My experiences with the 5th Gen w/ pics...
Yesterday, I went to the Barrett-Jackson at the South Florida fairgrounds in West Palm Beach not knowing what to expect. I knew there would be a 2010 Camaro there, but I wasn't expecting so sit in one or anything. Much to my surprise, I was able to SIT IN AN SS AND DRIVE AN LT!!! This car is everything you've all been waiting for and then some!!! Everything just felt right in the car, exactly the way I expected it to. I'm not going to get too much into detail about how things felt, or ergonomics or anything because there are professional reviews out there that we've all already read. I will say that those who ordered the V6 will not be disappointed in any way. Without further ado, here are some photos I snapped with my Blackberry.
**Some of the colors are a little different from how they look in real life... This is what I parked next to... GM was all over the place once you walked through the doors... This was outside before you walked in. I thought it was pretty ballsy to have this thing sitting on it's side like that... The new SRX the new Cruze Before the flames start coming, I only shot this one because it was one of the worst colors I've ever seen on a "sports car" This one has the Inferno Orange interior package and it looks AWESOME in person Spyker...nuff said Now for the classics... Not a classic, but wow! Yenko!!! Close up of the dovetail... The show was awesome! Anyone in or near South Florida needs to get down there ASAP! Good job GM...you absolutely nailed this car!

I LOVE that white Solstice with the 'lucerne blue' racing stripe down the hood like the 70 1/2 trans am!

My pleasure...literally. I had a perma-grim for like an hour when I first saw them, then when I got to sit in the SS, I couldn't contain myself. Then I got to DRIVE AN LT (one of three)!!! I'm actually gonna go back again tomorrow after work to do it again. Hopefully my camera will hold it's charge that day so I can get better pics than my Blackberry can take.
