Camaro Greatness

Have any of you evr been stopped by someone for them to tell you how great your car is? I was at the gas station the other day and this guy pulls up and starts talking about my car. Asking me if i wanted to sell it, cuz he used to have back in his day and wishes he still had it. My brother thinks my car is the best in the world. I was comparing my car to others that i know would beat it in its current state(Supra, 300zx, 3000GT), but he still thinks my car is a beast. Just makes me greatly appreciate the camaro even more. Damn, i love camaros, why did it have to get canceled...(camaro, are you gonna leave is for ever? please come back soon :sadwavey:)

My friend has an 87 RS that looks identical to yours. I think it's awesome, even for a 5.0 automatic. I'd definately choose a Camaro over any of those imports.

I have been pulled over before just to be told I have a kick ass car...


But, its not camaro.... :uhoh:

ROFL :lol2: :lol: :loser: JP

People have come over to me when I am getting gas, just the normal stuff. What year, what motor, what wheels etc

Was the cop reminiscing about when he was four years old in his grandpa's Buick going to the candy store?? :lol2:

I always have people trying to BUY my car...Then i tell them no and it's like story time about their younger days when they used to have a camaro etc..etc...

What all do you have done because it'd take alot for a 3rd gen to beat a TT supra or a TT300 or a VR4 3000...

he said that THOSE cars would beat HIM

Yeah those cars would rape me, its just my brother thinks my car is invincible. He thinks camaros are the beastlyest looking cars ever. I can agree with him on that one though. She does look mean and beautiful at the sametime.

Sounds like your parents raise children well lol

Yeah you can say that. My littlle sister wants me to give her my 84 maro when he turns 16. My pops and his father drag raced chevys all there life(not anymore though, gramps passed and pops just fixes cars now), but i guess they did some good raising though.

I had a guy see my car and come over to offer me a job. Apparently I looked like the type of person who wants to make the easy money. Unfortunately it was one of those pyramid schemes, so I told him to get bent.

Ah i see, i didn't read it well enough i guess. I was kinda rushing to post something in the McLaren F1 board before i had to run up to school for class (final today). I to enjoy the comments and people's faces as i drive my car by...Part of the reason i love my camaro so much.

I saw a Buick GN for the first time(in person) at a big swap meet in St. Louis this past weekend... No, he wasn't selling it though, he drove it there, and I saw it in the lot, and then him and the car at the gas station afterwards. I really wanted him to open it up, but he never did.

I use to get out of tickets all the time in my Vette, they would be like nice car. Now take it easy. Doesn't work in the Z3 or Formula though.

Ahhh, camaros. i used to think that a car was a car.That was until i got that lovely piece of machinery.It wasnt even really a nice car. But it was a camaro. I never really knew how great it was until i had to sell it. An intrepid just isnt the same.
I dont know what it was about it that i liked so much. I think my favorite thing was how i had to lift myself up to see over the hood. It was great.

Well thats my little piece of poetry.:)

Eh, I love my camaro, I remember a cop pulled me over and threatened to have my car towed, but he was like "well it's a pretty nice car you have there" and let me go, I was like "Thanks, god". I agree with the Camaro looking mean and beautiful at the same time, especially from the front, like its about to charge at you, but I only think like that about the 3rd gens and 1st. People always come up to me though, like one time I was sitting in my car, waiting for my friend and some random guy came out of the store and began talking to me about my car. Lol

lol i know sooo many ppl just come out of now where and talk u about how sweet camaros are. at work some guy offered me to buy it from me but i said no dice i just gotter and want to keep it for a while, at the gas station at school at the mall there everywhere i was just cruising down the street and this guy was way back and just speeds way up to catch up with me and his hanging out the window yelling IM DOWN WITH THE I-ROC'S lol then spend like how many blocks just talking to this guy, camaros are definely head turns and girl getters t-tops down chicks love that i know from experience :iceslolan

I only have a automatic V6 and you can definately hear and know the difference between a 6 and an 8 and mine is pretty new but still im suprised to find that I get compliments every now and then about my car. I was pulling out of this men's warehouse (needed a shirt and tie for an interview) and I had my windows down and this guy walks by and says "Hey, nice car, whats it got in it?" and this is where im only confused... see the truth is I have a V6, but I know he wants to hear V8...

