I've seen 3 others on here that are from down here in the Mobile area. One of them is only here once a month. I've done work on a few members cars but there just isn't a lot of members here. I have placed probably 10 or so camaro5 cards on windshields.

Problem is that the main get together time is usually Saturday mornings. I work Tuesday thru Saturday. I rarely can even make it to car shows. I'll catch a cruise in every once in a while. I park in general parking though.

Funny how those stereotypes work huh...

There are a few people locally here that have them but they are mostly people who seem to have missed the enthusiast wagon.

yeah, i basically started the bama section for the 8th gen civics. but i think it was a bit easier since civics are half the price so there are more people, just give it time it will pick up!

my cai was like 3 inches off the ground, went through a small puddle during a downpour and it locked the motor up and i was stupid and do the right procedures to keep it going. later that night on the way to work right in front of my house i heard it, motor was still pulling but i knew something was wrong immediately so i turned it off but it was too late. luckily insurance paid for the whole thing i ended up making money since me and my dad put the new motor in lol

what gets me is i see people posting all the time from here but its like they avoid this section

I've noticed that too. Well maybe when u get yours u can change that. I've thought about starting a new forum for bham area

[Vindicated Jew]

yea, hopefully ill get this promotion in a week or so, then i can do some serious saving. im pretty set on a 2013. its the first one with a back up camera isnt it?

I would tell you check out HuntsvillecarScene.com ton of stuff going on all the time plus we have the Rocket City Camaro club and we are growing stronger by the day you can find us on FB at https://www.facebook.com/?ref=tn_tnm...etcitycamaros/ we are always willing to pull in new people....

[SSmokinHot!]

No my 2012 has a back up camara. I would say get the 2013 for the touch screen radio. I heard the is a big car show everyday first Sat of the month at the Colonial Promenade in alabaster starts around 4:30. I plan on checking it out today. Hope I see more fellow camaro owners!!

[Vindicated Jew]

My CAI is not much higher. Goes down behind the fog lights.

id be careful then. there were a few times where the car went into limp mode and wouldnt rev past 3k for awhile

I'm quite conscious of it. I start freaking out at puddles on the interstate.

[Vindicated Jew]

lol yeah i dont now, i have k&n typhoon short ram

so after doing more research, ive decided on getting the 1LE so far. unless the z28 when it comes out looks better.

im glad i got on the forums early, i didnt get on the civic forum until after i bought my car, would have probably gotten a different car, but i dont regret buying my car so im happy.

And you can power it up later if you want.

But not getting the MR is a big bummer.

I might look in to a RPO car from Rogers. It will have a better suspension that the 1LE.
