First time bow tie owner

nprario · 07-13-2020, 12:14 PM

Been a Ford person my whole life. My last fun car was a Factory Five Roadster. My son has a 2016 GT 350 so when looking I was really thinking mustang but not the 350 due to the cost. We like to do HPDE events so I was looking at performance packages and comparing. After researching I just could not believe the options and performance of the Camaro 1LE compared to the Mustang GT especially additional cooling of tranny and diff. You pretty much get everything and more that even my sons car has minus the flat plane crank and over 500 HP of course.

So, glad to be a part of the GM family. I am spending a lot of time here trying to learn about the 2017 Hyper Blue 1le I have now and can't wait to get it out on the track.

CONGRATS on the ride, and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5/6. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wives', husbands, girlfriends and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!
