Lightening the mood again I see.

V6 vs V8, Auto vs manual, anytime someone asks the question all logic and civility dissapears and stupidity reins supreme..

...and the V6 and auto guys fall for it every single time. You’d think by now they’d just simply ignore it. It’s truly baffling.

Falling for it ? No......getting some jabs in ? Ya for sure.....people are passionate so it takes very little to get thinks going the wrong way. But i enjoy the wise comments and really dont take anything here that serious. Most of these guys commenting on performance may have never even had their car to a track to see what it does anyway . Real world and internet results vary.

I am sure everyone has their reasons for buying what they did. What Irks me is when someone tries to tell me (or anyone else)that they know I really wanted.

So buy what you want, drive and enjoy what you buy, if you decide later you want something else then buy it.
Drive safely and remember life is short and you never know what is around the next turn.

It was all pretty innocent discussion about nothing until the butthurt kicked in from out of nowhere. I still don’t know what the hell anyone said to set Angry Bird off. We were talking about the video and the thread and people at work and BAM, out of nowhere he goes on the defensive. Gotta live up to the name I suppose.

LOL my comment had nothing to do with some stupid video, it was more to answer comments like this:

My post was actually in support of whatever you want to buy is fine because everyone has their reasons for buying what they do. Or could you not comprehend that?

After all the comments and bickering......my l99 has only lost to 2 Hellcats....a built Nova and most recently a full bolton 5.0.....but him and I are not finished yet. So getting my doors blown off is something that hasnt happened. If someone thinks my car is slow and starts talking bullshit....which I find is alot I always say the same thing. I tell them when im going to the track and they should come. In the last 4 years and countless invites Ive had nobody take me up on my offer. So when you say someones car is slow....please be faster then the car you speak of. If you are thats fine....if your not well........

I am not against anyone owning what they like or what fits their needs.

I try to take care in what I say to say what I believe while making sure that people know that if they think differently it is ok. Maybe some things don’t come out the way it is intended, some people interpret things differently.
So that being said, if I have said anything that anyone can take as a personal attack or insult, I apologize.
We are all passionate owners of Camaros, and our cars are like family members to many. So if someone makes a negative comment about a family member it is only natural to get upset.

Maybe it is time for me to leave for good after 10 years and over 21,000 posts, I hope I have at some point helped others with their cars, but now I am getting too old for this.

Unless you posted something later that recanted that statement then it does not matter the date, it was still relevant to my comment. And my post he commented on was 7 months old, so what was your point again?
