who's the number one enthusiast on the next camaro?

[afterdigital]

Considering how many people on this forum are crazy excited about the next generation camaro i thought about who can be more excited than me? In my world no one. But i could be wrong. LOL

NOw, i don't know many of you as i've only been on this forum for a short period. But i've gotten to know some of you. TagUrIt, Moose, and Official Style comes to mind as one of the top true enthusiast for the next Camaro.

So rather than a poll (too many names), point out why you should be voted the number one enthusiast on the next camaro.

I for one have had the desire for a 68 Camaro since i was 15. i told my wife that for my 40th birthday i want one - this was 4 years ago. Now i'm 38 and since i first got wind of the new concept my desire shifted. I still want my wife to get it LOL but rather than a 68 - a 2008 (2009)....

Here's my vote for 'Greatest Camaro Enthusiast';

First Place - FBODFATHER, Mr. Scott Settlemire

Second Place - (a tie) ME! 1. I saw it with Scott in NY! (I'm in the SS shirt)

2. I sat in it at Carlisle!

3. I drove 7 hrs. to Dale Earnhardt Inc. for the 'Camaro Legends Show'

4. My 1st car was a '75 Camaro. 5. I've owned 5 Camaro's.
And 'Tag', as he also met with Fbodfather and saw the concept.

Seriously, IMO, that fact that we're all Camaro enthusiasts makes us all WINNERS!

[TAG UR IT]

I'd have to second Moose's reply about Scott being the #1 fan. That was an excellent response. Scott has just about the coolest job in the world with "family" all over the United States (heck, the world for that matter). Moose, you are one heck of a fan too. But, you put it very well when you said we are all fans.

Here's why I'm a fan. I've owned 6 Chevy's and no other brand at all. My last 3 Chevys were Camaros (because I finally had a say in what I drove). I got into Camaros because my old roommate had a 97. I drove it once and was amazed at the raw power it had. I then did a college research project with a subject of my choice. It was the perfect opportunity to learn more about the Camaro. Needless to say it was a win/win situation for me (I learned a lot about someting I enjoyed and got an A on my project).

I am employed full time and it's difficult to not only take off of work, but it's also difficult to find something Camaro related way down here in the south of Texas. We don't get the big car shows, Camaro reunions, etc. But, when something does come along, I'm there. The last event was driving 5 hours up to Dallas to see the concept.

On another note, for those who want something bad enough, you'll do what it takes to get it. I flew up to Des Moines, Iowa (it was 18 degrees outside w/ snow and ice everywhere) to pick up my current SS. It was a huge gamble but it paid off royally. I then got to drive back 14 or so hours while having the flu in freezing weather....and it was a blast.

On another occassion, my wife and I were taking a vacation out to LA. I recently bought my first Camaro and wanted to make the trip by car. The wife took a plane the day after I left. I drove the Camaro and met her at the airport in Los Angeles. I love the long drives and that was a perfect way for me to get "lost in my world". I'd do it again in a hearbeat.

I don't claim to be the biggest fan, but I sure as hell love the Camaro. If I could have any other job, it would be working for GM in the design/testing/anything Camaro dept. For now, I'll just be happy being able to drive my 4th Gen as my daily until the 5th Gen comes along. ***I only pray there'll be some way I can keep my current 4th Gen SS and still be able to afford the concept..........

Congrats to all of you here. You are all fans.

Well said 'Tag'!

IMO, noone can "top" The Fbodfather.

To put it better, "He is our leader", "We are the faithful followers".

[boxmonkeyracing]

I just want one. I haven't even gotten to see the concept. it's always in the west. I never can see it close to here. oh well. I agree the fbodfather is #1.

Guess you didn't notice the dates when this thread was first posted.
This dates back to before the 5th Gen was produced.
