It’s a Camaro so I feel like you have to have one of these.

I think that's the best part. Even though the full-banger Camaro has a pretty darn reasonable price, you got into the chassis for less than half of what you'd need for a V8. And, for your future plans, this may actually be a better competitive strategy anyway.
Still. I don't think I'd play any Warrant or Night Ranger while driving around in your version. |

Forward to the sides is worse than most cars, but not meaningfully worse than other newish cars with massive airbagged A pillars. Rear is basically fine. Rear to passenger side is not great, but it's not terrible. Rear to driver's side is non-existent. The driver's side mirror is curved and has great coverage, especially when adjusted properly, but not being able to see over the shoulder is not an enjoyable adjustment. MSRP on my car was $27,700. $26,900 for base car and $800 for Technology package. MSRP is same for 2018, but Technology is $900. The blue color most of them are, yellow, and dark red are $295 options. For some reason my dealer kept insisting the MSRP on my car as $28,100 despite the sticker saying $27,700 and couldn't explain why it was $400 higher than it was supposed to be. It's one of the things that gave me a not good feeling, but I'm pretty sure the final pricing would have been the same, so, meh.

They gave me decent money for the Focus, too. Beat Carmax by a few hundred when including sales tax benefit from trading to selling dealer.
