My 2012 1LS - "Ariana"
 
EDIT: First post updated 8/21/12

Ariana is going to be traded in for a new SS soon! details on post in page 3.

Original Post:

As seen on this thread (http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=190638), I recently bought a 2012 1LS in SIM.
I finally got my dealer window tint and splash guards installed.
My plans are to have bolt-ons put on by summer time. Want to have a RX catch can (painted in SIM), CAI intake, Auxiliary Gauge pack, and PDIM installed. After that, I plan on getting rims to replace the heritage wheels.
However, I'm getting married in February, so the chances of all that happening in 2012 are slim. But it's good to dream big, right? :D

Also bought my Mobil 1 Synthetic to change the oil this weekend for the first time and also changing my rear axle oil at the same time. Good weekend ahead for Ariana!

Welcome to the thread! Sure do have a nice camaro. Really like the color....:chevy:

malave7567 01-23-2012 10:30 AM

Thanks.
Hopefully soon I can order my CAI and get that in. My wedding is on Feb. 18 though, so it may be longer than I want :laugh:
I'm starting to drive it a bit harder now after putting full synth in the engine and rear diff, and I'm loving my car even more.

Got my exhaust installed today.
Flowmaster Super44s, 2.5 inch piping, Magnaflow as the resonator.
Sounds very civil at low speed, nice and deep at low RPMs.
