The 2016 Camaro is over 200 lbs lighter than previous Camaro, and it now sits 20 lbs under the Mustang GT at 3685 lbs. While the body-in-white’s mass was reduced by 133 pounds, the structural rigidity is up 28%. The entire car was analyzed for every gram that could be removed, with major weight savings coming from an aluminum instrument panel, aluminum front suspension links, and a 26 lb loss from the 5 link rear suspension. Under the hood is the 6.2L engine LT1 engine, first introduced in the new Corvette. Resting in the Camaro, it does include some unique components, such as the tri-Y exhaust manifolds. It’s rated at 455 HP and 455 lb-ft. There are four different driving modes, altering the throttle mapping, engine sound through the dual-mode exhaust, power steering calibration, stability systems, magnetic ride damping calibration, and even the ambient lighting if the vehicle is equipped.
MSRP as tested - $46,095.00

Fun fact: Chevrolet actually asked 5th gen Camaro owners if they should improve the 6th gen's visibility and sacrifice the looks. The 5th gen owners voted that they were comfortable with the low visibility .

@KevBoy3D 8 лет назад

But they're fifth gen owners, why ask them of course they won't mind it?

@whatiwant8898 8 лет назад

+Kevin De Smet why ask people that haven't owned a Camaro what they think of driving and owning one with the visibility? They did the smart thing asking previous owners.

@hochhaul 8 лет назад

I'm glad they left its proportions in place. The styling is great because of it. Just like the Lamborghini Countach I fantasized over as a kid, it's horribly impractical yet completely bad ass and I still want one, even if I can't see out of it.

@randymiller1610 8 лет назад

@jonathanhawryluk9101 2 года назад

I own this exact same car. Same color, same transmission, same white leather seats, etc. After 6 years I have only put about 13000 miles on it. It's virtually in perfect condition. Every time I get in that car is like the first time I drove it. It's always exhilarating ALL THE TIME! I have had zero problems with it. If you're an experienced driver like me, visibility is non-issue, though I do admit that it is poor. The screen positioning is not really an issue for me too much because I hardly drive it, and in fact it works well if you have someone in the passenger seat wearing a short dress or skirt... Hopefully it's not your Mom or Sister 🤣

@Mattjosh50 8 лет назад

@waydigga1982 8 лет назад

+Matthew Gray i consider the old school camaro to be a muscle car as it looked like other muscle cars (namely chrysler muscle cars and other gm cars) of the same era. The mustang has always been a bit odd. Not sure if id consider mustangs of that era a muscle car. The camaro has transformed though. The modern camaro and mustang are direct competitors. I would consider them both pony cars or american sport coupes. The new charger is a full size sedan which puts it in a completely different category. The challenger on the other hand is the only true modern muscle car. Its big, heavy, built with str8 line performance in mind and most importantly, it looks like a modern version of a 60's era muscle car. Its in a class by itself in that respect even if auto mags try to compare them.

@Mattjosh50 8 лет назад

Mustang vs Camaro vs Corvette ... In Europe neither of these three is that easy to get and, although I was never super interested in muscle cars, I must admit that recently I have been tempted by a Corvette, a Mustand GT350(R) ... or maybe a Camaro! These three cars, in their current generations, are said to be really really good.

@petertimowreef9085 8 лет назад

I'm missing the engineering you're supposed to be explaining. Don't get me wrong, there was nothing wrong with this review, I just think that there are plenty of car review channels out there all ready. I would've loved to see some more in-depth stuff, like diving under the hood for a few minutes. Point out everything, say what it does, what has been improved over the previous model, what's different than it's competitors, and just talk in general about where you think the manufacturer came up with proper engineering solutions and where they cut corners. I think like this would be an excellent way to differentiate your videos from all the others, by doing what you're good at.

@eideticex 8 лет назад

These 2016 Chevy sports/muscle cars are finally what I grew to love about GM originally. For awhile they were just keeping up with the crowd or leading the crowd depending on your interpretation. Finally they are showing some actual progress, new features that are actual innovation instead of being lifted out of the competition. Think the only change I would make if I ever am lucky enough to own one, adding on a second battery for the instrumentation. My biggest gripe on these newer cars is electronic gauges that are useless when your battery gets too low, typically when you most need them and a backup battery just for the instrumentation would solve that. Also, is it just me or is he making the drive from Half Life 2?

@ryanhard5273 8 лет назад

The magnetic suspension is also an option on the Camaro. Even the v6 can have it.

@HockeyLAKings119 8 лет назад

my dad used to work for gm, so he got to take a few Camaro's out for test drives. He hated the blinds spots on it, especially backing up, so he bought a challenger instead lol

@luisrosales9349 8 лет назад

The challenger is not a muscle car. Its a boat so all you dodge fanboys can shut up.

@sleepytimemeditation3618 8 лет назад

it's got more hp and tq than the mustang and camero and is also alot heavier so I would say it is a muscle car, and a good looking one at that, but everyone has their preferences. they are all amazing cars so try not biting anyone's head off for picking something different from what you like.

