My Review: 2010 Camaro SS

[ifcar]

I hate the Versa with a passion.

It has long been established and is frequently reaffirmed that you have nothing of value to say about pretty much anything automotive.

I hate it because it's exceptionally bland and ugly.


However, at 10K, a Versa 1.6 seems very attractive.

The Versa competes more with the cars a rung down.

I'd still rock one, though. It's huge inside for such a small car.

My dealer sells Versa 1.8S manuals for just $200 more than the 1.6.

It matches the Sentra's size and refinement at a lower price. Just because Nissan positioned it strangely within its own lineup doesn't change what it competes against.

I'm just saying that I would probably cross shop it with the smaller feeling Accent, Aveo, etc.

The Versa really sucks. Outside of having a family like the Klumps I can't see any reason not to get the Fit instead.

Quietness? Ride comfort? Interior quality? $4,000 price difference?

If you can't use a car, what good is the car?

Give me a 430 hp GTO, and then we'll talk. The only things that car had going against it were a 1990s design and bland styling.

If given the choice you would take a Civic over the Camaro?  Well I guess you can't see over the steering wheel so that makes sense.  I would take the Camaro, but I would definitely take a 2006 GTO over the Camaro in a heartbeat.

Order:

Civic Si
boring-ass Civic
Camaro

But if we included some other cars, my list would be completely different.

Mmm, GTO.    I'd honestly be happy with an LS1 version, and that's good, 'cause they are getting pretty affordable.  Just need to see if there's a way to transport skis and bikes (there's probably a hitch available for it, and 1 1/4 is just fine for a bike rack), and I might buy one in a few years.

Even the LS2 is becoming affordable.  I've seen some for $15K.

+1.

You just said you hate it with a passion, then you said you find it very attractive.  You can't even form subjective opinions about cars.  You need to take a remedial English class on how to express yourself.

it's an inexpensive transportation appliance. it's almost supposed to be bland and ugly.

Way to read things literally. I'm not, nor do I pretend to be an English major.


It's getting real tired you trolling my posts.

I suppose. It's just so awkward (Sedan).

How am I supposed to read it?  Figuratively?  Point proven. 

I'm not trolling your posts.  Just bring something of use to the table instead of wasting space.

How do interpret me mentioning price and engine size in relation to style? I was talking about value.

[MrH]

If you really hated it with a passion, it wouldn't be attractive at any price point.  Just like how I don't think a Sebring is remotely appealing in any way.

I'd buy a Sebring at, say, $8,000 new.

I don't think I would.  My current Protege5 is worth less than $8k.  I'd take that over it.

[the Teuton]

I think the best thing about the current Sebring is the warranty.

[ifcar]

Yeah, but a new car with a factory warranty has its appeal. The Sebring certainly isn't a bad car by the standard of a used economy car.

ug.... lol just caught up on this topic only to see versa, sebring, civic... wtf at least some one mentioned GTO.

I'd take a GTO hell I'd take a Camaro V6 over all those stupid cars (civic isn't stupid, just slightly mentally retarded) let alone a SS.

[SVT666]

If I grouped all the cars I might consider for my next car, the order I would consider them in would be:

1. 2011 Mustang GT
2. 2010 Mustang GT
3. 2010 Dodge Challenger R/T
4. 2009 Infiniti G37 Coupe
5. 2008 BMW 335i Coupe
6. 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP
7. 2009 Pontiac G8 GT
8. 2010 Camaro SS

It's a car that I would be driving every day, and the last thing I want is my daily driver to be a chore to drive, and the Camaro is a chore...no matter how addictive it is.

[Sigma Projects]

I know you don't like the Camaro, but sad seeing the infiniti and bimmer above the G8s

Did you read my review?  I like the Camaro, and if I was looking for a weekend only car it would be much much higher on the list.  Unfortunately as a daily driver it would suck.

The Infiniti and Bimmer are both coupes, and the G8 has a strange driving position.  The relationship between the pedals, steering wheel, and seat aren't quite natural enough for me.  My legs are bent more then I like and my arms are straighter then I like.  It's not make or break, but it does put it further down the list.
