Have you ever seen the commercials for the V8 juice?

Those commercials were made to mock us V6 owners

Sorry about that. VW is an acceptable target for abuse

The day I brought mine home my wife said "What color is that? Awkward, orange-red?"

What is the average citizen? What are we considered higher or lower since we own a model car?

Guess people around here know what they are since all I hear is nice Camaro you have there.

When I posted up on Facebook a picture of my 2013 when I first picked her up one of the first comments was an asshat comment of "batmobile" and that I can jump out of it now screaming "I am batman!"

.

I never have watched the last few batman movies and frankly do not understand the ignorance, but whatever......

Mine has been called a pumpkin on wheels.

Don't bother me any like the orange and the black stripes made for a nice touch when i received mine a while back.

That's really funny, because my 10yo son said the exact same thing the first time we took a drive at night.

On my way back from picking my daughter and her boyfriend up, we ended up at a random police road check. Normally they just check for seatbelts, if our license sticker is up to date and ask if the driver has had any alcohol.

The funny thing was the cop just kept asking me questions about my car and held up the line of people behind me. I thought it was kind of funny. My daughter's boyfriend said he thought the cop was sizing up the car in case he has to chase me! I laughed. I just figured they cop is a car guy. Camaros around here are rare and I have only ever seen 1 other convertible in the area. I am guessing he asked me like 15-20 questions from what year to was this my first time out since fall.
