2017 Chevy Camaro: Beauty and power meld perfectly in this hot convertible


Inside it is all luxury. The model we got to test out came with the RS package, meaning it had all the gorgeous aesthetic you could desire. Starting with the perfectly stitched leather steering wheel with the perfect 10 and 2 notches, down to the ultra comfortable leather seats, you get all the luxury you want from this car.


There’s an available Convenience and Lighting Package that includes rear park assist, side blind zone alert, heated steering wheel and wireless charging, among other things. The number of features is impressive, but it’ll cost an additional $2,800.


In what’s becoming standard with Chevy cars, the Camaro came equipped with a LTE hotspot. It’s available with the OnStar feature that requires a monthly plan. You can connect up to seven devices.


The instrument cluster is all-digital with the ability to toggle between different settings like performance or pertinent information when driving. Right above it is a virtual heads up display that shows the revolutions, gear and speed. This is the perfect compliment to the 8-inch center display; you interact with it through touch. It runs Chevrolet’s MyLink system with built in navigation system and support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.


My biggest gripe with the Camaro was this 8-inch display, or better yet, the placement of it. The display is perfectly suitable with the right amount of information, resolution and functionality, but the odd placement of it make it difficult to see from any normal angle. Most cars manufacturers lay the front display down at an angle, but the one in the Camaro tilts forward. Not sure why Chevrolet’s designers opted the placement, but it’s one change I would want to see in future Camaros.
