Regardless of engine, the 2022 Camaro is the best-driving muscle car of its segment, edging out more expensive sports cars when it comes to behind-the-wheel thrills. Poor outward visibility and a tiny trunk limit its practicality as a daily driver. If you can live with these downsides, you'll be rewarded every time you drive it. If not, the Mustang and the Challenger deliver similar thrills with fewer flaws.

2021 Chevrolet Camaro 1LT 2dr Convertible (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
I am a 78 old man and I have always loved cars that make you feel special
And add a positive upper in your life. I love my Camaro, it looks great and it makes me feel young. It handles great interior is great, back seat area a little tight, but I am the driver so back seats don’t worry me. It handles great rides good, looks great top up or down. I highly recommend for the adventurous … type. Sincerely, Richard Basile
Like a Vette, but with emergency back seats!

2021 Chevrolet Camaro 2SS 2dr Coupe (6.2L 8cyl 6M)
2SS with 1LE Track Package. Lots of power (of course) but also really spectacular handling with the 1LE. As a previous Corvette owner, I was very surprised at how sports car like the car is. Interior is also very comfortable (for front seat occupants) and much higher quality than Corvettes of 10-15 years ago. Much like a Vette, very limited storage inside the cabin. A small center … console and a glove box is all you get. Not a big deal, if you’re looking at this as a sports car, but if you’re looking at it as a fun passenger coupe, it might be disappointing.
Back seats are useable for adults if the trip is short (less than an hour). Over about 5’9” and you have to tilt your head to the side due to low rear seat headroom. But still, unlike my Vette, if you need to throw someone in the back for a lift home or something, you have that option. If you have kids up through early teens, completely useable back seats for routine use.
Trunk is actually fairly large, but the trunk opening is only big enough for carry-on size suitcases. Completely useable and sufficient storage for daily driver use, but medium-large suitcases and such aren’t getting in there.
In all, if you’re in the market for a fairly “no-compromise” sports car, but would like just a touch more practicality, the 2SS Camaro with the 1LE package is a fantastic option. Plus, it’s a Chevy. It’s about $20k cheaper than imported equivalent cars, you can get it fixed almost anywhere in the USA and parts won’t require a second mortgage on your house. I’m very happy with the purchase.
LT1 Vette for less!

2022 Chevrolet Camaro LT1 2dr Convertible (6.2L 8cyl 6M)
I just bought Dodge Ram 3 months earlier because only vehicle I could find for under Msrp. I went to get part for my wife’s Camaro and saw the Camaro convertible I always wanted . Someone ordered it and changed their mind. I thought about it if I don’t buy I’ll always wish I had v8 convertible. I bought it with no regret. Sound alone worth buying but the electric top is fantastic. Car … does everything fantastic. Did 7 hour trip to beach and seats comfortable. Ac fantastic and msrp was under 46 and I didn’t get charged over. No convertible is equipped like this for the price. Not a rattle to be heard.
