The Gen5 rollout was unlike any other rollout in automotive history.
Damn that's a beautiful car, Sangyup Lee was an inspired genius.

There will never be another as good looking as the Gen5.

who can find the very first post 'ever' on Camaro5?

Joined in mid 2008 after a negative experience getting a 1978 Trans Am. Vowed to get a 5th gen and eventually did two years after and have been enjoying it ever since.

Really amazing to think about how red hot these cars were 4-6 years back... now I see them allover the place, some of them in terrible condition with dents, panels in primer, and all kinds of road rash you'd find more welcome on a Corolla.

They're old news, but I still love mine.

MLee already posted it - it was from Tran posting "Test".

In the past I've looked through the old threads they are interesting. You'll see things about Z/28 and what people wanted it to be. Topics of 1/4 times estimates, the LS2 motor, colors, suspension-hard/soft, wait times and excitement being the super star of the streets.

With this old ass car I still get looks everyday. Tonight I heard someone say "Damn" as they were walking by.

If it weren't for this forum, I would not know what a catch can is.

Man, I can remember when you could check all the threads in an hour so.

JLSuperfly · 10-26-2016, 07:39 PM

I wonder who first discovered the pockets on the sides of the back seat. I think it was the Homeless Man who I learned it from maybe a year ago.

Homeless Man has been around so long he now owns a home!
