Ah, no hate taken. I do like the lines of w/o a sunroof, but frankly I just love having one. Especially in Vegas. I can sacrifice the sexy lines for having the sunroof lol.

My GTO and my SS Sedan had one that were similar in size. I rarely cracked them open, even when the temps were appropriate (unlike when you paid the area a visit, lol). Now the pano roof in some of my other vehicles was a great experience. I kinda miss it on my Titan as it combined with the light brown interior was nice. It really made me understand how the "concret jungle" jeep guys feel driving around even if it's only at the strip mall.

Agreed... I wouldn't own a Camaro without one. I have zero issues with head room and it just brightens up that dark cabin so much. Not to mention the airflow when you use it.

I'm going to keep this one. Best color (Rally Green) and best trim (2SS 1LE). Plus, GM has nothing lust worthy anymore (not a Vette guy).

I'm looking for something else to add but not sure if I want to go with a classic or look for a lightly used Trackhawk

At one point I was planning on ultimately upgrading to a Corvette, but frankly I'm loving the Camaro right now, and with how cheap it is relatively, it'll probably be hard to convince myself to get rid of it in the future. I loved my dark green Silverado, and I think it looks great on the Camaro, too.

Took myself to lunch for a nice greasy burger, then treated the car to a full tank of Shell 93.

Way too close to the curb. I've seen a few front ends that sag after years and years of people hitting the curb. The worse feeling to me is when you pull out and you hear the front end scrape.


Not something I did, but something I had done, had the 3M clear front bra installed. I won't be able to see how well it was done as the dingus that did it took my car to his shop (dropped off to the dealership who then had a 3rd party do the install, which meant some stranger drove my car about 50 miles) and there are a lot of bug splats. I am hoping that these bug splats are on top of the film, but can't clean them up to confirm. I did see a few spots with bubble pockets, which is a little disappointing given that the salesman claimed his guy was "OCD". I don't think my cam caught him clay baring the car prior to him installing the film. I guess it only goes to show that if you want something done right, it's best to do it yourself. I'll post up pics once it's cured and I get a chance to clean things up.

NEVER trust a dealer to "set you up with 'his guy'" to have something done... Before I had my car clay barred, polished, full frontal PPF and Ceramic Coating, I did a LOT of research and found a place with a LOT of great reviews... I dropped off my car, they requested 3 days, confirmed the car would be inside the whole time, I told them "my work schedule is VERY flexible, would it be ok if I dropped in randomly at ANY time to check on the progress?", their answer was "absolutely!"... I did and they were doing exactly as promised... My car was returned to me with the very same miles I gave it to them with (89 miles on the ODO)... 2 years later I'm still very happy with the work, the car still looks like it did at 89 miles even though it is approaching 6,000 miles...

Money very well spent in my opinion...

lmao, my eyes went straight to the bumper at the curb and then I scrolled down and saw it as the first comment after the picture.
