Default My 2011 Camaro SS RS

The time came to get rid of my 2008 Z06, and get something with a back seat. There was no way I was gonna buy anything other than some type of sportscar, so after looking around some, I settled on a new 2011 Camaro SS RS. After my first Corvette(black), I vowed I'd never own a black car again, my ZO6 was Velocity Yellow. A Yellow Camaro was out of the question, so after looking at different Camaro's, this is what I finally decided on...

Thank you. Yeah, my garage was a mess too, but I cleaned it up about two weeks ago. Anything that would fit in the shed, is in the shed, and everything else is in a large storage container. I can't wait to wash & wax the new Camaro, the snow had just melted, and it was raining the day I bought it. We got 5" of snow yesterday, and today it's a whopping 10 degrees, with a wind chill of 0. No telling when I'll get to see it clean, and scratch free. I'm guessing it's been washed at the dealer a few times, the paints swirreled, and has some light scratches, nothing that won't buff out though.

Thank you. Haven't really got to drive it much, it was raining the day I bought it, and the roads were still covered in sand & salt. Yesterday we got 5" of snow, so I won't get to drive it much anytime soon. I did take it out a couple days ago on a quick drive, I stepped on it a little, but with the break in period, didn't push it. I really like it, but it's definitely no Z06, the Z could put the fear of god into you. I'd guess there's gonna be no comparing the two, the Z06 was a lot lighter, sat lower, had much wider tires, etc.

My Z out at Lake Monroe in early fall...

Nice Vette, I was into them since 72, but just bought a 2011 SS RS too. C'mon spring!
