Rock On......

Thanks again. Took her on a nice ride this evening after work. She handles really well. My only complaint is that the BT streaming music is pretty sub-par compared to my last car. Going to pick up a small USB stick, transfer my tunes, and plug it in. Received more unsolicited compliments tonight, even from complete strangers.

I was thinking about putting in a K&N air intake this weekend but it is a bit pricier than I expected. Maybe in a month or so.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Congrats on your 2LT/RS

Enjoy the ride. . . !

I'm a first timer, also. I am loving my car. I look at it from every angle and just love it. I have a 2013 Regal GS that I use a few days a week, but I am using my Camaro a lot.

Congrats - you will enjoy her

Muscle Car Lover · 07-19-2014, 08:36 PM

Congrats! Glad you finally got one!

If you are truly a geek, I am a scientist so we should get along well

Valkyrja · 07-21-2014, 08:31 AM

I managed to get plenty of driving time this weekend. :-) The mileage is going to take some getting used to, that is for sure.

Yes, I am a nerd and a geek. Have been for decades and currently make a living doing the InfoSec thing. Well until the bubble pops anyway.

ssj455, congrats! How that you are enjoying yours add much as I am mine.

Back to the work thing. I have car payments to cover now, lol.

Valkyrja · 07-26-2014, 11:02 AM

This pic came out much better than expected so I thought I would share.

Did my first long trip with her, she drove like a dream. Averaged about 25mpg, not too shabby.

That is a very nice looking car, congrats and welcome aboard

I am loving my Camaro!!! As clean as I keep it, I want it to stay clean all the time. I forgot what it is like to have a 2 door. Love it!!!

That is awesome. My family asked to see my new baby and to get rides so I traveled to see them.

One person commented that she was clean inside and wondered how long that would last. (I tend to practically live out of my cars .) I replied that this one would be staying clean. MOF, I cringe

with the bugs and road dirt that gets on her. Need to schedule weekly detailing time.
