I drove my first car for 20 years...bought for $500 dollars in the middle of High School. So, I wanted my first new car to really count because I knew I would drive it for two decades (or longer). When I saw the Camaro Concept...I knew that was going to be my first new car.

My wife asked, "Why not a KIA, or a Mazda." My reply, "I'm 35 years old. I just got back from my third tour in Iraq. I've driven the same car for twenty years. I havent had a car payment in twenty years. I am getting a Camaro with everything I want...end of story." Well, she finally understood and she really was happy for me. No need for quid pro quo.

My 2010 Camaro SS was perfect for my first new car. I love it!
