They are suppose to make that car a reality though arent they? I like it much better than the Retro Chargers.

My truck hasn’t been so shine since I got it two years ago. I should have taken pictures hehehe.

I think I was the only one with a Pittspeed shirt there. I probably would have said hi to more of you if I knew who you all are. I was with solow, adam, laura, my buddy joe, and my girl. Finally met slowcamaro for like 2 minutes. lol I agree, we need to all plan to meet up next time.

alot of doubt over if it was even a real car, but a quick look under the ass end verified it was indeed the 2004 Pontiac GTO that Saleen converted to the Camaro for the movie.

it does, it was a one off car built by Saleen, they used a 04 GTO as a donor car, since the wheel base is so close to the camaros

GM provided the Body panels from the 09 camaro concept to Saleen.

it still has the entire LS1 drivetrain

the wheels were fake hubcaps with the rotors, covering the stock 04 GTO brakes

its been on the net since way before the movie came out, that it had wheels covers and wasnt the actual camaro. regardless, i still was glad i got to see it. i knew about all the fake stuff goin in to it, so maybe thats why i wasnt as dissappointed as some. regardless, i didnt see anyone from pittspeed there and i was there for 2 hours. lol.

i think i mightve seen 85Trans Am leaving though.
