Explains why it's lost on me... I know 300 but I haven't watched Dragon Ball Z in years. Not since it started. Never heard of '4chan' though.

I'll put the wheels on my list of chops to do, if you'd like...

Hey, thanks Ellwynx! That's awesome!

I'm not a chop-pro at all like some of you other guys on here so I had no idea how to even start! lol (Believe me, I've got Photoshop and don't know how to work it! haha)

Dragon, that would be awesome if you wouldn't mind. I'm in no hurry, mind you, but it would be appreciated if you wanted to do it

You are awesome!

4chan.org is an image board that people post pics and random stuff on, 1 suepr long thread that is crazy.

Definitely wheels and probably a suspension drop. The prototype camaros look like they sit pretty high from the factory so gotta close up that fender gap.

That's my initial plan too. I tend to do that with most of my cars since I prefer a narrower wheel gap than most factory setups. As for other types of external mods, I can't wait to see what the aftermarket will have!

Wheels... maybe a drop (depends on what's available over here - and what won't kill the warranty (such as it may or may not be)) - exhaust almost certainly (it'll be too quiet).. um... that's about it!

That'll about do it for me too.

Nothing will kill the warranty in the US unless it specifically is the part to cause a part to break or not perform to spec. I wouldn't be surprised if several other countries have similar laws. Basically, GM can't claim a warranty violation if you install an intake and your windshield falls off, for example. They have to be related, and the new part has to cause the factory part to break.

When we find out the specifications of the audio system, I will begin ordering parts for the interior of the car. I won't install any external mods until I drive it so I know what I want.

I didnt think the new camaro was going to be introduced in europe??

willisit · 12-20-2007, 03:40 AM

The warranty over here goes three ways:

1. GM bring the Camaro to the UK (in RHD.. or more likely, like the Corvette, in LHD) and we'll get the same warranty the Corvette enjoys.
2. GM don't bring the Camaro to the UK (seems more likely at the moment) and I import one - then the warranty is moot.
3. GM do bring the Camaro to the UK but they charge $/£ conversion - ie, you pay $30k and I pay £30k (more likely I pay £40k ($80k) just like the Corvette) so I still import the thing and have to haggle for a warranty!

Either way, I probably lose. <shrugs>

When the Camaros come out, a lot of people will be buying them so I would want to do something to mine to make it stand out apart from the others. But not in a bad way, I would probably tint the windows really dark, look into a nice cal hood, and possibly look into lowering it if its too high..

Jay · 12-25-2007, 04:15 AM

Maybe just some new wheels ans suspension drop if necessary in the beginning... really want to keep that new factory look for a while when I buy the car... maybe go crazy mod's later on.

Sorry it took so long, Camarochick - Hope you like it!
