Is the 2019 Chevy Camaro RS a HIT or MISS? 

V6 is 335 hp and 284 pound feet of torque. With a manual it can do 0-60 in 5 seconds flat. ( that’s faster than a Challenger R/T and Ecoboost Mustang)

Look at those sales people in the background just waiting for their next victim, lol

I had this car as a rental for a few days in black while my Audi was in the body shop. And my goodness, was this a fun ride. Especially around corners. Visibility was an issue at first, but I quickly adjusted to it. That engine sound was my favorite part! Will miss this car.

What's insane is I've got one of these, and with the NPP dual mode exhaust from factory, aftermarket intake, aftermarket throttle body, and of decent tires, I was able to get a 13.3 quarter mile. In a v6. I never would have thought. I've had 5 liter mustangs, ls1 camaros, and the holden gts hsv/pontiac gto 6 liter, and my lil six banger camaro is faster than all of those I've had.

The 2016-2018 Camaros are my favorite years.

All zonks aside, the car looks and sounds great. P.S. Happy New Year Joe! All the best to you and Lori. And Tom of course... :D

5 years after buying this car new for my 16 year-old son, it drives just as well today as on day 1. It is a shamelessly hot car and I love seeing on the road. Younger brother inherited it 2 years later. Super cool kids already, this car was the cherry on the top of an incredible high school experience for both of them. Will be sad to see it go soon as they move on in life.

A total hit when you see it in person is awesome, love your videos man great content greetings from Bolivia and happy new year

Thanks for reviewing the RS v6 instead of just the run of the mil SS review! So I owned a 17 2lt 2.0 and hated having it on a Camero just because it doesn't feel like it belongs in that car. It was pretty quick and prob no much slower on a 0-60 but the sound is better on the V6 for sure and thinking the power delivery would be more consistent than that 2.0. One thing when I owned mine is the lost opportunity of not having a cut out on center of the dash to hold key's, Wallet, phone etc. That would have been smart b/c that dash is cheap and slippery too. Im so glad they put leather material on the side panels where your knee hits against... that cheap plastic surface was horrible. I think the V6 might be the right choice especially after the nose job on the SS!

Just got this vehicle, it’s truly amazing to drive and the infotainment system is next level. Checking my phone for live diagnostics about my camaro is very handy

Hey Joe!! Great review!! I am jealous of the weather in Florida!! Here in Idaho It was -13 degrees F this morning!! Happy new year my friend!! God bless!!

Almost to 25k subs!! Glad to say Ive been here since day one!

Thnx Joe. Really great review - very informative. Nice car - sounds surprisingly good for a six. Having said that - I’d only be happy if it had the V8. I took this gen Camaro for a test drive when it was introduced. The limited visibility was an obvious issue. I’m guessing it’s something that would become less of an issue after some seat time. Look forward to your video on the SS

That's how a Camaro review should be, inspecting all beautiful angles 👌🏻👌👌🏽

Thank you so much for teaching us who where around when the first where around in 67 !

Bigger RS and SS badges please. 17 I think was my favorite with the last 5 years designs. Awesome video Joe and Tom!!

I LOVE MY 19 CAMARO !!!

I believe the v6 has 335 hp, the 275 hp comes from the 2.0 turbo.

Hey raitis!!!! Excellent content to start the New Years and like I said before I saved this to my watch later videos, but I already know it’s gonna be great!!! And if I know u and camaros lol imma count the number of times zonk is used lol...

Great vehicle. We have a 2021 Wild Cherry RS V6. Blind spots yes however if you know how to drive properly there is absolutely no issue. Great review !!!

great presentation, Joe. I think you'll find that not only chevy, but several other car manufacturers are going to that hard dashboard for a reason. The softer vinyl or leather top tend to crack over the years, unless really cared for, due to the sun damaging it. That's a nice looking car, and I've always been a V-8 man myself, but after watching the video and how fast this 6 banger takes off, I might have to reconsider. You'd make a great car salesman Joe. You got the presentation down cold. Keep em' comin', thanks!

I love my 2019 RS its fast! I never have an issue passing on the highways

Great Vid. Again . It’s a plus when you add a driving experience to your vids. I’ve been researching Camaro’s for a Year & I’m getting one .... at some point. Mine Must be a 2SS , if it looked like that RS I’d like it a lot more. I’ve been thinking of getting a 2017 2SS to save money, but I’ll be Looking at the next 2SS refresh.

I picked up a 2019 RS 3LT convertible last month. I love the new front grill and rear lights. The car is total fun to drive and I was impressed with the quality and leather. The 3lt has blind spot and backup camera so back visabilty is not an issue. The mustang convertible has no metal cover for the roof when folded so you see the canvas and arms when the roof is down. Leaves and dirt get inside. Totally unacceptable. The Camaro metal roof cover looks super expensive. . Great job on your reviews. Keep up the good work .

