Exclamation Worst part about owning a camaro!!!

Is knowing what to say when everybody is complimenting you on your ride. We need a thread of good responses to compliments. Because half the time I have no idea what to say! They are like wow thats such a nice car, that looks awesome! And I'm just like uhhh... ummm.... happy birthday!! And then later I'm like

The worst is when somebody that doesn't know the late model trim signifiers (like 18" heritage wheels) walks up to one of us LS owner's and and asks with a big smile
"got the v8 in it?". Luckily I can blame the LS status on my student loans

I just tell folks it is the only car I've owned that the more I look at it and drive it, the more I love it.

I always say "thank you very much" and then "You should get one. You would look so good in the driver's seat!"
And after they say "I could never afford anything that nice." I say "You don't need money, just credit."

"What? This old thing?"

Seriously, I usually just thank them and say "I really enjoy it" and let it go at that.

I usually just say thanks . If they have a kid who wants to see bumble bee, I let him sit in it. If they ask when he transforms, I just say he only does it if you piss him off. That is usually the end with a good laugh.

I get the "How's the Camaro treating you?" My response is "Awesome".

In Philly, I get asked how much the car cost more often than I get compliments. I just keep a straight face and say "I don't know, I stole it." Most of the time, whoever asks looks confused or even a little anxious and they don't ask anymore questions
