Dude the V6 was the 1st 5th gen I drove, my buddy Mike owns one, IT'S AWESOME TOO! You're going to love your car bro! Mikes car is modded out with small mods and its AMAZING, yes the cars are a little different animals but you won't be disappointed!

WHOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO STILL GRINNING!

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't get this stupid ass grin off my freaking face OH MY GOD! That car really just insults all other camaros I've owned!

Honestly now I am much less interested on what color I may settle for and just want one with really low miles and a good price! The thing drove like a dream, handled like it was on rails, and accelerated like a FREAKIN MONSTER! He turned off the traction thing and the other assist, forgot what its called, then told me I could cautiously accelerate in 1st then get 2nd aggressively. . . . . OMG! OMG! OMG!
Damn I need a beer lol I CAN'T STOP SMILING!



WHOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO! ! ! ! !
HAHAHAHAHA!!!!

BEST POST OF THE WEEK!

Right on, man!!!

That's good to hear! I mean obviously I have this enormous desire to get a V8 but for now all I need is the V6, though mainly for financial reasons. Can't wait to join you in permagrin land!

Brotha, I say to myself, and I'm sure you are right about now, "Man I NEED this and I sure as hell DESERVE it as well!!!" Now, welcome to the club Bubba! Like the man said not long ago, "I gotta get me one of these!!!" And rightly so! On a personal note, I just can't get over the ride. "It's so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend it." Now the car never made the man, the man always made the car. One last thing, you can replace the car, you can't replace you. Please drive careful, and let the games begin!!!

this is awesome.

I felt the same way the first time I drove one. About a month later I decided to do another test drive and you know what, it doesn't go away. I got the same rush as the first time I got to drive one.

I am pretty sure that a lot of guys that have SS cars feel this way still

Sell you my 2011 Orange Krate with 5000 miles on it. Babied all the way. Reasonably priced at $84,500.00 Orange Krate is a legend (read the thread). Sell him really? NO WAY! Orange Krate is like part of the family. If I were to part with him it would be for a ZL-1. The LS3 is a head snapper as a driver or passenger and just in pure beauty driving by. What a car.
