New to the forum

Hey everyone! This is my 1st thread I've posted on here. Thursday, April 26, 2012 I welcomed my new baby into my life. A beautiful 2012 Chevy Camaro 2LS in a super sexy Imperial Blue color. For years now I've always wanted a camaro and everytime I passed by one on the roads I would point to it and say out loud "I WILL own you one day!" (yeah it might have creeped a few people out but oh well lol) Now that I've finally got it, I couldn't be happier. My previous car was a 2003 Saturn L300 approaching 100,000 miles and showing it with constiant repairs. A few months ago I got a well paying job at GEICO that is a 50 minute drive from my house. I still love my Saturn, it was my first car I bought myself, financed in my own name (no co-signer), and I was proud of it. It just wasn't 100% reliable for the long distant drive anymore. So I sold that car to my parents and got the car of my dreams, paid for myself, financed in my own name again and I am extremely proud! :-)

So that is a little brief overview of things. I plan on adding the oraclel halo lights, hood spear stripes, skinny side spear stripes and gill stripes. If anyone has any advice of good places to go for customizing in the Tampa area I would greatly appreciate it! Any advice and tips are welcomed too!

Cool

Welcome to the board. C5 helped me tremendously before I bought my Camaro, and continues to give me invaluable information now that she is mine.

And that lizard is awesome. His picture is all over the building lol. One day I was in the cafeteria and we had an event being held ouside. Then all of the sudden a giant lizard walked passed me and scared the crap out of me lol. (some was dressed in the gecko mascot)
