5th gens are special.

I am quite fond of all Camaros, but there's just something about the 5th generation that I really love (even before I owned one). Lookin' at it never gets old!

And because they don’t look “dated”, I believe that qualifies for the description of a “classic”. IMO, of course.

I totally agree. I thought the same while backing the Buick out of the garage, looking over at the camaro thinking that is one swell looking car.

Exactly why Hagerty insures our cars as "modern classics".

It's actually just the front splitter that came with the factory GFX.

I never get tired of looking back at mine in the parking lot going into the store or wherever else I'm going. Classic looks and just fun as hell to drive!

Exactly. I can’t begin to count the number of random pictures at random angles I’ve taken just admiring mine. It never gets old.

Factory GFX and good luck finding one. They’ve been discontinued for a while now and are really hard to find from GM. For that reason I about need new underwear every time I go over a speed bump or a rabbit or squirrel runs out in front of me.
