    Edit: Never mind, I read your intake thread and figured out who is porting the intake.
    It's like pulling teeth trying to get good info like that on Camaro5! Everyone has opinions, but getting useful tech advice is like winning the lottery. Thank you for the details, I do appreciate it. Still debating if 3.91's would satisfy my needs lol.

Otherwise it's a blast to drive.

    I too wanted MyLink and more of the newer features, so in July 2014 I ended up making a deal with my website's sponsor to trade in my 2012 Camaro 1LS and get a 2014 Camaro 1LT (another LFX 3.6L v6 engine with a 6 speed transmission). For those that go on about new cars losing their value once it's driven off the lot... I walked away completely clean from my 2012 Camaro, got exactly what I owed for it. I was extremely happy about that.

    The 2014+ design is very polarizing. I love it. I like the nose having a little more attitude to it, and I love the rear taillights on the 2014+ because the taillights are truer to the Camaro heritage than the 2010-2013 taillights.

    That said - I don't have any input on car seats, I haven't tried putting one in my car yet.
    No input on car seats from me either. Nobody has ever sat in back. I think the refreshed look of the '14's looks way better than the '10-'13 models. Messien has great taste in colors too! I would totally rock a V-6 car as a daily driver if given the choice. Something to think about though, the newest models do not have CD players, only inputs for phones and flashdrives, etc. If I was in the market for a V-6 car, I would shop around and get a stripped '14 LS model. I bet you could find one for around $20-$22k. It would have a lot of the factory warranty remaining. It's easy to option any new car up with "fluff", and suddenly it's $10k more for stuff you don't really need.

    Here's my baby. Crystal Red is the color which is the best imo!

    Nice 1LE! I do like the Crystal Red. My Mom sat in the back of my car on the hour and a half ride home from the dealer. She's like 5'2" and had plenty of leg room...on the passenger side lol. The passenger did have decent leg room as well despite the seat not being all the way back.

    As for a CD player - who listens to CD's anymore? lol. I've been looking into doing the DIY MyLink retrofit in my '10 with the reverse camera. Finding a used MyLink that is priced right is the hardest part. The install doesn't look terrible, though.

    After my T/A is done, I have some plans later this year for the SS and would like to "finish" it off next year with the performance and cosmetic mods for awhile.

    You got that right! Haha. I'd love to look into a whipple or one of those on7 kits, but the car's function right now is a fun DD 8 months a year. But yeah, it'll never stop, ever.
