Finally in a Camaro in Denver

Hey peeps. I'm finally in a Camaro SS after lusting after one since the late 90's.

Around 2006 I did have a very nice looking beige 2002 Camaro Z28 35th anniversary T-Tops with the ground effects for about 2 weeks.

That Acura dealership in Colorado Springs pulled the bait and switch on me and I was unaware of how that works at the time.
I had traded in my 2002 S10 Xtreme and drove away in the Maro with no money down. 2 weeks later they called me to tell me "there is something wrong with your credit, you have to give us a $3000 down payment to keep the car."
At the time I didn't know any better so I returned the car and took my Xtreme back. I wasn't about to fork over 3K for nothing and I didn't know I could've just ignored 'em.

That Xtreme was nice but it didn't fulfill my v8 lust. It got traded in for a Denali. Denali was super nice, had a 6.0 Vortec but it felt like driving a tank and it had no handling to speak of.

Traded the Denali in on a sexy Trailblazer SS which has been my loyal workhorse/daily since new.

Finally 2022 rolls around, after lurking in the used car websites for about 2 years and used car prices being in the stratosphere, it made more sense to buy brand new than to spend equal or more money for a 2 to 3 year old car with 30K to 40K miles.

This badboy checks off all my boxes being a 2SS. I will upload pics once I remember how to do it. Haha

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!!
