so are you saying its that way between 5th gen owners or f-body owners all together, cuz i saw a 2010 black SS with orange stripes in Marion KY this weekend (im here for baseball) and tried to flag him down and got no look or nothing. i then turned around followed him for a couple miles and still nothing. ive never seen an ss in person till then and i really wanted a better look! lol

I haven't seen another Camaro on the road yet but got thumbs up from 2 Vetts driving east on I-78 today. I was driving back from Hershey Pa and they were no doubt coming from the Carlisle show.

I always return the thumbs up, head nod, or smile when I get them. I say thank you when people compliment the camaro. I will answer questions that they may ask. I even had one guy want to take pics with his cell phone at the Dairy Queen, both interior and outside, I was happy to oblige him. This is how we should represent ourselves and the 5th gen camaro, at least I think so.

Well I've only seen one other camaro so far and I threw a thumbs up. But couldn't really see him cuz of tinted windows. So not sure if he shared my enthusiasim. But as far as people approaching me, I try and be friendly as much as possible. Some peope just can't take a hint though. I've had two incidents where I just kinda had to leave people while they kept rambling. Both times I was with friends and we had plans. I mean when you see a persons friends get in there cars and pull out it's time to rap up the conversation. Other then that, if it's just me I'll take 10 minutes and talk. Even let complete strangers sit in it if they wanted to a few times. Just my two cents.

I have yet to run into another 5th gen owner aside from the guy who had an ABM SS on order at a little car show today, guy was nice.

Kinda surprised to hear about 5th gen owners being douches.

Unfortunately, you just might be right, quickdraw. Pretty sad, but that's humanity....all types. All good for me so far. I've met an IOM coming at me, flashed him, and he waved, and two Mustang drivers have passed and waved to me.

I've only seen two other Camaro owners on the road. Both of them honked and gave me the thumbs up, and I did as well. Heck, I've gotten a lot of thumbs up, and "nice ride" from Mustang GT owners. I would love to chat with other Camaro owners but sometimes it's hard if they are going one way and you are going in the opposite direction.

I'm gunna be as nice as possible, and I don't think I will get tired of talking about the car. It will be indirect bragging, and you will be able to do it over and over to different people why complain. When in the situation I run into another I will play it cool unless the person on the other end wants to say something nice. I might glance over to see if they want some attention and give them some positive attention other than that I may just treat it like another car/person.
