1 year old early August, I absolutely love this car, best car I have ever owned and best looking Camaro ever made IMO.

1. No Regrets
2. Bought the Camaro on Feb 22, 2010 Has 7700 miles on it, no complaints.
3. Want a convertable version of the same car or a convertable Z-28

Waste of money for a new car? You're dreaming. Used cars have so much more that can (and usually do) go wrong with them, no warranty, and not nearly as sharp as the newer cars. I've owned nothing but used cars since I started driving, and never again. New or nothing.

As for my car... only problems thus far have been the tires (both rear needed to be patched). Been the smoothest ride going on 1500 miles now. Couldn't see driving anything else.

If I had the extra money (not if I needed to make a choice)... I'd get an SRT-8 Challenger. But that's it. I wouldn't buy anything but an SS and probably a Z-28. This has been the greatest car I've owned and I love it!

I looked at a 07 Vette. I bought the Camaro instead. I had a 01 Vette and after 65000 miles the car started to fall apart. Hope the camero is better. I have about 3500 miles on it now no problems and a jioy to drive. Still don't understand why you need a V8.

1) 4+ Days old, 660Km... Waist of money? Not sure, you judge.
Waiting to get it back to the deal to fix my electrical issue. (Engine idles not constant, Blutooth, USB & AUX keep disconnecting, Cruise control jerky while fixed on speed. Feels like ABS/traction control kicking in very lightly in the background, as I U-turn or round-about. etc

2) I am the one who is not aging well.

3) I would jump on Mustang GT+ if the dealer will give me hard time.

My baby is a few months shy of her 1 year Bday lol.. I'm still loving it and at 13,853 miles on her my only little complaint would be the few paint chips and wished the clear coat would have been put on a little thicker. Also I wished the tap shift was located in a better spot. It's hard to turn corners while using that feature but other wise its fun.

Over all it fits me perfectly and I enjoy driving the hell out of it.
