It's funny, my Camaro is my daily commuter and my drive everywhere vehicle. I only pull out the truck to haul the dirt bikes or the trailer. It will also be called up if the snow gets too deep...

Life is too short to drive boring vehicles!

And if all of California was lower LA/Orange county, this would make sense.

I would but my AWD Terrain and 4x4 Silverado would get lonely. The Terrain has an LFX. That's as close as I'll get to a Camaro in the snow, lol.

Funny, many of us freak if we get a little rock chip. Others however, spend money on faux rust and bullet holes! Lol

Modern faux rat rod? I get it though. Looks like a war torn Bumblebee transformer. Kinda cool and I'm sure it draws attention.

On another note, as a classic car/hotrod guy, I've never considered a modern car a show car unless substantially modified. Far too often I've been to car shows where some dude with a brand new, stock Viper, corvette, Camaro, Challenger, or Mustang shows up and wins a big fat trophy. Meanwhile those of us with hand built, fully custom muscle cars and hot rods got jack squat. My car club had a motto: built not bought...

I bought my camaro for the fun of driving not sitting in a lawn chair at shows but I still keep it clean and covered in the garage unless it is a nice day. Only my truck daily driver sees all weather because, well, it's a truck. Lol

I dont think he paid to have that work done, I think he literally robbed a few banks.

That's why the y clear coat the paint. Drive the car, have fun.

DenverTaco07 · 12-15-2017, 02:36 PM

Buy me some wheels and all season performance tires and i'll drive it when it's cold.

otherwise, i'd rather not drive on rock hard tires.

I had an ‘08 C6 I DD’d from ‘08-‘09... in Michigan.
Yes, people looked at me like I was crazy.
But driving to/from work is my fun, getaway time I spend alone. Also reminds me of how happy I am to be alive.
I would choose to drive my ‘fun’ car more and enjoy it rather than having it sit in my garage.
Yes, I do accumulate a lot of miles but I never keep my car for more than 4-5 years.
To each his own.

I posted these in another thread, but this ZL1 is my favorite winter car EVER! Doing an on-ramp and looked down... 107MPH... oops. I guess I had enough speed to merge in. My SUV is soul-sucking!

SociallyAwk · 12-15-2017, 04:17 PM

As of yesterday, my car was ceramic coated. But ANY other day before that.. I'd be on this thread as king of dirty rides.

Yes, move to California, with our wonderful smog and gun laws. Then you can be like me and see all the fun stuff labeled “not for sale in CA”.

My daughter is LA. Multiple dings and dents so far... and a few weeks ago, worried about forest fires torching her and her car. Was driving around with a mask and Advair. I am OK with the cold.
