Today, I took advantage of the opportunity to drive a new 2010 Camaro SS2. I had to agree that the dealership was not responsible for any traffic tickets that I might receive during the test drive.
They had the speed warning set at 55 mph
From a standing start (with traction control on) you are pushed back hard in your leather bucket and triple digits on the mph meter show up in about 12 seconds.
From a standing start (with traction control off) the rear tires light up instantaneously as you work the steering wheel to maintain control. Great fun for an old gear-head!
On the twisty road, this Camaro is a great handler. My old entry and exit speed records were eclipsed by over 20 mph (without effort) from my 1969 AMX days.
Would this make a good company car? Yes, for very quick service. I would want the 6-speed manual trans, though.
I forgot to mention that this Camaro has a GREEN sticker on it. On a scale of 0-10 it is 4-6 in both emissions and fuel mileage.
