It is a 35th anniversary. All 2002's were 35th anniversary Camaro's, just not an LE.

Nothing, my Camaro is the 5th car in my garage so I really didn't need it.

MazdaSpeed 3 for me, I had a 2011 Mazda 3s that was very fun to drive around corners.

(No V8's!) What would you choose if the 5th Gen Camaro didn't exist?

Not true at all. There were 3,250 35th anniversaries. (With another 250 for the cannucks)

370z really surprised me when I drove it. I'd probably have gone with one of those, or tried to find a pristine E46 M3.

As an Alfa owner for 30 years, Im not concerned about any issues. All of mine have been rock solid cars. You do need to know the ins and outs of taking care of them. Neglect the needs and you will have issues.

Can't be any worse than my kids BMW. Some of the designs and servicing on that thing make me question if they know how to properly design anymore. Total crap and a huge pain in the ass to work on.

In 2004 when the ONLY car GM sold with a manual trans was a Corvette I bought a Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V. 2.5L/175HP.

Front wheel drive with a 4.13 limited slip and 6 speeds. A bargain at $20K US. Knock your brain out of your ear with the summer tires.

If the 5th gen Camaro hadn't made it to production I would still be making Mercedes owners cry with that slab.

I'd definitely be back in the saddle of a Pontiac G8 again. I miss my G8 GT, but I'd probably be after a GXP.
