Default Is it wrong of me to still love Iroc Z's?
Even after all these years, I still find these cars sexy as hell. Detroit Speed did one up, and man, that sucker is bad ass. I want one in this color to this day.

Is it wrong? This answer is inversely related to your willingness to wear a mullet.

I had a Formula in almost that color. (might have been the same, but I think the Pontiac version was a tick lighter).

They were cool cars. More comfy on long trips than anything produced today. Ride wasn't superior, but the seats were.

I always liked the looks of the Firebirds better.

I would have to get the wig. Is that cheating?

I like the F bodies; kind of the last blast from the muscle-car era.

I love 'em. Camaros have always been my favorite cars. So far I have had fourteen from a '69 to a '91. If I run across the right one I will have another!

It's not wrong to like those cars and you don't have to have a mullet to own one. Had a couple of friends that had IROC-Z'S and they didn't have mullets. I had a 89 GTA Trans Am and I didn't havr a mullet. Kind of wish I had that car back.

I haven't liked Camaros since 3rd gens. I've tried to warm up to them, but just can't do it. Guess I'll stick with my '69, but I can see an Iroc down the road. Obviously stock, they won't get out of their own way, but hell, back in the 80's, I would have mortgaged my grandparents for one!! A dude I went to college with had a brand new one. This dude had a Billy Ray Cyrus approved mullet too.

I had 2 Formula Firebirds in the 80's, a Formula and Formula 350, both with manuals. I loved those cars.
