I’m on my 3rd 5th Gen now. 5th Gen SS my favorite camaro!! It feels so big and bulky and just hogs up the road. Also I love the gauges and the retro design exterior. It’s a muscle car in its purest form.
I don't own a Camaro yet - I am going to purchase one towards the end of the year - I have a Challenger and a Mustang - but I would definitely get a 5th gen before I get a 6th gen Camaro - I don't know anything about the engine, handling, or size - I just love the body style of the 5th over the 6th Camaro - I will probably be getting questions of why I chose a 5th gen but that is what I am going to get - just not a fan of that body style of the 6th gen 🤷🏾♀️
I have a 2023 Camaro SS. I just purchased a 2015 Camaro R/S with 29000 miles on it this car is like brand new. The 5th Gen Camaro is more like a "Hot - Rod" and the 6th Gen Camaro is more like a sports car. I agree, I like driving the 5th gen more!
We literally have the same car, I couldn't agree more when you said that the 5th gen is a muscle car 💪 I bought my 2010 ss for the same reasons you explained.
2011 Camaro 2SS- 91 mm throttle body, cold air inductions cold air intake, bmr strut mount, no resonators and borla ataks. love every single thing about it. wouldn’t trade it for the world
I miss my 5th gen 2ss. 6speed, was great car. Lost it in a hit and run, guy didn’t have any plates and still ain’t been caught. Looking to replace it this coming year with a 13 zl1
Thanks for making this, I've been thinking about a 6th gen but, I love my 2014 SS 1LE so much and assumed I picked the best car starting out. I agree and don't understand all the slander about them riding rough. I'm 100% stock and my car rides so smooth I find I get sleepy after about an hour on the highway Lol Of course I stay on smooth highway all the time. My only complaint. I have excellent tires, BF Goodrich A-specs "all season"
Virus world I wouldn’t say a lot of money, if the 6th gen is just basic bolt ons then a cammed 5th gen correctly geared should take it. It’s when the lt1 is also cammed when the 5th gen starts to fall behind
@@jasonreyna7615 who cares? speed kills. as long as the car drives good and looks good. steer away from those pos s550 mustangs though. terrible car to look at and to drive. i sold mine after a few months. ended up hating the junk
Hey I See Those Ukrainian Boxing Gloves! 🇺🇦💪🇺🇸💪 I'm Also Ukrainian and I Also Have a 5th Gen Camaro SS. Mine is a Victory Red 1SS Manual. Just Subscribed!
I have two 5th gens.....a 2010 2SS n/a with 470 rwhp and a 2015 ZL1 with 870 rwhp. I can beat most 6th gens and then some all while having a lot of fun in the process. I can daily drive both or take them to the track / Mexico and beat the hell out of them. I love my 5th gens and will never get rid of them. They are awesome muscle cars. Of course, I’m biased but I don’t care.
Does a 5th gen camaro have more rear leg room vs a 6th gen.. the specs says it's the same.. but I dkn.. I have a 4th gen and thinking of getting a 5th or 6th but rear leg room is important to me.
@@bestfromnw 🤔 you know I looked up rear leg room in a 4th gen and it's less then both The 5th & 6th gen. But I swear I have more room in a 4th gen then a 6th gen. 🤔 Maybe I'm just imagining things.

Good vid! Nice quick comparison! I never liked the 5th gen (I know most people DID like the 5th gens so I'm the outlier).. Never even considered one as I thought they were kind of piggy and fat, lol. But everyone has their own tastes and GM def hit the ground running with the 5th gens and Transformers movies and what not... 6th gen they seem to have put out an amazing car and then neglected it and just whacked off the vette some more instead! Lol. Have a good one!
I drove few zl1s, they're great... But if you want a track car, 6th gen is way better handling car. If you want a cruiser with lots of power get a 5th gen zl1 - you'll be happy
But they say you can’t daily a zl1?? If so id rather have that than any type of 6th gen honestly. 5th gen ss my dream car cause a lot of people daily it. Zl1 though im worried about making another bad car purchase would be my second choice.
Depends what your definition of "better" is? 6th gen is a lot smaller and more of a track car. If you daily the car those are two negatives. Once the 6th gen hit dealerships sales went down a lot, and the Challenger took over because it was just that much more practical.
just bought another gen5 camaro..a mint condition inferno orange 2012 l99. i love these cars..AVOID THE S550 MUSTANG it's a total pos compaired to these camaros

I finally found and bought my z28 5th gen, coming from a 3rd gen z28. I love the ls7 z28. My friend has a 6th gen zl1 1le and his car is not lighter than my z28, once you add all those accessories the weight really climes.

