I'd almost give up my jag for one.....well, my jag is getting older you know.

I saw a gorgeous brite yellow with wide black racing stripes on it today. I was drooling!

Such a fine looking automobile!

 

Better than older versions but if you trade your Jag for a camaro you will deprive yourself from .... I don't know what but pure excellence, luxury , attraction , chick magnet and such things lol

 

Nah, I won't be trading my Jag for one. I don't want car payments. I do love the prestige of owning a jag but realistically know that my car is getting older and I worry about the cost to fix anything on it. I've been blessed that the only problems I've had have been self-induced. Living in a rural area I don't have many choices of where I can take it to have it fixed. My tech is A+ but he is very expensive. I found that out be mistakenly have him put some freon in my Yukon.
I think I would like a fuel saving car as we have to drive so far to get to anything here.
We own three vehicles. One is my husband's truck which he won't give up, it's a 2010, the Yukon which is great for utility and I can't imagine not having it and my car. I'm blessed to have so many vehicles and nice ones at that! Just love the looks of the camaro. I would like to take a ride in one. Since I have a neighbor that has one I might have to talk her into taking me for a spin in it.

 

Self-induced problems? Like what?

 

I had a stainless steel coffee mug in the very back and had missed it when unloading my car after moving to Tennessee. When we went to put the top down it broke the brackets and hydraulic fuel lines or canister. I ended up having to get all of that fixed. I had the ugly green coming from the speaker above the rearview mirror. It was a big job. I was blessed to be able to get a bracket and all the other things without having to buy a new top from Jaguar.

The second incident was blowing my engine which was a road hazard. I hit a dip and it put a hole in the oiler cooler causing all the oil to leak out. Which threw a rod in the engine block. They totaled my car but I am having it fixed.

Anything else has just been petty stuff. Seat control not working. Dash turned foggy.
Skint rims from hitting curbs. Wear on seat from getting in and out of it.

 

Maybe nice on the outside but the designers never returned from lunch to do the interior. One of the worst dashboards for a car like this that Ive ever seen. YUK

 

Oh now I'm really curious to see the inside. I'll have to stop over to the local car lot and take a look see.

 

Can't beat an original 69 Camaro. When Chevrolet discontinued the camaro, they should have waited 30 or 40 years like Dodge did to bring back the Challenger. Almost seems like a marketing ploy. Outside the car looks good, inside not so much. They should have brought back the 67 Chevelle SS instead. IMO

 

I was a tech for the local Chevy dealer in the late 80's early 90's. I still go by to visit and get the scoop on the new cars. When I was there a month ago, 4 of them were sitting in there due to brake failures. One was a brand new pace car convert that had no brakes at all with 6 miles on the odometer. They had sold it five times during the day until the new owners would come to drive it and found out it had no brakes. It was a great looking car, you just couldn't drive it.

 

That's horrible!

I looked at some online and was able to see the interior. The dash does leave much to be desired. Maybe a good chance for something aftermarket to come along and fill the void? Don't know.

Still a sharp lookin' body. Too bad they failed to make it a "total package".

 

New Camaro or Styled Box?

Same product but the styled box is appropriately named and definitely cheaper.
