Driven: The Look-At-Me Chevrolet Camaro RS

In our new Third Look series, the Winding Road staff will take another, more focused view of cars that have already been through our wheelhouse. Though Driven reviews, comparison tests, and our Ask It section in the Forums are all instructive, multiple chances to drive a particular vehicle always yield new, sometimes subtle impressions. In Third Look, we’ll try to highlight these and bring to light some thoughts we might not have had the first time around.

Case in point is the Camaro RS that we had the opportunity to test over the Forth of July holiday weekend. As a staff, we’ve had ample opportunity to test the 2010 Camaro, in both V-6 and V-8 varieties (read what Rex Roy had to say, here). But there was something especially compelling about driving the new American icon during the most patriotic of holidays.
