Yes on 1-5, haven't had 6 happen yet.
Tonight tho- I had 1 person at a light yell "I love your car", another at the resteraunt yell "Nice car", and yet another (same resteraunt) walk out to take a picture in front of my car. Not to mention everyone on the outside patio turn to watch as I drove buy... gotta love it! (whens the last time a Mustang pulled this kind of attention????lol)

Talking to a lady friend outside as we leave our work plant, while talking work stuff, she suddenly looks over my shoulder, says "I want that car; I need that car". We finish our talk, I walk over to the Camaro where my fiance is sitting waiting for me...and my worker friend see's me getting in it and yells "If I known that was yours I would have kicked you".

It's happening to my wife quite a bit. But also, to the best of my knowledge, hers is the only vert in town so far...

The best is at the gas pumps, when folks stop in the middle of pumping to come over and take pictures. I had one young Airman on base ask if he could sit in it while I gassed up! Like I said previously, I feel like I'm in a parade everytime I drive to the store!

Same thing happens with our convertible.
Sadly, the exact same thing used to happen with our '10 coupe, but now they are so common in Houston that they don't get a second look most of the time. In time, the verts will be everywhere too, so enjoy your mini-celebrity status while it lasts.

I went out to the local lake yesterday evening to take some pics of the car. There was a guy and his wife biking. as I was idling in, I could see the stunned looks on their faces. the guy almost fell off his bike into his wife. But yea, I'm getting a lot of thumbs up and high praise for this car as well. I've still got a smile on my face every time I take her out on the road.

Yep happens all the time! My wife had a lady and her younger teenage daughter follow her out of the mall and asked if she could take pictures of them standing next to it and the daughter wanted to sit in it. And you right joggers, people at lights etc. are always breaking there neck to get a look. Gotta love it!!!

"ESS" arrived in Douglas on 08/28/09. There was a car show on Saturday but I had to work. My wife and I cruised over before it was over. This was the first one in Douglas. People took pictures like crazy. On Monday my niece texted me that kids in school were forwarding pictures on their phones. She asked me if the red Camaro was mine.
Driving on Kolb Rd a few weeks later, we were behind a school bus and every kid in the bus was glued to the windows taking pictures |

I was at walmart once. Got the groceries put in the car and was about to leave and my wife pointed out to me that there were about 4 or 5 little kids just hopped out of a van were taking pictures and waving..! Good times.
