Lisa retired from GM a few months ago, she worked in Oshawa, having worked for GM 30+ years. She worked on the Camaro assembly line. I got to go with her on her last day of work, here's a pic from that day too.

As a retirement gift for Lisa, searching... and found the very last available new ZL1 Camaro in Canada sitting on a dealer's lot in Calgary, and we just received it last Tuesday. She got a great deal on it, employee discount, etc., she traded in her C5 Corvette towards it. The dealer salesperson Frank Ventura from GSLGMCity in Calgary was a great help arranging the deal.

I'll be hanging out the forum now and then for tips, this a great Camaro club, lots of great members and cars, often lurked it when we were doing the 2014 Camaro refresh, as I once worked at GM as a Design Release Engineer, and was responsible for the hood extractor for the SS and Z/28, got to know the Camaro / GM Performance folks, it was a highlight in my career, one of the best group of car guys I worked with in my career.

Happy wife = happy life!

We can't take it out, we had ice storm yesterday!, so she's sitting in the garage waiting for warm weather.















Cheers,
Mike

Nice car. Congrats!
