Drug Users...

Hi ALL...just like most, if not all, I also park my car so far away or away from the other cars. In doing so, about 70% of the time, another car would park parallel to me and the driver or whoever's in that car would just stay in the car. I think, but I could be wrong, that they want to sell me drugs. My camaro is black. And today, as was I parked away from the rest and doing some quick paperwork in my car, I was surprised that a van appeared besides me as in they wanted to talk to me. When I looked up, the driver simply gave me a thumbs up. Also, as I was cruising around, this guy was pointing at my car. All in all, they're all compliments to me!!!

I agree

This car garners so much attention. People respond as if you have a Lamborghini or something. But everyone is very friendly and usually give a thumbs up or tell you it's hot.
I totally didn't expected all of this while having this car. It's my first car so it's all a bit to take in at once.

But then again I remember how gaga I went over this yellow LS I saw last summer parked near my job I literally lost it and stayed around gawking at it for about 15 minutes.

It happened in different places. My windows aren't tinted, at least not yet. I don't do drugs...

Somebody parks close to you and immediately think they are drug dealers? I don't think their business is hurting so bad that they have solicit drugs, car to car, at the local Walmart parking lot.

Are people on this site so stuck on themselves and these cars that they think the world revolves around this machine. These things happen all the time, no matter what you are driving. I've got the same car and I've never had anything that i've read on this forum ever come close to happening to me. Either most of these post are lies or I just happen to live in a community where no one puts a tag on material items. It's a great car, but it is not going to change your life or who pays attention to you. Plus I'm quite sure drug dealers are not going to be interested in a 2LT.

I went to fill the tank after a brief spirited drive tonight. I got stuck at the gas station for at least 20 minutes, while people checked out my car and took pics. It happens all the time for me.

Obviously you've never worked retail.
