How Much Do you Love Your Machine?

Hey guys!
As some may know, by reading my previous posts, im buying my Camaro this week. Although Ive almost ruled out that I in fact DONT want the Synergy Green, Im trying to decide what color I do want. Ive narrowed it down to Yellow with black stripes, Black with or without orange stripes and orange interior, or my most favorite, Imperial Blue Metallic. So ALL day ive been on this site looking at posts, and looking at official color threads...and its got me to thinking. ive been obsessed with this car since Transformers, and when I actually knew it was a real car, and have been looking/driving/talking about it ever since. I test drove 3, keeping one overnight. My main concern now is...is anyone tired of it? I feel like since I know a lot about it, I will lose interest in it. BUt then I laaugh and think how could I say that? Haha. I was checking out the Do's and Dont's thread, and it has built my confidence back up in how much I want it, because I can relate to a lot of what everyone is doing and isnt doing, and most of them I wont and will be doing as well! So as Camaro enthusists, will you guys post whats peaked your interest about the car since youve had it? Please. A lot fo you all have had it for a while, and maybe the new is rubbing off?

I bought my Pontiac G5 new in 08 for first car and I still love it and still love washing and waxing it, but when the new Camaro came out, and when getting it was a reality for me, I felt my love for the G5 go down, and Im wondering if anyone has experienced that with your Camaros? I highly doubt I will fall out of love with it. Too bad we have to sell Amy (G5) to get the Camaro, otherwise I would keep her.

Please post your stories, and attention that the car gets!

My personal favorite about the car is I love the interior and exterior curves of it, and I L-O-V-E the attention it grabs from everyone when driving. Thanks!! :]

Oh my second important thing is, how much of a difference does the ambient lighting make? Since we arent getting the Synergy, We will prob get the 2LT, or 1LT loaded just I could care less about leather, because we have cars with leather and it tends to be a pain. My main concern is, I want the Lighting but dont care if I get leather or not. Also want the steering controls, 4 pack gauge cluster, BA sound, and sunroof. Right now its looking like we are getting IBM, B, or RY, 1LT loaded, with RS package. If we get yellow, I will most likely buy the yellow trim kit, and if blue or black is bought, I will get some other trim kit color. But I dont think that the lighting comes with it...so whats yalls opinion on the lighting? Should I not worry about it if I cant get it?

enough to not let her set in the garage half a year. look at this way she was born to run the road and she is ready every minute of the day so when you guys put her or he up she or he is SAD and she just might be upset with you, so when you guys or having problems with your baby think about it.

I spent a whole 4-day weekend prepping my garage for my Camaro. I'm deployed right now, and next to my wife and son, I miss that car. But, I pass time by ordering performance and aesthetic upgrades for when I get back. I have a stack of boxes sitting next to her in the garage right now.

I wish I had some good stories to post, but I have quite a novel in my journal thread. There's lots of pictures of my ibm including a few videos. I plan on having quite a few posters and another few videos made in the future.

I spent a whole weekend pressure washing my driveway before it arrived. And no. I have not gotten tired of it! I still have a PERMAGRIN.

Ask this question again when the Z28 officially gets announced and some people might answer differently, but I will say I love my car more and more every day.

I love mine so much that I'm building it a new heated garage for it to stay in during the long cold North Dakota winters. There will also be room for his older brother too.
