Guys,
I'm new to the boards and have been thinking about jumping into a camaro. I currently have a bimmer 645 vert, but like the body style of the camaro. Anyone else here made the switch. I'm sure I'd lose a little bit of handling, but I'd make it up in the raw power of the SS. I'm sure the luxury of no nav will get to me at one point, but I'd do something aftermarket to make up for that. I'm big on factory sound, how does the radio in this car sound? Based on the after market kits I've seen I could easily upgrade that.

I love my 645, but I've put a lot of miles on it, and quite frankly I'm tired of stroking that fat check every month.

Bimmer645, Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in them...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's and wive's here don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

Welcome to the site, happy to have you. Go take one for a test drive. I promise that it will make you as happy as lips on a lollipop!

Exactly, go take a test drive. You won't be able to wipe the smile off your face.

Either way, Welcome.

welcome to Camaro5, warning you: if you take a test drive you will then have to get the car, it's that awesome.

hahah.. I think those blue halo lights just sold me. That thing is freaking sweet. I can see this car turning into a money pit for me. I never really did anything to the bimmer except add rims.

Welcome. Yes that's exactly what they are money pits LOL. But damn it's worth it dude.
