That indeed is an awesome garage... 4 cool cars + the Camaro. Makes me daydream what my others would be if in that predicament...

Kind of what you look for in a woman--someone who's lot of fun most of the time but is a bit terrifying if you cross her

[C5RocksC5]

that's why your dad has it...it is a big boy toy.

lower the lift until all that power is in that goat and drive the goat as desired...

This sounds more like me than my ex though I am generally quiet and will keep to myself. If people want to talk have a good conversation and laughs they talk to me. The one thing is if they do something that I do not find right I will let them know and I am not afraid to get into it. Yes I am rather intimidating at the hight of 6'4" and funny eastern European accent! :-)


Ohhh and about the cars - they are all good looking. Even though I am enjoying my Camaro I would not mind having the GT500 or any of the ones in that garage!!!

Still, "too much power" is a good problem to have. Maybe we're too used to mashing the gas and never losing traction? That happens sometimes in my daily driver and it pisses me off, so I like having more power than I can use. I don't want the limit to be the car - it should be me!

Very well said.
I would love a GT500. They are gorgeous and mean machines for sure.

Ahhhh, GT500, that is one awesome car

these cars are getting so powerful they're going to be difficult to handle. you just hope the people that have them are mature enough to realize what they're driving and treat the power with respect.

You'd probably have been laughed at 100-10 years if you told someone "I bet anyone with 55,000 dollars can buy a factory 600-700 hp car and drive it around the neighborhood."

These cars are scary, and they'll sell them to someone like me.

LOL That's the difference between the Camaro and the GT500. The GT500 is a car that is ready to kill you. The Camaro is more likely to just submit to your will. The GT500 is like the Viper, don't F*** with it because it will F*** with you…

I think that guy should get his head examined during his next trip to the gynaecologist…
