Thinking about a new Camaro
 

I have been thinking about buying a 2023 or 2024 Camaro. I've been looking online to see what is available. I know I want the 6.2L engine. There are only 3 or 4 colors that I like, one of which is black. There are several different blacks available. Right now I'm thinking about the 2SS but may consider a 1SS. I thought about a ZL1 but I don't need that much power. There aren't many available near me that I like. I found a new 2023 2SS in Louisiana that I really liked. I called about it this morning but it has been sold.
I looked for a new Camaro forum and found a few but there is not much activity on them.
Does anyone have a forum suggestion or any info on a good dealership to find a car?
Thank you, James

Gen 6 Camaro forum is active. I have a 2019 1SS 6sp manual. My wife and i drove the entire old RT66 from Chicago to Santa Monica, following the route as much as still exists. We had a blast. The car performs fantastic. It keeps my 1969 company.

Contact Denny Barker at Todd Wenzel. He is a Camaro guy and member here.

Thanks for the info on the Gen 6 forum. I joined a Gen 6 Facebook group that is pretty active. Driving the entire Route 66 sounds like fun.

Charlie, I looked at that dealer's site. They don't have many Camaros right now. I would like to find something a bit closer to me, hopefully within 250-300 miles away. I found a 2023 ZL1 that a really like but, as I said in my original message, I'm not sure I want something with that much horsepower.

Denny is good at finding stuff.

I would order a 2024, assuming they are still taking orders and building them.

They stopped taking orders. I've been looking around to see what is still available. I want a 2SS. There are only 3 colors that I really like. I found a new 2023 that I really like but it is 400 plus miles away. I've been talking to the dealer and may end up buying it. I'll update the thread if I do.

The dealer that has it can work something out with the local dealer. I did that on the wifes car. It was in NorCal and we're in SoCal. They brought it down for us.

Jeeez, don't let distance prevent you from getting what you want. 400 miles is nothing. Go get it. I drive 1,000 miles for NOS PARTS !! If you really want something, distance should the last concern...:flag:

If I buy it, they included shipping in the price they gave me. I'm going to make a decision this evening or tomorrow morning.

The deal with the car I post is not going to happen. The car has a lot of extra options and one of them is the Recaro seats. I am a big guy so I was worried about how comfortable I would be in them. Just so happened that a dealer near me got a car in yesterday with the Recaro seats so I when to check it out. They are a bit uncomfortable for me. It's not real bad but I figured why spend this much money on something I'm not 100% comfortable in. I found a black car that I'm interested in. It is also 400 miles away. The dealer won't do a deal over the phone so I guess I'll be dong a road trip.

I just put a deposit to hold a new 2024 2SS. The dealership is going to deliver the car maybe as early as tomorrow. I'm waiting for a call to find out for sure when. It may be a couple days. I'm excited to get the car. Attached is a picture I got from the dealer's website.

They are great cars, auto will go low 12s stock.

Or even faster with some mods!

As the front license plate on “Red Alert” would say, that Nickey Camaro looks “Evil, Mean, Wicked & Nasty”

Post us some pictures of your new Camaro when you get it home. Glad you located what you were looking for. 👍

6th gen Camaros are an exciting platform. Tighter, a bit smaller and lighter than the 5 th gens, but the chassis is far superior. Fun for every day, drag strip or road course and that include the 6cly.

We are in the process of finalizing the paperwork this morning. They are going to deliver it Tuesday. I was hoping to get it sooner but it is what it is.

It is supposed to be delivered at 8 am tomorrow. I'm getting excited.

Well ??????

It showed up at 7:40 or so this morning. Here are some pictures.

Nice! Congrats James:headbang:

Beautiful, congrats!

6 miles and a full tank of gas to burn...way cool.:biggthumpup:

Congratulations!!

I like it, congrats. I have a 2015 2SS Indy Festival car that I should upgrade to a 6th gen.

They're great cars. We just got one for my wife. This is her 3rd 6th gen.

Congratulations!

Very nice - congrats!

We love our one. (Special thanks to Bruce, Lyn and Holly).

Love your license plate John and Peni! (And it was our pleasure!)


Your 2SS 1LE looks great!

Nice looking car. I looked at a couple 1LE cars but I didn't like the Recaro seat. It was uncomfortable to me.

We really enjoy the Recaro seats, find them very comfortable.

We really enjoy the Recaro seats, find them very comfortable, specially on longer trips.

I picked the car up from having it ceramic coated last night. I finally got all the paperwork to get it registered and got a license plate for it today. Here are a few pictures I took today.

Looks great!!

Looks awesome in black.

I have bad news and good news concerning my new Camaro.

Bad news is that I'm selling it already. I just listed in on here.

The good news it that I will be picking up it's replacement. I am buying a 2023 ZL1 with less than 1800 miles.

I should have bought a ZL1 instead of the 2SS.

Now thats definitely an upgrade!! Congrats!!

Nice. Gen 6 is definitely the best Camaro ever, from base on up.

So, of course, it is being discontinued.

Is there any hope for a 7th Gen?
