Purchaced new Camaro SS - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

rocknss · 02-26-2017, 04:01 PM

I know this is a truck forum but I just purchased a new 50th Anniversary Camaro SS and wanted to share some pictures of my new car.

flashed · 02-26-2017, 04:46 PM

Looks fast just sitting there .

rocknss · 02-26-2017, 05:09 PM

Thanks, I haven't driven it very fast yet!!

**truckster** · 02-26-2017, 10:22 PM

Very nice. I have a 79 and a 95 Z28 convertible and wouldn't ever part with them.

I think you're going to love it.

LuckyScott · 02-26-2017, 10:58 PM

Wow, for that amount of money you could have bought a really nice '72.
(Sorry, someone had to say it.)

**special-K** · 02-27-2017, 08:48 AM

Happy Anniversary! That's a nice appearance package. It just says Fiddy on the side

. I like those stripes, something new and unique yet a taste of the past. Very artistic and subtle. I keep looking at Camaros expecting to see shades of the old ones and coming up short, but those doggone Camaros are just their own 21st century badass just like their kinfolk back in the day little cars. I don't think designers ever intended to do like Mustang and Challenger and make a sudo-replica. They took the essence of the early Camaro...along with the general silhouette and made the 'next' Camaro, as a step forward into this century.

The amount I put for a down payment would have bought a nice 67-72!

Actually, it didn't "have" to be said.

Nice car. All around great daily use/fun type cars (drivability, balanced, power, & efficiency (vs power output). I'd want the 1LE package (can't justify the additional dealer mark-up's on the Z28).

Thanks, I owned a 2001 SS but sold it!!

I have been planing to buy a new Camaro for a few years but waited for the
50th Anniversary when I saw how it looks!!

Too each their own but i fixed it for ya.

How can ya go wrong with a new friend,pal or comrade.
Certainly is a slick lookin car....please tell me you got a manual trans in that rocket.

I must say that the latest camaro's and vette's are the best looking models in a long long time.

4x4chase · 02-27-2017, 12:25 PM

I was wondering if they were going to do a fifty, considering the break they took. I would love to have one to compliment my 67

**TJ's Chevy** · 02-27-2017, 02:06 PM

Dang that's a nice car! Congrats!

Indian113 · 02-27-2017, 02:52 PM

Nice Car! Enjoy it don't let Anybody tell you they wouldn't drive it

chevy72blu · 02-27-2017, 05:00 PM

That is bad ass! I looked at one back in '13 and I loved everything about it but the visibility... I had a hard time seeing out of it.

The 50th anniversary is a perfect time to buy one. Love the badge

cypressbog · 02-27-2017, 05:13 PM

Super looking SS! Now get it off the streets until all the winter salt has washed away!

**davischevy** · 02-27-2017, 10:49 PM

That's a good lookin' ride.

3drburb · 02-27-2017, 11:11 PM

Very nice buy. Congratulations.
Any interior pictures?

I think they did a pretty good job with bring back shade of the old.

rocknss · 02-28-2017, 12:08 AM

Thank you for all the nice reply's!

Tomorrow it is getting the black BowTie's installed and I will post some more pictures of it, including the interior.

67ChevyRedneck · 02-28-2017, 10:55 AM

I want one so bad, but I have too many toys I won't give up and I needed a full size truck instead.

rocknss · 02-28-2017, 11:07 PM

Here are some interior pictures and a picture of the new BowTie.

3drburb · 03-01-2017, 01:17 AM

Looks like a lot of fun. It might take a while to figure out all that new stuff.

Its a blast to drive!

My job has me travel so I get to drive a lot of new cars so I know all the bells and whistles. What is new is the performance of the Camaro, the ones I get for rentals are the V6's.

OhioChevy · 03-05-2017, 02:32 AM

Congratulations on getting a nice car. If I were in the market for a car I would have waited for the Fifty also. Looks fast just sitting still.
