The wagon looks good other than the Camaro 6Gen nose on it, but I'd rather buy something lighter in weight. I have a pickup if I need to haul sheetrock on the weekend, and I don't want an expensive, sporty vehicle to haul things and beat up the interior. I'd rather just have a smaller, 2 door...

Yes, the mid-sized Durango needs some competition. There are very few V8 mid-sized SUVs on the market. Towing capacity of the Durango is between 7,200 and 8,700 depending on options.

My wife has a BS. I like it, but it has problems. They did something with a pump for the DCT where it wants to run continuously with the engine off and no one in the vehicle and it can discharge the battery. This only happened once and the dealer replaced the battery for free, but sometimes I...

I still don't understand. Are you trying to say the BS and Bronco can't handle offroad? That the four wheel drive systems don't work? Not enough ground clearance for you? I think they have a lot of flaws like all modern vehicles, such as too many electronics and small turbocharged engines...

I don't think I understand what you are saying. Is it that good/retro styling is a scam? Or is it something else about those particular vehicles that offends you?

I think there are tons of "closet" enthusiasts out there that are more sensible and practical than I am. These people love the Camaro and Chevy brand and they tend to buy the cheap version of the Camaro. I disagree with thinking of them as non-enthusiasts. I think they just have less money or...

Values of the Chevy SS sedan have been holding up well also, which indicates to me there is some demand for a V8 manual transmission sedan. The values aren't in the stratosphere, but it has held value much better than a typical used car. I'm not a sedan buyer, but I agree there is a market.

There's a bridge on my daily commute that I never noticed before, but the LT1 Camaro would make a loud BANG! every time I went over it. There was a joint in the pavement there. The car was a few years old when I bought it, so maybe the suspension had been swapped out. They looked like factory...

This is a good question. I'm interested to know if anyone has insights on this. True, and springs/shocks/bars can be different between trims. That is what I'm advocating. The Camaro hasn't had high buck suspension design in the past, with struts front and multilink rear. But it handled...

I personally wouldn't care if the lower trims of V8 equipped Camaros turn corners better than the Mustang. I just want the engine power to hit nicely between 0 and 60. Manual transmission. 2 doors. And I want good sound and comfortable. To me that's what the pony car segment is about, not...

I agree with the flavor of the article, if not specifics. I think Camaro/pony car buyers want HP and performance. However, comfort and usability are also important. And so is value. If a Camaro with a 5.7 can be sold for >25% less than one with a 6.7, sure maybe go with the 5.7. It's...

I traded my LT1 for a Challenger earlier this year, so by the time the new Camaro becomes available, II will be in the market. I had the LT1 for a couple of years because I really liked it. Normally I get bored with a car in a year or so, but the 6 Gen was special in my opinion. I mostly...

I really hope if GM does a V8 front engine rear drive Buick, it will take some styling hints from the 1970 Buick GS. It should look muscular, not plain. And there should be no mistaking it for a bar of soap. Not another Pontiac GTO. Great car, lackluster styling.

I like the idea of GM working to sell Camaro to younger buyers, since the Gen 6 average was 52 years old. I think the best way is to make the product as inexpensive as possible. There are plenty of young people who want a performance vehicle, but costs are just too high right now. The car...

Both are revenue, not profit. Profit is a contentious subject that can be difficult to nail down. The point I was trying to make is subscription revenues are tiny compared to vehicle sales. Subscriptions might be a net loss since subscriptions are more recent and GM might be putting in a...

It helps for sure, but going to 18 inch wheels on the lower cars would help more, and lower spring rates or softer shocks are needed to make the car comfortable. If mirror adjustment is the cause, I must adjust them in a unique way on the Camaro vs. every single other car I've driven. I set...

I was making the assumption that GM would do a manual and automatic transaxle. GM already has these transmission and suspension designs from the front engine Corvette. No DCT needed and manual is a must have in my book. Yes there would be some changes to GM's existing designs for the Camaro...

I don't agree. The top 3 selling sedans in the US are Camry, Corolla, and Civic. I would contend that those sedans are both stupid and boring. The highest selling sedan that is actually interesting I would say is the BMW 3 series. They are sporty and sell a significant quantity, but 10X...

I liked the size of the 6 Gen Camaro. However, I do think the market is there for it to be either slightly larger or redesigned in a way where the front two seats provide more room. The rear is a package tray and should not be set up to be functional as seats except for young and flexible...

I'm not a sedan buyer. A sedan would have to be ultra cheap with really great performance before I would consider it. Having said that, something muscular more than sporty as a daily driver sounds like a lot of fun. I also think that the majority of the market for the Camaro is older. The...
