We had a 2017 Camaro RS convertible V6 and it was a great car for the 2 years we had it. The V6 has a decent amount of HP and it had great pick up, certainly enough for a young person these days. Best of luck with it.

Mine too:

Funny thing is that I was born 7 years before my first Camaro was built. My son has the same age gap with his first Camaro, too!

I just noticed we got an added bonus: it turns out the car came has a set of 20x8.5 front and 20x9.5 rear, Black Edition, 5 spoke mags off the 6th gen Camaro SS. That is why it has mongo rubber on the car: 275/40ZR20 fronts and 315/35ZR20 rears!

The car originally had the plain aluminum 18" wheels. At least this explains the lack of TPMS sensors in these wheels. They must have left them in the old 18" wheels when they took them off the car.

----Steve,,,Cool wheels. At least your son will be able to clean the wheels easily as there is a ton of clearance around the caliper and spokes!.....Bill S
