Jay Posted February 24, 2014 Author Posted February 24, 2014 So I drove down to S****horpe on Sat to pick up bumble bee and I have to say...... I'm in love lol. Its definitely everything I hoped for and more. The looks alone sold me the car but the actual ride is fantastic, so much space, plenty of noise when you give it beans and also a nice cruiser. I dont see this as a sports car at all as I am not going to be hooning it around the place or enjoying spirited drives like i did with the 50 and the 70. It is simply the perfect cruising car which has plenty of road presence and enough ponies under the hood to have a little fun with. Oh and it has 4 seats........ wohooo. The cabin is actually a nice place to be, feels modern yet with retro styling. The seats are extremely comfy and the 4 hour journey home was easy, I think the camaro and I will get along just fine. I will write up a more in-depth review once I have had her a while but also get up a wee video clip for you all. Yank Tank FTW 2 Quote
Stutopia Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 You sound well pleased, I think they're great cars from my short time in one, though the pacific coast highway may have influenced me... Quote
evilscorp Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Did you fly up the road? Seen a yellow one in Glasgow, hope st, Sat night 6-8pm (can't remember too drunk) sounded very nice, if it wasn't you then you ain't the only #$% in the village =p Quote
rabbitstew Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Nice car. Ive been toying with getting an american car for a while now. Nearly bought a supercharged stingray a few months back, until my sensible side said it probably wasnt the ideal car to leave parked outside my house..... Quote
Jay Posted February 24, 2014 Author Posted February 24, 2014 Did you fly up the road? Seen a yellow one in Glasgow, hope st, Sat night 6-8pm (can't remember too drunk) sounded very nice, if it wasn't you then you ain't the only #$% in the village =p That was me mate, was about 6ish.... just picking my wee cousins up from town. Still need to get my private regy on it. Quote
evilscorp Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Sounded very nice for a v6, better than the Z does. Don't know how I was still standing by 11pm, as I remember being pretty well on when you passed. Quote
Jay Posted February 24, 2014 Author Posted February 24, 2014 HAHA, yeh it does sound rather nice You should have given me the drunken wave or something lol. I will bring it to a meet and let you all have a wee nosey. Quote
Humpy Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Nice Jay Got any more pictures yet since picking her up? Quote

Bobbyheinz Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Congrats mate - very cool and the interior looks awesome. Get more pics up! Quote
Meeerrrk Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Congrats! My mate hired one exactly the same in the states and loved it, I'm sure you'll enjoy driving it, and that's all that matters Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
bronzee Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Very cool Jay. It had to be yellow for you, no quite sedate colours. One of my neighbours has this exact spec and colour, can spot him a mile off. Literally did on the motorway on Friday from almost 1km away could see him and knew who it was. Quote
Jay Posted March 3, 2014 Author Posted March 3, 2014 Haha thanks bronze! Really loving the car and all the toys it has. The old owner fitted it with a beautiful sounding exhaust so I am being a little heavy footed at the moment. Only thing I may add is a few bonnet spear decals and lower bumper wrapped black to give it a zl1 look. Quote
LRF4N Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Bronzee how straight must your motorways be if you can see a car at that distance! Certainly is a head turner tho jay- my older sister took a photo of it last week to show my nephew. She's never taken a photo of a car before lol Quote
Jay Posted March 3, 2014 Author Posted March 3, 2014 LOL classic Irfan. You know you can bring your nephew round whenever if he likes the car. You've still to come see the car in the flesh. Quote
LRF4N Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 I know mate been hectic lately but yea il defo bring him to see it. Should've seen his face light up when I told him lol he's only 6 Quote
