ok so im just siting watching tv and on comes one of those comercials telling people not to smoke pot because u could loose more than ur life and it then there where people burning thing like there guitar and deploma and then the one that pissed me off some one was burning a prefect third gen camaro and it was like onley 2 seconds of the comercial and i think its sucks that people would wast a beautfull car just 4 a couple seconds of a stupid comercial

 

Oh well, I'd take it as a compliment - smoke pot and you might lose your third-gen - means it's something special

 

yeah i saw that commercial too

 

lol i saw that commercial too

that aggravated me , just like the the jerk offs at fear factor who for the most part destroy camaros

 

ya thats the problem i have with a lot of tv shows and movies when ever they have a little part where a car gets wrecked they use a third gen camaro its suck a wast use a car no one likes they schould use like hondas or kias no one likes those

 

lol my thoughts exactly..but it still aggrivates me. I think it was war of the worlds there was one in the backgroun that got destroyed. Might have been a different move but I think thats what it was.

 

just makes ours go up in value guys. Its pretty fked up to destroy a thirdgen but they're only gonna get rarer

 

thats a very good point

 

i suppose, it's just like when the beat up ones take a crap and get sent to the boneyard

 

yea but some of those valuable parts are going to waste .
like if its in a movie you know thier is always more then of the same car getting destroyed for a scene,

example the black super charged charger in the fast and the furious or the the 1st gen "yenko" camaro in the the second f&f.

or the cheville in War

and these are to name a few.

 

ya there thats what i hate about movies theres to meany great car dieing 4 them

 

This really doesn't have anything to do with Third Gens being destroyed, but one thing that gets me is how most of them have seemed to have dissapeared over night.

I remember back when I got my first Camaro when I was in high school back in '94 there were literally tons of them around. Heck, the Chevy dealer in my town still had used ones on the lot for sale! Granted most of the ones I remember seeing were the '91-'92 body style, but I still recall seeing alot of Iroc's and mid 80's Z28's too.
I worked at a grocery store while in high school and there were 4 or 5 of us that all owned third gens. Then all of a sudden they seemed to have dropped off the face of the earth. Maybe it's not like that where you guys live, but it is here.

Last summer I had my car out and I was driving through town and there was a little kid, probably about 8 or 9 walking with his mom and as I passed by he stopped and pointed at my car. You would have thought I was driving a Viper or something by the way he acted. Then I happened to think, "well, as young as he is this could be the first time he's ever seen one of these cars."

It's like that with the 5.0 Mustang GT's from the late 80's early 90's. I may see one every once in a blue moon. It's kind of sad that all these cars we grew up with are slowly fading away.

 

ya there relly starting to disseaper (not like i really rember when the where really popular cause i have a 92 camaro and its still a year older than i am but i remember back when i was like 6 or 7 my parents and all of there friends had third gens and my uncle always had like 5 thats probley y i like them so much)but now i think there startin to dissaper cause most of them end up twisted around a tree

 

my favorite thirdgen Ive ever seen get wrecked in a tv show is walker texas ranger (I think). anyways, the guys driving a 4th gen, then he has to jump it so they switch it to a thirdgen real quick, then after the jump they switch it back to a 4th gen. it was pretty funny.

 

thats sad the killed a third gen to save a 4th gen

also right now im watching the movie the marrine and there was this crazy chase with a 4th gen camaro police car and who knows how meany cars they killed for that part of the movie cause it was crazy
