I'm biased of course, I really don't like the car much. I am not digging the retro styling (get an original idea GM) and giant size of the car. At the very least they should have ended the retro before they designed the interior. I am glad Nissan has stayed away from the boat steering wheels like the camaro and challenger have.

I am glad, however, that GM made the thing. same with the Mustand GT and Challenger, I am glad other car companies are making performance oriented cars.

Actually you can get a pretty loaded 2 SS for $34 - $35. You won't have sunroof or some coosmetic options like the smoked gray wheels or hood stripes, but you get the leather, Boston audio, I-pod interface, 6-speed manual, 20 inch wheels etc. That's abargin in my book.

I also think the car has a lot more going for it than straight line speed. Most of the magazine reviews have complimented it on its handling. Sure the skid pad numbers are a bit behind the Z, the slalom and braking numbers are quite similar. Pretty impressive for a car built on a sedan platform that weighs close to 4,000 pounds.

Not saying the Camaro is all things to all people, but it is a bargin just like the Z is. Just a bit of a different flavor.
