Without even looking we think it's a GM product and not worth looking at.

Reminds me of the new Mustang on the market.

I was forbidden to buy a Camaro 15 years ago by my ex-wife on the grounds that, "Only macho, redneck mf-ers" drive those...After owning a Chrysler Sebring I'll never buy a US car again. Interesting how many models are morphing together - about 6 months ago I saw a new Bentley behind me on the 405. Since I think this is the ultimate car I let it catch and pass me so I could take a look - turned out to be a Kia :?

I kinda prefer this one:

When I moved to Brantford in 1973, it was the hey day of Massey Ferguson and White Fame Equipment and guys would leave high school and go to work at the factory and make a fortune(that high pay eventually killed most of the manufacturing in the city). First thing they would do is buy a Camaro. The local MacDonald's parking lot was full of them. So, when I got a little older, I bought myself a 69, 76 and then an 83. Sold the 69RS for 600.00 because I thought I needed the moeny in 1981. Idiot. Had even a better custom paint job than this one.

Bitchin' Camaro

Rod - Hey Jack, what's happenin'?
Joe - Oh, I don't know.
Rod - Well, rumor around town says you think you might be heading down to the shore.
Joe - Uh, yeah, I think I'm goin' down to the shore.
Rod - Whatcha gonna do down there?
Joe - Uh, I don't know, play some video games, buy some Def Leppard t-shirts.
Rod - Hey, don't forget to get your Motley Crue t-shirt, y'know, all proceeds go to get their lead singer out of jail.
Joe - Uh huh.
Rod - Hey, you gonna check out the Sandbar while you're there?
Joe - Uh, what's the Sandbar?
Rod - Oh, it's this place that lets sixteen year-old kids drink.
Joe - Oh, cool.
Rod - Y'know who's gonna be there?
Joe - Uh, who?
Rod - My favorite cover band, Crystal Shit.
Joe - Oh.
Rod - Yeah, they do a Doors show, you'd be really impressed, in fact, it goes a little like this:

Love me two times baby
Love me twice today
Love me two times girl
Cause I got AIDS
Love me two times baby, once for tomorrow, once cause I got AIDS

Joe - Wow, Pretty good Jim Morrison impersonation there.
Rod - Yeah, I hope those guys have a good sense of humor and don't take us to court.
Joe - Uh, what's the court?
Rod - Never mind that,
Joe - Oh, you mean like the People's Court?
Rod - Well, that's another story; the important thing here is you gotta ask me how I'm gonna get down to the shore.
Joe - Uh, how you gonna get down to the shore?
Rod - Funny you should ask, I've got a car now.
Joe - Oh wow, how'd you get a car?
Rod - Oh my parents drove it up here from the Bahamas.
Joe - You're kidding!
Rod - I must be, the Bahamas are islands, okay, the important thing now, is that you ask me what kind of car I have.
Joe - Uh, what kinda car do ya' got?
Rod - I've got a BITCHIN CAMARO!

BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
I ran over my neighbors
BITCHIN CAMARAO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Now it's in all the papers.
My folks bought me a BITCHIN CAMARO with no insurance to match;
So if you happen to run me down, please don't leave a scratch.
I ran over some old lady one night at the county fair;
And I didn't get arrested, because my dad's the mayor.
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Doughnuts on your lawn
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Tony Orlando and Dawn
When I drive past the kids, they all spit and cuss,
Because I've got a BITCHIN CAMARO and they have to ride the bus.
So you'd better get out of my way, when I run through your yard;
Because I've got a BITCHIN CAMARO;
And an Exxon credit card.
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Hey, man where ya headed?
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
I drive on unleaded.

I can't remember the last time I saw anyone other than a chauffeur driving one of those things. Do real people buy them?

I saw a new Mercedes 500 something today which looked like a Ford Taurus. You probably could buy 4 of them for the price of that Mercedes.

Maybe I should retract that statement! On Sunday's 60 Minutes (which I just watched on tape) Andy Rooney said he got the most mail in his 28 years on the show after his piece a couple of weeks ago in which he said not-so-nice things about American cars.
