14,000 miles on my Camaro (not enough!)...and loving her still after 4 years (4 years in August 2013). She still gets attention and turns heads on the road, and I still can't help myself sometimes and do a double take when I park and walk away.

Not just any car is capable of doing this. GM you hit home run on the design of this car in so many ways. There are improvements in other areas we'd like to see, but the design is killer. If the 6th gen can have this much of a home run in looks it will be a freaking miracle in my opinion.

I drive the piss out of my car when I'm home. But the thing is out of the last 4 years, I've spent a great deal of that time in Iraq and Afghanistan. So the car ended up sitting around parked for months at a time. Otherwise my mileage would probably much higher.

Never thought I'd say I'm bored with 500rwhp.....but I kind of am! Lol. Hopefully will be remedying that in the next few months!

And Arod, don't think I'll be making it back to Sandog anytime soon unfortunately. I sure do miss it though.

Just hit 60,000 km on my Camaro this past weekend while on a ride with our club...most amazing car I've ever owned.

Of course one way or another we all pay for it somehow, but things like monochrome HUD turns to color, really, it could have been color from day one, they have the technology.

Okay, otherwise life is grand.

I feel a little jealous of the newer interiors, yes, lol. Mine's a 2010 as well and we just celebrated our four year anniversary in October

Nope, it's natural progression to keep improving year over year. It keeps the sales levels up.

I'd kinda like to have the HUD and rearview camera - that's about it. No biggie! Also, I don't like the 2014 rear at all.

I've has mine for 6 weeks and I love every minute I spend with her, sometimes I go into the garage and just stare at her, put 140 miles on her and 90 of them were the drive home from the dealership. Thanks GM

Kleeeb · 11-18-2013, 06:45 PM

My 1 week anniversary with my 2014 1LT/RS is tomorrow! Shes running strong, with only 350 miles on her!

P.S. I love the MyLink and the backup camera. (sunroof is a nice touch to.)

If you only work 3 miles from your house, it's not hard.
