I was leaving my house last year a couple days after getting my car and a neighbor I never met before yelled "I love your car". Another time I was going down a back road, there was someone holding a rake, just staring at the car as it approached. Before I went by the house they gave me a big thumbs up.

When I bought this car it was never about the attention, but it can sure be fun.

Was at a stop light the other day and this black gentleman motions for me to roll down the passanger side window. He says, " You don't drive that in the winter, do you?" I say "Heh heh , no." He says, " That's one pretty Mother F*#ker!" Then my 6 year old son pokes his head up from the back seat. You should of seen the look on the huys face, LOL. He said " I'm sorry! I didn't know you had a kid in the car." I say " It's all good man, thanks!"

I still get all kinds of compliments also. Most fun I ever had with a car! Thanks GM!

My car's actually been good for business. I always park at the same place in front of my store, and it's basically a big "I'm in" sign. Clients will come in all the time saying "we noticed you were working today..."

I've also had parents walk into the store all the way in the back (I'm a pharmacist) with their kids just because the kids wanted to compliment my car. Once a minivan caught up with me and the kids were pointing will the mom (passenger side, fortunately!) was taking pictures!!!

Boy, did he know what I needed to hear or what?

He said, "maybe I will"

Can't believe this Camaro still attracts so much attention after 2 years on the road!!!

It never 'gets old' to me!!!

I have to pinch myself everyday, because I cannot believe I own such an amazingly awesome vehicle!!!

That is all...carry on with your Camaro5 viewing and posting!!!



Yep.... today while I was filling up at the gas station, I got a smile when a guy yelled from his moving car "Nice Car Bro!"

Blue Angel still turns heads everywhere I go. Even now people will sometimes follow me into the gas station and pull up alongside to compliment the car. For some reason around here, people who drive Hyundai's and Nissan Altima's feel like they have to floor it off the light when they're sitting next to me at a signal and it turns green lol. I just let them waste their gas...the sound of Blue Angel alone is enough to say "nuff said" hehehe.

The other day I had to jump on it to merge onto the freeway coming out of a tight onramp and the sound under the underpass was seriously awesome...in the words of Han Solo "sometimes I even amaze myself".

Got v6 rental in orange county airport about a year ago, jumped on I-5 and went to San Diego.... people were hanging out of their cars taking pix on their cam phones. I think every tuner in Cali tried to pass me!!!! Then the hotel parking attendants got into a fist fight to park the car.... I told the guy to get on it a little, its a rental!!! After 2 days of buisness my wife and I drove to San Fran.... The trip was several hours but we got no less than 20 thumbs up. IF YOU HAVE A SS... don't think the v6 is a punk biotch!!! it really did ok in my book. FAST FORWARD TO PRESENT- I now have black ss with white stripes & it-turns heads like a naked hooker!!!!
