Can we all agree to ban the use of the term "MARO" on this forum - Page 17

maro reminds me of marrow (bone marrow), which makes me think that like bone marrow being the life source of all things blood in the body; likewise the Camaro is the life-source of the muscle car community.

ok, that was an intellectual stretch

I know it's supposed to be some sort of abbreviation perhaps, but is it just me or does "Maro" just sound incredible lame?

Im with you!

"Cam" is not much better.

i've been a Camaro fan since i was a kid and i never once heard any person or read in any magazine , refer to it as a Maro until the last couple years here on C5.
it sounds completely goofy to me. like someone making up a new catchphrase that they think is cool but isn't.

Whatever. 'maro, 'stang, 'cuda, call it whatever you want.

To me Twenty Ten sounds like a dumb way to say "Thirty"
The year is Two Thousand Ten.

While I don't like "twenty ten", I don't think anyone is going to stop using it. Much like the Maro, and Cammy terms.

how about we call it "ot-ten" just for you
