As I eagerly wait to see the evolution of the car industry for the next 50 years, I will do so with a smile on my face knowing I have an iconic, Chevrolet Camaro Super Sport sitting in my garage ready for another cruise.

Thanks for listening.
Yes, they do (especially if one is living right!).

I have to agree also. My three brothers and I all had muscle cars in the late 60s and early70s. Ford,Chevy and Mopars. It was a great time and a ton of fun. But, these new Camaros are light years ahead of those and would not trade mine for a fully restored version of any of those.

Congratulations! And very very well put.

I was born around the time that the "Golden Age" of Muscle Cars was coming to a close in the early 70s. A fair amount of my high school years were spent feeling like I had been born too late to enjoy the big horsepower age, and though my first car was a 1970 El Camino, I don't miss the quirks and idiosyncrasies of owning an old muscle car. Doors/glass that didn't seal, rattles and vibrations, hand cranking windows, cold starts with a carburetor, oil/water/fuel leaks, constant replacement of anything made of anything that deteriorates.

But I'll be damned if computers, computer-aided machining, and a lot of other advanced manufacturing practices didn't bring us all another age of bigger horsepower. You can buy 10-second production cars with full warranties, and that's amazing.

It sounds like you bought a Camaro that's nearly a twin of my own, and I daily drive mine and love every minute of it. I've put an obscene number of miles on my car in the 9 months that I have owned it (putting new tires on it Friday) but I have absolutely no regrets.

I could have had this Camaro, or a Corvette... and I bought a Camaro.

Car looks sharp in black. My last car was black, so I thought I would take a vacation from black this time.
