WoW

I absolutely LOVE Camaros!! That thing is a Beast!...Looks Awesome! My plan is to buy one as soon as I can afford it.

I do love my 2SS but I just can't stop looking at the ZL-1! I wish you many years and miles of nothing but fun & excitement! Happy motoring!

I just got mine today in Cleveland. It's number 220 and it's just amazing!

It's the best sports car I ever drove so far, and the list includes Porsche 911, Porsche Cayman R; Mercedes C63 AMG coupe, M3 coupe, CTS-V coupe.

The steering is light and fluent, the manual transmission is butter and very short, the suspension is firm but not rough, the brakes are strong, the engine and torque are overwhelming (so I moved the setting from 2 to wet) the sound is astounding and the looks is better than in the pictures. I only drove it 40 miles today and sorry, it didn't get a wash yet. I already forgot the 5 months wait time and I have a big smile on my face and in my heart. It's an amazing car and it was worth the wait. Thanks GM for building the best (affordable) sports car yet!!!

Enjoy the pictures. I'm going back to lay my bed in the garage (after my dear wife falls asleep)

Beautiful!!! Enjoy
