Post MY Camaro


or


This is Zyreal's Camaro...
Color: The deepest black they have to offer
Wheels: Black Chrome or Chrome, can't decide yet.
Type: Top of the line, what ever is the best...I'm hoping it has an SS badge though
Transmission: Paddle if offered, Manual otherwise
Coupe or Convertible: Coupe
If AWD was offered would I take it?: Yes
Personal Extras:Possibly new exhaust, any engine upgrade that would add more power, done by GM if possible. Aftermarket hideaways if they looked good enough.
Starting Soundtrack:
Ready, Steady, Go - Paul Okanfold (For when I roll off the lot)
Keep Hope Alive - The Crystal Method (When I first get on the freeway and get up to speed)
Firestarter - Prodigy (When I am blowing by everything else)


Okay, that's Zyreal's Camaro, let's see how everyone else would do theirs...I keep seeing different threads on different "I might take this or that" subjects, and I wanted to see what everyone is going to do with their car. If I forgot something add it on =)

TAG's Camaro



Color: Pewter w/ blk racing stripes.
Wheels: Either all chrome or chrome/black chrome
Type: Depends on cash...mid to top O' the line Z28 (hope it's the SS)
Transmission: 6spd Hurst short throw
Coupe or Convertible: Coupe (unless they make a folding hard top)
If AWD was offered would I take it?: Only if I could turn it off.
Personal Extras: Tint, JL stereo system (amp 10",12"), Chrome accents (if it doesn't come that way), a free flowing exhaust (depending on how good the stock is), would like hideaways, two tone leather (solid color w/ diff color piping),
Starting Soundtrack: There won't be a soundtrack as I leave the dealer. But, after a while, I will turn on the radio. I'm sure I won't have cd's in the car w/ me at the time. If I do, it'll be a burned cd w/ Guns and Roses, Metallica, etc. I like all music (just about).

Anyway....this is MY Camaro.

Yes, I deleted the wrong message. :eek:

I thought I was completely sold on the Black as well until Dragoneye had to go and throw a wrench in the gears with his photoshop business . Now i am torn between the following:






Color: Either Black w/ no stripes or Hugger Orange w/ gunmetal stripes
Wheels: I want mine with the Corvette Z06 wheels please!
Type: Whatever the entry level LS3 is called
Transmission: Manual 6 speed
Coupe or Convertible: Coupe
If AWD was offered would I take it?: If it didn't add much to the price, yes.
Personal Extras: I want to keep the factory warranty, so I will keep it mild for at least the first five years. Window tint, exhaust and that is about it.
Starting Soundtrack: Silence (except for the beautiful rumble of that 450 hp V8!)

Color: Either Black w/ no stripes, Hugger Orange with Gunmetal Gray stripes or solid red
Wheels: If I can get 19's and 20's I'll take 'em.
Type: V8 engine...probably not top dog unless it's priced low enough
Transmission: Paddle shift or automatic (too much traffic for manual here)
Coupe or Convertible: Coupe more than likely...but I do love that vert.
If AWD was offered would I take it?: If it didn't add much to the price, yes.
Personal Extras: Window tint, personalized plates, and a possible upgraded stereo unless they offer one that is good enough.
Starting Soundtrack: nothing but that bad ass sounding exhaust for the first week or so

Color: I am torn... Royal Metalflake Blue with White Rally Stripes or Black with White Stripes
Wheels: As big as GM will allow me to have... I'll take 22/24's if they are offered!
Type: Z/28 or SS (whichever is Top Dog)
Transmission: Not Sure... I think the paddle shift (a manual in a car with this much torque seems kindof silly...
Coupe or Convertible: Coupe. I don't like frivolity...
If AWD was offered would I take it?: Depends on cost, but probably.
Personal Extras: Depending on the exhaust... that might be first to go. After that it would need a bunch of ICE... stereo, iPod jack, alarm, etc.
Starting Soundtrack: Besides V8 rumble... Wolfmother "White Unicorn", The Bellrays "Revolution Get Down", Black Label Society & Zack Wylde "Blessed Hellride", and maybe some Killswitch Engage if the road opens up a bit...

For my render, I have the PC version of Need For Speed:Carbon, and I modded it a bit to be able to fully tweak the Camaro's colors, stripes, wheels and windows.

First off welcome to the boards!

Secondly, we have a "my camaro" thread which was started with the same question as above. It included options, roofline, transmission, even soundtrack that you'd be playing as you drove off the lot. I'll see if I can find it and bump it up for you. =)

Welcome to the site, darthknight72. No one has heard anything about the GTO as far as I know. At this point in time, no one has even confirmed production on the new model. It was said it would take a hiatus for a few years and then GM might make it again. If they do, I'd look for something kinda "retro" and built off the Zeta platform....at least that's what I'm hoping for!

In an ideal world they would bring back the Firebird and the GTO. Both fully re-designed along with the Camaro

What color is YOUR Camaro?

Now that we've seen all the colors, I want to hear what everyone wants to get. I'd like to drive either one of these: (I've always wanted a blue camaro, but can't decide which color of blue I like better)

Wow, great thread...lol.

I'd like this one, but in black...

Thanks in advance to who ever helps me out on this!!! I'm on vacation so I can't do it myself since I got Photo Shop at home (and, I have not done a color change in a LONG LONG time).
