Hey all. So, you can tell by my join date I've been on here for a little bit but never bothered posting. Mostly been using the forum for the information, it's been great by the way.

Got the car cleaned up last night and was out this morning as the sun came up in Kansas City and figured why not take a few quick pictures and post something for once.

The story on the car is that I had originally been shopping for a C6 a couple of years ago and finally found the exact one I had been searching for. So I hop my happy ass in the car and drive out to the dealer near Seattle (was out west at the time). When I get there they had just sold my perfect Corvette and honestly I was feeling pretty disappointed. In an effort to make a comission the salesman tells me they have a pretty nice Camaro with 38,000 miles and a six speed.

I wasn't too keen on the idea but figured I might as well look at it since I was there anyways.

When I saw it I was pretty impressed with how clean it was, and once I took it out for a drive and found out that they wanted much less then what I was looking to spend, I took it.

It's still not where I want it to be because even though it is quick I'm not afraid of it. I think a blower should fix that. Once I get some F.I. I plan to hit all the major events next year like Rally North America, Camaro Fest, LS Fest etc.

Anyways, that's that. Thanks for reading my rambles and if anyone lives near KC I recommend you head out to the MCI airport next week for the annual show.

Mods in sig. If you don't like the wheels...meh. They're only wheels guys/gals. I love 'em.

Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5/6. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wives', husbands, girlfriends and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

I dont think the wheels look that bad with the red.

Welcome, and nice ride. I think the wheels look pretty sweet. I've been toying with the idea of something similar on my 45th.
