So in a few weeks;
Is the biggest East Coast cruise. Cruisin OCMD, and i have a "1st world" dilema...
Which car do I take? Keep in mind I have been going for 13 years. 11 of those years I have taken the camaro, from stock to its current status.
So here are the choices, with unobvious to the public, pros and cons.
Choice #1; 1996 Camaro Z28. My most powerful toy. Lots of fun amongst the modified cars cruising. I even had the GLORY HOLE created for OCMD specifically. (The redirect of the BOV keeps the car from blowing sand all over the meticulously detailed motor compartment).
Choice #2; 1994 Trans Am GT. Basically stock, other than exhaust... gears... trans with stall and of course all of the cosmetic mods. Its automatic, so the wife can take it out if necessary... but here is the thing. She says the passenger side is not comfy for road trips. She claims the dash encroaches on her space more than the camaro.
It also has lots of cool orange LEDS that would look cool cruising after dark.
Choice #3; 1996 Impala SS. My most recent aquisition, and I am not 100% sure how she would do on the road trip and abuse of stop and go traffic. Modified engine makes 367rwhp and I just spent a bunch of money having it "paint corrected" as well as detailed, partial vinyl wrap, tint, misc. The wife who was never a fan of the "old man car" is now for it, since its been prettied up. She also likes the spaciousness of the interior.
All three have AC... and in the end its my choice, not hers, and she will deal with whatever I choose...
Thank You in advance...

Supporting MemberImpy ftw. I set the idle higher to compensate for the cam in stop and go traffic. Most she will get is a little surgy which you can quickly negate with a short wot smack making people go "oh hey holy **** that boat moved"
