Are new Camaros becoming HO-HUM ? - Page 8 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

DocKevin · 05-01-2011, 08:12 AM

Why are all of these old topics getting revived?

On topic though, like I said in the other topic, did anyone seriously think their $25k-$35k Chevrolet car was going to be unique for any real length of time? I'm surprised its still as rare as it is after essentially two year of production.

If it bothers you, change it to make it your own. If it seriously bothers you, then you probably need to look at changing your perspective rather than your car...

From the day I bought my 1st 69 camaro in 1977 for $650 through today, I have always loved camaros. Just something that wont go away. I think I'm a junkie. . . LOL

That was from 6-16-10

Steve RS/SS · 05-01-2011, 09:33 AM

I only see 1 or 2 every once in awhile where I live and it's a densely populated area. Everytime I get behind the wheel it's like the first day I took her home.

Z28RockStar · 05-01-2011, 09:35 AM

Talked yesterday to a guy who traded his 2010 Vette for a 2011 Camaro, his reason? It's as fun to drive, as cool looking and he can put his wife kids and dog all in it if he wants, in the Vette all he could fit was the dog and he said the dog wasn't allowed so yeah. Camaros are awesome. He said he liked that it was bigger a lot. IDK, I wouldn't own a Vette so I'll have to take his word on it.

tooslow · 05-01-2011, 10:21 AM

They are everywhere where I am. I see the same 4 going the opposite direction on my morning commute and about a dozen any given day when I go out for lunch. Market is definitely saturated.

scottyvegas · 05-01-2011, 10:54 AM

I dont see many SS's running around Vegas......

Neozyne · 05-01-2011, 01:09 PM

I see a good mix of challengers and camaros.. def more camaro tho. I embrace being a bit unique and thought my car would hold true to that for a little longer then it has. For instance I leave work one day and see and orange and black camaros parked next to mine and im like CRAP! lol

NBD tho in 20 years ill still be rockin this bad boy with hopes of high horse power and a mean rumble

xXSilencerXx · 05-01-2011, 01:40 PM

I see them all the time. Don't see too many 4th gens around though.

stingrayj · 05-01-2011, 04:10 PM

4th gens used to be everywhere around my next of the world. They are pretty rare these days, though. I only see about 4 5th gens on a good day. I may see up to 10 Challengers in a day, but Mustangs are by far the popular choice for muscle cars around here.

Aside from that, I practically live in a rice feild!

GreenCamaroGuy · 05-01-2011, 05:18 PM

They're not ho-hum just yet, I just took a ten minute drive and got about 7 thumbs up. Everyone loves the SGM though so that may have something to do with it also

Maybe I'm spoiled, but I sure liked it better last year when I was almost the only one around.

=========================

Most Americans are not used to seeing pretty cars like this because they havn't been on our streets since the 70s and many were not even bornn then. Its a big deal for them since they were weened on ugly civics, camrys and maximas. Its like culture shock. But you never tire of looking at a thing of beauty. The more you see the more you want to be seen in yours. Do you understand what I'm sayin'?
