Our Camaro's are NOT C5's.

Devryn17 · 05-22-2011, 10:24 PM

Seriously, guys and gals, this is getting irritating...
I know this is nitpicky, (and not that you asked or give two ****s), but there is something driving me absolutely crazy.

The cars we're here about are 5th Gen Camaros. They are not "C5s." A C5 is a Corvette. There is no such thing as a C5 Camaro. Please stop calling them C5s. For those that need visual help:

C5:

5th Gen Camaro:

C5 = Camaro5 forums, just a guess though.

In a recent thread someone said "You'll own all the C5 pace cars." Don't think they were talkin about this forum.

BackinBlackSS/RS · 05-22-2011, 10:31 PM

I don't recall that many references to C5.

Devryn17 · 05-22-2011, 10:34 PM

I honestly see it at least once or twice a day on this particular forum. The other forum doesn't have this problem. I have a theory that alot of the active posters on this forum came from an import car culture or just don't know anything about cars (same thing right?), and nobody has ever bothered to correct them.

I call mine a Camaro however if you want to get technical its a 5thgen

Corvettes went with the C in front of the Generation of the car.

Camaro always have gone by the GENERATION IT WAS

Hell its a Camaro who cares.

LOL, very true. I am going to start correcting people. Maybe I will get annoying enough that people will stop doing it just to shut me up.

Exactly...Except for the last part. I care. :P Can't help it. I've loved all things car since my first hot wheels, and I don't want misinformation spread.

Also hates it when I hear S10s referred to as S-dimes...
