I traded my 2015 Dodge Charger R/T Road & Track in against my 2016 2SS. The Charger was a nice car, but I couldn't stand the open diff any longer. The Camaro is much better suited to my driving style, but that Charger could hustle when you wanted it to. I actually wanted a Challenger Scat Pak, but it wasn't to be. I'd not swap the Camaro for one now, but I'd love to have both.

The car I miss most was my 1993 Nissan 200sx s13. The UK roads ended up rotting it beyond repair, but that car was a whole lot of fun. The stock CA18DET was producing 25bhp more than it should from factory, and had no issues taking bolt-ons and an upgraded ball-bearing turbo. Running at 20psi, it was probably only putting about 250bhp down, but it was super light and it taught me everything I know about driving sideways.

The car I learned most from mechanically was my 1993 Eagle Talon TSi AWD, which was my first car when I moved to the USA in 2014. That car had fantastic potential, but I found myself working on something every weekend to keep it running as a daily and it got to be too much of a headache. I'd be tempted to get a 1g or 2g again as a second car, but I'd be strongly considering the idea of running a different engine in it.

Post pics of you got em...
All of my previous and current cars are in my signature. Definitely did not ever have a "wtf was I thinking?" moment with any of them. I do wish I never sold the 1964 VW though.

Here are some pics:











All three of my Camaros in one picture:

The Camaro is my first performance car. Always been more of a motorcycle guy, but I'm getting too old for that.

My 1SS is actually my first car. I would ride my bike everywhere , as I was trying to save up for something nice. Well worth the wait.

2017 Chevy Camaro SS 1LE

I seem to get bored easily. I've been very lucky that I've never really lost much for changing cars so quickly. I "plan" on keeping the Camaro for a while and will probably be picking up the new Civic Type-R in 2018/2019 once the initial fire dies down.

Pictured are the ones i cared most about but also had a few other beaters. I had a really nice 300 that i cant find a pic of either. Still have white truck and G8 and the Green beast is my daily.

The Trailblazer SS i miss the most. The yellow wagon was my brothers but i drove it for awhile in college.
