Killer looking car (i love Kona) and welcome to TMS!

Thanks! I really like the stone interior. I wanted to kinda have a car that gave off the classic look of a '64 (the year I was born) with the badging and color. I had looked around at 10 different dealerships until I finally found the only one here in Atlanta that had the Stone. To me, the lighter Stone interior contrasts the darker blue exterior and matches the wheels and side stripe perfectly. I also went with the Pony Package just for the classic badges, wheels and front grill emblem.

I have nothing but good things to say about the new and improved 305hp V6. It is probably the most well balanced car I have ever driven. I have owned 3 different older V8 Camaro's in the past ('81 Z28, '88 IrocZ, "89 RS V8) and this car is just as fast, if not faster in every aspect as all of them.
When I went on the test drive and my salesman said "Punch It, Chewie", I was a little apprehensive. As soon as I did, it reminded me of a GT I had driven a couple of years ago. Almost had the exact same sound. I also found that I was pushing the brake way sooner than expect because I was coming up on a red light alot faster than anticipated. The salesman was sitting there laughing and saying "Told Ya'". I made a right turn to the highway and hit 60mph in what seemed like around 5 seconds.
By the way, I traded in a 2010 Nissan 370Z on this car with no regrets.
