#2 pretty much describes everyone in the Wash/Detail section of this website.

Having never read the rules, it's good to know I am following them.

I think it is built into our genes to follow many of those rules simply by nature.

Instead of the "Bro code" its the "Camaro Code" and should be post marked on the front page of the forum.

#5.... 8's are better? How are they exactly better? Worse mpg, higher insurance, more expensive, higher curb weight, less hp per liter, lower tech. And, are you thinking of the LTG when you say "better?

I have a feeling that the new 4-cyl LTG will prove to be very compelling when it comes to the aftermarket someday.

"Always, 'Glance back,' after parking your Camaro."

Not only does this sort of automatically happen, due to the automotive vanity that Camaro owners have, but this also serves the very practical purpose of double- checking to make sure doors/ trunk are closed, no shopping carts are poised for attack, or that firing positions for evil birds have been avoided.

Lmao. Always look back at it and parked safely away from door dinging a-holes.

Yes, told my wife and kids that when they started to drive, no matter what car they had.

I'd have to say, ZL1 rules were created for the single people... I'd quickly get divorced if I followed every rule! lol!

Worse mpg... It shouldn't be a consideration when buying a muscle car. Go buy a f'ing Cruze.
Higher insurance... See above. Mine was $10/6mo higher than a 2006 SE-R spec v. I'm happy.

More expensive... It's unavoidable. It's also more desirable.

Higher curb weight... I'm a little overweight too and I'm ok with it. The difference between the Lt and SS is less than 200 lbs

HP/liter... Until you can magically stretch that thing out, that argument is dumb.

Lower tech... It's ohc vs pushrod. Pushrod engines allow more compact design and less moving parts. The SS doesn't have direct injection or vvt. The v6 doesn't have active fuel management.

Keep cheering for a 4 cyl motor in a 3500-4000 lb car. It's gonna be tired at 100k miles.

I found it funny, but I see what you're saying... eh, if it's that bad, let them delete it. As far as a suspension, that's over-the-top... I've seen WAY worse posted on this forum.
