The rest of the car intrigues me, but those first experiences left a bad taste...
Well, I mean coming from my Z. The plastics in the doors are either better or equal to the Z. Hands down. Most of the visible dash is leather with some plastics around the gauges. That plastic could've been a Lil better. BUT...

As a whole... the car interior feels like a luxury cars of 5 years ago in quality. Considering I'm paying $51,000 that will have acceleration and top speeds of a Porsche Cayman GT4 and get 1.2g's of grip for $45,000 brand new?

The tiny bit of visible plastic that may not be the most visually pleasing is miniscule.

The Camaro is a quality vehicle. Bold colors, great quality leather. Attention to detail on the baseball stitching. Beautifully lit and organized gauges, SUPER HIGH QUALITY button feel, intuitive my link, 53" ride height, and 52" with lowering springs.

Corvette engine
Corvette grand sport suspension
Excellent seating position.
Good steering feedback...

I mean... the Camaro is hard to beat. Remember, I had a budget of up to $130,000 at first. Then lowered it to 90,000. I'm not saying the Camaro ended up being the best car, or best looking. But it has a balance of sport and muscle that's unique and truly mind blowing.

It feels more natural to go from a Z to a Camaro, than to a Mustang if you are upgrading performance.

The difference between the corvette and Camaro is not so distant, that I had to jump into a more expensive vette. It really is a complete package.

The Camaro is a car you rent for a week to fall in love with it.

IT GROWS ON YOU.

Put this here for reference.
