Like "Ohhhh...this Camaro, it's soooo perfect!!" lol...glad you like the car though!
I may as well been on "X". This car was pure joy on wheels, wrapped in sheetmetal.

See, Dursin?!?!?

And Prostock, you're absolutely right...it's not "just a car."

After reading your post - we are more then excited. We can't wait for the car to come. We actually remodeled our garage around the car- LOL It's almost finished - just putting in the epoxy floor this weekend.

Thanks again-
You're very welcome, and I'm glad you liked the writeup. I hope you feel the same way about this car when you finally get it. There's absolutely no other feeling like it!

Thank you!!! That was one of the things I was going for..."it's long, so it'd better be engaging!"

not soon enough!! I've got 2.5 years to wait, possibly only 2. As much as I want this car (and I do....oh boy, do I want it bad!), I won't put myself in a poor financial situation to get it...that's just not smart.

It is a review like this that will make people pay attention. This doesn't come across as fanboyish, this comes across well-written and well-planned. Congrats!!
Thank you for the kind words. It took me 3 hours or so, to try and figure out how I wanted to write this...I had to get it right...which is no easy task when trying to describe something the English language doesn't have a word for. But I gave it my best shot!

I suppose you could say I have an investment in it...not monetary...but I certainly feel obligated to it, this site and all of you. I went in there expecting to find a two-door G8, good but not great....and I came out thinking of it as a 2+2 Corvette...I was, and am still, floored.

Joe -- great writeup! What makes me even happier is the responses to the writeup.

Team Camaro really has tried to make this the best Camaro ever -- and the best car you've ever owned.

Unfortunately, human nature is such that you will never please 100 percent of the population. -- but I don't ever recall a car that's garnered this much attention. You had to witness the response at Auto Shows last year when we started putting production cars on the floor --

Thanks all - we're glad the Camaro has 'struck a chord'.........
Really?!?! Did I cause the Great Fbodfather to lose his words?!?

You folks have pulled of nothing short of an automotive miracle, Scott. And I'm not exaggerating. I can only imagine how future model years will progress and improve, there's some part of me that doesn't think it's possible. You all deserve every single sale and more that this car earns you...THANK YOU, so very, very much.

Meh...I'd consider it more of a full-orchestra Symphony. I'd call it, Camaro the 5th.
