Happy Birthday!!

Today marks one year since I took delivery of my beautiful blue boy. And I still smile just as big now as I did then. Funny enough, I just broke 10,000 miles a few days ago too. I love this car!! Thank you everyone for good times, and thank you GM, Chevrolet, and all the members of the Camaro team for making such a wonderful car. It's been a great year. My heart still jumps every time I hit the throttle, and a big toothy grin just forms itself when I carve through turns. It feels like being home... Here's to many more spectacular years enjoying all things Camaro.

Well Geez Becky, You can only drive one of those sexy beasts at a time. that's one way to keep the mileage down. Unless you find a way to clone yourself, then you can drive them both at the same time...hmmmmmm

Holy cow... I take it you only drive it on occasion then? I can't imagine closing out a year and NOT having at LEAST 8,000 miles on it. How can you not be driving that thing like mad?!

To the OP... 10,000 sounds about right. I'm probably going to have slightly more than that come the one year mark. I figure I'm averaging about 900 miles a month (my one month anniversary was today!!!!). The winter months I probably wont drive it as much, so I'll probably hit 10,000 by close of business July 9th of 2011.

Problem with me is, most of this mileage is for work. I rarely have the time to go drive it for fun. I'm hoping to fix that with some work changes in the future. I'd especially like for him (the car) to start making some friends.

Congrats on the one year mark. I'm still perma-grinning after a month and should the next one after that and so on for a year and beyond. What a great car.

Thanks everyone! And yes, I did endure the plant shutdown, and two weeks of QC. But it was all worth it. And Becky, you need to get out more... :P

The nice thing for my mileage is I'm a deputy with my local sheriff's office, so I get a take-home cruiser. The Camaro is for pure fun (and shopping and what not too)!! As long as I can average about 12k a year I'll be happy.
