The last Camaro I had...

...was a 94 convertible, red with a black top!

I think it's time for another one!

I've decided I want aqua, v6, with a sunroof, and stripes but I'm not sure which color. LS or 1LT.

Now the big decision....manual or auto?!

I was at Cars and Coffee in Plano, TX last Saturday and saw some gorgeous new Camaros, including a couple of aqua ones....



Any help with what I "must" have, plus the best pricing and dealer help, would be appreciated. Also, I'd be fine with getting a used one with the right miles/condition/price combination.

Thanks! I'm loving all the pix here!

You may have to get a used one. They discontinued ABM in November of 2009.

You can still find a new one here and there, but it's going to be difficult if you are picky.

Act fast and they might be able to locate one. ABM's are getting rarer. If you find one with no stripes they can always be added later.

If you're undecided on the trans, I suggest driving both of them and making your decision that way. There are way too many debates/discussions on this forum about the merits of the auto vs stick. I suspect the V6 auto will hold its value > than the manual should you ever decide to sell or trade it in. Good color choice though. Too bad they discontinued it.
