I looked at a V6 5th Gen Camaro last week. I couldn't even see the engine because of all of the plastic covering it...

Ya, and what seems to be the motor oil fill cap, is just a screw to hold the plastic down. The real Cap is under all that

it's a good thing you threw out one of the egg rolls, that weight saving might have been the deciding factor for the race.

Makes the engine bay look nice with flat panels covering all the messy wires.

I believe they do it only to confuse and discourage owners from working on their cars. And bring in more $ to their service dept

I don't think it looks nice. This is just like what I saw. This isn't what you should see when you open the hood.

actually we were all quite surprised at how quick it was, turn off the TC and put in manual shift mode and it zips pretty good.


and to everybody else, who the **** cares what the engine looks like, it's a V6 rental car... the thing is a G35 eating MACHINE, and it had some good bumps from the factory stereo.

it's a drive thru monster too, I was very impressed at how well it handled that left turn and stopped on a dime at window #2. And something about how the side windows are shaped, i think it helps noise trajectory, as I didn't have to scream how many egg rolls i wanted, as i normally would in any other car.

To sum it all up... if you like jack in the box late at night, I would highly recommend the 2010 V6 camaro with the Budget package. Preferrably black.

PS. jack in the box currently has a deal worth writing home to mom about: cheeseburger, Small fry, taco, and small drink for ONE easy payment of $2.99.
