New Camaro owner

First time Camaro owner...I've come over to the dark side after loving Mustangs for most of my life :-)

Picking up my 1997 Camaro SS sometime this week (hopefully wednesday) and was just surfing around for a decent web group for info and ofcourse comedic value that web groups always seem to bring.

No pics to share YET...but it's black, 6 speed, IIRC #1499 with T tops

All runs fine, but might look to upgrade/change the clutch within the year...so looks like I'm off to do some searching. If any of ya'll are in the Northern VA area would be cool to talk shop sometime!

Welcome to the world of Camaros! I live in Culpeper County, VA which is not THAT far away. Although, I did once consider taking a job in Woodbridge until I did a test run of my morning commute No way, Jose.

Anyway, post a pic of your car when you can.
