New Miami 5th gen owner - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Skizioli · 03-31-2012, 04:59 PM

Hello guys and gals, my name is Mike, and this Friday I will be a proud owner of a 2012 camaro 2LS. I'm 23 years old and still remember the day I saw a picture of my dads old 69 camaro SS. From that day forward it was my dream to own a camaro and I finally got the means to do so. Wish it could be an SS just like my fathers but due to being under 25 my insurance would go through the roof, so I will drive the v6 with pride.

A little about me; well as I said I'm 23 years old and grew up in homestead but later moved to cutler ridge and now to Kendall. I work for Publix supermarkets and also serve as a military police officer in the florida national guard.

The camaro I'm getting is a 2LS in inferno orange metallic with black rally stripes.
If there is anything else you would like to know feel free to ask

Hey Mike!! CONGRATS on the new ride, and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wive's, husbands and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

Congrats, but I have to ask, how is it that a 23 year old who works at a supermarket and part-time military can afford a $60k out the door car? Do you still live at home and eat beans and rice?

Skizioli · 04-05-2012, 01:44 PM

I work full time with Publix, and I'm getting the 2LS with rally stripes for $23,851 out the door, financing all of it. Also as an update I'm picking it up tonight so tomorrow seems a good day to cruise up to south beach

Sorry. I thought you said you were getting a ZL1. Must be all the buzz about that car on here today.
