for some extra handling goodies and nicer rims.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this one Cyrus!
Raiti's Rides no prob Joe. While stuck at home I’ve discovered all these cool channels. Particularly like the sports and muscle car reviews. Keep it up and stay safe!
there is no zonk big enough for that engine
You hit the nail on the head!
Another amazing video from my guy Joe!
I've never been a fan of the front fascia of the Camaro but it looks simply beautiful on this trim.
The interior in my opinion is in the top 5 best looking designs for a sports car. I do not like the location of the vents nor do I favor the lack of visibility of windshield but I like this interior over the mustang.
The price seems strange for a car with horse power no where near 300. I guess it's worth it but it seems like people are paying more for the name than anything else.
Any who love the design but I would only get it if it was cheaper.
That really means a lot! As always I really appreciate your input!
Can you also mention if the car has adaptive cruise, lane keep assist, blind spot?
I will do that for you! This has everything but the adaptive cruise.
I get this car. Iam currently looking for a daily driver. The options are civic, Carolla, and others I won’t mention, the point is there front wheel drive and just don’t appeal to me for a fun to drive daily driver. This Camaro is rear wheel drive, duel exhaust, and has in my opinion great interior and exterior styling with way more power and fun factor than the civic and other coupe’s
Chevrolet's offered a 4-cylinder in the first year or 2 of the 3rd gen Camaro. Funny thing is this 4-cylinder has more power than the z28 did in the first 3 generation and almost as much as the 4th
i have the choice between this spec Camaro brand new and a used nicer spec Ecoboost mustang or challenger sxt. any recommendation on which I should get?
not a big fan of reviews that you've done in the past with cars that have entry level trim packages, but this was worthwhile watching, you don't expect to see a Camaro with a four cylinder engine , you're probably too young to remember this but in the 80s they had the Mustang SVO. Which was a four cylinder high-performance version of the six-cylinder 5.0 L engine.
I appreciate your feedback! I try to bring the variety.

@@gregholman2930 Exactly. It's really sad. America can't keep up with the imports. I've got real leather on my Mazda for $2000.00 less than this Camaro! Now that I've had leather, I'll never go back.
I feel your pain!
You are so very right!
Great points!
4 cylinders mostly sounds like a vacuum/lawnmower, v6 sounds like a prepubescent raspy v8, and then the v8 just makes you jizz in the pants.
I love the analogy! LOL
@@RaitisRides hey thanks buddy
I just got my 19 Camaro 1LT and works just fine. I guess, it depends on what the driver or owner is looking for. 275hp is as good as V6. My minivan is V6 but it only has 266hp, but works the same. I actually feel more power with this 2.0L than other V6 cars. If the driver is power and speed conscious, then go for higher engine size. What do you expect for a 2.0L turbo with a base price of 27-28k? Dont expect a luxurious interior. This is not a luxury sport car. Those are just eye-candies. It works for me pretty well.
I read today that Chevrolet only has plans to keep this 7th gen Camaro through 2023 , and then will cancel the platform entirely. So get the ZL1 soon, unless you would rather have the Cobra 500. Or even the 350. Lots of other great choices to be had.
Very good point! If only they would figure out that if you build a better car people will buy.
@@RaitisRides if you could just see out of the Camaro, and maybe put luggage or groceries in the trunk, and maybe fit passengers in the rear seat? Something small yet fast to go up against the Demons and Shelby's. Chevy just can't seem to get it right.
Was hoping GM would have made a Cruze based coupe where the 2.0 turbo would have been a great addition. But GM in my opinion, made a mistake in trying to make the Camaro an all in one sports coupe when its really not.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
A little tiny peephole, on an old door...hehe. At least it has hood struts.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
I like those rims Joe
That motor is pretty.
What turbo is oem?
I am glad that you liked tis one! That is a good question! I will find out!
You can definitely tell that you are not a fan of Camaros lol
But the more I see the v6s in person, the more I get a Pontiac feel from them. Aaaaaand that's not bad!
I would be more than happy to get a ZL1 ;-)
idk man, i cant get excited for "muscle cars" with no muscles.
That's what I'm thinking.
Very good point!
AGREED!
Not going to race . love the body style and the turbo cant wait to test drive. When i have the money
Joe how u doing? Joe for a 4cylinders is not my cup of tea. I saw you talking about the Chevy Camaro u realy educate me of buying one i remember u were talking about the Mustang n the Camaro, i went for the Camarp 2019 n let me tell u that 2019 Camaro is like having a rocket for an engine for a v6 i don't need a v8 . U know what i thank u for that tip. Joe take care n be safe my friend
I've been good William! I hope things are going well for you! I am so glad that I could help!
I was pleasantly surprised at the visibility in the Mustang. I couldn't drive the Camaro with its low visibility. I also need storage space. The Mustang's center console can hold so much more. And imo the trunk space in the Mustang is very much appreciated. Still I can appreciate the Camaro for folks who love them. The governments are really pushing for more fuel efficient cars. EV will be the cars of the future. The 4 cyclinders are buying us some time and are imo a better option now than all electric. England has already designated that after a certain year all new cars sold there will have to be all electric.
Thanks for sharing that input and perspective! I always enjoy reading your comments!
Have you done a review on the 2019 V6 Chrysler 300s?
I need to get into a Chrysler dealership!
Well Camaro is Cancelled after 2023
Sales are down.
not likely
@@RaitisRides due to fugly SS & hideous tail lights on all. You are right the red goggles look a bit better.
Raiti's Rides if I buy the 2023, will its depreciation slow down since it was the last? Lol
Cancellation is rumored for 2023. But no one really knows for sure. Only Chevy corporate. Few people really care what happens to it.
That front end is looking like that hideous 5th gen 10-13
AGREED!
I'll keep my '16 Caddy ATS 2.0 Turbo 8spd for daily.
