Any Girls Admiring Your Camaro?

I haven't noticed any, and I probably wouldn't even if they did.

but i must say moding is a addiction and when you get something new the feeling is so nice. next week i am having 1inch drop springs, and sway bars put in and very excited at the moment. also have two exams next week, and i am on here, not studying. dammit
Same here, two on monday, lol, I also have 2 essays to write before then.

And yeah it won't be as much fun driving relatively stock but that 5 year 100,000 mile warranty gives great peace of mind.

Then again, it'll be light mods (CAI, headers, exhaust, etc.) until the warranty goes and then I'm planning on going all out with a new motor. That's far in the future though of course.

idk how much is done to your car right now, but if you wanted to do a a cheap mod for the time being. a muffler delete would be cool. just a idea.

Yeah I've had a bunch of people recommend that. Should cost me like $50. But I want to get a baseline dyno at Vengeance Performance before I tweak anything. Just so I know where I came from stock.

Same. Like I've said, I tell no one about my camaro.

in my experience the camaro doesn't actually get you an attractive girl you have to already have her interest and the camaro is just kinda icing on the cake to her. Don't get me wrong its a hot car but if your buying a car that starts in the low 20k's expecting to get really attractive women you will be disappointed. I've heard this theory that you buy a camaro and buy big rims and the models are just going to start falling all over themselves for you. That's coming from some friends, family, and random strangers its pretty funny. Most of the attention I get in my car is totally unwanted (cops, dudes, kids, or not so attractive women). Your still gonna need a personality guys. The thread starter seemed to have the right idea, being friendly and accessible.

Well, since I'm a girl and admire my car all the time - yes!

But mostly I get men and teenage boys making googly eyes at it and telling me they love my car. Sport bike riders giving me thumbs up on the freeway then pulling in front of the car, turning around staring!

Fun stuff

I get a ton of attention from everyone, but I will say I did meet one of the hottest girls ever at a Camaro event and the car did help in attracting her. She has been the g/f for over a year now.

I think the car was the main attraction.

I have gotten plenty of smiles and thumbs up in mine, way more than I got with my old ride (2009 Mustang GT convertible)

The point is it worked, I ended up with the hot girl in the end and she still loves the car.
