How Long Have You Owned Your Camaro
As the title says, i was curious as to how long everyone has owned theirs. As i have owned mine shortly after i joined the Marines. Some 14 years ago. So chime in and show your age!

Re: How Long Have You Owned Your Camaro
I bought my 92 in 1997 with about 67K miles on the clock. 13 years later, I still daily drive it and have racked up the miles to 243K.
My 89 was added in 2006 as a project and has seen some interior, suspension and brake upgrades with motor/tranny swap planned for sometime in the future

Re: How Long Have You Owned Your Camaro
I picked up my iroc on 11/6/1996 so I've had it for a little over 13 years. Got it off the used car lot of a chevy dealership. Its my 3rd thirdgen but my first iroc. I've had a base 89 rs with a 6 cylinder 5 speed(no options what so ever) and a 88 plain camaro with a 6 cylinder auto but with options and t-tops. Also had a 79 camaro berlinetta but thats a second gen.

Re: How Long Have You Owned Your Camaro
This is my 1st post.
Bought mine brand new July of 1992. It came with a dealer stripe package. Picture below of when I got it home (old pic) .
This was my last F-body I bought. Owned a '87 IROC-Z, '89 Formula 350, '91 Z28 and a '92 Z28 conv. for 3 months which was traded obviously for the one above...

Re: How Long Have You Owned Your Camaro
WOW I am really surprised with how long some of us has owned our thirdgens!
I'm on my 7th year of ownership in my car. I told the wife that when I die I want a special tomb built so the car can be my coffin. Just prop me up in the driver seat and call it good,lol

Re: How Long Have You Owned Your Camaro
4 years in December '10.
Driven-- 3 months last summer!!
I thought about gettin' burried in it ' cause it'll probly kill me some day, but ya know, t-tops have a history of little leaks, so by the time they covered us, with my luck, the tops would " leak " & leave a huge booty divot in the ground!! HAHA LOLol
