Purple Heart Camaro

Well not yet.

I wanted to say hello, i'm pretty close to buying an SS real soon. I am just having a hard time trying to sell my current car.

Here's what i drive currently...

and the purple heart thing is because im an OIF wounded grunt.

I dunno, to be honest, i wound have to mod the camaro.

The e63 AMG is a beast. 507hp its a straight line killer. German muscle.

I just feel bad driving a German car with PH plates. ha.

Your best "deal" may be on the 2010 - dealers trying to unload before their 2011 allocations start.. HUD (heads-up display) is about the only new feature for the 2011, besides a little more HP for the V6's and Synergy Green is available in all 5 body styles with 2011. I'd rather have the 2010 - first year of the 5th Generation - that's just opinion though...

You can't go wrong with your choice though, the Camaro is one hell of a machine. Lori

ok, if the Z isn't confirmed, then im going with the 2011 2SS with RS pack.

I was blown up in iraq real bad and i lost my left foot below my knee, so this is going to be a real adventure driving the 6 speed clutching with the prosthetic. ha!

Thanks man. But i don't wan't an auto, and lack of power is my problem. Don't forget lol I'm a soldier man!
Speed is just another way to get my fix of adrenaline. I'll be real honest and say that the AMG always gets me, it really has back aching torque. strapped with the 7 speed

The camaro is i guess a present and maybe an accomplishment for me. and i get it the way i want it and not regret it later saying "o i wish i would've got the manual." maybe im crazy or something i don't know, but ive driven manual box tranny's with this leg so im pretty comfortable with it, i just need enough leg room down there to move my feet. o wait, i mean FOOT. lol
