The Camaro sounds wonderful and feels like a real machine. It rumbles and vibrates. The convertible is a lot of car, enjoyment and appeal, for the money.

The 2012 Chevrolet Camaro offers striking lines, powerful engines, great transmissions, superb handling and ride, good V6 gas mileage, great prices. Interior visibility is limited and the back seats are not for adults. In short, drivers who have wanted a Camaro will not be disappointed.

The 2012 Chevrolet Camaro is as badass as ever, but the car’s principal shortcomings will remain at least until the car’s next full redesign. Shaving off a few hundred pounds and enlarging the windows could turn the Camaro into an outright winner.

The Camaro Convertible retains the performance of the now-class-leading Camaro coupe. Its moves are nearly as crisp through canyon roads, too. And starting around $30,000, it’s not a bad deal.

Staff Review Edmunds.com 7.8 out of 10 2012 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe

For tire-burning power and Hollywood flash, it doesn’t get much better than the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro. That said, there are still a few issues that impact the Camaro’s daily usability.

The 2011 Camaro convertible is the coolest looking affordable sports convertible around, and it’s a blast to drive, but visibility is awful.

Provided that style and speed are top priorities, the Chevy Camaro convertible is a strong contender. Just make sure you try the top out for yourself before you drive one home.

The Camaro Convertible lets bowtie traditionalists strut their topless stuff with little in the way of compromise over the coupe version. Additionally, it will appeal to many others who are outside the fold, but who will still appreciate good automotive design.

It’s a beauty, with a sturdy, well-tailored top and surprisingly good handling for a convertible. If you’re looking for a fun car to wheel out on sunny weekends and warm summer evenings, the new Chevrolet Camaro may be the model for you.

The 2011 Camaro Convertible is a great addition to the line-up, one that we’ll hit the road in anytime. You get a lot of car for what you pay. You’ll also turn a lot of heads and put a few smiles on your own face, as well.

While the Mustang Coupe is the clear victor over the tintop Camaro, but giving the Camaro a soft top was one of the best things Chevrolet has done for this vehicle. When it comes to going fast while getting a dose of vitamin D, we have to hand it to the car from the Bowtie brand.

We found the Camaro convertible to be a thoroughly enjoyable automobile, but not without some of the same faults we found in the coupe version, and perhaps a few more unique to the drop top.
