The new Camaro took little from the genetics of its most recent, fourth-generation model. The Camaro has a lot of similarities with the Pontiac G8.

These were flaws prevalent in the last Camaro.

The Camaro is an excellent machine to drive. Despite the heavy Camaro’s heavy frame it glides silkily along the road. The Camaro SS maneuvers around corners like all rear-wheel-drive cars that have an independent rear suspension.

But the lack of style inside is
The combination of style and substance given by the Chevy Camaro SS offers a lot to casual and race drivers. Its high powered engine provides speed but because of the heavy weight it has lost its luster. The interior design is not for everybody but for specific tastes it has plenty to offer. The exterior is eye-catching and to die for.
