The Papa John Camaro!
 
This is a pretty cool story. The owner of Papa John's has been searching for the first car he owned, a 1971 Z28 Camaro. He put up a $250k reward for it and someone brought it to him. In honor of this glorious moment Papa John's will be giving free pizzas to Camaro owners, today I think. Would you want to buy back your first car? I wouldn't mind getting my '87 Camaro back :)

I think it's great he got his first car back that he sold 2 start his papa John's Pizza, but for $250,000.00 I would have got a new ZR1 & used the rest of the money to party : )
I've never had a Papa John's Pizza, but it's cool that he is giving away a Large Pie with one topping to camaro owner's.
Do you think his Camaro is worth a 1/4 million ? It's amazing what rich people do with there money & there are millions of kids starving on our planet ????? I would respect him more if he gave free pie's 2 the hungry : ) 4-Sure....

I can kind of understand being a little nostalgic about your first car if it was a cool car... but I can think of a lot of other things to do with $250K!! I've seen the Papa John's commercial where he pulls up in the old Z28; it's an OK looking car, but not worth that kind of money for sure. Like KidSpace said, why not buy a nice new Vette? Give what he had left over to a charity.

I wouldn't want my first car back. It was a Toyota Corolla sport coupe with a 5 spd. It was kind of fun to drive, but not the best looking car out there (it was brown and had a tri-color tape stripe running end to end across the middle).
