People giving thumbs up

all over the place. Children stopping dead in there tracks staring with jaws dropped. People taking pictures when I come out of a store. Several said they turned the car around and entered the parking lot just get a closer look.

The best thing was driving through the country and we came up on a Sonic, there was a car show going on. I wanted to stop and look at the cars, so we drove into the parking lot. The guy that was running the show insisted that I park and enter... We got there so late that the votes were mostly turned in. It was cool to stand there and have all the questions and compliments. The number one comment was "this is the first one I have seen in person"

Pretty cool couple of days.

Sounds like fun, I know that feeling. After 2 and 1/2 years with my SKY Redline, I still get that.

But who are you kidding, "I wanted to stop and look at the cars, so we drove into the parking lot." Come on Bud we know better, you probably saw not one other car.....

ljustin293 · 05-25-2009, 03:12 PM

same way on the test drive..it's crazy

Coop 2010 · 05-25-2009, 05:16 PM

Seriously I pulled into the lot next to Sonic and I didn't expect them to be that friendly they were all part of the same car club, it was cool to be invited in....

Brought home my 2SS on the 13th.............I did NOT realize so many people carried camer's in their vehicle's!! LOL
Plus I have been stopped 4 times by the sheriff's dept. JUST to check out the car!!!
It has been an awesome experience.

To my fellow Generation 5 owners.........Peace, brother and sisters!!!!

It gets a little tiring, but it's nice. I don't like it when people start trying to track me down, and they drive all the streets until they finally find my street and my car. Also, the girls love the car, so not so bad.

Amelia98 · 05-26-2009, 07:29 AM

Even Mustang owners are giving thumbs up and askinhg questions!

Soccer Mom · 07-13-2009, 11:29 PM

I agree its a little strange to have so many people taking pics of ya on the highway or in the "wally world"parking lot. On my space pics of the car got more hits in 3 days then a year of my kids and family pics!

bluch · 07-13-2009, 11:45 PM

same here. thumbsup,

, rubber necking drivers, pointing kids. go into the store to get a drink come out, and there are ppl looking in the windows and taking pictures. its pretty

enjoy it while you still can, cause in a year they won't be as special...still will be awesome and cool, but it won't be "the first one i've seen" comments
