This car is great. My 2002 Chevrolet Camaro SS with a 6-speed manual transmission has got to be the best value around. The car comes stock with 325 hp auto parts and 350 ft-lbs of torque. What more could I ask. It is a great sports car and it is the poor mans Corvette because my dad has owned a 1978 L-82, a 1999 Coupe, a 1991 ZR-1, and a 2001 coupe. All have had manual transmissions and the Camaro almost runs with all of them, but the ZR-1 just because that WAS the quickest Corvette ever until the 2002 ZO6 came out.
