IMPULSE!!!! I knew just a bit about the 5th Gen then. I was headed into town when I saw it and when I headed out of town I bought it, 1k under sticker! 34 and change out the door. Now all I hear is - pick me up in the Camaro dad, dad can you pick me up in the Camaro, please pick me up in the Camaro dad, can we go in the Camaro, please please please! I say - that's okay with me! And why not, I love my Cam - errrr daughter.

Since I waited 7 years for the Camaro to come back, it was definitely not an impulse buy! But, I didnt know EXACTLY what I was getting. All I had was an order sheet and some pics........until CamaroScotty brought it around from the back!!!! But, I just knew I would love it!!!!

I saw a SIM V6 in the showroom, told the dealer I wanted that in a 2SS/ls3/blk int and went back to work in kuwait. I haven't actually seen or driven mine yet but I am tickled to death that I got it in 16 weeks just as the dealer predicted.

Impulse buying is buying and then realizing that you didn't need or want the item you bought. Most of us have been comitted to buying this car for years and were just waiting on production to start- that's deliberate buying, hahaha!

Never saw one, never sat in one, never drove one, just knew that I had to have one!! My wife was shocked to say the least. Probably should have made sure first. Oh well, better to ask for forgiveness than permission. This will be my first "muscle" car and can't wait!!!!

I ordered mine sight unseen, nothing to go by except pictures on the internet. Waited 1 month to get it and I'm just thrilled with it; love the color, the interior, the way it drives....!!!

I have NO regrets, love my car, wouldn't trade it for the world, not to say if opportunity knocks, I wouldn't ADD to it

Ditto... I ordered mine with nothing more to go on than the internet pix. No regrets - I love her!
