Current Inventory of Camaro's at Milton Ruben Superstore:

Camaro fanboys and fangirls, you've waited long enough. For seven years, since its demise in 2002, you've been pining for your beloved pony, the Chevy Camaro. Through it all, you've suffered the heartache of loss, the tease of comeback buzz, the frustration of rumors and misinformation, and, finally, the bittersweet agony of anticipation.


Your patience, boys and girls, has been rewarded. Big-time. In fact, let's just cut open the award envelope right now. The Oscar for Best Fulfillment of Ponycar Hopes & Dreams goes to...Chevrolet [standing ovation, cheers, applause, whoops and hollering, delirious tears]. "You like me! You like me! You really like me!" Yes, reborn 2010 Camaro, we do. An awful lot. (Sorry, but we're going to plant the kiss on Halle Berry anyway.)


Chevrolet knew all-too-well the stakes in resurrecting the model whose admirers rank second only to the Corvette's in ardor and outright fanaticism. Doing the Camaro wrong would carry consequences akin to unveiling a new Lincoln Memorial with Honest Abe sporting a marble-chiseled mullet. We're talking torch-wielding, stone-throwing mobs here. Indeed, Chevy risked firing a cannonball right into the heart of its own corporate ship, such would have been the collateral damage of a misguided Camaro launch.


Yet nothing of the sort has occurred. Instead, Chevrolet has pulled off a near-masterstroke. The new Camaro excels by almost every objective and subjective measure: design, power, handling, efficiency, comfort, convenience, safety, and, perhaps most important of all, accessibility to the Camaro faithful. Sure, it would've been news enough if Chevy had simply built an A-plus Camaro, but that would've mattered little if it'd been priced out of the reach of us paycheck-by-paycheck mortals. The headline news: The new, fifth-generation Camaro delivers on all fronts. Base price for the V-6 edition is just $22,995 -- and that car is by no means a rental-fleet special (more on that in a moment). A nicely outfitted, fire-breathing, V-8-powered Camaro SS can be yours for around $35K. Go ahead, cry some more joyful tears.
