You know you're a Camaro enthusiast to the core if.... - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

*Mr. Wyndham* · 02-05-2008, 01:00 PM

I want to lighten the mood a little bit around here. So I thought this might be a good idea to do.
Throw some things up that exclusively Camaro enthusiasts do/think. (that means you, too!)

I'll start it off.

You know your a Camaro enthusiast if....

Somebody references the "F-word"; your first thought is 'F-body'.

nari_aizawa · 02-05-2008, 01:21 PM

...you talk to complete strangers about how much you love the Camaro.
...you wave to people who drive a Camaro, even if you don't know them.
...you see a totally inanimate object (which has nothing to do with anything) and say, "Hey, that looks like the new Camaro." - true story

HooliganZ · 02-05-2008, 01:25 PM

You spend every waking moment on this site waiting for that next set of spy pics to be released!

SoFlaZ · 02-05-2008, 01:33 PM

...all of your friends think you should stop saying a Camaro will beat that car.

...your girlfriend thinks that you might like Camaro's more than her.

Urthman · 02-05-2008, 01:41 PM

...you own more Camaro clothing and/or accessories than anything else.
...all of your diecast cars, models and RC cars are Camaros.
...you see a Mustang on the road and laugh just a little inside.
...you've been saving your pennies waiting for 2009.

You have sat on this board on a Thursday writing a post along the lines of "11:00 PM GMT and still no Chevy Nation update..."

"You know you're a Camaro enthusiast if".....

- You walk out to the garage just to look at your Camaro and end up standing there with a smile on your face.

- You take it personally whenever the "new" Camaro is criticized, so much so that you write to a car magazine to straighten the journalist out.

- You send in a picture of your Camaro, along with a brief explanation of your love for the Camaro to a Chevrolet enthusiast magazine, and the editor refers to you as a "Camaro fanatic" in the story.

- You refer to your Camaro not as a car, but a "friend".

- Your garage is "Camaro themed".

- If after 9 yrs. of owning your Camaro, you still can't wait for that weekend drive, just you and your Camaro.

- You put Scott, aka. The Fbodfather, right up there with Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny!

You know you're a Camaro enthusiast to the core if....

...you've talked enough about Camaros with everyone you know so much, that they knew you'd be getting a 5th Gen and what color it would be before you told them so.

...your wife/girlfriend understands who you're talking about when you reference "the San Antonio police officer", "the guy with a blown 928", "the Photoshop Master", "fbodfather", etc in normal conversations.

(for all the ladies, but one specific one here)
...when you don't get offended at being called a "Camaro Chick"

*DGthe3* · 02-05-2008, 04:00 PM

. . . everything on your computer is Camaro themed -deskto picp, screensaver, messenger pic

. . . you just take a little pause every time you see a new camaro picture

. . . someone says 'F-word' and you think Ford

The_Stache · 02-05-2008, 06:05 PM

.. you drive home imagining your behind the dual pod gauge cluster with everyone eyeing your new ride.

.. your garage is getting a make over in preparation for the new family member.

.. your wife knows that one will be baught as soon as your current vehicle is paid off and there is nothing she can do to change your mind.

.. your wife is sick of hearing about 'that car'.

*all true in my case *

camarocrazy28 · 02-05-2008, 06:28 PM

...if you must look at the toy section of every store you go to for new die-cast Camaros.

...if you must look on e-bay every day for Camaro parts or die-cast Camaros.

...if you have more than one book specifically about Camaros.

...if you have built a model of every generation of Camaro, including the fifth.
