Sorry I didn't answer you right away Saffire. Actually, that is my son's music and stand, but yes, my husband and I are both musicians and trombonists. We actually have our own big band/ wedding band, maybe I'll put a link to it up in my profile if I ever get it done!

Also, we got our registration! It's good to have connections with DMV because once they contacted the dealer, all of the sudden things got done. What I think happened is that the orginal Chevy dealer who sold it to the dealer I bought from sold it with a certificate of origin because the car was still New even though it was a 2013. So they dealer sold it straight to us right away without themselves titleing it themselves (I assume to avoid taxes). So since a used car dealer cannot sell a new car, it caused a set back in the paperwork. But the good thing is a have a "new" factory car that I got for 1/2 it's orginal price, and it's a Hot Wheels no less! Plus since it was still new, the warranty only just started a couple of months ago!

Also, last week we went to a local small car cruise at a Stewart's. It was our first time, and being what we thought was a "classic" cruise, I wasn't even sure we would be able to park with the other cars. So we pull up, and the worker moves a cone and directs us to the first parking spot! Then, as soon as we pull in, workers and the owner of the restaurant come up to us in the car. I had no idea why.

Come to find out, after seeing our car, they told us that a man named Scott from Detriot who works at GM and is part of the Camaro design division was on vacation and at the restaurant! What are the odds? Come to find out, he helped design the HWSE!

He was so generous with his time and taught us a bunch about our Camaro. What a nice man! I could of talked to him all night! However, probably the most awesome thing he told us was that his 90 year old mom drives an Orange 5th gen Camaro!

So finally, here is the first pic Of my HWSE since I finally figured out how to download pics, here is Scott and our HWSE!

My wife decided that she wanted to look for something to replace her 2002 Trans Am WS6 and asked me for help. She wanted to look at Camaro's but stated that there are so many on the road around here that she didn't want just one of the same. I asked if she thought about a Mustang as she had one of those before the T/A and she said no, there are as many of those around here like the Camaro's. A little research and I came up with a HW edition as a suggestion and we got to looking and found one in Indianapolis W/2200 miles on it and decided that would be the car and went and picked it up. She is just getting used to it and I will start the small touches here and there until next winter and then go a little deeper into the mods. The car came with a K&N CIA and Borla Exhaust and a Range AFM Eliminator. Since the Wife drives the 2 door cars I have to keep the sedan and currently campaign a 2006 Dodge Daytona Torred, the one thing these cars share are the Brembo brakes so if your looking to upgrade yours or are having any issues with the here's a link to my complete teardown of these units F/R. http://www.chargerforums.com/forums/...repaint+brembo

Pick up Day!

I saw you heading north on the suncoast probably 2 weeks ago in the rain. Traffic was bad and i think you got off near waters ave. i looked and looked for a hot wheels edition at one point and hadnt even seen one in person until you came by me in my tow truck. Im sure you probably thought i was some moron behind the wheel pullin up to check your car out.

That's crazy. I saw they were 50k online brand new but I didn't believe it because you know everything on the Internet is true...

Anyone know where to get a posterprint of the HWSE lined up at the INDY 500 Speedway?
