Hope that Camaro isn't an auto or get used to shotty transmissions that slip and dump the car into gear at 3000+ rpm, leaving you with no traction in the winter.
p.s. What happened to the Mustang? I liked it and might have bought it off ya if the price was right.

Yes 10v, 20v didn't come in till 1990, I prefer the 10v to the 20v, it sounds better, more 'Raw'.

Epic really. I thought my Mustang was fast and sounded good.....Haha, it makes the mustang feel like an old economy car!Oh yay you bought the Camaro! Welcome to the General's army!What's it like stepping directly from a Mustang (albeit older) into a Camaro?
T56 6speed with a short shifter and poly bushings. This car has a lot done to suspension as well. Last owner embarassed a few newer corvettes with this thing at some autocrosses.
The owner of the Camaro wanted a fox, so we traded. Although I had to add cash on my side to make it fair haha.
PS, long tube headers with no cats and a 3 inch exhaust equals heaven.

How are you running long tube headers with no cats in Ontario? I'm calling BS on whatever E-test you had done.
I gots the connections haha.

Just realised that I've never posted a picture of my car in here.
This was taken at Crater Lake in September of last year, a little overblown as it was taken directly into the sun, but couldn't miss out on recording the spectacular view.

Figured I'd post up what I was driving before the quattro:
1959 VW 'Lowlight' karmann Ghia (known as The Zombie)
I miss it

Is that an sc?
If so, how reliable are they? I saw one for sale at 14k that has a lot of miles but the listing states that it works perfectly and if my memory serves well that it has a rebuild. It's a 78'.
By the way great car, the targa is not my favorite, but awesome car nonetheless

Yeah, it's an '81 SC.
It's unknown 'real' mileage, but it's somewhere between 150 & 180K (it had an odometer swap when it reached around 104K, but it got a used odometer installed as the CarFax report shows a 104K service followed by a 33K service about 9 months later, and it's believed the "new" odometer was taken with some miles on from a wrecked donor car as 33K in 9 months seems unusual for a 911, and on worst-case scenario, 180K for a 30 year old car = ~6000 miles per year average which is hardly excessive! I currently have it insured for <5000 miles per year.) Aside from having the gearbox rebuilt (knew it was needed when we bought it, so budgeted for too) it works really well and on the trip we took that picture on it did 2300 miles in 17 days (averaged 23mpg too even though driven hard and only ate 2 quarts of oil which is about usual for an older 3.0 B6 engine with a 12.7quart capacity! It's reckoned on about 1 quart per 1000 miles!) and had only minor issues related to the fact that it really needed a new starter motor, which has since been installed. (Basically it'd start & run perfectly when cold, but if it was shut off briefly, e.g. for a 1/2hr lunch break after 4 hrs of hard driving, it'd refuse to engage the starter motor due to the engine being warm!) Not a problem as we learned to park on a minor slope, and since there's very little drivetrain loss as the engine & driving wheels are practically on top of each other, it bump started without much hassle, or take breaks when we knew we'd be hiking for 2 or 3 hours which gave the engine plenty of time to cool and the starter to re-engage properly.
Nowadays with new starter it's no problem, although the Targa top leaks a little around the window seals, but since it's not a daily driver and is garaged, that's not an issue as I can basically ensure it doesn't go out in the rain anyway.

No, sold it back in January, even though I made a good chunk of change on it, I wish I still had it

I like the wheels. They really go good with overall look and feel of the car.
