Which Camaro trim does Edmunds recommend?

Most car aficionados are adamant that a V8 engine is mandatory to qualify as a muscle car — and we agree. Among the many choices, we recommend the 2SS trim that adds several comfort and convenience items, along with a few advanced safety features to help overcome some of the Camaro's visibility issues.
