First time Camaro and also, Chevy owner

Good day everyone.

A couple of weeks ago I picked up my 2018 SS 1LE and figured I should introduce myself, as I plan to be spending plenty of time on the forum doing research and hopefully also helping others as well.

My name is Jeff and I come from pretty much everything in the automotive world except American made. I had done extensive research on the 2018+ Mustang GT PP2 and was pretty much set on picking one up, but before I spent all that money, I needed to make sure I was cross shopping all appropriate alternatives. I had also entertained the idea of buying a lightly tickled GT350, but once I stumbled upon the SS 1LE all bets were off.

From watching tons of video reviews and also reading plenty of articles on my own, it was a no brainer for me. The SS 1LE for the price is just in a league of it's own. Once I secured the price @ $40K, it was time to pull the trigger.

I immediately fell in love with the low end torque.. Something not had in any of my vehicles. I have owned a few turbo Honda's including my 2001 S2000 and my most recent vehicle was a FBO Stage 2 APR HT Golf R, but still, the lag was killing me regardless of how apparent it was. I was all smiles driving the SS off the lot and don't think I've stopped since that night.

I'm happy to be a part of the Gen 6 family and hope to make some good friendships here through my journey owning one.

Here's a couple photos I took yesterday. Sorry for the sub par iphone pictures.

Cheers!

CONGRATS on the ride, and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5/6. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wives', husbands, girlfriends and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy.
