am I the only one seeing a pattern? If this trend continues the next one will be when I turn 55 and it will be the 50th Anniversary edition.

12 and 40

the IROC-Z's was the model that really cemented my interest, though I always loved the 69

When I was in the market for a Christmas gift to myself the Camaro was on the top of my list. Needless to say, the list wasn't too long

Wanted the 5th gen when the 4th gen stopped production in August of 2002. When the concept appeared around 2005-2006, then I knew I had to have one eventually. I waited until the end of 2010 and purchased one in December.

Oh, I'm 29.

When I was five years old, one of the neighbors had a brand new 1986 Camaro, white with black stripes. He was behind us at a stop light one day, and I looked out the back window and waved at him. I asked my dad what kind of car that was, because I thought it was SOOO cool looking. He told me it was a Camaro. Wanted one ever since, but could never make it work out back when I came of driving age because I was saving for college. When I finished college and went to buy a 4th gen, the dealer apologized and told me they had been discontinued over a year before that.

So, when the 5th gens came out, I knew it was time. Got my 2011 LS at age 29. I'm almost 31 now, and I still grin ear to ear every time I get behind the wheel to go somewhere.

Not what I thought we were talking about.
I was 16 when I got my 3rd gen, 22 I got a 4th gen firebird, 26 an 08 Silverado, and 29 I finally got one of my dream cars the 5th gen and wanted it since I first seen the concept.
