I just turned 50,000 miles yesterday in my early build SS. That's only a little over 6,000 a
year. I consider that low Mileage for an 8+ year old Camaro. Using it and enjoying it and
not saving it for anyone.

Wow some harsh replies in this thread, where is that Camaro camaraderie ;-)
Some owners get enjoyment being with their cars without actually driving them all over the planet ...
- it is a hobby to tinker and detail and bring them to car shows, cars and coffee, etc.
Just ask Jay Leno he rarely drives most of them. Disclaimer -- mine is not a contender for this thread.

2013 with 1331 miles..

It's not the number of miles on the car.
It's the number of smiles the car puts on us

My comment wasn't supposed to be harsh, I just don't get how someone can have a car like this and not drive it. No I don't drive mine in the rain when I can avoid it and I don't drive it in the winter, but I'm not afraid to take it out on a nice sunny day, to a car show, or just going to the store and have some fun with her. No point in just letting her sit and rot.

Well that’s about the dumbest $hit I’ve ever read. The entire premise of this thread is about owning an item and then bragging about not using the item for its intended purpose. What kind of backwards a$$ idiot nonsense is this?

How about who has the lowest mileage gen5 Camaro Contest!

I thought I would have a crack at it but my 15 1le has about 3800

I was planning on taking it on a road trip but I didn’t get around to this year

I’m not worried about saving miles on the car it is more of a fact of not having the time to drive it. I frequently drive it to work however I only work 2 miles from home and of course winter time i won’t take it out

#1 I am not bragging, responding to a thread does not constitute bragging (oh wait, do you know what constitute means?)
#2 how do you now what the intended purpose of my car is?
#3 if I had your car, I would hire a 16 year old to drive it for Uber, or maybe get a part time job at Jimmy Johns and become a delivery boy, maybe pizza delivery?
#4 never been called an idiot from someone who lives in Alabama, that hurt.

Eh... To each his own, but I for one am not going to let someone else get a practically new car ... 40,000 miles and counting! And I have enjoyed every mile.

I won’t try to explain context to you. I’m just saying, if it has wheels, a transmission, a motor and other automotive type parts, it’s intended use probably wasn’t a coffee table.

Cheers to all the low mileage Camaros out there. To each his own.

I'm with you. In 8 years I've been up and down the East Coast plus trips to the
camaro5Fest #1 in Valdosta, Ga; Indy camaro5Fest #1; Up into Canada for the
Assembly plant tour. All of the above with Camaro5 caravans. Then personal
trips to Miami, Fl; Annapolis, Md. Plus other shorter trips. IMO I'de rather have
those 50,000 mile memories than my SS sitting in my garage with 1500 miles
on it.... Somewhere in Pa. VVV
