Another thing, to diss someone else's car simply because it is a V6 is totally not cool man. I saw the build thread, and her car is pretty sweet. Would your opinion be different if she put SS badges over it and left the hood closed?
And I'm not coming at you so don't take this reply the wrong way. But seriously man, how many of these elite 5th gen owners are you running into. Even if you ran into 1 every now and again it isn't enough to make you not enjoy your car. EVERY car group has these types. The import crowds have them, The Mustang crowd has them, the Dodge boys have them...GTR's, CTS-V's, Vettes...etc etc. Why are you not enjoying your car? Is your love for your car based solely on how people who have the same car behave? Rhetorical question there...just saying. Your attitude towards Tori's car is exactly what you say you hate...irony man, irony.

You know... I'm on the fence. I read it about 4 times, tried to take it all in and considered some of her other posts. I still can't tell if she was being sarcastic or not... I decided to leave it because it's true, even if it was falsely directed at Tori. If she was in fact being sarcastic, which is possible, I am sorry, Tori, but my point is still the same.
As far as the V6 comment, same goes for V8s. I may take a quick peek at a show to see if the cars modded, but basically any 5th gen Camaro gets passed right by. I have no hate for the V6 at all. I just feel that when I am surrounded by beautiful classics at a car show, I don't need to take notice of every other 5th gen Camaro there with 3M chrome, excessively over badged and LEDs stuck everywhere they can be. Tacky is tacky, V6, V8... whatever.
No disrespect meant, but I don't think her car is anything special. It may be to her, and that's great but I am not wowed by it at all.
I am sure a lot of people feel the same way about mine, and I don't care. Today mine is loaded up with tools in the trunk and some blinds to hang at work. The saw dust is still in the trunk from when I hauled some lumber. Oh, and guess what, it may rain today and I still haven't washed it from when it got poured on 2 weeks ago! Car still runs great, hasn't fallen apart. And now for the kicker. I may go to Walmart today. You can bet your bottom dollar I'll only take one spot.
I am sorry if people take offense to what I say or feel I am rude or crass but, the stigmata associated with this car is not a positive one. No wonder some non-5th gen owners won't talk to us... they think we have huge chips on our shoulders.
Just sent... don't want to offend anyone.
