One Year Ago Today
One year ago today I put down a deposit and ordered my 2010 SS. I had never driven one or even seen it in person. This time last year none had been delivered locally yet. They were still pretty few and far between. I had always been an f-body person and was definitely ready for the long overdue 5th gen Camaro. I didn’t know a tremendous amount about it outside of the sales brochure but my local dealer had one allocation left and I grabbed it. Build a loaded 2SS/RS and began a 9 ½ week wait. Paid a little over MSRP to get it but it didn’t really matter. Was one of the first in the area to take delivery (7th one to arrive, 1st SIM) and have enjoyed every minute of it.
It's amazing how fast the Camaro5 community has grown in a relatively short time. I'd never have imagined that around 100k 2010 Camaro's would have been produced. Hope everyone else is enjoying their rides.

I have almost 12,000 miles on it now and have loved every mile. Got home from work last night, washed it and threw a coat of wax on it. About 10:00 last night I snuck out to the garage just to take at peek at it. Yes after almost a year and 12k miles, I still just stare at it sometimes

My 'baby' was 'born' on May 1st last year, which is the same day my 1st 'baby', my actual son, was born too...
That was an extreme coincidence, since I ordered my car on 1/2/09, and had NO IDEA when I would get my Camaro...

In six more days I will have had my Camaro for a year. Took delivery on 5/11/09. I still love this car. It has 4960 miles on it now. I still sometimes miss the anticipation of this car coming in. I really miss having one of the firsts on the streets around here. It was like be a rockstar!
