yeah, I feel the same. I'd be in for Hot August Nights.

Maybe the micro-breweries are too small to see?

Did any of you still have spare stock rims around? Man who ever had this car before really curbed these rims....They are OK ... looks like they were grinded down....but one of them is almost half the rim!

My car had the same problem when I bought it. Makes you wonder how they ever get that bad. I just kept watching Craigslist and ended up buying some 45th anniversary rims for $300 in like new condition. I then sold my terribly curbed midnight silver rims on Craigslist to some guys that were going to be putting them on a Silverado. Still managed to sell those badly curbed rims for $300.

I guess I was really careful...I had my 2011 for about a year, and about 8000 miles without a ding or curb rash....I did put the car through a touchless wash with the DRs on it and the automatic pull system scratched the faux vet rims because they were so tight...even though they said it would be fine...then shrugged when they were scratched. But all in all im still happy to be back in one...miss my mods though

Post up pics of your car! I meant to look for it in the parking lot last week but forgot.
Sucks to hear about your wheels. The previous owner probably drove a transportation appliance like an Accord or Sonata. They weren't used to the low seating position and less visibility of the Camaro. The Camaro isn't for every driver because it requires you to pay more attention while driving, especially in tight parking lots. This is one of the things that I really like about the Camaro.
