Default 2010 ss & 2009 gt500

Was at the local cruise spot a couple evenings back when this pulled in beside me. First one in our area and I believe the owner has painted some of the body kit pieces, but not sure on that one. Anyway, thought it was a cool pic of what are probably a couple of end of an era cars, with the way things are going these days.

I will add I wasn't too taken with the SS when first saw it in press pics, but it really does look a lot better in the flesh. Just MHO...

Looks Great, that is the ground efx package painted. You can get the G-FX package through the dealer, though its installed black.

It is only in black this guy must have had it painted. Personally I think it looks better in black... With black wheels that would look good.

If there is one thing i have noticed about the new camaro.. It is that it's never alone. There is always somebody drooling over the car or simply standing close to it looking in awe.. Funny to see these pics taken from the real world where people follow it as was it Jesus. Beautifull car.

btw, where is that mustang? From the looks of the peoples faces it isn't present
