    The audio in this video was recorded with in-ear binaural microphones. If you wear headphones, your mind won't be blown, but it will go, "woah, that's cool."
    I'm also the producer for the Winding Road UA-cam Channel:

    Here on TheTopher, I'm known for putting a camera on my face and driving cars. Whether it's about any of my personal cars or reviews on weekly press vehicles, the goal is to give you an idea of what a certain car is like to drive or live with. Most of my videos are filmed in POV, with my clothes on, and (for like the 5th time) with in-ear binaural audio. Which, if I haven't made it clear yet, is why you should wear headphones. Because of the whole "woah" factor. It's there, trust me. Try it, it's pretty nuts. Or don't. As long as you whitelist me on your adblocker I'm okay with whatever you do or don't do with regards to headphone usage. That is all. Oh and I guess you should also probably subscribe. Why are you still reading this, you should be watching the video. With headphones! Hah, had to sneak that in there one more time. Later!

    I loved my Camaro but traded it for a 392 Scatpack Charger. I just could never see out of it which made it a hassle to drive, which was a chore. I had to replace the two front wheels after curbing them so many times. If they ever redesign this with better visibility I would definitely buy one.

      Should’ve used side view mirrors to see. I’ve been able to by no problem. Many sport cars suck at visibility because purposely shaping the aerodynamics compromises visibility. Ask a professional race car driver lol

    • @windanthonystream
      @windanthonystream 6 років тому +7

      Rob Sampson to me it feels just as fast but doesn’t handle as well, because the Charger is so damn heavy. The ZF eight speed is wonderful, but I do miss driving a manual transmission.At least I can see out of it and plenty of room even though I don’t have any kids.

    • @windanthonystream
      @windanthonystream 6 років тому +4

      @@MrSupersaiyangoku I understand but the windows in the camaro is so small. It's so hard to place where the wheels are regardless if you look at the mirrors or not. My wife has a mustang and it's like night and day when it comes to visibility between the Mustang and the Camaro I had the last generation and the current generation and visibility still sucks. Only if the windows were larger. Eventually you get use to it but it's still a chore to drive comfortably. Between the blind spots, high hood lines and narrow angles to see the road and the corners and its cave like interior.

    • @SR5127CL
      @SR5127CL 6 років тому +4

      717 flyer I definitely agree about the visibility! When I test drove the Camaro I felt like I was in a bunker and even with blind spot monitoring I felt I was sometimes still "guessing" when I would move over on the highway. I also drove the 392 Challenger and Charger 392 back to back months ago and they seemed like better daily drivers. I recently test drove a G80 5.0 and was also impressed, all it needed was exhaust. I don't even know what I want haha.

    One of these with an auto tranny is selling at a dealer near me for about $41,000. The dealer discounted it down from about $44,000 because it's a 2018 and they want to move it. That orange interior looks good. However, I learned my lesson about having a vehicle with a light-colored interior. Good luck keeping it clean.

      Because Ford now puts plastic oil pans and transmission pans on their Mustang GT, I too would look at the Camaro instead. I currently have a Mustang V-6 so I'm no hatter on Ford. I understand the Ford Raptor pickup had a plastic oil pan for a time. But due to leaks, Ford went back to using metal pans on it.

      H Smith why try and compare a light japanese sports car against a heavy american muscle car that is only really good at straight line things, and in a car like this 450 hp doesnt really do the job
      meanwhile the 86 platform has 205ish hp and does the job with what the car is made for
      camaros are shitty cars to daily drive mainly because of the visibility and the really long front end doesnt help with daily driving either
      and the 86 platform has great visibility and you can daily drive that thing with ease because it is made to be a drivers car not a car for someone to drive and be loud and somewhat fast
