I used to see 1 almost every day on my way home from work, it was a Firebird. It said sheriffs car on the side, with the same female officer driving it all the time. Usually I'd see it hiding off to the side of the road in around the same area. Then one day I saw her tearing *** after someone as she banged a u-ee. Sadly though about 6 months after that, one day on my way home I saw it in about the same area on a flatbed. No, it didn't just break down it was all smashed up. I didn't see the crash though.

there was a Modonna video that MTV won't show but it's got her cruising in a 70's Camaro or Firebird. It was a yellow one.

Third Gens have been in so much stuff. Over at TGO we can't even name it all.

Yeah, the levi 1 is running now, very cool. Its a 68 Camaro. I've also seen the Madonna video I think its a yellow firebird. That is the kind of stuff F-bodies needed. Ford did a very smart thing with the focus, they were giving them away to any tuner who wanted 1. When & if the f-body comes back Chevy should do the same, there is so much in the aftermarket for these things its not even funny. Let the tuners get a jump on things, and give them up right away. 70,000 cars with zero advertising, just imagine what they could have sold if they put in any effort (advertising dough). SLP should be given several examples to work with. Hey, maybe even solicit some musicians who are looking for cars for videos. "Rollin' in my 5.7" O.K. now I'm rambling someone stop me!

Here ya go, James Hetfield of Metallica drove an all black 1st gen Camaro in their "I Disappear" Mission Impossible video. The sequence involving the Camaro was a reinactment of a classic Mustang scene, that of Bullitt in the streets of San Francisco.

This linked story details the gang hanging out at an NHRA dragstrip with other classic GM cars.

If I'm not mistaken, Metallica also featured a Camaro (as well as other GM cars) in their "Fuel" video.

That's right, and they sold pretty good until about 1990. It's funny how some of the worst yrs. for performance, were also some of the best yrs. for sales. 1st gens excluded of course. It has more to do with the cars exposure than it does what is under the hood.The later 2nd gens were not the performance giants of the 1st gens but out sold them in some yrs. I remember them in all the mags ( late 2nd & 3rd gens).

There was more to it than just that. And the the LB9 5-Speed G92 and L98 cars were good years for performance. Performance kept getting better starting from then, then the LT1, than the LS1 and so on. The only reason 90 didn't sell good was because it was a half production year.

I actually like them better its when they started getting good. Again and people didn't buy them. And then in 93 they got really good (IMO), and sales droped! , By this time the "Red neck, Mullethead, Italian Retard Out Cruisin" stereotype had taken hold, and the car that was once known as the me-too car(anyone remember that?) is avoided like the plague by the masses. Lest anyone be offended, I am Italian, and I had a Mullet for a spell there, but I'm better now. Oh, and I consider myself a Redneck as I preffer the country over the city anyday
