Finally a SS owner :) - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hi everyone - up until today I had an early 1LT RS in Victory Red that has been the best ride I've ever owned. I purchased it in May 2009 and ever since, it's been a rock star - like many have experienced here, it gets alot of attention. It had Flowmasters and an Airaid intake - and for a V6 was quite powerful.

I spend more time on Camaro5 than any other site and read religiously. I've learned an enormous amount from all of you. Over time, thoughts of LS3s and Tremec 6060s consumed me. I made a deal with my wife - she get's the huge tattoo she's wanted, I get my V8 with a stick

For 2 months I've been debating on colors. Then I saw SGM in the "metal". I wasn't sure that I wanted any more attention than my VR 1LT. However, this color is like an electric fly trap - like it or hate it, if you are on the like side of the equation it's very consuming. Today was the day and I just had to go for it.

This is a quick cellphone pic. It's a 2SS/RS manual that also has Flowmaster Super 40's installed from the dealer. Holy power Batman!

Nice ride. If they had offered SGM on the verts, I'd have done it.

Congrats on the SS upgrade. I love the color too.
I'm trading my 2LT in for a SS vert whenever it is shipped. Too bad it's not offered in green.
