I initially got a lot of v6 comments when I first took the tips off and removed the badges. I love the exhaust note of this car with a stick. It's quiet as hell when I want it to be.
I remember seeing your car being primer black. You got it painted now or something?
I love green on Camaros now, wish I could've got a nice bright green LS1 Camaro or Mystic Teal even.

yea i sold my black z28 cuz it had to many problems trans, rearend, optispark, etc needed to be replaced or rebuilt. It came out cheaper just to buy another one w/o those problems.

The optispark just scares the hell outta me. I've heard so many horror stories and pain the *** comments about doing the work for those. It's the 2nd reason I wouldn't get an LT1 fbody.
But other than that which I'm sure it's not even as big as a problem as I feel it is, they're great engines.

Saw a nice deep blue colored early 4th Gen camaro with aftermarket taillights yesterday. Was going pretty fast down Carson, I sped up to see if anything would happen, but as I got closer I saw it was a v6. Clean car and nice Guy though. Think it was a 5 speed too.

Saw and had a quick race with an LT1 Z28 in Long Beach yesterday.
Red, black roof, looked like 20 inch chrome irocs. Paint had a lot of pretty bad chips on the bumpers and front end. Body was good condition.
And correction on the Yellow 93-97 Camaro with SS hood I spotted in lakewood, it's a convertible.

on 11/22 saw and spoke to a guy with a white 01 SS going east on Sepulveda Blvd in Torrance, I think he turned right on Vermont.
Nice guy, nice car!
He told me he's broken his axle a couple of times, and I didn't have the time to tell him he needs a 12 bolt

I'm all over long beach, downtown, lakewood, signal hill, etc all the surrounding areas and freeways pretty often. I just like to go for a drive, or take care of stuff(just got back from tustin, huntington beach, and some other areas around there.
I put a relatively small 'LB' decal in plain white on my hatch window. Near the bottom. Only other ones that have it that look like mine are my friends 97 which are the same aside from engine/tranny/frontend/wheels, and another friends 94 T/A.
So if you saw the sticker, it was probably me.
On what day was it exactly? Today?

Actually that sounds like when I was giving my friend a ride to work on his day off to pick up his check. Sticker was just put on the past few days.
Here's to really shitty pictures I took in almost complete darkness about an hour ago while I was over at my friends. You can see what the sticker looks like in back.
I really need to take some pictures in daylight.

Someone pm'd me on here when to tell me that one of the people I had a little run in with was from the camaro boys club.
Two black dudes in a Z28, lifted, looked like 20 inch wheels, black with a red lip. They were right on my ***, don't know if maybe they thought it was a v6 and they would pick on it, I took off and slowed down so they could catch up to race, and then they come flying by flipping me off while cutting across 2 lanes into the carpool and then cutting through some more lanes after they were up way ahead.
A lot of people just have no ******* sense
EDIT:
Just picked up my nephew and was coming home, at the churchs chicken at the intersection of south and cherry in long beach there was a nice 98-02 T/A. White, was on a trailer. Was far away, but could see that it had a roll cage, big slicks on it, and a pretty big black cowl hood in place of the factory hood.
Really nice, should've grabbed a picture with my phone while I was sitting at the light. Guess the owner was getting something to eat there.

I saw a maroon ls1 camaro with that viper hood that's on here. I'm guessing it's the same car. I was leaving autozone on south st in north long beach.
Also saw an LT1 white hardtop T/A, pretty quiet, nice wheels, and noticed it had a true dual setup. First time I've ever seen it moving. It's usually parked near the uhaul on south street.
