***I've been on here for awhile and have posted plenty of pics on my progress, but I figured I would start a new Build Thread, so here it is!
First off, I would like to thank everyone here on the forum from Members to the Mods to the Vendors... you have all been very helpful and insightful in helping not only me but everyone on here
I'm 25 from the Madison area of THE BADGER STATE. This is my first Camaro... I know, I'm a newbie! I have always liked cars, but never really had anything too fast, closest fun car was a Mazda 3 (which is what I traded in for the Camaro). Most of my friends have been doing the whole car scene since high-school. My friends current cars include: 2006 Trailblazer SS with a 406, 2003 S/C Mustang GT, 1970 Twin Turbo Chevelle, 2004 Mitsubishi Evo, Dodge Magnum RT and then there is me with my 2010 Camaro 2SS/RS.
I will admit I was never a big fan of the 4th Gen Camaro, just didn't appeal to me... but I remember getting all excited when Chevrolet was going to bring it back. I remember watching Transformers for the first time, and when you see Bumblebee come out of that tunnel after "scanning" the car... WOW! I fell in love with it and told myself, 'I am going to own that car.' Well as you can see, I did it
and have enjoyed every minute of it.
