10,000 miles of permagrin - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I just rolled past 10,000 miles on my convertible and I still have the permagrin. I've had mine since 4/2/11 and have had no issues.
Um, besides some pinch marks that some tape resolved.

I'll be going to another state in 2 weeks to attend to family matters. I've already put the money down for my 2LT/RS 45th anniversary edition & will be getting it from the dealer in that state in 16 days!....

I couldn't help it - I had to go to a dealer near my house yesterday & play with a vert - I just wanted to learn it all so that when I get mine, I can program it quickly & start using everything!

After 10 minutes, me & the sales rep figured out that you must have the thing in the trunk extended or the top won't go down. The power seats are nice...A/C was incredible cold! I wanted to drive that thing so badly!

My wife did mention that there's virtually NO rear window to see out of - is that bothering anyone yet? is it really that bad when the top is up? I didn't see it as that bad, but it was one of her concerns....

That is why I bought the vert!!!!!
The coupe has the same roof lines/outward vision with no option of dropping the top!!!
I absolutely love my vert.
Enjoy yours!!!!

Even with issues with the to, I wouldn't trade my vert or go back to a coupe ! Driving the car over shadows any of these issues. I still love my vert !!!!!

Only 2158 on the odometer since Easter Sunday, but no issues either. I love this car! It was put away for winter this past week. Come on springtime!
