Nice! Yeah I don't think he put his foot in it on the way home just to see how well it would do. He said he smoked a Nissan GTR in town so he was psyched about that.

New Camaro Owner

Hey everyone,

I'm a new Camaro owner & it's actually my first one EVER. As my my user name sais, I have owned Mustangs for many years. I actually had a 2011 Mustang 5.0 on order & just wanted to test drive the Camaro to see what it was all about. I honestly didn't expect love as much as I did & took it home with me tonight. It's 1SS/RS, RJT, M6. I got rid of my 2008 Bullitt for this thing & the Camaro handles so much better & just pulls so much harder. I work on Kirtland AFB & am down for meets.

Thanks,
Tim G.

Just checking in here too. Judging from some of those pics, most of you guys look like you're on the WEST SIDE.

Welcome aboard!

There are a few of us from Rio Rancho, but rest assured, the majority are still in the City.

Post up some pics of the rigs fellas!

Congrats again!,

To visit his hip doc, huh? Sheesh he just about parked out in Farmington to see him then! Ha, ha. It was as far from the hospital as you could park. Good way to exercise that hip!

He loves the maggie and so do I! I can't explain it but the car, while more powerful, drives better. Maybe its the transfer of weight? I think it was well worth the investment. You can't put a price on adrenaline and smiles
Welcome to the new members! .....Yep he is protective of the car so I can see why he parked way out there

Weather has been cooperative......wheels are turning.

Agreed, need a C5 meet and greet. Way too many folks popped up over the Winter with new wheels.

Be cool to put faces to cars.
