Sweet car. I'd love to have a silver one, but don't see it in my future. Too many other things to take care of in life.

Nice car !! Do yourself a favor and get some Bilstein Sport shocks. The OEM shocks let it wallow like a pig around corners.

The Camaro interior is MILES ahead of my Corvette.

THIS. I know a bit about these cars. CHANGE THE SHOCKS TO A DIFFERENT RATE.

Did you test drive the auto as well? If so how did it compare?

I was looking at them the other day, considering one but after driving the 6 and the 8 auto, they left me completely cold. And of course no local dealers had a manual. I mean really, who buys these things AUTO?!?!

The look of the car is great, and I love the design of the convertible, but I want the power its purported to have...and didnt find in the few I drove.

You would be surprised! I'm with you. Get it in an auto and you're a douche!! Sportscar and muscle cars should be a manual or a stick.

I ran into the same problem with Challengers... 4 dealers and none had a Challenger RT in a stick shift. When I told them that was stupid, they looked at me like I sprouted a 3rd head. I told them I want a "drivers car" not some F'in slush box.
