I mostly get dirty looks about 75% of the time. Sadly, most fellow camaro drivers just put their nose in the air when I wave. Stang and charger drivers just act like they don't notice which makes me smile. I am sure they are like me, I notice every muscle car in the area when I am driving.

Never had a girl throw themselves at me while in the car, got alot of looks.

To the OP, maybe she just likes the camaros and has nothing to do with the fact you were in the car!!! LOL If she was lusting at you, I suspect that is a very "STRONG" marriage!!

I've been staging a personal boycott of WalMart since just after Thanksgiving... but when I was still going there I'd make every effort to NOT be in the Mustang. There's nowhere safe to park at a WalMart. Home Depot is a very close second.

I must either (A) appear very unapproachable (B) Be really unattractive or (C) spend too much time in Afghanistan because this has never happened to me.

But Hooray for you.

I rolled down front street today and got a very similar response to the OPs from a 20 something woman standing on the sidewalk with her husband (or boyfriend maybe?) and another older gentleman, probably her father. She saw my car coming and pointed and smiled, the two guys looked around at my car as I passed. I didn't wanna be a douche so I didn't rev my engine as I rolled slowly past. I could see her checking the car out as I drove on down the street. I thought it was pretty cool, but stuff like that happens all the time around here. I'm one of the only AGM camaros around and people take notice.

I'm sorry.....but IMO....I think she was biting her finger and smiling at your CAR.....WANTING YOUR CAR.....not the driver.....don't ya think???

I see you live in Houston, and I in Orlando...

I think this is far less common in larger cities where the population of higher end cars (and many more Camaros is very obvious). I think I have had a 3 or 4 women give the stare and say "nice car!"..all were young though. I could totally understand the attention from women for people who live a bit outside the outskirts of metropolitan or less populated areas.

I don't believe it is that much of a magnet either. I have a cam and headers it sounds incredible... as such, I think if I have had 4 women compliment it, I have probably had 40 guys lol

This car gets attention from all kinds of people. Guys will stop and stare while girls smile and wave. Yesturday one of guys I know came up to me and said he wanted to have sex with my car lol. Usually the women say they want to have sex IN the car (good luck pulling that off)....

When my wife or girls drive the car it's constant! I get a lot of compliments too but they are interested more in the car than me.. LOL