Another time I was installing my K&N filter real quick at this auto store and this guy was doing some maintainence work on his taurus and he said it was a nice car and to not buy a ford, I then said "F.O.R.D., Fix Or Repair Daily"

But the one Camaro that REALLY gets compliments EVERYWHERE (and I mean everywhere) is my dad's 67 RS/SS Indy Pace Car, whenever he pulls that out of the garage there is always some guy just staring at it or walking up and making a comment.

One thing I do hate, people who talk their cars up like it's the shit... I mean there is a thing called modesty and the whole "sleeper" thing is cool, I mean if you are talking to someone is willing to race you and you tell them all your mods then thats no different than telling someone what kind of hand you got while playing poker.
But this kid I know, just a little runt that thinks he is so tough, he was acting all retarded and offered to race me for my "pink slip" (which in washington, its not pink), I called him a retard and told him he gave the camaro a bad name... I also mentioned that his car sucked (even though its an 85 with 350) and that he should take it and get his ass outta here before a trailer park springs up.... but thats my huge post ofr the day

hey man i got an 85 with a 355 its no trailor park style

Yeah, I cant wait to get my Ls1 in mine and change up the badges to z28. The reason im doing that is because people always go, V8 right? Z28? and im like no...v6...rs... but then when I DO get a v8, then im going to be like "You know it, hell yeah its a Z28" and unlike Xeno, its gunna have power behind the badge not just a look.

no dude keep it rs then ppl will be like ooo well i ll just smoke this little rs and then u beat them and there like WHATTTTTT andu can just laugh ur ass off at them

Oh, I have nothing against the 3rd gens, just the little shits who this they are just sooo cool lol

I wouldn't badge it for two reasons....

1. It isn't actually a Z-28. It may make the power, but the VIN doesn't reflect Z-28.
2. Sleeper. Pull up next to someone that knows Camaros, and they think you are a V6. SEE YA!!!

That was the exact reason I removed the badges on my Formula but now that bought a ram air hood. I guess that all goes to hell. Oh well I will still blow there doors off most likely :iceslolan

Yeah, i've thought about keeping the badges on for the sleeper, but alot of people dont know their Maro's (Well the ones I know) and if they see Z28, they think Power, but Im still not sure and in the process of deciding, really.

Lol so I just have a slow z28 yall can bite me :D

I get complimented on my bright ass orange maro daily. O_o

You just might be the dumbest person I have ever come across, and that's saying a LOT.

im not gonna knock on Xeno at this point.. but im gonna say that i still dont like the Z28 badges.

*on topic: shortly after i got my camaro, my dad won a 2002 Mustang GT Conv. in a giveaway from a local gas station chain (WESCO). He and my grandpa (86 IROC) and I used to go cruisin all the time down the strip and by the beach with our cars, even though my car was a v6, i'd get a ton of attention. I dont spend much time down there now obviously because of working and everything else i have.. not to mention my dad had to sell his car.. but it was great for that short time, 3 generations of the Kieft family with 2 of the best american cars ever made. I still get attention and compliments from people occasionally, but nothing compared to when i was rollin with the big dogs. :lol:

=P Ya'll be t3h jealous of the z28 tags. Thats all i'm sayin

Not really, they're just badges, and atleast im not considering getting them right now with my v6, oh well atleast my exhaust makes it sound like a V8 :)

my exhaust makes it sound like a V8 :)

I doubt that....

Doubt all you want, but the guy who had it before me did something and it sounds like an Lt1 with exhaust.

no offense but to a trained ear, no v6 exhaust can sound like a v8, mainly because they don't rumble the same way... a v8 fires more times per rpm than a v6 so it is impossible to have the same sound. granted tho, it isn't hard to convince most people these days... not many can tell the difference anymore...

btw, keep the RS badges, that's wut i'm doing that way i can surprise people who think i have a slow v6 or weak v8... the LT1 is anything but weak :evillol:
