I did it before and I sold the car within 3 months. I hope this turns out better.

Yes I did it with my 78 Z28, but that was only $6300, of course that was a lot of money for a 17 year old, but I paid cash. That was my reward for getting a full scholarship, so the college fund was no longer needed.

ARE WE NUTS OR WHAT?????? Yes... with all the engineering thats going into this new camaro.... No..... And I believe your right about "we may be the last people to get a 426HP V8" At least for that kind of money. Time will tell, but I didn't want to take any chances which is why I preordered one.

p.s. I at least got to see and touch one in Buffalo at GM Powertrain's Anniversary party last fall. Didn't get to sit in it though- doors were locked.

I think this makes us an elite class of enthusiast appropriately called "enthusinuts".
Seriously, good question. I've never done such a thing before but I feel that the legacy of the Camaro speaks for itself. I expect little issues here-and-there but the Camaro doesn't have a lock on those. It will take a little time to adjust to having a car with "hood" in my line-of-sight but that's about it. |

Fast forward to Jan 16 at the Montreal Auto Show, I sat in the car uninterrupted for at least 20 minutes ( I bolted straight to it bypassing everything else ), I crawled all around it, I felt her up...... and I can honestly say this car feels GREAT ... It's got KILLER looks..... Fit and finish is amazing.... Paint is great..... Headers will fall right into place.... " ARE WE NUTS OR WHAT "....... My wife thinks so, but I can live with that |

Since I'm buying it for looks and I know how it looks, I'm not nuts :P
And I read all the reviews for it and made sure GM got some government money before I bothered ordering lol. |

Only a "little". They have to go back Feb 17th to Congress and show how they are actually going to be profitable (viable) in order to get the real money...
