Camaro - Magnetic Ride Control review Worth the money in 2022? 

the magnetic suspension has been around for over 20 years....search Bose magnetic suspension

@Haru Yamagucci: Enough to pull me back to Camaro, after 28 years in Japanese cars - AWD turbo Eclipses/Talon, G35, G37...

@@icanfartloud Took 20 years to get the bugs out of it. Someone below compared it favorably against his '15 ZL1 mag-ride.

Thank you

Zl1Speed43 I agree I think it's one of the unsung heroes of the modern sports/muscle cars

No problem

adrian97c Interesting, I thought the MRC was supposed to provide both a smoother and higher performance drive. What did you end up buying?

iG W They’re amazing for sure, glad you can appreciate good engineering regardless of country of origin. I’ve seen too many Europeans dismiss it as “American crap” when it’s really a special car

@@Spaceman2484 I've seen too many AMERICANS dismiss it as "American crap"!

You will love it!, I have heard the M6 is the one of the nicest manual transmission in any car!

I have seen the reclining seats pop up before, i have witnessed my girl falling asleep just about every time we are in the car... apparently its to comfortable and reclining isn't something to slow her down from enjoying the nap. Perhaps a head band over the headrest to keep your head upright could suffice? (Please note my girl also napped on the back of my harley... no backrest or anything to hold her on... it was not a fun experience... somethings about big rumbly engines...)

Thank you for the support!

yes, all amor aftermarket exhaust systems re use the motors for NPP you unbolt the stock system and bolt the app onto the aftermakert setup.

TopHatPlus thanks, great videos, do u know how the car changes the sound of the exhaust?

touring and snow/ice go threw the mufflers which is the inner tips, and sport/track go around the mufflers which is the outer mufflers, you can see the difference in the build up of dirt on the tips. i primarily run sport/track

TopHatPlus so there is two different mufflers? Two on each side?

Basically, only tip goes through the muffler and eliminates the high pitch crackles and one if just a low traditional v8 rumble. Aftermakret mufflers the same effect just louder.

Chevrolet invented it. Ferrari uses it under license.

We have a a 2017 Fifty in the group that was picked up on November 2016 and has 114,000 miles on his car and no issues what so ever. Needed a transmission flush and about 18 oil changes. Told me today he’s used 6000 gallons of fuel. Magnetic ride control still works like day one and that’s winter driven as well.

@@TopHatPlus Glad to hear it and hope it stays that way.

74k on my 2016 2SS just got the suspension inspected and they said good as new .

I had an 2020 SS without MRC and the suspension was ok at speed but below 20 you could feel it was kind of crappy. Creeks and whatnot… it was pretty good but I’m ordering a ‘24 and I’m definitely getting MRC.

i'll do my best, will have to do some experimenting

The sport mode is fricken awesome! The corvette is a machine designed to go excessively fast!

TopHatPlus i do not have driven the new Camaro yet because they are very very rare here in germany and only since 2 months officially available but i sit in one and it has MUCH better seats than the C7 !. View at all direction especially forward the C7 is better imho. I expect the Camaro not much slower, i any, than the C7. Is it ? What i like in the camaro is the sunroof and less price for same powertrain. But they should have gave that fabulous Performance Data Recorder for option as in C7 !!!

let's not tell the insurance companies that! shhhhh

kubanskiloewe Less than half a second difference 0-60, usually more like 0.2 second difference. So yeah you get the same engine, awesome exhaust note, and two extra seats for almost the same performance (plus potentially $20k in your pocket)

Absolutely nothing, just a consistent ride.

how can you not?

metalmeltdown31 it does not have auto wipers.

Okaythen001 mag ride is about $3000 per corner of the car. The main difference is the fluid used is electrically charge to change dampening. Hopefully if never breaks!

These AC Delco MagRide shocks are $300 rear, $350 front (ea.). And yes, this is a genuine GM part.

@ Chris Griebal good luck with that..... If you aren't doing it yourself... Dealers are about to mark that price up

did you get it?

@@TopHatPlus i was until they threw an extra $5k as "market adjustement" so I got up and walked out. Just found same car at another dealer and gping there nxt wk

PatrickG was using a go pro session and it doesn’t have great audio but things have gotten bettter, tire noise is still high.

thank you

That person would have been buried with there car if they had hurt my girl...

It was yellow when i crossed the white line and it raining. Perhaps you should be in the car before you make assessments about peoples driving? Summer performance tires in the rain are quite well known for hydro plaining.

mitchell wood are you having some sort of a rage episode? You seem distraught. If I felt like I had a error and it happens often I would say so. I was the one driving, a brand new car may I add. I drove a SUV before this and I can confidently say they do not perform the same. I have had many stories shared with me regarding hydro planning so some times it's better to get to know your car before you kill people.

Not running a red if you cross the line during a yellow, driving in the rain life.

TopHatPlus That depends on where you live, I suppose that’s the case where you live. In other places, accelerating into a yellow is still a moving violation as you’re going to be required to stop.

Ricardo Gracia 2SS, mrc. Nav, npp, sunroof, rally stripes, 5 spoke split rims.

how much did you pay for it (car)?

46k CDN

TopHatPlus that's really good! Was that cash price? The car is well over 56K with all the options you got

@@selcukkis6860 Not sure on the exchange rate, but if you're talking US dollars, you're about $7K high. My car has everything Top Hat has - minus the stripes, and it's blue. when I bought mine (used), I did a build&price on Chevy's web site. Mine priced out, on a 2017, at about $49K. I was surprised it let me build&price a 2017, in May of '18.

it looked red before he turned into it

You cannot confirm he broke any laws at that intersection.

Always always ALWAYS be defensive when entering intersections, it's where the highest percentage of accidents occur. Accelerating through a stale yellow light is a terrible habit and a tough one to break...and it will cost you eventually. When approaching an intersection with a GREEN light, cover the brake pedal with your right foot (don't apply it, just hover your foot above the brake pedal) and coast through. This will help break your bad habit of 'accelerating through yellow lights' while also allowing you to stop sooner with a faster reaction time since your foot is already covering the brake pedal...should something unexpected happen in the intersection (light changes yellow, car turns in front of you suddenly, pedestrian not paying attention and steps out etc etc). Also when turning left. never rush the turn, always take your time before deciding to commit to the turn, and ensure no one is running late through the stale yellow or red light before actually turning. Once you're IN THE intersection before the light turns yellow, it is 'your intersection' so to speak. You are even allowed to wait until it's red 'if you feel it's still not safe' to turn. You have the right of way to clear that intersection when it is safe to do so. Never feel pressured to turn early. Hopefully this will help you and avoid any possible accidents. Hope you're enjoying your Camaro! :)

Always drive like the other guy is out to get you!

JCTiggs it drive defensively like how you mentioned. Funny enough when I took my first driving test the examiner made me accelerate when the light was orange/yellow even though I had more than enough time to break. I paid for an instructor before hand and would make drive like you previously stated.

Thanks for the sub, i also subscribed to you channel, how do you like the hero 5 camera, i am contemplating getting one soon.

Thanks for the sub ! I really like it. The picture quality really seems good. What are you using now?

Hero 4 Session, the audio is mediocre inside and nothing but wind outside, and no mic inputs... i really need a waterproof camera with mic inputs, and decent audio quality without a mic.

The Hero5 Black gets an external mic later this month. It may be what you are looking for. The standard mic is better but I have only used it a little so far and no real outside work
