HA HA HA! Seriously... how cool would it be to line up with a Mustang in a minivan and just smoke him! I would have to get a rear window decal that says something like "you just got smoked by a minivan!"

"Minivan, Megamuscle" on the back lol.

I like where this thread is going so I gotta say, I still have a 3.0 L 1995 Dodge Grand Caravan for the Family. It runs strong as anything I've ever driven, except my Z/28.

I can't believe that it's still alive, number one...or how powerful it explodes when I tell it to. I have smoked more SUV's, tauruses, and other, newer minivans just for fun, than I can count. I have been toying with the idea of suping it up bit, but I guess I'll wait for the 5th Gen

So by that logic, anyone who would like to use a Camaro as an everyday vehicle is SOL?

in my eyes yes ive got a pickup to do everyday crap my camaro will be a special ocasion and weekend cruiser.

The only trunk issues I have had are with the 4th gen. My 1st and 2nd gens I can fit more than people think. You just have to be creative in packing it.

I fit 8 people (including myself) in my 82.

And the trunk in all my Camaro's (82, 91, 02) was more functional than any car I've owned with a regular trunk. Being able to lift the whole hatch gives a lot more options.

That is fine, but just becasue you are fortunate enough to have multiple vehicles (as am I) doesn't mean that those who are not so fortunate should be neglected the ability to use this car as an everyday vehicle. I am pretty sure that GMs objective is to sell cars here, if they have that same attitude, then they will not sell cars and the Camaro will once again fade away.

Someone had posted up a link to a video a while back (maybe on another site) of an actual mini-van smoking a Camaro. It was rediculous! I'll see if I can find it...

*Mr. Wyndham* · 03-18-2007, 08:44 PM

That's so embarrassing... almost as much as that stupid mustang driver vid....but not quite

IROC'em · 03-20-2007, 07:14 PM

I saw this lil scion SUV deal absolutely blow the flippin doors off this Enzo. They line up and the Enzo is fluttering engine a lil, then the count starts and u hear the 4 banger in this scion just friggin SCREAM! Guy drops the clutch and the lil SUV is GONE before the Enzo even hits 60.

*Mr. Wyndham* · 03-20-2007, 07:18 PM

I don't think any of us here have to worry about being smoked by minivan's or SUV's in our 5th Gens