Just got the 2SS in jet black. I love it!!!

Nice review, I prefer old camaros and mustangs but this one is looking really good. And I like the interior it is simple for todays standards.

Your idea about the bage is the best thing I've ever heard. I own one and I was just thinking a completely black bage would be great till I heard your idea.

I love reading comments about the Camaro😂 my respect for the car has gone up actually since I was younger. I guess for others it’s not the same, but there are a few things I would change of course, because no car is perfect. Also I see a lot of things about the car’s visibility, and I’m not bragging, I’ve just been more fortunate than others in the fact I’ve sat in high end low slung exotic cars, and I’ve seen REALLY low visibility before, so cars like the newer Camaro I’ve learned to deal with their visibility better. What a great video though dude👍🏼 I enjoy a lot of the videos about the 2019s and so far I think this is the best ones I’ve seen. 😁😁😁

Hey my brother. You gave us the 4cylinder specs. The v6 Camero is 335hp. Just an FYI. Keep it up :)

Joe, you gave the HP and torque ratings for the 4cyl. in this video. s/b 335hp @6800rpm and 284 lb ft torque @ 5300rpm. I myself like the tail lights.

I didn't like the look of the vehicle online, but test drove one today and it was gorgeous in person!!

Love the cooling sets to in the summer awesome upgrade . It ges in the 109 degrees in fresno.

That V6 would look even better with an Overkill supercharger on it. The 2019 RS restyling looks nice in this color, in particular around back. Good review

You know I'm a Mustang fan through and through, but I still love the Camaro (and Challenger!). Personally, I really like the looks of the RS (front and back) and I REALLY like the fact the Camaro still offers a V6......I'd much rather take a V6 over an I4, but the V8 is still king for me. I wasn't aware the V6 kept the 8-speed auto though, so that was interesting! I'd love to see Ford bring back a V6 (perhaps the 400hp/400lb ft 3 litre twin turbo from Lincoln)..........just so long as a normally aspirated V8 is still available. Anyway, really enjoyed this one, thanks Joe :)

Ive been watching your videos for so long man without realizing that I haven’t subscribed yet, u always on my recommendation lol you’d get more views if you updrage your cinematography (make it crisp) other than that, your team rocks!

Do you think this would be a good starting car?I just turned 16 and I’m considering going to buy a Rs.

Great review very thorough in my opinion and ( got yourself a new subscriber ) your right about the RS BADGES they should replace the bowtie especially for the $$. better brakes would be nice as well but $40k for a V6 PASS!!!

The RS 3.6L has 335 HP in it & the 2.3L 4 cylinder has 275 HP in it. The Camaro has three different trim levels.

I checked this out. I'm in the market for a used 6th gen Camaro. That V6 has great power. Nice sound too! Looks like it shifts at nearly 7,000 RPMs.

i bought a 22 camaro ss 6m trans, traded it for a 22 2lt RS 3.6 10A. i much happier with the v6 than the v8 i think the V6 is more responsive , plus a quicker throttle responce, and 10k less money.

Ricky Bobby: I'm not sure what to do with my hands. Raiti: Hold my beer

I love the camaro platform. Especially seeing mustang and camaro both in person. Camaro has its downs but has a higher quality set up. Which to me is more important. And the SS in hyper blue looks amazing in person I think along with the mosaic black rims

Idk if I’m mistaken with the fully loaded rs should have a digital camera to make up for that bad rear visibility and when will you be doing the ss review? Love to see it cuz ur reviews are good

What is everyone's thoughts on the shadow gray metallic offering on the Camaro?

Love my 2019 V6 Camaro. My last vehicle was a V8 Mustang and yes I took advantage of that GM rebate money.

I purchased a 2019 Camaro rs and i love the car...but i wanted to know if theres a way you can use the gps on the screen without useing a wire connecting to your phone?i want to use it wirelessly

Would you mind preforming a review on the Dodge/Chrysler "Charger Hellcat"? I just watched Savagegees's 2018 best cars review and that vehicle was one of his favorites! Thanks!

Hey Joe nice video 👌, to the car is great you seem to be having fun driving this thing but needs to have a better view out of the windows.

Really starting to like the new Camaros. Great review!

Fun fact I see a 2018 camaro v6 with 335 hp beat a 2017 dodge challenger rt with 375 hp from a dig.

Bro u show all the angles so well u detail every thing so well tell us every thing we need too know could u tell me how much u half too pay monthely if u wanted a one of these Camaro RS and i would put a louder exhaust on it almost straight pipe it it sounds really quiet

@15:35 the driving/view impression is that of an old c4 vette. That was exactly the same comment I had driving the 6th gen Camaro. But I think the 6th gen is a huge win. I realize Mustang is outselling but the Camaro has great looks and phenomenal handling capability. The interior suits me just fine.

