Small Garage Test
We have a small two-car garage that's a good proxy for how easy or difficult it is to maneuver a vehicle at low speeds in a tight spot, and here is our experience with this vehicle.
The first time we tried to park the Camaro in our garage, we had to shift back and forth into reverse gear a couple times, and we got out of the vehicle twice just to make sure we weren't backing into our neighbor's garage opposite ours. It’s a bit difficult to judge where the front of the vehicle is due to the long hood, and the tiny rear window makes backing up a guessing game you hope you never lose. The vehicle has a turning circle of 37.7 feet; for reference a Chevrolet Tahoe has a turning circle of 39.0 feet and a Chevrolet Aveo has a turning circle of 33.0 feet.
The Verdict: We would trade a cupholder, the auxiliary gauges, and 5 horsepower to get rear-sonar or a backup camera.
