2022 Camaro SS

Tan? Yuck.

How much room does this Camaro have for the driver? Can a bigger guy fit comfortably? Your new one looks great. I love to "hear" them. Thanks.

I was sitting in one at the Chevy dealer a couple weeks ago. Plenty of room up front, but the back seat looks useless for human transport.

I rented an SS in 2019 for a weekend. At 6-1 and 215 pounds I felt cramped.

Back seat on the driver's side is utterly useless... if the driver is more than ~ 5'6", there's 2" or less between the front and rear seat for passenger legs. The front passenger can move forward and get a not large passenger in the rear behind them. But it's best for kids or short distances only.

I wish they made the roofs taller like the late 60s Camaro's. I'm 5-9 and I feel cramped in one plus a minor car wreck and your head hitting the ceiling is not a good thing.

As one of those guys who managed to make it through the 60's driving SS's a W-31 and a Hemi Plymouth, the yearning for a car like that Camaro of yours still lingers,,, kinda. But I know now that those cars have a lot more performance than I have talent. I'll just watch.

Nice ride! Great color! All the performance one could ask for, what's not to like?
Congratulations!
Bow ties forever!

The thing I like least about the new Camaro's are the interior color choices - black, gray, or white. How about a nice tan?

GM interiors are, ahem, not the best in any color. I speak as a former Firebird and Tahoe owner. Plastic fantastic springs to mind. Guy at work had one of those newer Camaros for a short while. It rode like a plank and the visibility for the driver rivaled that of a Tiger tank. Holy C-pillar blind spot, Batman.

For a real nasty recent interior the last model of Ford Explorer takes the cake. Guy I know had one as a company vehicle. The plastic was hard and ugly, half of it didn't line up, much of it squeaked, and several pieces regularly fell off.

If GM wanted me, as a former Camaro and Firebird owner, to consider buying a Camaro in 2010 and 2018, when I bought my Challengers, this is what it needed:

1. Not to look like a Hot Wheels car.
2. Have a useful trunk.
3. Have a little more head room.
4. Make the greenhouse a little bigger (That would kill most of the "Hot Wheels" complaint, and the head room issues.)

And if they really wanted me to consider it, make it look like a '70-'74 Z-28 and I'm there. They messed up making a tribute to the first gen car, and then in 2016 doubled down on the ugly. Looks alone kept me away, but the other issues ended any chance of me buying one. The continued good sales of the Challenger have proven they nailed it pretty well.
