Lo all,

35 yo US Navy Vet. Got out in 09 to start a family. I was a amatuer bike racer in my early 20's, mostly just 600CC. Grew up with a grandfather who worked on Chevy's and another who worked on Ford's. They were your local town single owner garage guys. As a kid I grew up always wanting a Camaro, but it was always a financial challenge.

At this point in my life i'm finally at the place where I can seriously purchase a new car without feeling the pinch. So i've been in the search for "my Camaro" roughly 5 weeks now and still going. I've been ghosting around on the forum for a couple of those weeks and finally registered this past week. To be honest the more time I have to do it (reading those awful A8 issues, my thoughts are with those owners!) i've found there are so many more intricacies to ownership than I initially realized. I think i'm getting to that point of decision paralysis because there are so many things to consider.

The purchase is inevitable, I just haven't found the right dealer and the right car yet. I hope spending more time around everyone will put me on the right path.
