Had the car well over a year and still gets looks

As we all know I am a car guy and I don't care if it is chevy, Ford, Dodge .. or even imports ... there is one thing I will give credit to GM for though .. keeping this car as close as possible to the concept!

I do think this is one of the best looking cars I have owned as far as the shape of the car goes ... I've had my car since June 6th 2009 and I still come out of a store or restaurant and people are looking at it .. When I'm driving I constantly see people looking in their drivers side mirror checking the car out ..

Anyway .. I'm sure you all have observed the same .. I know a lot of the car mags say that when it first came out the look was great, but they think it is getting a bit stale .... I don't think they are seeing the same things we are ..


Carry on ... :flag1:

Right there with you, my car still gets lots of stares! By the way, tomorrow is my 1 year anniversary for picking it up from the dealer.

i really don't see how they can say it gets stale when alot of bmws have kept the same style for years and all the series look very similar from the 3-7 series

Yup, you're exactly right!

I started a similar thread about how many compliments I get with my car, and then the Camaro haters chimed in with their 2 cents (well, what they said was actually only worth 1/2 a cent ).

Driving on the highway the other day, an SUV going by me stayed right at my fender. After 5 or 10 seconds of this, I looked over to see him reviewing my car from front to back.

Then when I took the exit, the guy in the toll booth said "Ooh, Ca-Mar-Oh!"

I was at AutoZone the other day and two girls came out of the store and they wanted to take pictures of my car. It is a blast to get compliments like this.

They went through a LOT of trouble to keep this design as close to the concept as they did. It definitely paid off!!

They'll be looking at that car 20 years from now. It's just a good looking car. Big, but pretty no less.

Like being a celebrity when driving these awesome Camaro's, I have said it many times, the 2010 Camaro is the best looking Camaro ever made.

I get lots of compliments, but came out of Home Depot the other day and a girl in a car next to mine say's "nice shorts". Are you kidding me? They are nice shorts as far as i am concerned, but didn't say a word about my car.
