Speed limits in most the US are 35-50 mph....so why do you need a 300 or 400+HP car to drive the speed limit in 2nd gear?

Actually I'm waiting for a 550hp Z28!

Why wanting that car?
- Looks goood
- I live in Europe and want to ride "different"
- At the green light, I'll burn all other drivers
- come on, nobody respects speed limits 24/7
- even when driving slowly, just knowing I can burn anyone is sufficient to feel good

Cuz I want to waste gas, burn rubber in quiet neighborhoods, drive slow in the fast lane, park in handi-capped spots (sideways), blow exhaust into honda's and sound better, drive BY the tracks but never into or onto one , get attention from the women just to shoot them down all the while destroying the planet and making a poor financial decision for the sake of appeasing whatever mental illness caused this obsession with muscle cars since childhood and the camaro since first glance. Also for leaving in the garage under a cover anytime it is sunny out, windy out, raining, snowing , hailing, cloudy, or if the whole damn sky is falling. Anddd I needed a grocery getter.

Truth be told? I wanted a 67 or 69 GTO or a 68-69 Camaro since I was playin with hot wheels. Fulfilling a life long void and spoiling myself for all the hardships I've endured.

I have always wanted a nice big block 68. I saw the 2010 concept car at a show and had to have one right then, right there. Aesthetically, I think it looks better than any vette I have ever seen. Heavier no doubt but still a decent weight to power ratio.

Like someone else in this thread already stated, JUST LOOK AT IT!

Because I can!!!

tjbusa · 09-03-2009, 07:58 AM

Time is of the essence, CARB, ecconomy, fuel, life, buying american, fun, beautiful, colllectable, and no camaros since 2002 is plenty of reasons.

Because I have had one of every previous generation and still have my 4th Gen and had it for 16 years. Rolled my 93 out of the showroom June 6 of 1993 with 4 miles on it. Has 90,000 on it now. Wouldn't trade it or sell it to anyone.
