I got my first Camaro back when I was in college and worked off campus. It was loud, old, rusty, and burned a ton of oil. With a 3-on-floor, the first gear was way too tall, but I still loved it and I was the only one among my friends with a car.
I got 1988 IROC with only 3,000 miles a few years out of college and a brand new one in 1995.
I now have a 2016 2SS Convertible. I just bought it used with 1900 miles for a way-off list.
With winter coming it will stay in slumber until at least March.
I am glad to be back in the club.
