New vert owner - long time Camaro / Vette guy
I've gravitated more to BMW's recently, but I've kept Chevy trucks, Camaro's and Vettes in and out of the stable for many years.
Previous Camaro's: 1989 IROC - purchased new 1987 Camaro CMC NASA road race car 1968 Camaro hot rod - 383 1969 Camaro hot rod - late model corvette LT1 and front suspension Previous Vettes: 1991 Z07 coupe - eventually turned into a dedicated road race car 2003 Z06 2006 and 2007 Z51 coupes w/ 6MT Previous convertible: 2008 BMW 328i (currently for sale btw - shameless plug!) Current truck - 2016 Colorado LT 4x4 And last but not least - the latest addition to the fold, 2016 1SS vert, 6MT in hyper-blue!! |

Beautiful! You're gonna love it! I also just traded in a BMW on a 16 'vert, and I couldn't be happier!

But ya - I'm very stoked to have this upgrade over the 328i. I was looking at some 335is and M3 verts and the Jag XK and then figured I should at least give the Mustang and Camaro's some consideration. Thought seriously about a 2007-9 Shelby GTS-500, but then when I read about the re-design in 2016 especially with the automatic top I was sold. And then I drove one and it was as good as they said and more!! |

My first car was blue - custom metallic color, owned that car for 20 years. 1963 Impala. I've always loved the C5 Nassau Blue and the C6 LeMans blue. Also owned a X5 4.6is in a rare blue similar to this hyperblue called Estoril Blue. Oh - and come to think of it I even had a Mitsu Evo IX in dark blue. Ya - you could say it's my favorite car color. But depending on the car - red is a very close second. For sure on a Corvette. Oh - my second C6 was Lemans Blue. |

BMW guy here too. Also a big fan of blue! I've had a few Chevys in my day too. It's been a long time though and this Camaro SS is the perfect homecoming.
Looking forward to finding this a new home so I can get my Hyper Blue SS.
