2022 LT1 in SW Ontario

Hi
Ordered a 22 LT1 Riverside blue, manual w/sunroof, tech pkg, Satin black pkg, dual NPP exhaust and Recaros! Hopefully delivered by mid-June is what the dealer said. We’re not too far from the assembly plant in MI.
Got a great deal trading in my base model Velocity blue 2020 MUSTANG GT manual w/301A pkg, black accent and active exhaust. It only has 8000kms. The GT is great bang for the buck performance wise but the LT1 is even better with the options I was able to get with it👍🏼
Here’s a list of cars I’ve enjoyed in my 51years on this planet
88 Pontiac Firebird: 2.8 V6 I was 17 and it was great! If it was an 8cyl I would have had some major issues
89 Toyota Celica GTS: Actually belonged to my girlfriend who’s now my wife. This is the car I learned how to drive a manual in.
95 Eagle Talon TSI AWD manual: First car I started doing some performance mods on and heading to the track with. Ran a 13.4 at 105 which back then was pretty awesome for a daily driven 4 banger.
2002 Grand Prix GTP: Daughter was born and had to get a sedan for safety and space. It filled the gap during early fatherhood.
2006 Mazdaspeed6 AWD: Got the itch for a manual again and in between my son was born so had to stick with a sedan.
2011 BMW 135i manual: No more booster seats! This was a fun car! 300hp/tq and lightweight! I wish I would had kept this one a little longer.
2013 BMW 328i Xdrive autoKids decided to play travel sports so needed the space and winter traction.
2020 Mustang GT: Kids driving their own cars now and decided to give myself a 50th midlife crisis covid birthday gift
A couple Minivans and several SUVS paired with these vehicles that I’d rather not go into detail about
I think I will keep this Camaro and pass it on to my son when it’s paid off
As you see, I’ve experienced and I respect various types of cars. I have friends with exotics, cobras, JDMs and classics. I believe regardless of the brand you are loyal to, if you enjoy cars, driving and performance whether it’s a 4cyl Japanese car or American Muscle you feel the same way
Sorry for the short essay! Hope to be part of the community for a while!

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!!
