Really quick car. Huge back seat, to boot.
The 4 banger Camaro is 5.4 0-60 which is where I would start to use the term quick. Really quick is more like the SS's 4 sec time. Maybe those are really, really, quick; and really, really, really, quick. Back seat I will give you over any Camaro ever made but again, the adjective huge may be a bit much. Basically the 2016 Civic is as quick as a 98 neon DOHC 5 speed with a similar back seat and mpg numbers which you could buy brand new under $10,000. Such progress we have made.
