and its pretty awesome not going to lie =]. problem is it gets dirty quickly but i wash it weekly on fridays every week. [= btw is leaving the car out in the sun bad? =/
Yes gets dirty quick... that is a bummer.
It's like any other car, if you keep it out of the sun, it will be better for the paint and the interior. But if you have no choice... you have got to leave it out, oh well.
Check out the other threads about car care there are lots of great tips on how best to maintain the car. Good luck and enjoy!!

Miles on my Camaro: 2982
Days I have owned her: 485
Averages out to 6 miles a day
This is due to the fact that she is put away for winter.

I hear you!!

But I say "to each his own"!!!
Because I know long after mine is gone, 20 + years form now, one of these "Garage Queens" are going to drive by, and I am going to go "WOW look at the SWEET 5th Gen Camaro!!!" And be wishing I still had mine.

But is is all good, we are all Camaro lovers!!

I've had mine since first of Dec and just went over 6k. Very comfortable DD, but like someone else said the windshield chips/cracks very easily on this thing. Never had that problem with my Mustangs, but they were not this comfortable as a DD either.

I'd imagine some would be a lot more reluctant to take their baby out if they also had something they could beat up and not worry about. But I hear ya
