I just drove a 2017 rs v6 this past saturday. I took to a parking lot, drove it around, and even did two first gear pulls in it. This one was not stock, has a tune bumping it from 335 hp, to 360. I wanted this car as my next ride before this saturday. There, s no way i, m not getting it now. Forget the Japanese run of the mill accord, camry, maxima. This car will embarrass them. As for the germans, i, m good. The camaro is the one for me , hands down, and i can, t wait 😁
I rented a v6 camaro yesterday. Fun, fast car, plenty for the street. Ran up on a challenger, easily pulled ahead in the turns, and left him way behind on the straight away. I was impressed with this car, handling is amazing. I pulled a 0-60 in 5.0 seconds flat in cold weather. That's at least as quick as the challenger RT. Sounds good too.
@@theguy4615 i simply can't believe that due too my dads 2016 rt only running a 5.5 in perfect conditions it also had pirelli summer tires on it. I'd like to see proof of this because a 5.0 in a stock car mostly in cold weather where the tires won't grip will not run faster then the suggested manufacturer time. I may have got the wrong number but I simply cannot believe you ran faster then 5.1 seconds 0 to 60.
I just cant choose what i want. Theres an awesome 2LT v6 near me with some nice aftermarket things but its an automatic and really don't think ill enjoy an auto. Idk if i want an NA v6 or if i want the Ecoboost mustang, cant choose
The Ecoboost is going to FEEL faster in most conditions due to the torque down low. If you don't enjoy really winding a car out on a back road and want it to be fast around town, go turbo 4 Camaro or Mustang. Camaro chassis is slightly better in my opinion, MUCH better in 1LE form. Manual vs Auto is all about preference. GM put the 10 speed auto on V6 cars starting in 2020 and the auto is absolutely faster in a straight line. Less fun though. Check out the high performance package ecoboost mustangs too, they get the old Focus RS motor and are quick.
There's a blacked out 2021 V6 I took for a ride yesterday. I was impressed with how it pulled & sound. I may get it. It has more hp than a 5.0 stang had factory.
ik this video is 3 years old but, the v6 comes with no lift shift? i have a 2019 manual v6 with rs package and im scared to try NLS and for it to destrtoy my clutch or something
It's OK as long as you don't need to take anyone else in the car. The back seat is basically unusable. Other than that, gets great mileage and drives super smooth.
Man really enjoyed that. This channel is refreshing because there are so many lame car channels out there where the guy can't even drive his car worth a shit.
I don't know why everyone finds it so hard to believe a v6 camaro can run low 5's. A fucking honad accord v6 can do that. They aren't as slow as people want to think
They are mid 5 sec cars and the auto ia slower. And you cant get much hp in mods out of the V6, the 2019+ models have no headera either and no tunes out there for anything 22+.
So as far as the 0-60 times for the v6 camaro, i believe the times for the manual is 5.3 to 60, where as the automatic is 5.1. I am seriously considering buying one of these v6 camaros, but the prices are going up due to it getting ready to be discontinued. This review, plus the fact that i have been in my brother, s 17 rs v6, it, s the one for me. An american car that feels drives and sounds like something straight from munic. Can, t wait to get one, thanks for the video.
They are discontinuing the mustang too. Not much of a market for pony cars in America anymore. It's about trucks and SUVs. But I have a Camaro. It's amazing!
@@crowdnine878 it could of been nice if Chevy did a turbo for the 3.6 for the camaro before discontinued, just like Cadillac is doing with the atsv and ct4 blackwing
@@CarolinaAutos I have seen some people saying the V6 1LE has it but the way to trigger it is different than with automatic transmissions. For Manual transmissions the Launch Control is available within Competitive Driving Mode, the clutch has to be fully pressed and the transmission is in 1 (First) gear. Then the accelerator pedal is rapidly applied and held to wide open throttle. A smooth, quick release of the clutch, while maintaining the fully pressed accelerator pedal, will manage wheel slip. Could you try it?
Shop around. Shouldn't be too bad - $100 a month maybe for full coverage if your driving record is clean. It'll go down as you get older. I'm 32 now and paid like $45 a month for full coverage on the V6. My new V8 car, however....
Can't wait to test drive this compared to a Nissan 370z. Im either going to get this, a 370z or an 1990's mazda rx7 fd0 and then eventually throw a Veilside Fortune body kit on it. Dark green and black (im dreaming) lol

I purchased a v6 2018 Chevrolet Camaro 1LT at the beginning of April 2021 and I love it!
Very fast and the car is a beauty!

