OK - the deal is done. I now own my first Camaro! A 2012 Camaro SS

I purchased this car used from a Chevy dealer in town. It is in incredible shape with just a hair over 12K miles. Car is 100% factory, and it rides like a new car - a really fast new car. Price was about half a new one.

My wife was mildly supportive thinking it was some kind of midlife crisis. The truth is, I just really like to drive. I intend to use the car except in the worst weather, so those miles will go up.

Let me just say - I love everything about this car. It is tight, fast, with a big back end - just how I like'em.

Sounds like a great car you just bought. Low enough miles to be new but not so low it sat too long-perfect! Just curious if you went manual or auto? The reason I ask is the auto wakes up a whole helluva lot with just a tune.

If its a manual your likely good the way it is for a while yet. Congrats! Oh and tell your wife if you didn't get the Camaro SS you would have bought some new hair and got a young girlfriend instead LOL..

Why does it look jacked up? If that's the stock height I wonder if mine is lowered

I noticed that. Maybe low profile tires but I don't have that much space between the wheel well and tire and I'm positive mine isn't lowered
