I'm happy for Ford. Why should this trigger me? I like mustangs too. There's just too many where I live.

>>16790536
Not much i can say other than have you test drove it or at least seen one/been inside in person? if so you probably already know the limited visibility so mirror-use should be a higher priority than what you are use to in most cars.

Other than that you should enjoy it.

>>16790536
Congrats man you made the right choice. If you haven't driven one of these cars before just know the biting point is really short so it'll take some getting use to and you might stall it a few times.

>Is 455 hp going to be too much?
Not at all, just don't use too much throttle and keep the gear low

Oh and ignore the jealous bus riders

>>16790548
I'll post pictures tomorrow if you want (but you probably don't care). I even got my serial number. It's waiting to be shipped to the dealer tomorrow. I was going for a V6 1LE but the dealer didn't want to sell me one without the racing cam, leather seats, bose audio and other bullshit, I ended up buying the naked V8.

People really do picture collages of brands they don't like?

Big v8s are the best cars to learn on imo. Much harder to stall when taking off which is a big part of the learning curve.

I've got a GT and it's very easy to DD, nice car anon.

How does keeping the gear low help me? Doesn't it give more power to the throttle?

>>16790573
Nah it's about 2/3s of the way up. Yah a tiny fraction of the pedal is the biting point compared to some trucks where the engagement point is wider. Unless the 2017 model is different.

Meant gear ratio so higher gears when possible. If you keep it around 2k rpm you're engine will be giving you 200 hp so it's much more manageable. See pic for a dyno of the 2016 camaro

How much you paying? They're pretty ugly fucking cars I would get a Challenger scat pack or hellcat

>modern car
>high HP/TQ

you'll do just fine if you can understand the basics. quick review on youtube (matt farah has decent how to). You probably have a helper spring so the clutch will be easy af. if brand new your clutch might start feeling 'different' after a certain amount of miles.

Take like 1 hour of just learning the biting point in a parking lot. forward, stop, forward stop, over and over. Try reverse too.

>i wouldn't buy an SS

>>16790694
Odds are at the end of this year it will get debut but the z28 is kinda the end of the line car for camaro. It comes in the last few years of the generation and then they go to the next gen.

Might be debuted with the new camaro racecar they have coming out.

I forgot the link but supposedly gm has some patents and trademarks for a a few engines that havent been officially annouced but tuning companies and race teams already got a peak at.

Fords probably waiting for the z28 to release a gt500 and chevy is probs waiting for a gt500 to announce the z28

it looks even sexier with the racing stripes.

welcome to the senpai, my good sir! i've had my 2016 since may. also a manual, and a 1ss. the visibility takes about a half hour of driving to get used to unless you have no spatial awareness, then it'll take a bit longer. my mom drove mine from the dealership to my parents house after the car's first oil change@1500(break-in oil change) and she had no problem with either the power nor the visibility.(i dropped the car off, and went on vacation).

from one 6th gen to another, here's some advice.

if you plan on driving in the snow, the f1 asymetric runflats are absolutely fucking horrible in anything over the first snowflake to touch down.

DO NOT BEAT ON THE CAR UNTIL AFTER THE BREAK IN PERIOD REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE DEALERSHIP SAYS! there are specific break-in guidelines for the tranny and rear end, too!

let the car warm up at least to the point where the idle levels out.

get a throttle controller. ( i have a vitesse one). that takes the sponge pedal out of the first half of the pedal.(i set mine to sp5).

don't use technology mode on the dash, it just looks gay.

>>16790543
>Ford has to redesign an entirely new car to go 1.1 secs faster
I don't even like chevs but lmao

if you're getting it from the dealership, make sure it has the media package(the 8 inch HMI(read:tablet)) as it is fucking amazing and easily hackable if you are so inclined.

>>16791020
Maybe squeezing more power out of a much smaller displacement engine while staying na? Does nothing for you? 1 second faster per lap adds up quickly in racing.

>>16791042
Mad props for making a flat plane V8 work at that displacement, it was received wisdom from Ferrari that you couldn't make one that big and have it still rev.

Also gotta respect democratizing Carbon Fiber wheels.

But unless you're willing to live with the batshit sensibilities of the R, the GT350 runs in the same performance bracket as the SS1LE, but the Camaro is $30,000 cheaper real price to real price.

That is a fucking beautiful car OP. I've read that a plane taking off is a ~6 second 0-60 and that feels crazy so I can't imagine what a 4ish second 0-60 time feels like. Probably like god himself is thrusting you forward

>Fords probably waiting for the z28 to release a gt500 and chevy is probs waiting for a gt500 to announce the z28

I doubt that's the case, the GT500 has always been about big power while GM has made the z28 more track orientated. They're not really competing for the same market.

