It'll be my first Camaro. My whole family's first Camaro, in fact. My dad did build 3rd gens. at Norwood though.

It will be my first camaro as well. My dad had a 69 in orange, however my driving record does not need a car that bright so I went with black on black.

My first Camaro but not my first V8. Cant drive without 8 cylinders its just too un-American. I always wanted to buy a 69 Camaro and rebuild it with my dad but sorry Pop have to get in a 2010 Camaro SS cant see myself without one.

first time here for a real camaro. I had a 72 once. For about 6 months. It was a streight 6 and had more holes than sheet metal. engine was shot but my gole was to restore it to what I thought a camaro should is but was discuraged by family and freinds. But now I am going to get me a brand new one and would be greatly upset with all of them if they try to discurage me now.

This will be my 3rd.

'74 type LT
'83 Z28 (My first new car)

Been a long while... Too long...

FirstLSK · 11-05-2008, 07:30 PM

This will be my first and my wife's second.

I always wanted a Corvette and she always wanted a 69 Camaro. Once we cast our eyes upon the 2010 Camaro, we couldn't stop staring at it. We stood there for 2 hours and drooled.

I told my wife that this is the first car that has appealed to me more than a Corvette. Amazingly, she told me that it is the first and only car that has appealed to her more than a '69 Camaro. There was only one logical thing to do....

EDIT: My wife was driving a '85 Camaro when I met her.

It'll be my first Camaro but not my first f-body. I had a 78' Trans Am bandit.

*The_Blur* · 11-05-2008, 07:34 PM

This will be my first Camaro, my first V8, my second Chevy, and my third GM car.

I wouldn't say that to fbodfather he insists it's still an F-body, there will even be an f in the vin for the body code.
And this will be my first Camaro.

Hell yes, and when FBodfather says it, it's a done deal.

The 2010 would be my first Camaro. I come from a Honda/Acura family. And unlike most of you guys, I have NEVER liked the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th gen camaros. But guess what? GM hit a home run with this car.

nathlo · 11-05-2008, 07:57 PM

My first Camaro. I did have a 96 (V6) Firebird for awhile though.
