Went to Lowes this morning to pick up a few things. Parked the 1LE way out in the parking lot close to another Camaro. As I was approaching my car I see a young boy (probably 10-12) walking across the parking lot with what appeared to be his grandmother. There was a median separating us. As I got into the car I see in the mirror they had stopped behind me. I watched the boy as I started the car (in Sport mode of course). He smiled pointing at the car to his grandmother. Then I drove off in 1st gear so I could let off the gas and make the exhaust burble and crackle. I looked back and he had stopped and was watching again.

I wish I had driven over to them so he could check out the car. I didn't think about it until I was down the road. When I was his age that would have made my day. If we want to keep performance cars around we need to teach the younger generation about them and to appreciate them because they will be the buyers of tomorrow.
