I like your choice of Vette! Thanks for the wishes, smiles are what it is all about. With the LT1 under the hood, the Camaro should allow my right foot to bring some excitement.Yabutt it's better than the alternative!
VanG. Even though we never met I like your style and you have my sincere best wishes.
Have fun and I'm sure you will keep smiling in your Camaro.
Warm regards,
Dick
The hot chicks I am eligible to pick up are on the BBQ rack at our local grocery store. At least that is what I tell my bride of 56 years.I forgot to mention Vanguard2001: I think the Camaro (especially your convertible) qualifies as a "hot car chick magnet" so you'll still be able to attract and pick up gorgeous women with it; keeping you forever young. You can't go wrong!
Those chicks will enjoy the ride home in the 2SS just as much as the Vette. Hey, and the Camaro has a 'back seat' for untold shenanigans.
I don't know your age or physical condition but here is my story. My Vette lady allows me to drop my butt onto her seat and assume the driving position with only a little resistance. If my butt is cold, she warms it up. If my butt is hot (rarely) she turns me off with a cool draft. However, she does not want me to leave! After the seat memory raises the steering and the seat slides all the way back, my beautiful lady says, please don't leave me. Swinging both legs through the door opening and planting them on the ground causes frowns and curses. Then, to add insult, I have to stand up! If only I could spend all day in the seat, driving life would be fine. Arthritis is a mean mistress.
Well folks, the time has come to leave the Corvette family. After 6 years and 2 amazing Vettes, I have traded my beautiful 2019 GS for a 2024 Camaro 2SS. Don't diss me too much, but I know, I know .... it is not a Vette. Same LT1 engine but a long way from a Corvette. This will be my last sports car and as I approach 78, I needed something that was easier to enter and exit. If I bought a Mustang or a Challenger then you could really diss me, but I would not have announced it.
I will remain a member of this forum and follow the shenanigans. Thanks for all the support.
By the way the main Camaro forum is terrible!

I understand completely. I turn 75 YY in Jan. and my current C8 is my 5th corvette. When time comes I will probably but a hot SUV SQ5.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I still don't have the car, it is in Thetford Mines at Bisson Chev. Can't drive it on the Eagle F1 summer tires. And both dealers don't want to ship it on a flatbed because they have had too many cases of damage with low slung performance cars. I am considering having Bisson install winter rubber and then going to get it myself.
Thank you. The Camaro is very good in the winter when equipped with proper winter tires. It was my daily driver for 2 years and i have driven it in a few snow storm. In the deep stuff it struggles a bit but it handles normal winter driving without any problems.
I hear ya, any activities in the back seat of a Mustang would be a challenge. All young men should have a four door vehicle, opening one back door allows one to stretch their legs, so to speak.
I appreciate that Murray. If I can replicate your Camaro record and hold the rollover until near the end of the 20 years, I will be 98 and will use it for my casket as suggested by YFCviiI drove my 4th gens for 20 years 365 days a year. I only rolled it once!
