I drove my baby up there not long ago, and I can tell you this; I you dread taking your car to the mall, and freak out if someone dares park their POS within. 50 yards of your "Precious". If you would rather spend +3 hours washing and detailing your car and cringe at the thought of running it through an automatic car wash, then you might want to rethink driving or owning a Camaro in New York City. Its not for the faint of heart. After almost 20 hours of driving I was overwhelmed when I finally arrived.
Between people driving like rabid animals, Not having the slightes idea of WTF im going relying entirely on Gps. A zillion road signs. Potholes,,, Potholes everywhere! Paralel parking, just think about your cars with their pointy noses, wide hips and angled tail, just the thing for bumper to bumper parking..Im sure everyone here wants to hang one of those heavy, ugly bumper guards on....Not to mention the constant stereotypical fear of getting car jacked, or getting your radio boosted...(Its actually pretty safe)
On the other hand, a freshly washed and waxed black camaro looks absolutely Bad Ass on the city streets..
Thumbs up to you guys in NYC..

Here, and like GR8ride said driving in The city takes lots of nerve and a little luck. Although there are painted lanes, nobody stays in them. It's like a fre-for-all. Born and raised in Queens I am a master at parallel parking, I can get any car in a space if I have 6 inches of extra space. Living on Long Island we do have to parallel park but since I work in all 5 boroughs I still get lots of practice.

Suffolk County, but I drive my roofing truck in Queens and Brooklyn. If you can drive a truck in Brooklyn, you can pretty much drive anywhere