GM just announced the camaro ZL1 1LE, which is the car that crashed at the nurbughring and not the z28 like everyone originally thought. I don't think they'll announce a z28 soon. I do expect Ford to announce a GT500 later this year now that the mustang's finally getting the 10 speed auto tranny.

>>16790719
>if brand new your clutch might start feeling 'different' after a certain amount of miles.


No bullshit?

I just bought my first new manual and I was kinda worried that something was wrong.

>will 455 hp be too much
As long as you don't mash the throttle you'll be fine. Other than that, I'd advise you to practise driving manuals on rentals (who am I kidding there are no manual rentals in the US) or a $500 shitbox so you don't toast the camaro's clutch unnecessarily.

>>16793090

>>16792325
thank you. they receive the car today but i take possession friday.

take performance driving classes

>>16794522
My friends tried those and told me they really help. There's also winter driving classes for powerful RWD cars, I think I'll do that since I plan on using the car in winter. Bought my tires already, staying on 20 inch all year round.

I hope it won't be that bad.

>>16794903
That's the thing, muscle/pony cars are so rare compared to SUVs, pick ups, and sedans. I see only a handful of them compared to the mountains of SUVs. Of course I live in an area with a lot of old people but still.

Of course dodge vipers, z28s, and zl1 are even more rare and I never see them. Corvettes I see because of all the old boomers but still no one else drives them.

Ideally I'd like to see these cars as common if not more common than crossovers that people don't really need.

I'm happy for you.

I bought a 2010 Camaro 2SS recently and it was my first manual car as well. I heard the 2016+ Camaros have really easy clutches and are really easy to learn with. You'll do just fine. Only thing is that you will stall a few times depending on how fast you learn and it will be embarrassing. Took me a month to actually drive stick without thinking about it. As for 455HP being too fast: It's not too fast... lol. Just try not to get in trouble because you'll be driving faster than you think until you look at the speedometer and you're probably driving 20 over

32K USD for a 1SS with black bowties. I also changed the wing-type spoiler for a lip-type one. It's actually the 1LE spoiler but it won't be black, it will be body color. I have the same wheels as the first posted pictures.

Black interior. Sound system sounds shitty though, but I plan on upgrading it (if it's possible to control the sound settings via my touch screen I'll do it, if I have to have another radio/control thing elsewhere I won't.. I like my shit stock).

Good shit anon. I think I remember you posting before and you confirmed black bowtie too which is good. I'm waiting for winter to end here so I can bring her back out.

Anyway as others have said practice getting the bite point down in your driveway or parking lot. I just drove mine around town for a week on backroads. If it's your first manual definitely practice hill starts too. The assist tech will only hold you for a second and that's only on certain grades at that. It helps but it's better to feel and get used to insta rollback too. You'll probably stall, I know I did. Just keep calm neutral, clutch, start.

Also take a few minutes to get your seating position and mirrors all setup. Look left and right and see where you get the best visibility and feet position for the pedals. 10 minutes on the highway beyond that and you'll be golden.

Just have fun with it though mainly anon. Good Luck!

>>16790543

North Georgia fag here. Pass by this parking lot all the time, are you in the Gainesville area?

Take someone that knows how to drive manual with you. I was in the same situation a few weeks back when I got my SS and if you've never drove manual, it might take a bit but you'll learn it. First watch some videos on things to do and not to do on YouTube. I'd say once you guys pick it up, ride over to UNG or one of the bigger churches and just practice In the parking lot.

Learn the clutch, don't let out fast, learn the grab point. Start her up, EASE out after you are in first gear and when it grabs, that's when you apply throttle and ease out all the way. Find some hills as well and learn hills once you get used to the basics.

You'll love it man, great choice.

Its okay to hold the clutch in while you wait for the light, at least until you get better at it (dont do it forever). Watch the crosswalk indicators to anticipate when the light is gonna turn green so you can be ready before it changes. Just find a big empty parking lot and get some practice in.

Yeah. How long is okay? Does it use the clutch prematurely? Because it would be darn easy if I just held the clutch at the grab point and held the brake with the other foot.

No, more power and torque makes not stalling easier and more forgiving.

Nice car, although not the color I'd have chosen but not bad either.

just be gentle on the throttle at first and you'll be more than fine.

No dont do that. Whenever the clutch is grabbing its wearing down. I just meant for now (until you learn and get it down better) hold the clutch all the way down while you wait for the light to change so you don't have to do that step when it does turn green. Like I said, practice will make everything faster and easier. It took me just a couple hours of practice before I was driving in traffic fine and no stalls. Just practice mang.
