Anybody out there that owns a 2011-2017 Camaro ? I am thinking about buying one.

There was a red ZL1 at pine belt Chevy in the show room that looked good


That was a few years ago however

Out if the colors I've seen in this thread, the white wins by a C-hair over the black.

The alien green will most likely date the car faster than the white or black colors. As far as resale, goes do not forget red.

At this point, I'm thinking I like the white the best. The white/black theme is what I did with my El Camino too.

I didn't thread all the way through this thread, so I hope some of the info I'm posting here hasn't already been said, if it has, then I guess this can confirm it. I've own/ed three of these. 2013,2015 and still own 2017. All three suffer from the exact same issues. 1. There is a extremely bad blind spot, you can not see it in the rear or side view mirror, nor can you turn your head to see because you end up looking at either the side edge of the seat or the back window post (however it's a sports car, so I can over look this). 2. no back seat. I mean there is one there but no one but a small child is going to fit there (again sports car). 3. you can hear the gas sloshing around in the tank (I play the radio not a big issue) 4. They went cheap on the floor mats and wipers (Sounds petty, but for the price GM can afford quality stuff) 5. On the freeway you can hear the air pulling in around the windows. 6. cheaply painted. both the 2013 and 15 model would chip all the way to bare metal just from pebbles on the highway, 2017 does as well but not as bad (again for the money, I would have liked them to see them care about this important detail) 7. your parking break button and the mode button (change from touring,sport, and snow) is right with your cup holder and are easily hit/pushed as is the four way flasher button right in front of the shifter, so if like me you place your wallet or keys, glasses etc there, as soon as you put it in park, you turn on the flashers. (There is more than enough room on the dash for all of these.) 8. The seat belt isn't attached the seat (not a big deal, however once the door is shut and you reach for it, the buckle can and will scrap the door panel. I realize most of these aren't really big issues. I do think 4-7 GM should address though. But over all the cars run really well, All of mine we'er/are V6s. My 2017 has over 320hp (328 I think), and let me tell you, that is more than enough hp for a driver. They all handled well in all types of driving. The 2017 has a slightly better turning range. Just driving to and from work and a little around town on the weekends, I can go a little over a week on about $30 in gas. All in all if you like chevy and want something sporty Camaro is the way to go. Unless you can afford a vett. Anyway. Hope this helps.

I've always had a soft spot for synergy green... had it been available on a new model at the time we bought our 2016 mustang I'd probably have bought one. Wife didn't think the available colors were "pretty" though.

Than again, I'm biased .

OP bought a 2015 LT. See other thread.

I have a 2010 SS LS3 6 speed... bought it brand new and absolutely love it.

Might as well throw up my Camaros too. Both Texas cars. Flew out, drove them home.

Delivery day! 2010 RS/2SS L99 Auto(bot) Transformers Edition (1 of 822 2SS with auto trans. 1784 total). Classic Chevy in Dallas.

2013 ZL1 convertible 6 speed manual. 1 of 53 'verts with 6 speed manual in Crystal Red Tintcoat. Henna Chevy in Austin.

Nestled in bed...

Mine is actually called the Krypton green. The synergy green is a little darker and has flakes in it. I actually wish I went with the synergy green when I got my first one, instead of the yellow. ....Oh and one more issue I forgot to mention, the 2017 models the seat do not recline all the way back, which sucks, since I like to take a nap on my lunch break. One year in my 2013 I was stuck on the freeway for over 5 hours, dropped the seat back and went to sleep. Can't do that now.

We bought a 2010 new and have 100k miles now. V-6, RS package. Has been a great car

Is this a new paint issue in general? Our 2010 Challenger was terrible as well. Our 2017 Challenger GT slightly better. Still have touched up a couple of dozen chips, Another Destroyer Grey demo had tons of chips to metal and tons of clearcoat scratches, 4000 km. My BIL said Dodge trucks around 2012 were brutal. He knows a striping guy and paint was coming off with masking tape! Daughter's boyfriend said new GMC/Chevy trucks all the paint coming off the lower rockers. Is it the water borne paint?
