My wife took the camaro to work,when she got home,she slammed her hand on the table and said ," what the F'ck did you do to that car now" I laughed but didn't tell her I had 391's installed,a vmax tb & a vitesse tb controller set on 6 with a cai. She told me at a few stop lights some guy in a BMW kept revving up,looking over & laughing,so she got into it.I'm glad she's so good with a standard. She said "first,second ,third,I had to let off,besides burning rubber,I was at the next light and no BMW to be seen".Over the years I didn't tell her about other mods I made but I'm sure the Diablo trinity tune,headers,HF cats,resonator deleted Xpipe and Borla attak mufflers helped too.

Hate to say it, but my sedan gets more attention and compliments than the Camaro.

Anyway, lets see.. yeah I'm boring and never street race. Just get compliments nonstop driving anywhere. I like my L99, it'll pull 1.5 60' times and the mods are really just getting started.

Niceee. The car is just so hard not to look at while its in motion or just sitting there aggressively.

I live in Georgia and anytime i see a 4 door SS, its a breathe of fresh Air. Especially at car shows they grab all the attention.

Because I haven't seen one anywhere you are right. I would definitely take the time to have a look.

Love when i start my L99 up and watching people jump and then that cam phaser kicks in and starts to lop hard, and then the people come up and here come the questions. Most the time the question is how can such a new car sound so good like the old cars.

Well based on the fact the day shift left early and they cancelled the aft shift at the Honda plant I work at because of severe weather causing road closures all over the place....I guess its warranted.

Wimps.

I love the current Accord Sport 6M sedan, but I wish it had 200+ HP.
