Never had much interest in a Camaro really. I had a couple of Turbo RX-7's in my younger years. Got a 350Z that I turbo'd at 32. First Viper at 34, second Viper at 38. Got tired of having amazing cars I never drove so I sold the second Viper and bought a ZL575 and I drive it every day. I turn 40 in June.

Had a '97 SS when I was 19, built my 69 Camaro when I was 19-22, built my IROC when I was 24, bought a 98 as a project but had to sell when my wife was pregnant and got laid off, and now I have my '10 2SS. Ive wanted a Gen5 since I saw the first mock drawing in Hot Rod magazine in 2004. Ill be 30 in 16 days. :(

Exactly!
Remember seeing a '67 RS when I was about 8-9 (in 1969)....Knew someday I'd have one. Of course, I fell in love with a lot of cars as a youngster. Remember driving by the Dodge/Plymouth dealerships and seeing rows of Daytona Chargers, Super Bee's and Super Birds in those cool-ass Rapid Transit colors.....Plumb Crazy, Go-Mango, Sublime Green, etc. Ahhhh, those were good times.
Came close on my 16th....got a '68 Firebird instead.
49 when the 5th gen came out........that was my time. Hopped in the '06 Goat and drove to the Chevy dealership. And just like Christine, the years have been peeling away the more I drive it.

I wanted an F-body for as long as I can remember. My dad had a 94 Z when I was 4 and I loved riding in that car. I picked up a '98 TA when I was 16. I wasn't much of a fan of the 5th gen till I went and saw it in person and test drove one. I got the 5th gen when I was 20.

I never wanted a camaro, more into vettes, mustangs. Saw the concept car in 06 (56 years old) and told family was going to buy one when they were available. I was 59 when I picked her up and drove her home.
