Automotive enthusiasts?

That trunk idea is so insane. I bet it was so heavy

I saw one of these new Camaros in the shock color today. It’s hideous! In bright light the color is extremely florescent with a little green. It practically sears the eyes. Then there is the black hole where the front of the car is supposed to be.
 

@kleptomage  
I’m really glad they’re fixing the ugly design for 2020

@RainbowDash69  
I’ll be more glad if and when Chevrolet releases a new generation Camaro that is designed to be driven by real people.

Fine looking 55 Chevy. I’d recommend to have a brake job for its year if it wasn’t done already, though. (Disc Brake Conversion & Dual Master Cylinder.)

“The Wrist Twist” looks a bit silly by now (considering air bags) but I suppose a bunch of different things are tested throughout the years.
 
@RainbowDash69
 
Likely.
 
…
 
I saw a 70s Station Wagon on the road yesterday, likely a 1976 Malibu. There was also an 88 or 89 Ford LTD Wagon a day or two prior but I didn’t save the picture.
 

@BarryFromMars  
Big cruiser, looking great!!
 
 
Well this just happened to me today. Big rear-end crash. My mom says we can save the new wheels and new suspension parts (tie rod and strut are around or less than 1 year old)
 

@RainbowDash69  
Yikes…

@RainbowDash69  
Will insurance cover the damage or are you going to try to get another car?

@RainbowDash69  
rip oldsmobile :(

@kleptomage  
I’m gonna ask. But it looks worse in the other side. Entire side buckled and door is jammed shut. Calling insurance tomorrow

@The magic 🅱oi  
Yeah it is intense. The tow truck dude was feeling bad, he said a waste of a good bulletproof engine like the 3.4 V6

@RainbowDash69
 
How are you physically after the wreck? I’m glad hearing the wreck wasn’t worse. What kind of vehicle hit yours?

@BarryFromMars  
My ankle hurts and I might have whiplash. But my sister was fine. I was sobbing a lot I couldn’t even talk straight so she did lol
 
The dude was driving a 2007 Taurus. And his front bumper is hardly damaged. Just a leak and engine smoke…. and hood dent! Was going so fast I nearly hit the car in front of me but swerved

@RainbowDash69  
Crumple zones ftw

If the mid-engine Corvette replaces the C7 and the Camaro is discontinued in 2023 as rumors say, then GM will have no relatively affordable performance vehicles.
 
Another win for the Mustang, I guess.

@kleptomage  
That would be the second time they discontinued the Camaro since 2002. If the do that, then GM is dead to me. And this is coming from a guy who grew up a Chevy guy.

@kleptomage
 
If those rumors are indeed true, that means the Dodge Challenger, which doesn’t have a convertible version, will be the only rival to the Ford Mustang.

Let the Camaro die, it contributed nothing. If I were Chevy, I’d make a new car to rival the ‘Stang, this time one that’s actually noteworthy.
 
The mid-engined Corvette is a travesty, is that happens Chevy will be officially Italian. There is nothing worse to be than Italian.

Yikes! You guys were lucky that no one got severly hurt. I hope your insurance can help fix your car.
 
@GenericArchangel  
I-I like Camaros. :c
 
@kleptomage  
That being said, this one’s horrible looking. :/

This is not

@Lord Goku  
A competent company would not have made a car with such glaring flaws that low sales were as predictable as they were preventable. A company with integrity would address the complaints against the Camaro with a new model instead of discontinuing it.
 
But don’t worry. You’ll still be able to get a Camaro inspired Blazer in 2023.
 
 
@TundraArcticWolf  
Everyone compares the Challenger to the Mustang and Camaro but I feel the Challenger is in its own class. It’s like comparing two boxers to a sumo wrestler.
 
 
@GenericArchangel  
The Camaro is noteworthy for having amazing performance chops. The engine is terrific and it handles well. Technically it’s better than the Mustang. The Camaro can even compete with cars costing twice or three times as much. It’s let down by the rest of the package that makes it a terrible car to actually live with.
 
Like it or not, the Corvette needs to evolve to stay relevant. It is perceived as an old man’s car (Have you ever seen anyone under 50 driving a Corvette? I haven’t.) and does not appeal to the next generation. Better that Chevrolet try something new than let the Corvette become a washed up brand like Harley Davidson selling nostalgia to boomers. It’s the price increase I object to because there are already precious few sports cars attainable by regular people.
 
 
@mjangelvortex  
I knew a fairly tall woman who had a convertible Camaro. She said she always drove with the top down whenever she could because it felt too short with the top up.
 
 
@Badheart  
This is not the airplane thread.

@kleptomage  
Nah, if I have to get a small to mid-size SUV, I’ll take a Rav4, Highlander or 4Runner over the Blazer…mainly for reliability reasons.

I’m driving a Nissan Sentra with a CVT now. It isnt too bad. CVT is slow to react and does indeed feel like a rubber band. Can feel it stretching and sometimes pulling or lurching the car. Feels great on the highway though once the engine is above 3000 rpm
 

 
 
@TundraArcticWolf  
Challenger is the only real pony car remaining
 
 
@mjangelvortex  
Car cannot be fixed. I said my goodbye after returning from the hospital. It is in a salvage yard now. Very sad. I was looking at old pics from 2010 earlier

@RainbowDash69  
Is it a rental or did you buy it?

@RainbowDash69  
Sorry to hear you got stuck with a Nissan but it’s better than nothing.
