Finally - New 2SS RS Convertible

Picked this up as a new 2012 that had been sitting on dealer lots for a while. I have been waiting until the used 5th gens dropped into what I could afford, then I found this beauty untitled at a dealer with 220 miles on it for the price of a used one. It is hiding in the garage now, but will be my full time driver starting at the end of February when my truck lease has to go back. The way winter is going I am going to need some snow tires though!

Thinking of some mods. I wouldn't mind getting a Z28 front end for it - I like the tight grille look. Definitely needs a black stripe or hood too to set off all the silver. Probably going to get the body color mudflaps everyone hates too. (Sorry!).

wow, 220 miles on a 2012. that is amazing. great car. yes black stripes would look nice. i also have the GM flares (my car is black) and i think in long run will help keep rock chips away, it already help with light dirt on the road now. but, you sure got you a nice car it being a 2 SS too. i love my 2 LT, which dealer had for a year on the lot, with 65 miles, mine is non Rs.

We won't be going to CamaroFest this year with it being way down in Houston this time.
Instead we're heading to another big annual car show is St. Ignace. It's also a three-day event.
