View Full Version : Well? Will She? Or Won't She?

The lovely and talented Mrs. Thomas is considering this 2015 Camaro 2SS. She's currently driving a 2010 LS which is the base model. This would be a large step up. 426 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque with a six-speed manual. We drove it this afternoon, it's plenty quick. :yesnod:
I don't care for the black wrap on the hood -she likes it- but it's easily removed. If it were mine I'd go with red or orange stripes. When I showed her some photo's of the strips she thinks she may like that better.

For my taste, I go with no accouterments in decorations.....well, except for the race car. :leaving: :lol:
Looks good to me. Good luck:seasix::shots:

I like it!
First off, I dig white vehicles. Easy to keep clean, and they hide dirt well surprisingly.
I like the wheels, lots of folks going with black wheels and it's getting played out IMO. Although they do look good on a white vehicle. Also, I kinda like the hood too. Nice contrast with the rest of the car. I prefer the sleeper look, but it works there.
They seriously improved the rear end look on that car, I'm liking them now.
I like it, but I'd prefer dark blue, or maybe maroon stripes vs. the matte black hood. I vote yes.

My wife has been enjoying her 2010 Rally Yellow Camaro 2SS 6M for over six years now and it still brings a smile to her face every time she drives it. She says go for it.

Are they still 20% off from GM? I saw a $75,000 Camaro Z/28 for about $55k w/ discounts + 20% savings, but that was in November (during the promotion)

It may be a trick of the light but I swear the right front fender and door on that car are a different color than the rest of the body. That impression remains true through all of the camera angles shown. If this is possibly "the one" look closely from several angles and let us know if I am correct.

Ya, the door is grayish and the rest is white... Hmmm...

This'll require more scrutiny. I see it also.

Lighting angles. Car is white all over. How they screwed up the lighting on the hood to make it look like that is beyond me.

Look at the rocker panel. It is on the same plane as the door bottom and is not the same shade. I smell damage of some sort in this car's past.

Not seeing it today. My mom and dad live about a mile from the dealership. I had to stop over and help mom with some crap this morning so I took another look at the car.

Well, she got it yesterday. :cert:
I went back twice to verify there were no paint issues. She traded her 2010 Camaro LS off as part of the transaction. Did we get a good deal? Hell, I don't know. We did our research on the value of hers and the new one. We had our number and eventually got there.
It's a hell of a car I'll say that.

I'm negotiating now with my local dealer on a 2016 Ecoboost Mustang for my wife to replace her '09 Honda Civic. This will be a surprise Christmas gift! She's going from 140HP 4-banger to a turbo 4-banger with 310HP. This is gonna be fun.... :rofl:

She's firmly in the Camaro camp I'm afraid. I like the Mustang too and it's probably a hell of a lot easier to see out of. But I'm with her. The Camaro is a better looking ride IMHO. :shrug:

The rear 1/4 panels often look to be different than doors on C5 Camaros. It's the way light bounces, and just the way it is usually.
