back from the keys w the camaro and no dings or even a paint chip

no dings or even a paint chip! Very happy had a good trip, but wow, the keys are not a great place to visit like I thought! Very run down, beaches were covered in gunk, wouldn't even let my dog that went with us walk on it! I drove the whole time and the camaro did awesome! Got a lot of thumbs up and waves!! My car impressed me...She handled the corners extremely well and all the passing I did. Never once let me down on power. And let me tell you, a one lane road all the way thru the keys SUCKS! so lots of passing

I took that same trip a couple of months after I bought my Camaro and I'm with you, a bit disappointed in Key West, and that ONE LANE ROAD!! But I loved every minute of it!

Visiting the keys is not what a lot of people expect. There are not a lot of sandy beaches, mostly coral rock that is unpleasant to walk on. There are some great spots, but you gotta know where to find 'em.

Good to hear there was no bad luck with the car.

I have never been to the Keys, but it sounds like you had a better time during the "drive"!!

Keys are great for fishing, diving, snorkeling, or partying. For beaches anywhere along the gulf has some of the best in the US
