I did it! Finally got my dream car! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hello everyone. My name is Mackenzie and I have been here at the forum for a few months browsing around getting ideas and such. Once I purchased my new home for my family (wife and 16mo daughter) money was getting a little lower than I had imagined. Shortly after moving my wife found a great job paying good money so our money problems were solved.

Today, I went out looking at cars, not intending to buy anything just getting some ideas and one dealership gave me an offer I couldn't turn down (payment wise). So here I am the new proud owner of a 2011 1LT/RS Camaro.

I can't stop smiling about this car, it's amazing. It was used and has a few blemishes on it, but the dealership said they were going to fix all of them. It has a little over 13k miles on it and drives like it's brand new. Gotta love it.. Here is a picture from tonight at Wal-mart.

Hope to put orange stripes on it next year, don't think anyone around here has that setup.

Sorry for the blurriness. iPhone was all I had.

Another picture I forgot I had taken. My wife and my dealer.

Congrats man! Sweet car. Will be even sweeter with the orange stripes.

Check your area for a sign shop that does truck lettering and wraps. I just went to one near me and had stripes and overlays on the camaro lettering put on for $135.
