The addiction doesn't end - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

While I was waiting (sometimes patiently and sometimes not so much) for my car, I was practically addicted. I pretty much had a one track mind. I was like that dog from the "Beggin Strips" commercial where he's obsessed with "BAAACONN" but all I could think of was "CAMARO". I thought this would all end once I got my car.

Oh what a fool I was. Now it's just transferred. Instead of "OMG I want my car" it's now "OMG I want to drive/play with my car." I'm sitting here at work just wanting to go outside and go for a drive. I was going to eat on-site today but I think I'm going to have to go somewhere and grab something.

A wise man named Rick James once said "Cocaine's a helluva drug." I think what he meant to say is "Camaro's a helluva drug." Maybe this will subside later on (since I just got it yesterday). But now I don't know. Only time will tell.

Please, please tell me I'm not alone.

I'll let you know after Friday, as Monday will be my first day driving to work in my Camaro.

Hate to break it to ya, but it will NOT SUBSIDE!!!...

1600+ miles and 6 wks later, and every day is like Christmas with this car!!!...

You will never be the same again!!!...LOL...."in a good way"...

You are not alone...everyone I've "spoken" with that has their "baby" cannot believe that this is the most amazing journey in a car that we've ever taken!!!...

I cannot believe how lucky and priviledged I am to own the GREATEST AND MOST AMAZING CAR EVER BUILT!!!...

Sometimes at night, if I'm not out driving my car, I just sit in it with the stereo CRANKED in my garage...LOL...

I have my hands on the wheel like a little kid and I'm making believe I'm out there "drivin' it like I stole it"...

This car reduces us all to insane fanatics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...AND, I wouldn't have it any other way!!!...

Congrats and welcome to the Camaro experience!!!...

I'm so jealous. Waiting has sucked I can't imagine what its going to be like when it finally arrives.

Rogue Leader · 07-07-2009, 11:32 AM

Youre tellin me, maybe its my OCD but I am sitting here at my desk and all I can think about is how I wanna go outside and clean the dirt off my drivers seat....

FirstLSK · 07-07-2009, 11:34 AM

Oh no....... you mean it the insanity doesn't end??

I would cancel my order now but I just can't go cold turkey.

It shouldn't be much longer now and I can't wait to feel your pain.

I went on a cruise this weekend and missed my car. 1000 miles and I was it almost every day.

Axslynger · 07-07-2009, 11:37 AM

Your not alone.......I've got a few places to go today and usually I would NOT be looking forward to it. Sick and twisted as it may seem.....going to pay my local taxes with a smile on my face???.....thats just WRONG....but I can't help it. I get to drive there in my Camaro!!!!!

vsgls1 · 07-07-2009, 11:37 AM

Haven't driven it since Friday. The Florida summer sucks. It rains daily and is hot as hell. Not a fan of constantly washing it, etc. Once Sept. comes around it will be driven alot more.

vm1971 · 07-07-2009, 11:53 AM

yup. it will NEVER end. even with my current (awesome) lineup... all i want to do is play/drive/floor it/detail/wash/carress.

when its maro time....

i may be institutionalized.

WYcamaro · 07-07-2009, 11:54 AM

I know how you guys feel.. had the car for a week and already have 875 miles... I can't stop driving... sitting at work and all i can think about is driving....

I thought you traded in your other ride? Aren't you a bit young to have a stable of vehicles? I don't cheat on my Camaro
