He has a few cars that he alternates driving but the new VR SS was here in all it's glory. It's always fun to run out and see what he drove in that day.

Nice to see Mr. Leno driving a Camaro. Do you really work there or these pictures taken from somewhere?

So Jay didn't pony up for the RS package?? I bet that is a GM press car that he's been given to drive.

Yes, I really do work at NBC. Once in a while I work on Leno but I also work on other NBC shows.

GM is constantly giving Jay cars. This one may be a loaner until his actual car is ready.

I actually been to Leno's garage and when i was there. I was talking to him. He was telling me that many of GM concepts are work from his shop and when i there. They were working on a two door coupe Cadillac, which i thing some of you have seen on motor trend or car and drive not sure which one post it up on there future vehicles..

I don't have the words to express how awesome Jay Leno is.

Do you ever see him driving his 4th gens? In several of the shots from his garage over the years, I've seen lurking in the background one or maybe 2-3 Navy Blue Metallic LS1 F-Bodies - looked like Firebird Formulas.

I've seen him drive lots of different cars in over the years but never seen him drive a 4th gen unfortunately. Maybe he has and I wasn't around that day. I see lots of his Corvettes though.

If you don't mind me asking, what do you do there?

Sorry for going off topic.

km9v,

I have had 6 Camaro's in the past but I do not currently have one. My last Camaro was a '00 SS that I ordered and was my baby. I had countless layers of Zaino and it really showed. I also had some custom paint on the rear valance and a few other things. It was very hard to let it go.

I have been watching the new Camaro very closely and I am getting antsy looking at all of them being delivered. My initial plan was to wait for the Z28 to make an appearance. I guess now i will wait until I see what SLP, Tom Henry and the other guys do with the car before I jump in and buy one.

Here are a couple pics of my SS.





72 Z27,

I am a Camera operator and a Sound mixer. I also work on other projects such as documentaries and reality once in a while.
