Yep! It's Been Five Months Now!!!!
And I have gotta say......I JUST LOVE THIS CAR!!!!!
I have always wanted a convertible and now that I have one, I cannot see how I have gone all my life without one! I was always steered away from owning one, from higher prices to folks who always talked them down to me, I guess they were just hating on them, or jealous of them.....i dunno. Ya I have had several Jeep Wranglers and I know they are a convertible, but I have never had a "car" that was a drop top. I have totally enjoyed the ownership of my 2012 hard top but after having the 'vert I really don't miss it, I do however LOVE the Camaros looks as a hard top, and I am not very fond of the looks of the 'vert with the top up, but once it is down.....NOTHING looks as good as a 'vert with the top down. It turns out that a 'vert is all that I thought or imagined it would be, I am so glad that I stopped listening to all the nay sayers and just went ahead and got ME one, and an extremely thankful for the fact that it is a Camaro. Now that I no longer use it for work and it is in "toy" status, that makes it a whole lot more injoyable, because now if you see me out on the roads in it, I am most likely just cruizin it and enjoying it. This car is a head turner and I get compliments all the time around town, especially when I have the top down, folks will slow down and honk at me, roll there windows down and start shouting compliments at me, takes a little gettin used to lol. This weekend I did some cruizin in it and I even took a few pics of it down at Cars & Coffee right here in Henderson Nevada.

We've had ours for 7 months now and feel the same way. I'm pretty sure we're convertible people for life now, I cannot imagine ever being without one again.

As Fall descends upon the snow belt, I am beginning to realize how long I'm going to have to go with top up. Bummed.
To the OP, I love your cheerleading of the vert even through the desert summer!

yeah winter is approaching far faster than I'd like. We've already had a couple low 40 degree mornings. I've got a nephew getting married in November, I'm hoping for a halfway warm day then so we can take Samus, then hibernate her for the winter.
