It will be some kind of accomplishment if I keep the car after the title comes in the mail... considering the last two cars I owned I traded them in as soon as the title came in the mail.

It will be a milestone if I keep the car longer than four months.

It will be a keeper if I can keep this as long as I own my XLR. (21 months now)

This is MY Camaro. It is my dream car. I really mean that. The way this car looks, feels, drives..... no I am never getting rid of her. I plan to have this car for as long as humanely possible. The only reason I can see giving her up is if she gets totaled in an accident. Even if the engine goes, I will probably just drop a new one in her.

MY CAMARO, YOU CAN'T HAVE HER!!

My wife would murder me if I traded my cars in that often. To be fair though I've never owned a car less than 3 years before buying another, but I'm always tempted (as are most car nuts I think).

If you have the factory yellow transformer package you can not get rid of it. The car adopted you.

I ordered my car on May 11th 2010 at 5:21pm. I will pass the car down to my son. The car and my son were born exactly 3 weeks apart. Camaro 6-4-2010 , Easton 6-25-2010. Now my son was born 10 weeks premature and and a pretty tough go of things while he was in the N.I.C.U. However , he pulled through and was able to come home after spending 6 weeks in the hospital. I made damn sure he rode home from the hospital in "His" Camaro....... So on August 5th , 2010 he was cleared for takeoff and I pulled " Deuce" up to the entrance to the hospital and away we went. If this car ever leaves my possession , it will be by someone prying the keys from my cold dead hands , or I give it to "E" when he gets a little older............................................. .It's not just a car

well this is my first camaro and first car that i actually really like. my mom told me never to sell it. she said every one whos sells a car like this always wishes they had it in the end. my grandfather sold his grand national 8 years ago, and also regrets that. it would have been mine.

Some of you are now trading or selling your 5th. Let me ask you guys the same question those who still have there's will you ever let it go for any reason?And for those who had.... a "camaro" Do you Regret the fact that you have let any Gen of yours go?

My answer.... I will never let mine go, it will have to be taken by force lol

BTW...I had a 98' that I sold....regret that to this day
I plan on keeping mine until the 6th gen comes out then ile trade it in.

I know its off topic but were did you get the small electric toy camaro at?Ive been trying to buy one for my son but every were i look they only have yellow or pink!
