These Dang cars are getting too popular

I cannot believe all of the camaro's that I saw today.Went about 45 miles each way to have Easter dinner with the family.I saw (1) black convertible (3) red's and (1) orange.That is the most that I have seen on the road in my short travels on this route since they first came out.Two of the reds were two blocks apart.One was in the garage with the garage door open and the other was parked in front of the garage.I would just hate it if one of my neighbors purchased one the same color as mine.That would SUCK.Good to see them selling so well but also kind of like the rarity of not many in my immediate community.At least for the time being.All were clean and looked great except for the black vert which was muddy and really did not stand out. :(Shame shame !

There was one day I went to pick my brother up from school and I saw about 5 5th gens. I was kind of upset.

Yep...Saw several, 4 or 5, on the way home today from the family Easter get-together. And I'm seeing more to/from work each day too.

I remember me and my brother went out to try out the new hurst shifter, i honestly saw about 7 camaros on one street. It was crazy. Passed one out of a neighborhood, 2 in a parking lot, 1 at an intersection and more parked at houses. I was happy. Id rather see more camaros than less camaros.

i just wish more owners around here acknowledged eachother. I always flash lights and give thumbs up. Rarely a return, almost in a stuck up fashion.

Passed a guy in a CGM RS and honked and gave him a wave, he just starred at me like WTF.

They are becoming very common place. Great for GM.......not as fun for owners. But very good for aftermarket companies......as we struggle to make our Camaro's unique.

Another positive note. The bigger the market the cheaper, more unique, more available, more interesting those aftermarket parts also get.

Start Modding!!!

I saw an SS by me today but mostly LT's around here.

I drove next to a SGM the other day and messed around a bit revving it up. We gave each other thumbs up and he liked my license plate "CAMARO S" I approached my street and needed to turn but decided to keep following him and have some fun.

wow, that's weird, around here all different year Camaro owners wave or give thumbs up everytime, and most of the muscle cars also, the only ones who don't ever wave or give thumbs up are the mustang owners, but that does not bother me.
