Camaro SS in Qld

Yesterday i stopped by the Service Centre at Yatala to grab a coffee, as i pulled in there was a Camaro SS parked wearing dealer plates in left hand drive. This Car in person is a stunning beast.

It has a dealer plate on it so it may be going to be converted to RHD.

That has to be a striking car to see on the road Down Under.

When I was in Sydney Corvettes looked downright exotic.

You them on the road here in Melbourne occasionally as they were developed in Melbourne and the test track is nearby. Haven't seen one for about a month now though.

Re: Camaro SS in Qld

I supposed I didn't need to guess it would be yellow and black. maybe I would have preferred black with yellow.
