Heh.. my long-suffering girlfriend just glazes over, nods and smiles now. Even if I try to show her the new spy shots she does the same. Not. Interested. :p

Well I dont think my girlfriend minds too much, yet. Her dad has a 78 Z/28 and a 67 SS, so she is kind of used to it. The only ones im really trying to convince are my dad (ford guy) and one of my friends (the says jeeps are better than the Camaro, BS) so on my end i think im good, for now.

My girlfriend is sick of hearing about it and if I talk to her on the phone and asks what i'm doing, I say umm umm watching tv? and shes like oh boy that camaro site again. Then I just laugh because shes right. When I went home for spring break I'd go to my comp for a minute and say I'm checking my email and my fam would know I was looking at Camaro pRon on this site and they're just like whatever. Back at school I tell my friend that I cant hangout because I gotta study on the comp, then in 5 minutes im back on Camaro5 and then he'll walk by and say "Oh so ur studying for the Camaro test now?" and I say yes, I'm going to get an A

My wife always has something to say about me being on this site...lol so I tell her "OK Ill only go on my site once a day if you will visit myspace once a day for 5 minutes." Yeah she folded like a deck of cards. She isnt that bad though. She fell in love with bumblebee in transformers, but didnt care for the preproduction 5th. She says that it dosent look the same. Yesterday I showed her a pic of the black one, and she's like "when you buy that car Its gonna be in black!"...women

That's too funny reading this thread. I'm not dating anyone currently but I wonder what the ex would have thought since she had a 89 'Camaro RS when I had first met her. So since no girlfriend, the Camaro chatter funnels to the family, friends and co-workers!

For now the family had been spared cuz they all live out of state but my friends and co-workers get bombarded with Camaro news!
I'm lucky most of my friends are into cars so they apperciate my madness for the Camaro. My co-workers know, if it's car talk, I'm gonna be all about the new Camaro. If everything goes well, I suspect to have the Camaro before the next girlfriend and then she can be #1 in my book but I'll have to say that when my Camaro isn't near... I don't want my Camaro jealous.

you know that is how my wife is.... she is interested for a while then.... gives me the ok i'm done talking about that car look. o'well.... she will be different when it's sitting in the driveway. i think a lot of it has to do with the fact we have never had a car with a bigger engine than 4 banger. so she is like power??? what the hell is power???? when i tell her 400 (plus) hp, she gives me the what does that mean look. she is getting better tho. she last longer before she gives me the look.

My wife gets annoyed because I can now relate anything that we happen to talk about to the Camaro! I also keep refering to "our" Camaro, talking about it like we're getting it today. Its great, I wonder if this is what its like to be on drugs?

You're very generous to use the word "our." My Camaro is my Camaro. No one else gets permission to drive or any form of ownership ever.

My girlfriend tells me I'm obsessed, but she also understands. She's a Mustang girl, but she has nothing but respect for the Camaro. Talk about lucky. She still thinks I spend to much time on this site, though.


"Tony, are you looking at Camaro stuff online again?"
"Ummm...no?"
"Yes you are! You're totally obsessed!"
"I'm, um, watching porn!"
"Oh, okay. At least it's different."

Actually, she doesn't have a car yet. I think she'll get it this summer or next year when she graduates. She really wants a Mustang, but I think her dad is opposed to it because he wrecked a few in his youth (one was a GT390 I think).
