Got the new Camaro last night and Joan drove it home. We parked it for the first time and when we went to leave the key wouldn't turn the lock. Thank goodness we have seen this before and cranked the steering wheel and it started. Wheels weren't even that turned...strange.
So I go steal the Camaro from where my wife works and take it on a 130mile 4 hr cruise down the Pacific Coast Highway! The kids and parents hanging out the windows of an suv at a light next to me yelling at the car probably made me blush but that was pretty funny. Through Swami's in Encinatas, Solana Beach, Del Mar between the race track and the beach, Torrey Pines then I freestyled it for a while before turning back on HWY 1.
But the feeling of driving this car is so much like my 77 TA and my 67GTO...it's a pure muscle car even the V6 auto. I had my right hand at the base of the auto shifter and could feel it move when I took off. I can feel the motor purr by holding the base of the shifter...man that's a muscle car! I feel so conected to the car when I'm driving it.
It was raining last night and I love the Traction-control! Wish my other old muscle cars had that in the damn rain. I kept the rpm's real varied only hitting 5Krmp two times passing real quick. Hit the gas for just a second and you're doing 80! holy crap! I love it.
