So, two days ago she turned 6 months

The Stig · 06-04-2011, 02:57 PM

congrats on the birthdays. Now I know that this topic is beat to death, but please respect the car and her power.

MClarenF1 · 06-04-2011, 03:05 PM

yeh, thanks! honestly i dont even push this car ever, i jus try to save gas most of the time. I hate asking my parents for gas money.. so the money i get for food i spend on gas instead. It has power, but didnt impress me really... I was jus so used to bein in my cousin's GTR that it never really wowed me

mikeSS · 06-04-2011, 03:50 PM

cool man i remember i got my SS for my 18th B-day. came home one day and there was a camaro in my spot in the garage.i feel the same way about the car not giving that wow factor as much as other cars i have been in. my good friend today was driving in a ferrari italia 458 telling me how much of a wow factor that car is !

You guys are really blessed to be able to get this car as a gift. I'm 24 and I have been working what seems like forever to save for a SS. Happy bday to you and your car.

Happy birthday and I agree with you on not enough power I got it for my 17th birthday about a month ago and the power just doesn't wow me especially compare to our ZR1 now that can really wow you. And for the record we are all very appreciative of what we have

beetlei · 06-04-2011, 05:53 PM

Yeah, thanks Dad, for giving me such a mediocre car. Maybe next time you'll give me one with a little more WOW factor.

L99SS · 06-04-2011, 06:02 PM

Ha! I'd say the wow/dollar ratio in the Camaro is very high - given everyone's comparison to six-figure autos such as Ferraris and ZR1s in order to make their point.

Congrats OP on the birthday. I remember when I turned 18 - felt good to finally reach legal adulthood, but then you realize the world doesn't change much for the occasion. Well, except now the responsibility is all yours to make good at life. Don't waste it.

This thread is interesting. I get more looks in my modded LS than I ever did driving my uncle's Porsche Boxster.

what year is it. also that is the worst porsche you can buy. you going to need at least a porsche cayman S to get respect in the porsche world.

also the camaro is a new look. its going to get looks over a boxster.

a boxster is FAR from a WOW factor.

I knew where this thread was going once I read "turned 18" in the title. I give it 4 pages unless a mod does a preventative lock earlier.

Am i spoiled?

No. Absolutely.

Am i blessed to have parents who have good jobs and a nice level of income so that they can provide for me and my siblings, and let us have nicer things in life?

Absolutely.

there was a mistake in your post

Javier · 06-04-2011, 09:05 PM

18 year old right here. Spoiled? NO. Lucky to be born into my family? YES. Very grateful for getting a camaro, specially at this age. Never have I questioned the WOW power of my V6 camaro.
