As everyone has said great job. What I liked the most is you telling you level of driving exp. I'm sure most of the buyers of this car are not race car drivers. You really showed what this car will be like for the avg. driver. I just love the black on black and so glad I ordered it, but would be happy with whatever color I would have ordered.
Thanks again for the awesome story

That review was better than any of the 10+ reviews I've read from professional journalists. Well done. The level of detail you gave was extraordinary. I can't believe (well, maybe I can) that all the magazine writers skipped over so much of it.

I only wish I could afford one.

WOW!

Dragoneye,

Thank you for that AWESOME review! I've always been a fan of muscle cars, and I grew up with more of a Ford Influence(No hate) but have been beyond in love with the Gen5 Camaro as soon as I saw the first drawings and have totally jumped in with both feet into the Dark Side . Not to mention, the passion and love that the Camaro Team and this community have is truly moving and confidence inspiring. The ZL1 is a BEAST of a car, but more so, it is an incredible FULL car, not bits and pieces from the bin. I hope to save up and purchase a ZL1 in a year or two's time God willing. So congratulations to all who are getting theirs! I will be hanging on your every word and picture .

On a side note, what is it you and FBodFather do to gain such access? And uh, how can I join team Camaro? :P geez.
