Rental this week is 2011 Camaro Convertible SS
Permalink  
 


Flew into Indianapolis today through Wednesday for work, and went to Avis for my rental, which was a Toyota Corolla (not too exiting). After I put all my stuff in it and went to start it and it was completely dead, would not do anything?  Unpacked all my stuff and went to the Preferred counter, let them know the problem and they offered me a 2011 Camaro Convertible SS Red with Black top. 

Should be a fun ride, as long as I don't get any ticketsnana

Met a guy at the Mermaid last night with a new SS Vert. Very nice car. I think it looks a lot better than the coupe. Can't wait to hear the war stories.

Dude!  That looks like way too much fun!  It's cool seeing your convertible in the avatar and the Camaro pics next to it!thumbsup

Hopefully you won't be selling the Chevelle soon to get a vert Camaro!

They gave me a choice of silver, yellow or red.

My wife would love to have one, but the Chevelle is not going anywhere, and I don't see room for a new one of those in the finances anywhere, or anytime soon?

Rachael is in the market to trade in her 07 Impala. Maybe she will consider the 2011 convertible. I always like the mid 90's Camaro SS Convertible (red with black top). Her only preference is an automatic.

This one is an automatic, it appears to be a 6 speed automatic?  If I run it through the gears manually (with the paddles on the wheel), it shows 1 up to 6?  I thought they were only a 5 speed automatic?

A lot of the car companies are going to 6 speed autos now.  It's in all my casting technology trade magazines regarding the trans housing castings in the industry (My job is Sourcing Supply Manager-Castings & Machinings for a major industrial company).