Wow I like the look more than the v8! Real tempting! Edit: After hearing the MSRP, more tempting when it's slightly used and half the price.

I like Camaro's, I kind of wish Chevy would have done a Hide away Headlight option to pay homage to the 1967 RS/SS model.

I love the look and performance of this Camaro. Hopefully you can get your hands on the new Blazer that's coming out this week. I've seen a few dealerships do walk arounds already. Good review.

What color is this? The Shadow Gray Metallic?

I think they’ve done all they can with this body style. It’s basically a modern version of the first generation. I would love to see them do a modern version of the lower, sleeker second gen Camaro!

It was honestly just the grill, ever since they connected that middle piece together it’s looked fine to me

Outstanding review!! Nailed it once again Joe. I think this is a very interesting option. Not a bad msrp and it looks pretty good. A little desapointing at 275 hp but it definitely gets the job done. I really can't complain at 40k. What I like the most is that there is no Chevrolet logo in the steering wheel, instead you get the word camaro, that to me that shows they did put some effort in the interior details. I know it's probably not a big deal but to me it is. I truly dislike the Chevy logo on the steering wheel.

Is the 8 inch screen there really a larger display than the 6 inch? Or it is just more glass and less plastic? I’m trying to decide how much to worry about it for when I do finally get one.

I actually love the way the new tail lights look.

This guy quotes the V6 engine puts out 275 hp when in fact it is 335 hp and 284 ft pounds of torque.

Beautiful vehicle!!! No zonks for me. Love both the exterior and interior colors. If plastic brings down the price go for it Chevy. Another outstanding video. 👍 PS. I don’t understand the paddles. Enough with the blind spots Joe. 😀 Just kidding

V6 2LT you get leather on top of door and knee pads with NAV, light package and memory seats, no change from 16-18, What's the color name? Looks darker than Riverside Blue, but overcast day.

I liked the limited visibility, makes me feel like I’m drivin a TANK.

For my unpopular opinion, the body really hasn't altered drastically from the 2010 comeback body. The newer ones just have more refined, sleeker body panels and a sharper front end but overall still shows of the same overall body style.

This will be my dream car!! Great job Joe.

In the CORRECT COLOR I think the SS 1LE is absolutely gorgeous and more aggressive looking. As far as the RS I love the placement of the bow tie on the grill... this is growing on me 👍🏻

Imo the 1LE package, while great, is a waste unless you live in an area with perfect roads and plan to track it very often. $4,500 is a LOT of money. If you plan to daily drive this, get a base V6 with a stick. Maybe the 2LT for heated+cooled leather seats/extras. RS package looks nice but is $2k and is purely aesthetic, minus the upgrade from 18” to 20” wheels, which is not a good thing btw. Pro tip, go with smaller wheels and bigger sidewall tires. Car handles better, is significantly more comfortable, tires are way cheaper, and car will be slightly faster due to lighter rims. A 2LT manual with v6 rings in at $29.5k, and that is before any haggling. $27k our the door is common on these, which is bananas. You get a well optioned dedicated sports coupe for the price of a fully loaded corolla. Love the 2019 looks, personally.

I very much prefer the 16-18 model year RS. It was perfect. This IDK kinda meh.

Very good review!

Hi joe, I am considering buying the camaro now and really want it, the only thing that is keeping me away is the visibility... so I need your advice, do you thing that I will get used to it and be fine (this will be my first car) and will be perfect for a first car?

Brembos are available in the "Heavy Duty Cooling and Braking" package that is an option.

OOF! 40 grand for a V6 RS is kinda steep if you ask me That same amount will prob get you the base Mustang GT V8 or the GT Prem which is 39 grand and some pocket change back. Styling wise for the exterior, the Camaro LS/LT looks bulky and plain looking to me. The SS is the most horrible looking children of the bunch. No pun intended. I feel that the 1LE Track package just like the Ford Performance Pack gives the plain Jane Camaro an aggressive look. And it includes the bigger brake calipers from Brembo, performance suspension, upgraded cooling, LSD and black out hood and a nice factory front splitter. I tried to match the Camaro turbo 4 banger with the Ecoboost Mustang with all the bell and whistle similar to what both could offer. The Mustang Ecoboost Performance Pack 6 speed manual fully loaded with goodies comes at around $42,755. The Camaro 2LT 1LE Track pack oddly even with all the possible options comes around $38,845. Point to Chevy for pricing. Thou 2 points have to be given to Ford for having Magnaride and Active exhaust on the Ecoboost, while one point is given to Chevy for giving the option of the Brembo 6 pot big brake kit. Gauge cluster, IMO Ford takes the win here with the 12 inch full LCD. And I find the center console LCD on the Camaro looked like a Android tablet that is glued on to the dashboard to me. Chevy was trying to borrow the style of air vents similar to the AMG GT but failed to give it a nice airplane feel to it. I am wondering why is there a light bar on the cup holder. I don't need a light to see where i put my sippy cup. Ford gives you the option to have the 10 speed auto even on the 4 banger is another point to Ford. The Camaro 1LE Track package has only a 6 speed manual option. Otherwise, both have decent Premium sound system options, Bose for the Camaro and B&O for the Mustang. And both can be fitted with Recaros seats. I watched another RU-vid channel where one guy traded his Camaro for a Golf GTi. His main complain for the car is the hefty insurance premium and financing since its a Muscle car. And the boot and rear legroom is terrible. It prob down to individual taste and brand preferences. You can't have best of both worlds and you do have to make sacrifices if you decide to buy any brand. Great video And thank you Tom.

