Very nice! Noticed your looking forward to the Historical Licence plate also!
I have the same year. Wish I had the t-tops.

Yeah, the T-Tops are probably one of my most favorite things about this car. Nothing like cruising with the tops off.

Maybe that's why Chevy used it in this 1988 commercial. Check out the Camaro at :48 seconds.

I tend to not like a direct front shot of my car. That one looks pretty good though.

Hmm. Well, I don't have a picture exactly like that, but here's one that's close. I think it looks pretty good.

Re: Is it just me, or is this not one of the best camera angle shots of our cars?
I don´t mind front shots of the Camaro, provided they are taken at headlight level or even a bit lower. At eye level a shot from the front doesn´t look so nice.
I do like the rear of the Camaro as well. I prefer it over the Firebird actually.
The angle Puma picked isn´t really the best way to show how nice the back end of our Camaros look though. A 3/4´s angle would be better.
I agree btw, those skinnies on the back, even though they are stock I believe (215´s?) look a bit out of place. 235´s or 255´s would look more impressive.

Re: Is it just me, or is this not one of the best camera angle shots of our cars?
I do like this front shot of mine...
I like this angle too, but I think it would be better if I lowered the car an inch or so. Definitely something that's gonna happen eventually though

Re: Is it just me, or is this not one of the best camera angle shots of our cars?
It was the best for me until an hour ago when I let my mother of all people drive my car to get her hair done 1 mile up the road and she comes back saying she heard a noise, it was the front spoiler vs. a curb. I can't get mad @ my mom though, **** happens. I needed it repainted anyway.

Re: Is it just me, or is this not one of the best camera angle shots of our cars?
Now that looks like a cheesy grin! I also really like the angle tbh. Not the best angle but can't be the 'worst'. Not sure how crisp mine are.. look crisp in my phone album but not so much on the phones photobucket account.
Some of mine...

Re: Is it just me, or is this not one of the best camera angle shots of our cars?
GM doesn't make a current model that even comes close to the thirdgen Camaro in styling and looks. New cars are too high, wide, and bulky. No wonder they need 500bhp to be quick.
I like the 3/4 rear shots myself. Something about the tail lights...
