Do you drive your Camaro in the rain? - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Every chance I get its being driven, Rain, Sleet, Ice or Snow. My 91 Camaro on the other hand is only brought out for nice days, and spends most of its time under a car cover.

Mine is a dd so rain or shine snow or sleet my girl goes thru it and shes still a show car. DD can b pampered too

depends on when it was washed last. If I just washed it I'll usually drive something else, but if I've been driving it(brake dust

) then I'll drive in the rain and have a good time!

Not a matter of preserving the car, more just being lazy!

I do store it for the winter though.

Never think twice about it, mine is built by Chevy and won't melt... besides living in Florida it rains more times than not.

Orange Camaros do rule! I drive mine rain or no rain...yup a pain to clean but worth it. I have 4 other cars to pick from but i know it will be garaged all winter so need to drive it while I can. Picked it up the night of a tornado so I guess it's tough enough to handle it. They're made to drive!

No I don't.

PAUL SS · 10-20-2011, 09:20 AM

I try not to, if it's raining it stays inside. I have only got caught in the rain a couple of times. I don't like rusty nuts on my under carriage.

scuba264 · 10-20-2011, 09:22 AM

Daily driver, of course! It ain't a Lambo, I wanna enjoy it I'll trade it in someday! Hell, I got winter tires in the garage too that'll get mounted probably next month.

2 years and 4 months and my Camaro has never been driven in the rain or snow. I don't even know if the wipers work.
