About on par with a New Edge or 4G Eclipse GT, not too shabby.

Just thought I stop in and say. I looked at the new Camaro in person today. My car will be ordered this week. I should have it by the end of the year. Inferno orange with black hockey stripes, 2SS/ RS with the inferno orange interior accents. Every option except I will keep the standard RS wheels. I like them and the are 20's which I think is huge but the optional ones are 21's. BTW those that think the Challenger is big the Camaro is damn near the same size. I was shocked at the size of it. It was next to a Vette and Jebus its huge but Damn does it look nice.

They had all three models at Barrett Jackson last week and you could sit em. I really like them, If they went low 11's and were Fords I might buy one. Good luck with yours they really are nice in person the pics don't do them justice.

What's 4/20?

First off the gto got a mild cam. The new idle is sex and the extra hp/tq never hurts.

I'm movin back to Philly for good and going back to work finally. So I decided I'm gonna do my part to kickstart the economy and get a credit card...and then the g8's gettin a nice setup. Not sure if I'm going boost or h/c nitrous yet but low 11s is gonna be the goal. Then it's goin on a diet for high 10s.

Default My new found hate

WTF is with people in this section acting like hall monitors. You're not moderators, stop suggesting threads should get closed, moved, etc. You know how annoying it is to have people trying to help but only cause drama?

And second, why when a new thread opens up one of the first 5-10 comments is "just wait till the (insert non GM carmaker) guys get here, they're gonna call bs/flip out/start a riot/kill people...". Don't start **** when there ain't no ****.

I don't like anything with a fartpipe
I don't like neons (even the turbo kind)
I don't like 20-somethings who think a stock fbody/stangGT/350Z is a really fast car
... did your mommy buy that for you? (I know it doesn't apply to all)
I hate seeing large groups on sport bikes doing nothing at all ... learn a trick already
I really hate 22s on anything

LMAO ... that was kinda fun ... in an odd way
