bees love my camaro

ok, so this might be sort of a dumb question but I'm curious. Do any of you other yellow camaro owners find bees constantly on your car...LOL?
I'm not talking about wasps or hornets, these are bees and they seem to always be on my car. This happens alot but today in two different parts of town, while stopped at a stop light a bee came up and landed on my sideview mirror, once on the left side then another on the right. my wife and i get a laugh out of it cause it seems like we're always finding them somewhere on the outside of the car.

I've got the same problem, for a while I thought it was the detail spray but my wife's IOM doesn't have the problem ... Just something about RY with black stripes.

Its not the colour of the car that attracts them, its the fuel your burning.
Have you been filling up with BP?

I was wondering if its got to do with the yellow / black combo, I mean, these are the yellow / black bumble bees i'm talking about. My wife laughs and says they think its the queen bee. In the last week I've probably found a bee on the car 4 times, but this has been going on since i bought the car back in april

Its the yellow they are attracted to. I traded in my yellow supercharged monte carlo for my camaro and made sure not to make that mistake again.

Its a real pain going through drive thru's that have nice flowers around them only to constantly be having to roll your window up and down to order because bee's keep trying to fly in ur car. lol
