Hi everyone! Got mine last Thursday night and left for vacation on Saturday for Newport, RI and am leaving for Martha's Vineyard tomorrow. Breaking it in well with about 700 miles on it so far and all at varying speeds and driving conditions. Gotta break it in before it gets garaged for the winter. Can't believe the comments, stares, thumbs up and compliments we are getting on this car. This color is just beautiful. Gotta share a few stories with you (and I know a number of you have probably experienced some similar situations).

Parked next to a new silver 2010 Camaro at a park. 12 year old kid is snapping pictures of my car when we returned to it. I said "Do you like that car?" He says "Yes!" I said it was my car. He says "Way cool!!!" I asked him if he took pictures of the silver one with black stripes next to it and he says "No, it's not as cool as your car!" Unbelieveable!!!

Waiting for a traffic light in Newport, RI and a father with 2 young boys is walking by the car. He says to them "Look at that NICE car!" Then he says to me "Nice custom paint job!" I had to go because the light changed and didn't have time to tell him it was factory paint!!!

Check in at a hotel. Girl at front desk asks me if I like my car. Of course I answered that I did. She says it is really hot and said she would make sure she hooked us up with a room that we would be able to look out and check on our car whenever we wanted, because that is what she would want if she owned the car. I said that works for me. It sitting right outside our room window as I am typing this.

Continuing to Martha's Vineyard tomorrow and hoping to get some better shots with some nice backdrops. Hope everyone is enjoying theirs, and maybe someday we can have an IBM convention.

Hello everyone! This is my first post on this forum, so I thought this would be the perfect spot!

I purchased my IBM 2010 Camaro V6, 1LT/RS, black interior, dark tinted windows, on June 30th. My dream car! She is beautiful!! I love every minute of driving her. My husband has only driven her once! So far she's remained stock, but I have every intention of changing the exhaust system (needs a louder purr), adding the burnout tail lights, either blue or high white halo's and changing the interior trim to silver. Not sure what Oregon's laws are about colored lights for the halo's though (I got pulled over for having a lighted license plate frame a few years ago).

Everywhere I go I have people staring, pointing, or commenting on her. If my window is down people shout compliments. "Beautiful car!" "Nice!" "You have a beautiful car, lady!" It's almost weird sometimes!! The teen boys are the loudest and the most amazed.

I have a lot of questions so I'll see ya'll in the other threads.

Here's my girl!

Can you confirm if you tinted the front, are there any laws requiring you to leave the front untinted? Sorry if these questions seem obvious, but I haven't checked into any of this before.

Nope, the front is not tinted at all. Just the sides and the rear.

Very nice. How did you get the plates so fast? Have had mine for about a month and still waiting for my plates out here in Cali.

Is that the gray or beige interior?

MARTIN · 09-13-2010, 05:52 AM

It's the Beige/Black Interior... I transfered my plates from our 30th Anv TA.....(Sold)

Finally brought home my 2011 IBM/2LT on Saturday. I am loving this car, it is an amazing drive. The color looks terrific in all types of light. I decided to bring it by my parents house yesterday and surprise them, and they were stunned by how great this car looks. I wound up in the passenger seat, because my dad was just itching to drive it. He had a great
time
