Old school catalog. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hello, I just bought my first Camaro (2013 2SS RS, manual) , and first sports car. In the past I have had a wrangler and crotch rockets. Both of which had tons of aftermarket catalogs. I would spend hours and hours pouring over the actual paper catalogs for these. I looked online for them for the camaro, but they seem to be very difficult to find. Can anyone tell me if anyone sends out catalogs as opposed to the digital online ones? I like both, but one you can put in your hands is nice. Also any recommendations as to what is the best online sites would be great.

Thanks for your help!

I do most of my shopping on line. Not really "loyal" to any one specific site. I just search and shop till I find something I like.
Once you start buying stuff you'll get lots of catalogs coming in your mail. At least thats the way its been for me.

There is one site that I get a lot of tech info though. Its called LS1tech. Thats a good one to book mark.

I get parts catalogs from JEGS.com and from CLASSIC INDUSTRIES.

As for Online, go to CARiD.com or Phastekperformance.com for a great variety of parts for our 5th gens.

These are the only two I've seen.

I bet you still clip coupons from the Sunday paper too, huh? lol I remember back in the days before everything was online, I use to spend hours searching through catalogs from Summit, Jegs, JC Whitney, etc. I agree, it did seem to be a lot more fun doing it that way... although back then I rarely ever bought anything since I had no money so I didn't have to worry about paying the credit card bills either.

Catalogs. good 'ol bathroom reads! You can just pick up a used iPad and put a protective case on it.. you know, so it is easier to clean! LOL

I personally like the Summit cats I get every quarter...

We send out Catalogs, but we only print them once a year, so they are not always current. That is the advantage of Online catalogs, much easier to update!

Thanks everyone! I will definitely check all these out.

The only regular mailings I receive anymore are from TireRack and Griot's.
And Playboy. Can't give up that print edition.

Even the newspaper is online now as well as a few other monthly magazines I subscribe to. They are easier to read with my old eyes.

Summit seems to send me a new catalog every week.
