If it wasn't wet outside I could take another video where I'm not such a passive shifter.

I didn't even notice it was wet out to be honest, totally overlooked the windshield wipers I now see watching it a second time. Epic fail on my part lol

When I pulled into the dealership at 1:17 I noticed the driveway inclined then dropped off. I thought "**** this is going to hurt" you can hear at 1:18 why.

One of the things I like, and that most people will think I'm crazy for, about my Camaro is its on stock springs and some !weight so it sits like a 4x4 and I never scrape on anything. New England roads suck for lowered cars, I have no idea how the hell the civic kids drive their cars slammed to the ground around here....

Considering the base model is going to haul decent *** and make over 30mpg highway... I'm happy with it. To me, the weirdest look of it isn't the taillights, its the proportions of how low the front \ hood section looks, and how tall and wide the rear looks.

damn that's low! my stock z28, i can fit like 3 fingers between the tire and wheel well.

side note. since my z28 has the rs appearance package, does it have a slightly different suspension when compared to a regular z28?

IMO my thread about my race with a Viper was plenty worthy. I even posted dyno sheets to show what kind of power my car makes with the boost level that I was running during that race.
