FINALLY

After 5 years of dreaming about this car, 2 years of working my tail off in the military, and 4 months of a bunch of no a bunch of no's from dealerships and "sorry, it sold yesterday", I can FINALLY say. At 22 years old, on May 14th, 2020, I finally brought my dream car. After asking you guys for much advice throughout the years and taking a lot of it into consideration, I made on the best purchases of my life so far! Feels great to check off something on my dream sheet. The best part is my insurance is actually $80 cheaper than it was with my maxima. Silver 2ss with black stripes and medium ash gray seats. As some of you remember, I was extremely skeptical about the seat color, but I could let this car pass me by especially with 20k miles on it. After seeing it in person, I immediately fell in love with the seats and the car itself. Feels great to FINALLY be apart of the Camaro community. I hope to see some of you in the SC/NC/GA area! Any cleaning products you guys have for recommendation and aftermarket items you've added and would suggest, feel free to send ideas my way. I definitely want to get to some MRR mo17 rims. Pics are coming soon!

Congrats on the new car. I'm partial to silver and gray.


Lots of options depending on how far you want to go. I started with the GM cold air intake. If you have NPP, see how you like it with fuse F51 out, where the valves stay open all the time. Lots of people on here can advise you on headers or exhaust systems. Also lots of engine mods available.

Thank you! Man it’s such a blessing to be in a position I’m in to be able to do things like this for myself. My proudest purchase. Can’t wait to see what the future has in store for some details I wanna add to the car.

Same! My first car was silver and my second one was gun metallic gray. And now this one is silver as well. Such a beautiful car. I fanboy over it all the time. Chevy did one hell of a job with it.

Congrats buddy. You will be asked the same question that I'm being asked sometimes: is that your father's car?

Welcome to the club! Enjoy the car!

Welcome aboard!


Where in SC are you?


As for mods and products, take your time. Read, read, and read some more. I could recommend an exhaust, but maybe you LOVE your exhaust, right? Figure out what you want, then start to ask about what the best products and options are. You've got time!
