First, a huge THANK YOU to Scott and his team for allowing us the privilege to be a part of this event. We were extremely fortunate to be able to sit in and crawl around EVERY car. I overheard Scott say to someone that even though the cars get pretty beat up because of the sprayed-on interiors, dropping the ropes was the right thing to do for us. That shows what an awesome guy he is and how proud he is of the Camaro. I had the opportunity to speak with him for a few minutes and wow, I can't think of a better person to be working on this project.

I was the one that asked about the ambient lighting, and GLBL WMR pretty much covered his answer. I was hoping for a definite yes or no as to whether or not it will be ready at production, but I honestly believe if he knew he would have told us. GLBL WMR described the interior feeling of the car perfectly. It has an awesome cockpit feel to it. I felt like as soon as I stepped in the interior swallowed me up (in a good way) and I was in control of the car. It has a very snug, yet comfortable and spacious feeling. The pictures of the orange seats do not look anything like they do in person. For me, they are absolutely gorgeous in person and are the perfect color orange. They do not appear red at all. If you are anywhere near the Philly area, you have to get to the show to see these cars!

It was great to meet those of you I spoke briefly with. Thanks again to Scott, the entire Camaro team, and the folks at 5thgen.org for organizing this awesome event. I'll never forget it.

PS - GLBL WMR, you caught me and my dad in a couple of your photos of the silver SS. I'm an internet star now

Edit - Just wanted to edit my original post to also thank the guys from SLP who brought a G8 Firehawk for us to see. I believe it was only there for us because I saw them sneaking it out the back just before the show opened to the public. It was a pretty cool looking car for those who didn't see it. It had a flat black hood and some pretty impressive hardware under the hood. Hopefully someone got some pics. Anyone remember what they said for horsepower? I remember 500+
