But I already have 2 5th gen Camaros, so they're actually too small for my applications. If they were SS or ZL1 rims, they'd already be in the garage corner.
All the new V6 are impressive. More torque than G bodies HO V8'S and another 150 hp. Love the Pentastar 305 hp V6 and ZF8 speed in my Challenger, along with the 34.5 mpg imperial. Hopefully the 6 speed in his Camaro has better shift programming than the truck I drove.If I were to buy a newer Camaro, I’d get the six cylinder. Even in my wifes 2016 Equinox, that little engine has balls . Nice score
Is it due to the direct injection? I know the 3.5 in our 2010 Challenger was meh. Known oil sludger, used oil and had the dreaded tick. So far 0 issues with the Pentastar. They seemed to escape the timing chain issues GM and Ford have had.Same engine as my wife's Colorado. I ported the throttle body and put a knock-off K&N intake on it when it was new. Then I tuned the transmission to shift like a 2015 Camaro and it woke right up. The biggest mod I made was adding a catch can to protect the intake valves from caking in oil sludge. We are just shy of 80K miles now. Watch for oil consumption as it'll eat a pint half way through an OCI.
