Drove one today
Drove one today Our dealership got the first one today...a silver RS. Sticker is a shade over 30k. They arent allowed to deliver it until June 1st though. I did the PDI on it and drove it for 5 miles. I wasnt too impressed by the V6. It seemed a bit weak for 300HP. It drove good, handled well, and seats are comfy. Windows are very short and would take some getting used to. Inside door handles are in a weird location and I found myself having to look down and search for it. Its difficult to operate the steering wheel controls with your thumb due to the location, the steep angle of the wheel spoke towards the center and the potrusion of the horn pad out. Easier to see what im talking about rather than explain it.
On the bottom side, the sway bar links are the same cheap crap they use on the impalas, traverses, and uplanders. I can see these being a problem in the future with becoming loose and making noise. Hell they are about 14" long on the front!
Just noted a few things...I didnt spend all day inspecting it but just thought I would share my opinions and findings. Now I'm just waiting for the yellow V8 to show up.

Its to bad with all the wieght, it would no doubt run the same times as the 05+ mustang GTs. I found those to be dissapointing when I drove them. A little tweaking though and im sure there good for 13.50s with some good modding.
I think we can all agree that the new camaro is BUILT for modding !!!!
