I just sat in a 6th gen 2016 Camaro 2SS today and was duly impressed. MSRP was $45,000 and they were advertising it with a $1000 discount before negotiation.
The car has so many standard features and tech bits it's crazy. Customizable gauges. HUD. 25 colors of ambient lighting. Wi-Fi hotspot. Heated and Cooled seats. Heated steering wheel. Rear camera. Parking sensors. Wireless mobile phone charger. On and on.
Plus it's actually a decent quality interior. I'm not going to say it's better than the interior in my M235i, but I think it's more interesting and futuristic looking.
And then of course the performance. NA V-8 with 455/455 horsepower/torque. 3.73 LSD. 20" Goodyear Eagle F1 tires. Same platform as the ATS. 3600 pounds.
No one knows exactly how good it is yet, but Motor Trend just did a Head2Head session with it at Willow Springs comparing it to the M4. Should be published on Feb 24 so we'll know soon enough. I'm actually thinking the 2SS is going to beat the M4.