@luisrosales9349 8 лет назад

The challenger can't make a left or right turn. All it can do is run a 12 second lap stock with 700 HP. Derp

@Burnout762 8 лет назад

+Javier Cervantes how does weight have anything to do with being a muscle car? Last time I checked it was an American car with a big American v8.

@spitfirepaintball16 8 лет назад

lol no one said it wasnt xD

@Rebel_71123 7 лет назад

Muscle cars are the ones that look mean and have a V8 and suck at turning so the Challenger definitely is a muscle car. It seems like you've never heard of the Scat Pack, Hellcat or Demon.

"I would literally buy a POS" Oh. Okay.

@bagelbytes69420 8 лет назад

lmao a POS come on bud... the new mustang is a peach. It feels well built, has gobs of power and looks the part too. Sure, douches generally own them, but its a very refined car, and probably the best one ever made. i moved from a 2013 to a 2016 one and its great.

@evilkillerwhale7078 8 лет назад

BagelBytes I've driven it. I've tracked a 2016 350R, the normal GT350, and multiple other variants. It's no peach. It's still crappier than my C5 Corvette. It's comparable to a 20 year old Corvette. The Camaro? Comparable to a current Corvette. The Mustang's less reliable, heavier, has less power, and runs more expensive. It's a POS. Period.

@bagelbytes69420 8 лет назад

***** tell that to the track times bud. It's obvious you're a fanboy. I like Corvettes but the 350r is a beast. It did nurburgring in 7m32s which is .8s slower than a pagani zonda F. Compare that to the Ferrari 458 Italia at 7m38s and you get the picture... Also, the GT350 bested the Z/28 around the nurburgring too. Check the lap times

Challenger's interior doesn't compare to the 2016 Camaro, BUT, a muscle car isn't a computer-toy for frat-boys the challenger IS the definition of a modern muscle car (the dodge challenger is much more encrusted in society than any other competition including stingrays) RANDY FOR SUPERVISOR

@TransAmRAFormula 8 лет назад

The "skip shift" 1-4 has been around since the 4th gen F-bodies... You can buy a $20 plug-in bypass from the aftermarket. I've never bought one for any of my cars because I rarely drive slow enough for the skip shift to actually engage so I never felt the need to spend the extra money for the bypass. But it is out there.

@motorsportz8040 8 лет назад

Thing is ugly. Last gen camaro was better looking. The rear is just bad. Somebody at GM should be fired.

@sleepytimemeditation3618 8 лет назад

for reals, the 5th Gen rear end is freaking gorgeous, and probably my favorite camero. the front facia is pretty aggressive tho, I like it.

@davidmitchell5638 8 лет назад

I like how you review every car like you're a potential buyer. You say it how it is, kinda like CNET on cars, only your reviews are much more in-depth. Too many car-reviewers are unbiased, and that's not very informative. I enjoy watching your videos.

@jeladsnikpoh1289 4 года назад

It's cool that one of the absolute RU-vid GREATS is in my part of the globe! I love this car (before they ruined the design in '19) and am considering purchasing a used one. I know that Ol' Scenic Columbia River Highway all too well- you're Near The Dalles. You're usually making your epic-ness closer to Troutdale! That beast handles those kinky turns beautifully! I need to get my modded Ninja 300 back out there, had great smiles with my C4 and C5 Vettes on those same roads. Even drove a limousine on it (haha)! I'm in Hermiston Oregon now, I love cars (and enjoy intelligent company), would be cool to meet you some day, Jason!

@fritze01 8 лет назад

My daily is a 2014 V6 1LT, I have taken one of the new 4cl models for a spin. I agree with the more cramped cockpit, there are alot more switches and buttons on the 6th gen. I had the same experience, great ride and steering, awesome car, mind you I would never buy a 4cl muscle car. The sound of that V8 was awesome, if you buy any of the new Camaros, either 5th or 6th gen, get the dual mode exhaust. The lag in the gas pedal is there by design, probably to get those EPA numbers and reduce wear and tear. I put a throttle controller on mine that has economy and sport settings, it has turned the car into a whole other car. The highest setting is nicknamed "Beast" mode and it is a two handed affair. Rev High Stealth 2.0 is the name of the controller, I would guess they haven't got one out for the 6th gen yet.

nice, diggen the throw back to the 1st gen rs(option) hood/vents. Ill always leave it to GM/Cadillac to figure out how to make a great car like this as the competitors always play catch up......whilst over emphasizing what "they" offer as an "experience" over GM products....tisk tisk the "experience" they describe is headaches and regret....but hey go ahead and go for a ford product or a mopar. Grip balance and adequate power what ive come to expect from gm(camaro, vette, cts-v) in the last 15 years....but again you can go with cars where "bolstered" power is supposed to mask the short comings of performance "inclined" "Muscle" cars lmao. If u wanna drive in a straight line and fast why buy a new car....lol theres more to driving daily etc than hard line pulls.....if they want something to brag about in a straight line they should whip up a rust bucket sleeper but what do those people know about pride and real hot roding fun

Cylinder deactivation is only available on the Automatic cars. Also, the car comes with launch control on the automatic and the manual. Next time you do a 0 - 60 test with a Camaro, you should try using it, you won't smoke the tires so bad.
