This is the first time I've tried to post pics in these forums so here goes. If these work out I'll post more this weekend after its first washing. Took these with my BlackBerry today. Dealer will come pick me up tomorrow, haul me to the dealership and we'll do the deal. We'll see how well sleep comes tonight. Much fun!

Picked up my Camaro Tuesday after work. I really do hate hearing how some of you are having problems getting your cars. BUT, hang in there guys this car is worth the wait. I took the Camaro to work Wednesday and I can not begin to tell you how may NICE CAR comments and thumbs up I got in just one day. I am going to try to post a pic and I hope this one works. If it does work I will post more. If it does not someone please tell me how you do it.

Very nice. The link takes you right to the pic. Post more!

SIN R G · 09-09-2010, 08:36 PM

O.k. What am I doing wrong? How come everyone elses pics show in their post, but you have to click on a link to see mine?

Here are some more. I wanted to get some by the lake but it rained after I picked it up and could not get them taken. I hope to get some better ones this weekend. It is very true, that the camera just can't show how the Synergy Green really sparkles.

I told my wife yesterday that not even sandpaper could wipe the smile off my face after driving this car.........

Why don't you call your bank and have them get the check ready for you?

i think your missing the point... the bank is a good 35 minutes from the airport....and the dealer is another 35 from the branch. i can have the check ready for when i get off the plane, but i will still have to drive from the airport to the dealer which will take at least 45mins to do. so i will be down to really 2.5 hours of actual dealership time to do everything this will just take a lot of good communication on my part to make sure everything is ready!!

I think you are pasting the link into the Quote itself.
What I have done is:

Right click on your picture in Photo Bucket
at the bottom click on Properties.
Copy the address from the pop up.
Then go back to your quote on camaro5 thread,
Then click on the insert image icon.
A window will pop up and you past you link info there.
Click OK and that should show your picture in this tread.

I'm sure there are other ways of doing it but this has worked for me.
Good luck.

Very Nice!!! The Silver ICE was one of the 2 color I was deciding from. I ended up going with the Red Jewel tint coat. But I really like the Silver too!!

O crap! Thats going to be tight!

She's home! I took these pictures just after washing it for the first time. I swapped the tires out too. The new shoes are Continental Extreme Contact DWS. I hope they perform well in the winter!

Silver really shows off all the body angles, curves and subtleties.

Whoa! That was a lot of pics.
