Default 6 pack of 2010's

Forgot I had an account on here, figured I'd copy/paste a post I made on another forum a couple weeks back....



Was heading to Meijer to pick up some groceries and I saw a bunch of cars crammed into the gas station. At first glance I thought it was a bunch of the new Challengers but then I recognized what they were.... new Camaros!

So I whipped the lil Honda over there to snap some pics for you guys!

They looked very good in person, didn't talk to any of the guys though because I was in awe

They were in a group of about 8 or 9 cars, 6 of them were Camaros one of which was red that I didn't get a pic of. There was also a G37 (I think) and some sort of new 4 door Chevy (red car in front of black Camaro at the pump) that I've never seen before.

This was at around 3:40 and if they were coming from Michigan (which I suppose from the plates) I'd say they are on their way towards Indy on I-70

As I pulled up and whipped out my phone I heard one guy say to the other... "weren't you just talking about this!"

So the mystical unicorn made from unobtainum is seen. I must say they do look good. Now if they will get it here and quit dragging their feet.

I would actually consider selling my 1996 Impala SS for that one, I've been waiting for them to finally start bringing all of the Holden vehicles over.

As for the Camaro, I'd still like to see one in person (not the auto show version) before I make a judgment call one way or the other. However, the more pictures I see, the better that car looks. Nice shots there...
