As far as the Camaro, I tested one against the Z back in 2010. I liked the way it drove, but I hated the lack of visibility and the cheapness of the interior. The exact car I test drove had interior trim falling off. Literally falling off.

Hopefully, they've upgraded since then.

As a former camaro owner, I really wanted to love the new camaro. The interior on the concept car looked pretty good, but GD when I actually sat it one, I knew it wasn't the car for me. But I'm not knocking anyone who sacrifices interior for money and speed. Just wasn't my cup o' tea at the time.

Sure. I mean, they look mean as hell on the outside, and they are pretty damn fast, especially the SS.

But I liked the Z better.

If they had made a better interior and/or shaved a few pounds off it, who knows what I would be driving today. And by "driving," I mean "looking at in my garage for the winter."

No, that would still be chained up sex slaves, but maybe sharing the same garage with a different car.
