Default My encounter with a 2010 Camaro SS

While visiting family in Tucson in late 2009. We rented a Camaro SS to drive from the Phoenix Airport to Tucson. A V8 427 HSP 6 speed trans automatic with paddle shift manual override and sport package

When driving Cruise Control was a MUST no sensation of speed. I had it up to 110 in the desert and didn't realize it

I rented another Camaro yesterday for a business trip to Bluffton In. I have more pics of that and took notes to share my feeling of that car in another thread I'll do in a bit.

almost every Asian/Chinese (not to be racist but there are A LOT that come from rich families,not sure why ISU but..) student at ISU drive's a new camaro, mustang, audi, and there's a couple with gtrs.... crazy how many come here and get brand new cars.. I've talked to a few that were hanging out in a parking lot and they said parents send them here with money for school and they buy new car and get loans for school, must be nice lol

OH NO. I'll drive what I want. I don't care how popular it is

I mean... at least it isn't an Edge or some other SUV like 95% of the cars around here.
