Default New Camaro

Got to drive one at the GM test drive that was set up during the Barrett Jackson Auction last week. The version they had to drive was the RS which is a 6 cylinder 304 HP. I liked the way it handled and it was comfortable, but I would definitely like to drive the 426 HP V8.

Sweet car. I had a 80 Z-28 many moons ago. Anita doesn't get why I go on so about muscle cars. She says it must be a guy thingy.

Camaros have been on the streets of Detroit for a couple of months now. Nice looking car, except the rear end. I saw a ZR1 last summer pulling out of the mall parking lot. Must have been a GM Exec. Had a manufactures plate on it. It sounded pretty mean!

My co-worker runs the Camaro Z-28 website, and he and his partner on the website were given a pair of the new ones to drive around for a day. I got to see one and it looks great, especially up close. They put some video on their website, but the big media car mags objected because they had been scooped, so they had to take the videos down.

He's had one ordered since they were announced, black with the big V8. I'm really looking forward to seeing it soon!

That doesn't look like a Transformer for me...isn't it supposed to be yellow? Looks great! I can't wait to see them on the road.

I'm not a big fan of the new Camaro, looks too boxy. Loving the '10 Stangs

I saw an SS on the road the other day on 75 near 14 Mile. All black. The guy wouldn't get on it though.

I think I might drive the Mustang to work tomorrow. It's finally nice enough outside.

Looks sexy, I'm glad the muscle cars are almost all back. I like the camaro and challenger the best. The mustang is nice, but a dime a dozen.

I had an '85 Z28 before.
