2016. There's no way Ford gets everything right the first model year.

Not bad, I wanted one before I got z. I just couldn't get over the interior on those early models but they did start to work on it in the later years.

My biggest interior "complaint" about the SS2: the gauge cluster is located at the front of the center console, under the dash, and is not very comfortable to check.

I've been driving 4-/6-cylinder cars for too long. That V-8 sounded gooooood.
madwi and Ghostvette like this.

A client brought by his 2013 ZL1 Camaro last week and took me for a spin. He'd upgraded the supercharger pulley (that's all he'd done) and the car was making about 610hp. It was stunningly quick. He did a roll from 20mph to about 85mph and if you'd asked me to reach up and take something off the dash in that run I honestly don't think I could have.

With a car like that whatever is on the dash would come to you (and you'd better have a catcher's mitt).

Camaro interior is a joke.

The SS2 interior is on about the same level as my '09 Touring, IMNSHO. Leather seats (heated in front), home link, decent stereo, and such. But I only drove the car around the block and didn't spend that much time in it. In any case, it was good enough for me.
