I have a sister that is sooo cheap, she only buys KIA's because they are cheap. Whenever I get a new car, my nephews are all over it because of the coolness factor. I can't wait to pull up in my Camaro and watch them #%$@ purple twinkies when they see it.

I refer to it as a muscle car. To me "Pony Car" denotes the Mustang. I have a friend who says it's not a 'sports car' because it seats more than 2. Personally, I'd say it's more of a GT car, but whatevz.

well I had one dumb things said moments, while at the chevy dealership me and my sib decided to check out the ZL1 in the showroom. So we looked and I blurted out, it looks like a dodge. If it weren't for my handicapable status, I think my sib would have run away in shame.

I was at the gas station the others day and some red neck comes up to me and says "yours is a SS right" I says yea its the SS. He says," yea I like them camaros" I said yea I really like mine. Then he tells me that he had test drove a SS about a week ago he said that the one he test drove was a 2012 SS. I said cool did you like it? He said yea I loved it and that it was really fast. Then he said that it was a 3 speed manual and that It had a 454 big block in it . So I just looked at him for a sec and said really? Then I just got in the car and left.

I went out to Hooters with my wife and a few other couples one Saturday night and we all pull up together. I get inside and get seated and here comes the waiter. She looks out the window at my car and says,"Is that your car out there?" I told her it was then she asks me 'Who blessed me with it' meaning she thought I was too young to own and afford this apparently $80,000 sports car we all drive. I looked around at my friends and gave them a "wth" look. Anyway I told her I bought it. Foot in mouth. Needless to say she was embarassed.

I parked next to a guy drying his Subaru. I started to do the same; a few minutes the other guys says "nice car; what is it?"

Me - "just an SS Camaro"

Him - "cool, does it have a Hemi?"

It took me a moment to register the question and all I could answer was "yes."

At a stoplight:
Him: Hey, Im not a big fan, Im a Ford guy, but I like the look of the SS better than the V6.
Me: Oh yeah? (Looking at him all confused)
Light turns green, he pulls off and it turns out... he's driving a Chevy

To which I replied, "It's built in Canada."

"Yeah well. It was designed in America."

"It was designed in Australia."

"Well the money goes to an American company."
