Then...there's the C6. The Z06 is great, but, you know, the Grand Sport's not that bad. With the C7, I don't think I'd want a Z06 and I know that I don't want a C7 ZR1. With my Camaro SS 1LE, I'm happier having the 2SS than the 1SS because it's a little nicer, but I don't even care that the ZL1 and ZL1 1LE are out there because they're way too much overkill. Honestly, the SS 1LE is too much overkill (meanwhile the V6 1LE was not enough because it didn't get the trick suspension the SS version and above do). So, when I look at the CT-4 and CT-5 Blackwings, I want to be more into the CT-5 version, but I can't help feeling like I'd have way much more fun more often with the CT-4 version. Even at the same price point, I find the CT-4 more appealing even though I don't think it should.

I guess I am just super boring at this point in my life being super satisfied with my car right now and not needing anything else. (Someone revoke my carmudgeons card!)
I am sure that might change with the release of the G87 but I rather enjoy being car satisfied at the moment. I guess I never really ever wanted to spend that kind of coin on a car ever so they become less and less interesting above a certain price point. I like to read about them but don’t long to have one like I used to when I was much younger. Also it comes down to what can you actually use on the street. It’s more fun to make it through at least 4th before you get arrested. That said the Blackwing is cool as hell and if someone gave one to me I would probably keep it. It’s like an E39 M5 on steroids!!

Couple that with the SBC engine, and there’s not a lot there to dislike on the car. Plus you got the 1LE trim which is even better.

The biggest news in that is that is 2024 being its final year. For the past two years or so, there's been a lot of speculation about what year 2023-2026. We all know it's coming, just not when, exactly. Current production issues will probably affect what it otherwise would have been, but who knows if that means the end will come sooner or later. They have thousands upon thousands of nearly complete 2021 cars in lots around Lansing waiting for parts (things with missing chips) to be complete. Meanwhile, 2022s are starting to hit dealer lots, while other 22s are starting to also hit the Lansing area storage lots. The Camaro has never been a hot seller. While those cars are MY2021/22 cars, it will take some time to sell them once they get to dealers. I really wouldn't count on any future Camaro thing one way or another until it actually happens.

If you can find one without ADM...
Apparently the CT5 in general has one of the highest markups over sticker! https://www.caranddriver.com/feature...ggest-markups/ Yeah- i was surprised by some of these as well. |
