Unfortunetly it seems like Camaro/F-bodies have had this stigma for a while. Seems like a lot of the owners are too good for the rest of us. Nothing like vintage Vette or sport bike riders.

Some people are just dicks. Then there are dicks that own a Camaro! Nuff said.

What he said.
I wave at every vette, or fbody whether they wave back or not. I will not lower myself to their bitterness if they don't wave back. The only fbody I usually don't wave much at are the 4th gen V6 since most of the drivers are not really that crowd and really used them as grocery getter (self included).

I always return the compliment. You have to respect the other guy's car as well. It's their dream too! I am approached by fans of the car and I take the time to show it to them and explain it so they can go get one themselves. It's the right thing to do. Being arrogant just makes yourself look stupid and undeserving of such a nice ride.

Thumbs up here from me wherever I go. I am a blabber mouth about my car. I love talking to people about it. I love seeing people smile and honk.
I really love sharing anything I can about my car. I also, like to look at other peoples' cars also. So it goes both ways. If you catch me at a cruise night or local car show here around the Chicago area, come on over and let's chat and have a few laughs!

That stinks.. We fellow Camaro owners should at least smile and give each other the thumbs up.. Not a snooty face up in the air..

I haven't encountered another new Camaro on the road yet, but I got right next to a yellow Z06 at a stoplight and the dude loved my car, he was very cool.

Like someone else said some people would be that way with or with out a Camaro. Can't let that bother you. I picked mine up a week ago from the dealer and have had quite a few people come up to look at it when I been parked at different places. I've been happy to let them look and talk about the car. I try to return nods, smiles & thumbs-up when ever given. Sometimes you just miss them though. And it doesn't matter what Gen it is.

I always see other Camaros when I am not in mine. Hey azvren, come over to the Tall-City, I will give you "thumbs-up".

wow, considering there aren't that many on the street to see, (i've only seen one parked at Best Buy) it seems like everyone is having bad experience's with the cars they do see. I think we can rest assured none of these jerks comes to sites like this.
Man, there are a lot of bad people in the world. Why do i find myself paraphrasing Jeff Foxworthy? "If someone gives you a compliment and you're a smart ass to them....you might be a jerk." |
