Thank you Oshawa!!! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

As my car sits in Toronto on the train and I wait here on Camaro5 dreaming of driving it, I thought this would be a good time to thank all the workers at the Oshawa plant for making the car of my dreams!

I am 27 and have been a Transformers fan and a car fan my whole life! I have collected 1:18 scale diecast metal cars, and Transformers since I was a little boy. I have about 200 cars and almost as many Transformers!

I also work as a motor vehicle damage appraiser and I know that the auto business isn't always the easiest industry to work in. I know all the workers at the Oshawa plant put a little of themselfs in every car they build, and I am proud to be able to drive a car that they produced.

Thank you again for all your hard work and for giving me a chance to own a car that feels like it was built just for me!

Thank you! Those 2 photos are just a small amount of my Collection! I have boxes and boxes of transformers not even opened.

A long time ago I sold a bunch of my transformers to a friend at work. He didn't know what they were worth I told him look em up and give me what ever. I never got anything so I guess they weren't worth anything! lol Yeah I got screwed but I didn't care at least he enjoys them. I now wish I never did. I had some that are very rare now. A cherry Jetfire, an original Optimus, Soundwave and all the cassettes. I look back now and wish I never did that. They were so cool. Well I have my Camaro now and a new cliffjumper to match it guess it'll have to do. Enjoy your new toy when you get it.
