Man.. I HATE when people base their whole opinion off of a car because they know one person with a bad experience. My friends parents had a early 3rd gen camaro and it was a total pos so now they talk bad about every camaro they see and refuse to let my friend get a 4th gen.

yes but on the other hand it would **** you off if you dunked 10k in performance and it falls apart a couple months after you fix it. first impression is everything, including a car to some people. to each their own.

one guy i know, has a first gen Talon TSI AWD and a turbo Laser fwd. he payed 3 for his talon, put a grand into it and he kept up with an LT1/LS1 in VERY hot weather. i cant remmeber what kinda camaro it was but it had exhaust and sounded like headers too. either way, his cars are both pretty fast for what he has put into them. he also has a friend with pretty minimal mods that is running low 12s. i like those cars and they are prolly the first import i would buy if looking at one, even tho i think they are still american, i mean 4 cylinder "tuners" lol.

While at the RSD's last night that was probably running low ten's at the slowest. It was exteremly fast and it wasn't a drag car, completely street legal and he drove it 30min's to get there.
