Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!
If you have any problems with the registration process or your account login, please contact us!
A Lotus Elise? A Viper? Don't know if they should be in this class but we'll cut 'em some slack...
Ford GTX...oooh, very nice.
A Deronda? Now we're letting essentially kit cars into Meadowbrook? Well, at least it's fast...
Wait a minute...WTF is a Volkswagen doing there? All you need is wheels and tint and you're in Meadowbrook now? So much for exclusivity and rarity. This is supposed to be Meadowbrook, not SEMA...
OK...rant off...lol...

I think it is because I take it in and out all the time, the rubber has just stretched out, especially at the bottom where it is really thin. It annoys me more then anything.

This wasn't the actual show, Cauley Maserati/Ferrari in West Bloomfield had a display set up on the side of the mansion aside from the show with these on display. I had no clue about the VW either, but the Viper was pretty damn sexy and the Exige I have to let slide because it is one of my favorite cars of all time...Its probably going to be my next car once I get sick of the GTO and want something better on gas

Alright, that makes more sense.
They still could've left the VW at home...

u know why that vw is in there is cuz its a 650 hp awd monster
Still a VW...that's like putting a 650 hp Cobalt in that class...
Yeah, you can do it, but why?

buy why b/c it'll still run a 11 some odd second 1/4 mile and handle like a dream, some people think that these don;t ride like our cars do but i actually am pretty positive my jetta would out handle the camaro anyday

MmmK...you're making several assumptions there, but we won't dispute that.
The facts of the case is that car likely took $60K or more to produce.
And it's a VW.
It's not a performance platform. This was built to satisfy somebody's individual passion for a car.
Will it handle/perform like a truely dedicated performance platform would?
No.
If you took a WRX STI, a 4th gen Camaro, a 20 year old Corvette, an aging Porsche 930, and dumped sixty large into it, what would you have?
A better car.
In every aspect.
Period.
It just doesn't belong with all the other thoroughbreds around it.
And a poor choice for a Meadowbrook event.
I'm not disputing it may be a great handling car.
But it's like making a Corvair go fast...can you do it?
Sure.
But why spend the money when other platforms are more receptive to the modifications?
Because somebody out there loves a VW...that's why.
