As for the top portion, I never said it's impossible to pay over $34k for a Camaro. Not once. I said that is the base price and you need to stop acting like it's not. You'd sure be annoyed if I ran around saying that the GT500 is $50k. You sure as hell can pay over $34k for a Camaro, just like you can pay over $46k for a GT500!
I don't know why you feel such disdain for the Camaro (yet post on a Camaro forum). Your performance comment was a bit amusing though. It sure sounds like you feel threatened for some reason. I have no idea why as you're running a supercharger and obviously pull better numbers.
EDIT: The 2010 back-end is not hideous, in my opinion. I see tons of 'em out on the road and the back-end looks completely fine to me. Pictures make it look worse then it is.

Ok Death I am not going to derail this thread again but I will answer you.
Black GT made a comment about pricing along the lines that the forums is the only place you will fine a cheap(34k-) Camaro. I then made my comment as a
JOKE because I was in a thread were plenty of owners were talking about that exact same thing...finding it for MSRP or lower. As for that, I am not alone when I say the Camaro is SOME AREAS are still over 40k. The OP paid 40k+ for his. I have talked to plenty of people that have paid this price as well.
It truly depends on where your at in the US. Sure some will do drop ships and go out of their way to get one cheaply, while others will not do all of those things and would rather deal with the local dealer. I never said as well you cannot get the car for that price. Its on the dam web site as that price. But once again
IN MY AREA the car is still 5k~10k over. Its like that for some Mustangs as well.....its just one of the things you have to deal with when you live in a city where Opra lives literally on a Island in the middle of the causeway...
As far as feeling disdain towards Camaro owners..LOL
Thats in your head man. The guy who taught me how to work on my Mustang ran one of the fastest Camaro's (on the streets) for years...yeah he had a fast mustang too...Another good bud I known for years runs a Ultra Z(?) Camaro that does high 10's on the track, and is a daily driver. I am helping him look for a new Camaro. As a matter of fact, Our shop currently has 4 GT's 5 Camaro's (2 5th Gens) and 2 GT500's. Plus we have Civics running in the 12's for the import crowd.
It seems to me that people get to wound up in defending their brand. We crack on each other daily at the shop. Its fun ! But man here, on this site, if you say one little thing that's not in line with what others think here....BAM!!!!! FULL ATTACK!!!! GET HIM!!!! BUUUURRRRN HIM!!!! Brah's calm down a bit. People here will call Mustangs "Rustangs" "5.0 Slow" yada yada yada. If someone cracks on my car I am going to crack back simple. Its all in the fun. Some of you seem to want to take it personal though, and that is why I am saying to just relax. Heck I help changed a exhaust last night.....
As for the Wolf ? Yeah I am not threatened at all...I run high 11's with Tires, and low~mid 12's without. Also its not like I run everyday. Its just for fun for me.
In the end, I keep saying I like all cars......So if I crack on a Maro when someone cracks on a stang....Heh its just a defensive mech built in
I mean I deal with you bowtie guys everyday
