Got tired of Camaro's

Just looking back to all the camaro and fbody sites I used to roam.
5th gen never did it for me, neither does the 6th, had a 13 2.0t ATS Performance until a couple years ago..
The best Pontiac GM ever built IMO

Well that seems to be a Cadillac atsv. Much different from a 2.0t ats. And Pontiac was gone before the ats was released.

Had the 13 2.0t performance trim prior to this current V that I have had for the last 2 yrs..
The Pontiac part was a joke due to Alpha originally being planned as a G6

Well, My mother has a '14 ats4 with the 2.0t. Ive driven it a bunch and didn't impress me too much. Limited rear seat headroom as well. The start stop feature is a joke(on later model years) and thank god it can be turned off. Too bad you have to do it every time you start the car. Touch controls arent as responsive as they should be.

Sorry man I was having a rough morning.


I consider the ATS a 4 door coupe with the rear seating area so useless but I don't have to sit back there so not my problem..
I do not even like having to go in the back to clean the inside of the back window so I usually get my girlfriend to do it lol


Only have had 1 loaner coupe with start stop but I never even gave it a chance I just go straight to Performance mode

Nice ride. Like most turbo things, I hear they wake up really well with a tune.

Oh and BTW, I had a 2014 camaro, V6 though, and when the lease was up, I didn't miss it one bit, lol. Before that, I had a 2005 CTS-V but sold it prior to getting married.



I was looking into the ATS-Vs but the rear seats don't really allow for child seats. Kinda made me sad because I was really excited about them when they were announced. But once we get a house, then I'll be shopping for a 09-13 CTS-V sedan or wagon(i wish).
