I have a friend of a friend who has a slighty older Camaro 2SS I believe it is a 2010-2011 and he stores his in the garage and says it he has not even touched the windshield wipers. He not only does not drive it in any thing that is not sunny, he barely drives it period.

Why?

This is my only car that I have ever owned. I saved up the money for it and I want to drive the hell out of it.

A couple months ago I went to a Cars & Coffee near me (Katie's in DC) and there was a Red GT-R I respected so much because he had brake dust all over his wheels dirt all on the low parts of the body. You could tell he drove the heck out of his $100k car.

BUT then you have $30-40k-ish Camaro's being garage kept?

I guess I just do not see the point of a Camaro less than a ZL1 being garage kept and not driven more. (I cannot be alone right? lol)

Please do not think I think negatively of you if you garage keep your Camaro. I respect everyone's decision even if I do not agree with them.

#1 I have a garage to keep it in, so I do
#2 not everyone got a v6, some of us have rediculous amounts of power to try and go anywhere bad weather. It DOESNT HAPPEN. The slightest incline in snow and you're SOL. Sometimes it's just NOT SAFE. And I'd rather not risk my $40k car which I have another $35k sunk into just to be seen in snow. Pass.
#3 I trust NOONE. So it won't sit out unless it has to
#4 it's not my only car so if I can spare it from the salt and rock cinders pa loves to slather all over the road then I will avoid driving it through a sandblaster.
#5 I want to ftw
#6 when I wash it I want it to stay clean when I'm not cruising in it
#7 when I do drive it (which is all summer) I drive the piss out of it no questions asked.
