Welcome to America, but why did you pick the worst state in the country? California is a liberal wasteland of high taxes, big government regulations, freaks/outcasts, and they HATE "gas guzzlers" there.

Welcome to the US and the Camaro family!

Australia, eh? It's funny because you have no idea what I'd do to get my hands on an HSV Grange.

Way to generalize an entire state.

took me a few days to get used to it ... hardest part was shifting a manual with my right hand ... like learning to wank with the opposite hand!

Well let's not forget that the camaro was designed by the boys at Holden Australia ... and sits on a Holden platform ... AND the 6cyl engine is made in Aus!

Well technically the car was designed here, engineered in Australia, and the 3.6L LLT V6 is built in North America. The Alloytec V6 used specifically in Holdens is built at Port Melbourne.
