Angie...you parked next to me at a show. That up'd the value of your car by 100 grand.

And once again, I hear .


Stories like these always make me .

Someone who wins the lottery is NOT going to buy a Camaro. Reactions like that are reserved for Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, McLaren's, and other true exotic cars that are worthy of that kind of reaction. I don't see anyone confusing a freaking Camaro with ANY modifications for a car worth $100k+. Sorry.

Buddy, get out of my head haha.

You have literally summarized my exact feeling and thoughts on this matter!


When I first bought the car I never told anyone about it, when all of my friends saw me pull up their faces were absolutely stunned.

Everyone kept asking me if I am loaded etc. I simply replied with no. I work extremely hard, I do not smoke, and I rarely drink. It is simple I save my money for what I want.

I disagree... Id buy a Camaro AND a Vette. Might be the redneck in me though... I love the exotics but would never own one out of a lottery ticket unless I won up in the Millions haha then id still own a Camaro AND a Vette lol
EDIT: I'd buy some vintage Muscle Cars too. 69 GTO Judge, 69 Charger R/T, and Chevelle 454 SS are on top of that list!

I don't get the lottery question. I get the "Apparently we're paying you to much money" comment from the bosses at work....

[MrGood]

If I won the lottery I would drive this to claim my money and then give it away. Wouldn't drive a camaro. Not even as a work vehicle lol.

If i ever won the lottery, i don't think i could build a big enough garage!

+1

The day I got my car, the partner at my firm said "we must be paying you too much". Its true, out of the 60-ish employees I have one of the nicer cars, if not top 3, and Ive only been here 9 months, first job out of college.

But its because they dont spend money on cars, they arent car people, some of them are millionaires lol.

They buy in-ground pools, big boats/yachts, go on trips all the time, have massive houses,etc, etc.
My car is just what I spend my money on.

I honestly would take it as an insult. Cause they obviously looked at you, and then your car. Which at that point, in their mind, the only way you could have been able to afford that car was that you won the lottery.

When i've heard this comment "wow you must have alot of money, it must be nice" i reply: Not anymore. lol

[RedRaven]

Haven't had that question yet, just a couple "Money Bags" from co-workers who in the next sentence say "nice ride".

If I do get it I'll be more likely to turnaround and ask "How much did you pay for that new 4-wheel drive with the 24 inch wheels and 6 inch body lift?".
