It's a symbol of Chevy surviving.

My car was produced in the very 1st month (April 09), so I know what it is to be one of the very few. I'd much rather see Camaro's then Mustangs!!

Atleast the Browns season is right around the corner- that should cheer you up!!

This is the same bike.


And this is that bike about 10 days later.


Shit happens.
I saw your sig. I just know how bad that program makes everyone look like a total DA. Amatures and Pros alike.

Anyone recall the 4th gens? One on every corner back then. Now....very rare I see a DECENT looking one (unless I look in my stable, there's 2).

It was true about 1st gen Camaros too. My uncle came home from Vietnam and got a 69 Z28 and totally wreaked havoc on that car and traded it in when it was used up. Dented on every corner. They were just a fun fast little car to him he said and everyone had one in one form or another. He does wish he'd have kept that car now, though.

In about 10 years or so after the last 5th gen rolls off, it'll be that way again. Mark it on the calendar.

I see a lot of 4th gens where I live, my neighbor has two of them in pretty good condition. A lot of people that have them around town don't take very good care of them...

I know there are more than a few in Victoria, but I rarely see them. I might come across 2-3 a week. There are far more Mustangs, and Challengers on the Island.

I've seen a whole lotta Camaro's with dealer tags lately. They're selling like crazy. I don't mind it I guess. Mines modded and stays garaged 5 days a week. I remember two years ago when I first got mine, I used to wave to other Camaro owners and get a wave back. Now, not so much. I didn't buy mine to stay exclusive, but there's no way in hell i'm losing it in a crowd...unless it's a Camaro5 crowd

I see some around my area, but the majority are teens with RS / steel black wheels. Hardly ever see a nice 2ss!

Sadly, 5th gens are "me too" cars just like Mustangs anymore in the Metro Detroit area. Still great cars, but I can't drive anywhere without seeing a handful.

Necessary evil to keep our beloved 5th gen. Embrace it.