Does anyone know if these would be the bright silver painted or Gray painted split spoke wheels? I like this wheel and want to use it for my build but I'm realizing there are these 2 color options and would like whatever Joe is showing in this video. Thank in advance. Great video as well.

Wait u can get a v6 rs with that shows all the gauges like the ss dose ????

“Pin the RS on the camaro” lol

Anyone that says this car is a miss, is either fanboys to other brands, or they need serious psychological evaluation.

I agree with the model badge placement. Bowtie in the front center, model badge in back center would be fine.

I will see if i still have it. Keep up the good work.

I think the RS looks fine. It's just the SS that looks odd.

Very much considering purchasing this car later this year. I'm too poor for the SS model. It's almost 10K more, plus extra insurance & extra gas. Can't do it. It's going to be my all year daily driver, so the lower V6 cost will be great. Something else to consider is not only does the V6 get better gas mileage, it also takes 87 octane. That's pretty rare for a performance car, and a nice benefit for those of us wanting good performance on a budget. I'm debating between this, Ecoboost Mustang and WRX. I live in a region which does get snow and has a good amount of hills, so the WRX would be the 'safe' choice. However I think I'll be able to manage with a RWD car on snow tires and extra weight (sandbags) in the trunk for added traction. If I do go with the V6 Camaro, I'm going to skip the RS package. Honestly doesn't seem worth it. The 20in wheels don't appeal to me that much, and I'm kinda meh on the headlights. I'll be buying aftermarket wheels when I get the snow tires anyway.

Hey ik im Late as balls but I'm thinking about this for my first car im 15 btw is this a good option in your opinion ?

RAITI'S, EVER SINCE I SAW U TALKING ABOUT CAMAROS I WAS IN THE MARKET FOR A MUSTANG AND WHEN I SAW THAT CAMARO AND U SHOW THE POWER ON THAT CAR, I END UP BUYING MY CAMARO 2019 1LT AND LET ME SAY THE CAR HAVE POWER FOR A V6 335 HP. IT MAY NOT ALL THE BELLS N WHISTLES BUT I'M HAPPY WITH IT, IN WERE THE MUSTANG IS MORE MONEY FOR LITTLE EQUIPMENT N THE CAMARO LESS MONEY N MORE EQUIPMENT. THANK U FOR THAT TIP. I LOVE MY CAMARO. GOD BLESS YOU

How does the RS look better than the SS?

I'm 5'11" and 190 pounds. As other's have mentioned, the cabin space is just too small/tight for my body. I would not feel comfortable on a road trip. I'll stick to my Challenger instead.

Hey Joe! sorry the only Camero's I still have a love for is the 1967 - 8- 9, to me they were the fun ones. Call me an old softy. Great job on the video.

I have a 2021 RS V6 6 speed. Most fun I have ever had. Good review!

Happy New 2019 Year to all Raiti's Ride community !!

I GUESS THEY NEVER MISS HUH

mine is a 2023 3LT RS v6 10 speed auto with the quad tips edit this was my dream car made it happen right when i turned 20

Happy new year Raiti.

I'd be interested to see the 4 cylinder version - I think that, along with the Mustang ecoboost and the Jaguar F-Type 4 cylinder, would make interesting Autocross triplets.

2010 camaro is my favorite year model hands down

Brembos are available with the 1LE or as a separate option for about $3,000

Question guys, so i have been going over the Camaro models. from 2019 to 2020s models and i have noticed that not all models have the LED Lighting in the interior, the LED Strip in the passenger seats. I am not a car person, so would anyone be able to help me out? Those the LED Lighting in the interior come with certain models only? Can you find that interior LED Lighting in LS or LT Models? Very confused

Watching this video just make's me like my new STI even more!

Thought it had 335 or something around there. Think that was the 4cyl turbo hp-tq you gave

how many loads of laundry can they get uinder that washer lid/hood and lint filter/hood heat extacter?

Mpg's? 😬 But beside not knowing the mpg's I luv the presentation thumpz up
