Camaros are stunning, high impact, visually gorgeous cars. Vandals are attracted to them because they want to spoil your image and ego.
IMO, a Camaro is for pleasure use only and should be kept safely in a garage.
Drive a tan Cruze for shopping, commute and school.

I live and commute in one of the worst areas in the country Washington Dc Central Md Northern Va area and I never once encountered some one going out of there way to blatantly vandalize property. I dont get it maybe city folk have more respect than country / suburb folk.

That vid of the kids throwing rocks at the black camaro was amazing to me cause all of the kids in my area love to look at my car more than I do. People actually go out of there way not to park next to me and I usually dont even park in the neighborhood but when I do its normally a corner spot giving me and the only car that can park next to me enough room. There are plenty of nice cars in my neighborhood and a 10 ABM ss no body cares to mess with.

I would not kill anyone over this... I just said I may be worried... If I caught someone about to do something, I would probably be yelling and run out to the car HOPING they would run off. I wouldn't just stand there and let them do it... But if I'm not around, not much that's going to stop someone.

IMO, Just cause I pull my gun on you doesn't mean I'm trying to kill you. But If I pull a gun on you cause your breaking into my car and you make a move for a weapon.... your gonna get shot plain and simple. There is a reason why some states have open carry for guns. It's cause people will murder you for your money or your car and not think twice about it

I'm talking of open carry on you and in your car. you couldn't do that in Cali cause you still had to keep the gun away from reaching distance and the ammo had to be locked up in a seperate area from the gun.

I had my car keyed, right in the heart of DC, I could see the capitol from point of origin. You may not see it, but its there.

Hell.... no!!!!! Can't be arsed to drive a car I don't want to drive!! I bought my Camaro TO use to go shopping and for commuting. And yes, I call that pleasure use because I greatly enjoy every mile of driving it!

Furthermore, I'm not worried about vandals. I don't bother anybody and I get along with everyone and don't live in the ghetto. Where I live everyone knows everybody. I feel like it would be the chance of winning the lottery or getting struck by lightning.

I live out in the country. There are some neighbor kids who don't respect me, my yard or my field filled with crop. They ride their 4-wheelers in the front of my yard I yell. In my field I yell and call the cops. It does no good. I keep my camaro in my parents garage not even on the same property because they have all seen the car and I don't want vanalism retaliation. It just plain sucks to live in fear like that.:(

And I thought the people that hold animal life in higher regard than human life were bad. This guy (liar) says he'd kill someone over scratching his car (lie). It is truly sad what humanity is coming to, but then again this is the Internet. Where everyone is the fearless, rough, tough, long arm of the law.
