Why the RS is great

Here is a short list of things I can think of that make us RS drivers sooo damn cool.

1. Camaro RS with a few upgrades can usually outwit even some of the more peppy rice burning 4 bangers.

2. Can we say insurance savings?

3. 23mpg is cool.

4. People always mistook my RS for a V8 with the flow master I had on it... (all the bark with a little less bite )

5. Its a Camaro...Not a mustang.

6. More under the hood room.

7. 0-60's can be quite impressive if you sacrifice top end.

8. Chicks can't tell the difference.

9. Cops cant either.

umm...I've ran out of ideas,someone help me.

Women maybe can't tell the difference, but they do like Camaros...not Mustangs. I like women

Yeah, this board is a little unstable sometimes But hey, come on and crash, its an absolute blast, and is completely addicting. I'm on here probably at least 2 hrs a day, between the V6/Car Audio/History and Restoration boards.

And yes, my 600th post Granted, Tom has like 2000+ and he joined only a month before me...guess I ain't gonna catch up though

This board is the best out there. Without it, (and Tom's message board) I never would have done any of the performance mods to my car that I did. The best advice you can get it all right here.

Why do you think they invented tilt? I mean, you don't always want to move to the passenger seat......

I wouldn't mind having 6 hot chix in mini skirts in the backseat of my Camaro. And I thought it was tough fitting 4 people in the car, let alone 6 in the backseats.

Hey, I dont have an RS, but Ill tell ya the main reason why all F-Bodies are great....T-TOPS!!!! Chicks love T-tops for some reason!!!

As far as the girls in the car, me and a buddy managed to tuck 4 ***** into the backseat one night..lets just say the 2.8 was kinda laggin up the big hills (with over 700 lbs worth of passengers in the car, i can see why)!
