Sadly the test vehicle was an automatic, not a stick. There were several shift options to choose from including manually with paddles on the steering wheel, very video-gamish!

The car was easy to get into even with my giant 13 1/2 work boots on. The first thing I noticed was the lack of visibility, disturbing in the parking lot but didn't really notice it once on the road. The acceleration was impressive for a 6cyl to say the least. Very smooth and constantly pulling into the 7's ?!

I did manage to get some twists and turns and the car was perfect. You can shut off all the stability and traction assist if you choose and the car still sticks.

As for the back seat, yes, I had to throw the kid in the back. For some reason the salesman wants to come along when you show up with a teenager and a video camera !

20-60 roll out Yes Sam, we brought our own music!!

The RS has unique tail lights also.

Saw a silver one at Wilton Chevrolet (CT) yesterday. Didn't stop to look. The additional markup won't last long. My local Dodge dealer has a bunch of Challengers just sitting. I would think that is indicative of the demand for the Camaro (after initial puchases are made).

Let's face it, there cars (Chally, Camaro etc.) are not practical in anyway, in a time when practical seems to be dominatiing everything in your life, and they have the nuts to gouge the pricing. You think the guy that sells 50' boats is looking to sell over MSRP right now.? He'll take a box of crackers, some old lottery tickets and anything else you have just to get it off his lot. Like everything else, wait a few months and you will be in the drivers seat bargaining wise

Just got back from my local dealer (Hoselton in Fairport NY) where they were delivering a red SS. Of course I couldn't drive it. Looks better in person but I couldn't get all over it because the owner was taking it.

Same type of deal when I walked into my local Buick store to buy a new 86 Buick Turbo Regal. I knew exactly what I wanted, even had all the option numbers, but the sales people tried to sell me everything but what I wanted. I suggested they call their zone manager and have the car special ordered,

but their final words were, "if we cant order it on our computer, you can't get it". I was sooooo honked off after wasting 1 1/2 hours on my lunch hour, I never did buy one.....
