You know you drive a Camaro....

I couldn't find another thread like this (maybe in the older generation sites?!), but most sites I was a member of had a similar thread, something that is unique to Camaro ownership. Below are my examples.

...when every time you see a Charger/Challenger/Mustang you think they threw a rev at you.

...when you look at gas station prices from every gas station even after just having filled up at another station.

...when you sometimes fancy the thought of going to Ikea in the Camaro just for grins.

...when you realize that your accelerator pedal makes it easier to live with the poor outward visibility.

...when your bank statement has more debits from auto performance parts stores than grocery stores.

I m actually worried that the car takes too much attention and is very attractive. I took my satin steel 22 2ss 1le to a grocery store the other day and everyone was staring at the car. Once i parked and looked back, the damn gorgeous thing with that beautiful color and red Brembos, no wonder why

...when you painstakingly back into a parking spot every time, far from any other car, and you make sure you have enough space to open those long, beautiful doors
