Some of you treat camaros like if they are bugattis or ferraris.... Not driving it in the rain? Jesus it's an affordable $30k car.. not a collectors edition million dollar car.

Let's stop acting like we are better than everyone please. As long as it's American, hell yeah.
You make a fair point

And I think it important to note that no "official" warnings were given. But this forum is pretty tolerant of other car owners. However, with that tolerance comes an insane amount of members that are only here to remind us the camaro isn't perfect and their car of choice is better here or there


Sometimes people forget just how long we've waited for a new camaro. And for something to challenge the gt500. Do we have our fair share of fanboys? Certainly. But as this is a camaro board we also expect that everyone here has some positive feeling for the camaro and should be tolerant of those of us that are still reeling in the cars success and what the future holds.

It's not the money man, it's the passion we have for Camaro's. Mine is off the charts. It's in my blood. This car is the pinnacle for me. I don't think I'm better than anyone. I just am a very passionate Camaro owner.

And honestly, if I wanted to visit a modern muscle car board I'd look for one. Instead, I found C5, a board dedicated to the new Camaro.
He was here when he had the challenger, and anything stated about the other two he was jumping in and defending them. So take the criticism and learn from it. All 3 have their issues.

Excellent point and I for one am appreciative of such a forums. I've been on my fair share of forums run by fanboys and it gets old fast!

Mine is in my blood too, trust me. I have one of seven in the entire country! I know how it is, I just don't see how some people refuse to take it out in the rain or get it a little dirty... At the end of the day it is to be driven.

Maybe I think differently since it is my DD (well I have a beater but I make myself DD my camaro cuz it's so awesome lol!).
