I have obsessed over Camaros since i was like 12. My dad ordered 1989 Bright Blue Metallic IROC 350. I loved this car. Then right before my 15th bday (I was convinced I was getting this car for my bday) HE TRADED IT IN ON A SONOMA! In december 1991 with 21000 on the clock.

I never forgave him

FF to July 2008. I decided to buy a like car. had to be 89, 350, no ttop. Search and search and find one, in cali. It has leather (ours didnt) and seemed nice. I passed with the advice of my soon to be wife. She told me to look for the original one. I was skeptical but a short 7 days later ...



I found IT... yes the one, in WV. It had 2 other owners since my dad. The first owner March 1992 through (get this) 2004. It just turned 34000 miles in 2004. The next owner racked them up. I got it in 2008 with 86000 on it but still 100% original!





Tranny is giving me problems right now but i will NEVER sell it.

Keep up the obsession!

Thats insane man, what a good story. I'm so glad you found the car.

Just back from a 30 minute drive tonight just to get her out on the road. The V6 flies with ease

Took the pics earlier this afternoon when my wife got home from work



I have not had a chance to drive her much since the wife has taken over. I have placed an order for the identical color in a 2SS. I have read that I need to get a order number from my dealer and am going to make sure tomorrow as I am kind of worried reading the horror stories of dealers saying they ordered but actually have not.

I have not driven the V8 yet. I know the V6 is flat out awesome Does anyone own both and or have at least test driven both? I of course know there will be a difference in power but is there a huge difference or is it somewhat subtle?

Thanks for the help,

Don

i don't even have mine yet and it's consumed me. seriously the week i decided "okay i'm definitely getting a camaro" i literally was not sleeping at night. i would wake up at like 2am and lay awake for an hour or more thinking about the car. i woke up at 4am on a SATURDAY morning because i couldn't stop thinking about it. i'm sleeping much better now but i still haven't ordered my car yet. it's driving me NUTS! i just want to order it already!
