Shocked by a camaro on the freeway... - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I was on the 101 north bound going to work, and in the HOV lane, I see a camaro, I get a little closer, I see its an SS. its a dark grey one, so I get behind it, I don't tailgate it or anything like that, I just stay behind it for a bit... I back off a little more, then get closer.. I couldn't get next to it because there was a ton of cars in the other lane.

I was gonna play with it a bit, so I flashed my brights..... he flashed his red and blue lights out of the back window

yeah, I backed the hell off real fast.

Googled it, there are a few camaro cop cars out there!

WHY?

First off he has a radio which is hard to out run.

Second, the V6 runs pretty damn quick and can reach the same top end speed as the V8 (155 MPH) unless you have it tuned out.

On topic: Ha! Funny about the cop car. AZ is sometimes really good at disguising their patrol cars and it seems like they've increased enforcement on the interstate in the past few years. I'm always really careful going through there.

Welll in general there are not a lot of Camaros in Vermont, so I do not think I will run into a "Police Camaro" here.
Glad he was not in a bad mood and pulled you over.

YIKES! I bet your facial expression was pretty funny.

Entaille · 11-20-2010, 08:28 PM

thats pretty funny! guys, please take the v6 vs v8 shit to another thread, no one really cares why you chose what you chose.

jhyland87 · 11-20-2010, 08:29 PM

I did.. and the v6 users got upset... Its a lot like talking about testicular cancer to a guy who has testicular cancer... It just wont end well

lil_red_v6 · 11-20-2010, 09:57 PM

this is in action by my area

the officer is a dick that drives it, he thinks he is king of the world

jhyland87 · 11-21-2010, 12:04 AM

Thats pretty cool for a cop car, still kinda weird though.
