Greetings from Scenic Flint, Michigan...

Howdy,
A change in plans has lead me to pull the trigger on a new 2013 2SS/RS M6, and I am undeniably excited about the purchase. The initial plan was to keep my 02 Intimidator Monte Carlo SS running for a few more years and to get started on a Corvette project, but with a number of mechanical issues plaguing the Monte, and it's general decline in value (plus rusty quarters), I just can't justify pumping any more money into it... It sucks because I loved that car, underpowered as it was, and it was the specific one that GM took on the Hot Rod Power Tour in '02 to show it off, but I suppose all cars go to heaven (or maybe to a good home, hopefully) at some point.

As for me, I've done a lot of different things... I served as a Firefighter for the better part of a decade, I played drums in a band that toured the region (semi-successfully, but nothing to write a book about), and eventually I landed that job that most five-year-old little boys dream about, working as a freight railroad conductor. I live a good life, and fill my time with several hobbies such as competitive shooting, playing guitar and drums, Hockey, Golf, video-games (XBox), and whatever else piques my interest.

While I anxiously await the arrival of my new ride, I have spent several hours browsing the forum and the internet in general in search of ideas... I suppose it's quite imposing, considering I don't even have the car yet, but hey... dream big...

CONGRATS on your ride and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. 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, dad's, wive's, husband's, girlfriend's and boyfriend's 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!!
