...it was pulled over on the interstate and the driver was getting a ticket written by a state trooper. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />

I followed a silver SS down the street for a mile or 2 the other day. Looked pretty nice.
I also saw a few of them at SEMA last year.
I like them!

I saw a GTR today. Way cooler.
I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.

Yeah, i saw a new Camaro on the way to Stockton today too. Looks nice. But then again, I was driving my Nogaro Blue B5 S4 & IMHO, I like mine just as much. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" />

I saw a GTR today. Way cooler. Cooler if you like paying 40k more for a car that has a transmission made of glass that's not under warranty if you use it like it was intended. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

GTr is a nice car..however A nissan corp guy I was talking to said it has a black box to know how you handle it, adjusts its maintenance intervals.. First brake job costs $6k at the dealership..
Ah well.

I saw one at the autoshow and I just don't get it. It looked WAY bigger than the original and the lines just didn't do anything for me. Seriously...one of the ugliest cars I've ever seen. On the other hand, the Dodge Challenger and Ford Mustangs seem far better done in terms of looks. Of course, you can't see jack out of the Challenger. Some of the worst blind spots in history. I haven't sat in a mustang. And I'm not bias against any domestic manufacture...I think they all suck the same. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I swear there has been a black one tooling around here since fall. My guess is it will be in C&D's long term test article about the Camaro when it first comes out. They seem to like this area for the Blue Ridge Parkway and other decent photo ops. They had a 'mini van shoot out <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />' a few years back, and I've seen more than a handful of cars driving towards the Parkway wearing the anti-spy bras and covers before.

New Camaro. LS model, base, V-6, 304 HP, 6-speed manual. About $23K before tax, title, license. 0-60 in 5.9, 1/4 mile 14.5 @ 99. .87g on 300' skidpad. IRS, whereas Mustang is solid rear axle. 29 mpg highway.
Everything I have read about this car says it is as good a car as the new Star Trek is a movie. Discuss.
Let's just say I'm thinking about one. Make it black, grey interior. With carpeted floor mats as the only option. Probably more fun than my Scion xB.
