Number 3 Capture Test Fleet Camaro in California (photos) - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Thank you so much Number 3. You are so awesome for sharing this experience with you. Any detailed description of the driving experience would be awesome. I know that you have told us that the V-6 feels more powerful than you expected it to feel -- and that is GREAT feedback. Anything else along these lines would be great.

BTW -- as if the forum wasn't addictive enough, You and Heather have me checking this site even more now.

I LOVE EVERYTHING about this car except the sunroof. It just looks wrong when its open. It looks so flimsy, tacky and gay for a muscle car.

Hi My Frend, I have a red 2LT ordered and really love the pictures.
I do have one question that so far has not been answered. How are the standard headlights at night????? How do they compare with the HID's? Any need to put SilverStar Ultra's in? Which bulb does the headlights take? Thanks, Geno

Unfortuneately I don't have any of my photo software with me, just my wife's laptop so I had to use crude methods to size them for posting.

Enjoy!!!!

The photo's are great!!!! I am on dial up using msntv2 so, the lower kb pictures are much easier to download.

NAHURRY · 12-26-2008, 02:45 PM

Wow!!! ...They all look sooo good ,... also to me...thats about the rite
size wheel on this car, not too big ......PERFECT! (of course just my opinion)

Thanks #3 for the shots and all the info.

Number3, thanks so much for the pictures and for all the driving experience information from you and Heather. This is almost as good as me having one myself. Ok, well it's not that good, but better than me just dreaming about what it will be like to drive mine!!!

Number 3

Could you pleas take and post a picture of the iinside of the car looking up to the roof/sunroof area with it both opened and closed. I have a 2LT/RS RJT on order and would like to know how this area looks and if there is a inside cover for the sunroof that is used when the sunroof is close. I also have a 05 Magnum R/T that has a sunroof and when it is clossed there is a sliding inside cover to close that blocks the sun. I live in the Imperial Valley and the summers get a bit warm here and if the sun is just shining through the sunroof the car is going to be Very Hot, so if no sliding cover I may endup having the sunroof feature removed. Thanks in advance.

Tango16 · 12-26-2008, 04:02 PM

What "ditch" do you lose in the roof with a sunroof? Could you please get a pix of the roof with SR open and closed? Thanks.

I think he's talking about the "reverse Mohawk" in the roof.

mitchell87 · 12-26-2008, 04:23 PM

#3 you mentioned that you have enough headroom in the car, how tall are you? I am 6"8" and need to know if i fit, i would not order the sunroof even if it does not effect the headroom, but i need to know if im gonna fit. Thanks for all your pictures and your thoughts on the car, they are greatly appreciated.

HeatherR · 12-26-2008, 05:53 PM

Number 3--Don't hesitate to post. I am sure that everyone feels that there is no such thing as too much information

Hope you are enjoying your vacation/road trip as much as we are!

I think I read somewhere with that design Sunroof you either do not lose any or nearly as much as you do with the retracts IN-THE-ROOF designs.