LS3 anyday over an LT1
Especially if you don’t wanna go faster stock
@@joewe23 no direct injection, no active cylinder management, no cam phasing. Just a solid reliable engine.
I just purchased my very first car and its also my dream car, a 2014 SS 1LE in Red Hot color, I like 5th gen so much more compared to 6th gen.
I own a 2016 and love it but I really appreciate the points you bring up here.

Just goes to show you, newer is not always better.
"My lady friend doesn't drive a manual." I see you lolol
I love my 5th gen. Much cheaper and you can be just as fast and faster than a 6th gen and still spend less money
Jason Reyna I also like the early 5th gen styling too
gen 5 camaro is an awesome car..rock solid handling and dead easy to maintain and work on.
love mine to bits
@Virus world yeah but i have no interest in speed or how fast a car is..the gen5 camaro looks amazing and drives amazing.. i dont want for any more

I drive a gen6 but i have give my gen6 v6 for a gen5 ss .. i love the Optik from the gen5 more.. like a mustlecar. The gen6 is more sportcar Optik...
So i should keep my 2015 gen 5
Idk what to get 5th gen or 6th gen
My favorite is the 2013 ZL1 ! My favorite muscle car is the 5th gen ZL1 but sports car I would choose the 6th gen

what mods on your 2010?
I'm guessing it's cammed, fult bolt on with some more to have 470 to the wheels.. unless he meant at the crank

It's about the same as far as leg room. 5th gen seems to have more head room

I'd be shocked if you didnt
@@bestfromnw me to would went and got a 10speed camaro 🤭
That’s cool I never seen a right hand drive Camaro keep it
Is selfi cam.. you See the ss logo ...the Logo is 22 and not ss

I've got a 2015 SS. I'm waiting to upgrade. What do you like better? 2015 ZL1 or the Z28?? Or Just skip and go Gen 6 2018/2020? THANKS
I drove few zl1s, they're great... But if you want a track car, 6th gen is way better handling car. If you want a cruiser with lots of power get a 5th gen zl1 - you'll be happy
@@bestfromnw Thanks. So you think just I should upgrade my 5th Gen 2015 SS to another 5th Gen 2015 ZL1 over going with a 6th Gen SS as Such?
If you want more comfort, I'd stick with 5th gen.
Is that right hand drive?
4th Gen FTW!
I love mine
You’re from tri cities ?
I was, moved to Portland 6 month ago
I own a 2011 2ss rs synergy green ls3 6spd car and a 2014 zl1 conv I love them both but my 5 th gen is a funner car to drive
in my opinion the 6th gen looks shit compared to the look of the 5th gen
lucky me i just bought an 5th gen then
is that a right hand drive..?
Nah the camera is just flipped
See the ss logo is 22 its the selfi cam
is this fr a RHD camaro!!???
Negative
Fury C6 it’s just flipped.
@@keyanutate6127 ..i was getting excited, I need RHD lol.
I'm sorry but i'm not selling my 6th gen for a 5th gen.
Get a 5th gen ZL1 and you get better handling and magnetic ride control.
FasNuf Garage 4000 pounds though. Still want one though
@@Tywild327 I have about $42K into mine now. pushing 800HP at the flywheel
But they say you can’t daily a zl1?? If so id rather have that than any type of 6th gen honestly. 5th gen ss my dream car cause a lot of people daily it. Zl1 though im worried about making another bad car purchase would be my second choice.
@@nobreaks3305 I daily my 2015 ZL1 manual transmission
5th gens are cool. But the 6th. Gen is a whole different beast. Hands down better.

5th gen is better sports car than 1-4 gen. I like looks I’d 5th better than 6, just so heavy
