2019 Camaro SS
 
I loved my 2016 Camaro SS but it got totalled.

So I bought a 2019 Camaro SS with the 2SS package. This one has everything that my 2016 had plus a few extras even though it was a 2SS package also. ( i have adrenaline red seat and door inserts, sunroof, and newer updated infotainment system that i didnt previosuly have)

2019 Camaro SS gets a cosmetic refresh and a 10-speed automatic for the SS.
cosmetically for 2019 they changed the hood, front bumper cover, headlights, rear bumper cover, and tailights.
added front collision avoidance and a review camera in addition to the backup camera

but the biggest change was throwing out the problematic 8 speed auto for the 10 speed auto !!!
this transmission is so much better. increase fuel mileage buy 3-4 MPG, quicker 0-60 by a tenth and 1/4 mile quicker by a tenth. Also get line lock and launch control.

Sounds like all the mods will be done in a month lol. I like how everyone is getting to the 10 speed transmissions

yep, its moving pretty quick. I wasnt able to get all my carbon fiber pieces out of the interior, but I got the big pieces (small pieces broke when trying to heat and remove them). so I re-ordered all the small carbon fiber stuff to replace what i had. most of it is coming from china so it will be a couple of weeks.

Still waiting on the replacement locking lug key ( the original key got lost in the wreck and transportaion process) hopefully it will be here soon so I can get my wheels off the 16. Once i have the wheels i need to order one replacement rear wheel, then I already have the paint to paint them all black... then install on the 19.

Thanks!!
Yeah i had to swap a while back when they started blocking photobucket here at work.

Oh, got my wheels off the 16 friday finally. One front tire had a gash in the sidewall i didnt notice. So ordered 2 front tires , they will be here today. Messaged my contact at MRR wheels and waiting to hear back from him about a replacement wheel. I have the other 3 wheels all dismounted to bare rims and got them all sanded down yesterday.

Well i have had it a month now. LOL
I finally finished up tinting my windows and gave it a good washing this weekend.

Now just waiting for the powder coat guy to call me and tell me to bring him my wheels that i took off my 2016. Going to PC them in "Ink" Black which is a really glossy deep black.

Then the only thing left is to decide if Im going to wrap it the same color as my 2016 or wrap it in Satin Black.