Ya I highly doubt you ran a 5.0 second flat time
I took a pic of it. Several runs in the low 5's
Did it have a timer in the car? Apparently the automatics have one but the manuals don't?
Yes it has a timer in the car. My 5.0 run was done at 30 degrees so the tires spun. I was impressed, going to buy one in the spring with npp.

this exact car is what i was looking for a review for thank uou
Glad I could help!
I’m getting a V6 Camaro RS in two weeks, and I live in Charlotte. Would love to meet up with you one day for a ride
Anytime, just let me know - I'm on IG @Carolin_Autos. Could put you in a video if you're getting an automatic we could compare them
@@CarolinaAutos awesome just followed you on there. And mine is an auto.
How’s the car
Ur gonna regret not getting an ss v8
@@rainninja217 not at all. I enjoy my car. I got it more for the looks. I’m saving for the C8. THATS what I want and need. This is fine for now.
10 more subs to 1,000 - sub if you could!!
0-60 runs are around the 9:00 mark
If you had to say what car felt faster to you would it be your old veloster n or the camaro? (I mean in a straight line)
@@thatreviewguy6109 The N felt faster because of the torque, but the Camaro is definitely faster, especially from 60-130

They're quicker than people think

It’s such a good car for what it is. I just put a 2021 v6 0-60 on my channel.
Will Sub!
@@CarolinaAutos thank you !!!
There’s a performance timer on it. Shows exactly 0-60 in decimals
The best camaro is the last one chevy will make. A shame it,s the end of an era. Love this car, and would consider it as my next one.
How’s this car for a daily driver? I’ve been debating on getting one
It's OK as long as you don't need to take anyone else in the car. The back seat is basically unusable. Other than that, gets great mileage and drives super smooth.
👆 what he said!
I’m getting a 2016 Camaro 1LT in a week and I live in Charlotte as well!
Come out driving with the group! Loo up Blacktop Excursions on FB
You're using the wrong timer. You need to go into the settings for the performance timer (it's hidden).
Well, I bought an SS haha so I can't figure it out now
Man really enjoyed that. This channel is refreshing because there are so many lame car channels out there where the guy can't even drive his car worth a shit.
Thanks so much brother!
I know this is 6 months behind but a good Charlotte auto repair is The Farm Garage near Weddington
I have the same car can I run 93 in the gas tank?
I don't know why everyone finds it so hard to believe a v6 camaro can run low 5's. A fucking honad accord v6 can do that. They aren't as slow as people want to think
And the V6 1LE Camaro is actually more fun than an SS 1LE on a back road
@@CarolinaAutos That is true. The 2.0T or V6 are much lighter and still quick. Around a track, I think they would be quicker than the v8
They are mid 5 sec cars and the auto ia slower. And you cant get much hp in mods out of the V6, the 2019+ models have no headera either and no tunes out there for anything 22+.

@@crowdnine878 it could of been nice if Chevy did a turbo for the 3.6 for the camaro before discontinued, just like Cadillac is doing with the atsv and ct4 blackwing
Mags say the V6 and turbo are slower with the automatic.
Did yours make a clucking sound when you hit a bump?
Only if you realllllly pound something
Does the V6 Camaro have the launch control feature as in the V8?
It does not. It has the no-lift shift but no launch or rev match
@@CarolinaAutos I have seen some people saying the V6 1LE has it but the way to trigger it is different than with automatic transmissions. For Manual transmissions the Launch Control is

Hey bro I’m in Charlotte as well and I’m 17 and I plan on getting a v6 camaro , 6th gen. Do you know around how much my insurance will be?

On i77 correct??
Yessir!
I have a 2017 1lt 1LE and I love it!
They're such good cars! Check out my new SS 1LE!!
Oh BTW I have two cars you could review this year. 06 IS350 modded and Supercharged 16 Camaro SS 6 speed.
I'll hit you up on IG soon
That sounds awesome! Supercharged Camaro would be amazing. Where are you located?
@@CarolinaAutos
Atlanta
I could drive up there on a weekend
just let me know! Sunday mornings here are so quiet
I’m gonna do a video with my 1le Camaro 2022 v6 red hot
Great channel and great content, but you committed on of my biggest covid pet peeves! Wear the mask or take it off! No chin bras! Hahaha
Bought a 2016 RS with 42k miles a couple of months ago and I’m now finding out it has a bad transmission. Great car, other than that.
Dang, that sucks, automatic car?
3400 pounds 335 Hp ZF8 Alpha chassis perfect car
Did you sell your N?
I did. It was time for a change - I want to work up to something RWD with bigger power so this seemed like the perfect transition car
Can't wait to test drive this compared to a Nissan 370z. Im either going to get this, a 370z or an 1990's mazda rx7 fd0 and then eventually throw a Veilside Fortune body kit on it. Dark green and black (im dreaming) lol
Camaro all the way man. I've driven a 370z and it was NUMB
you driving like my 72 years old grandma.
Check out my latest video in my SS lol
Jesus that's bad hail damage...
It was actually acorns falling from a big oak tree that happened to several other cars and we had the community cut that tree down
Should like to calab if u would want
anytime hit me on IG Carolina_Autos
#redline
only way to get any power out of it hahaha
Great video i subbed
Zzzzzzz
