C7's Everywhere

They have invaded the streets of Omaha. On my 8-mile drive home from work yesterday, I saw 2 black ones, 2 grey ones, and 1 blue one, just driving on the streets. At my local Cars 'n' Coffee, each week there have been no less than 3 of them in attendance.

The commonality is reducing the "cool" factor. I guess it'll be a Z06 or nothing, when I decide to make a change. How are things in your area?

I don't understand how its "cool factor" is reduced just because sales are high.

Haven't seen one yet. Guess that means the cool factor is still high in my neck of the woods.

Well Fen thats the mentality I have noticed around here, they want Camaro's because "mustangs are everywhere" But are stoaked when Camaro outsells Mustang lol.

I see one every few days around here, they are cool and always will be, I still notice any gen Corvette and every gen Camaro, they are all cool in my book no matter if I see 1 or 100 a day.
