It was a special press night where we (some Camaro enthusiasts on various message boards) all signed up to go I think the day before the public got to go to the show. We were asked to dress up, and those pictures were taken when virtually everybody else had left.

It was great being there when virtually nobody else was! I got to sit in all sorts of cars they normally don't let you in. Unfortunately the Ferraris were off limits, but I still got in some cool cars like the Lotus Elise and the Viper(s)


That Lotus was really hard to get in and out of... worse than a C4 Corvette, and REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE!

 

Didn't Dustin (DWray) and Steven (stars1010) do something like this a few years ago? I just remember them being dressed up for the Dallas Auto Show

 

I'm not familiar with them, but I did go to both special early events for 2006 and 2007.

 

me = jealous

 

If any of you guys ever hear about events like these on message boards, I highly recommend them! Here are some pictures from the 2006 event. It was really cool, because GM brought two Berger Camaro SSes to the event!

Since nobody was around, we were able to get up close and personal with this Saleen S7 Twin Turbo!


Wasn't able to get too close to the Shelby GR-1, but it was there

So you've got the Camaro watch too, huh?

 

You have a very keen eye....!

Did I just say "keen?" LOL

 

Well I've been looking at the same one on my wrist for about three years now so it kinda stands out to me.

 

Stefan not Steven

And yes, Scott put on a Camaro get-together at the Dallas Auto show in 2006 right after the first concept was unveiled. It was a great night; GM catered in food and had an open bar. Everyone got to talk to the GM reps and Scott to give feedback. We also had free range on the entire auto show with out 10,000 people from the public there.

We didnt get to sit in the car though I guess It was a bit more protected back then.

 

We were right next to each other and didnt even know it

I'll post some pics of Dustin and myself from that night when I get home from work tonight.

 

Yeah, I might recognize you. I could always use more Camaro friends in DFW

 

I can't believe they let a left-handed Texan sit in the car!

 

LOL! That's a comment I didn't expect to read. What makes you think I'm left handed?!

 

1000 apologies

They were the odd couple, the jolly green giant and a curly-haired guy standing at about Stefan's belly button

 

Yeah, I noticed it too. I'm guilty of the same...
