Anybody else react the same way? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Today I pulled up right next to a white camaro with black rally stripes. Maybe it's because I rarely see another 5th gen driving around Orlando and I can't exactly see the outside of my car while driving but HOT DAMN that's a good looking car. That's when I realize I'm driving one too!

Anybody else react that way when they see another 5th gen while driving their own?

btw the white looks stunning in person and would have been my second choice.

Oh most definitely!!!

lol

i'm buying one soon and can't decide between Black and White w/ Black Stripes. Kinda wish they had Matte Black option, then it would have been an easy choice...

I saw a matte black Stingray the other day. It looked absolutely EVIL!

Passed one coming back from ATV riding, we were in the truck. My son said, "...they don't even know we have a Camaro" This was a white LT\RS looked graceful at 70 mph.

I've never seen another 5th gen while driving mine.

But last week A 2SS RJT passed me on the parkway. Damn the car looks good rolling down the road.

Chief Bob · 03-15-2010, 05:35 PM

I love the look of this car--One of the best car designs ever IMHO

Bryan · 03-15-2010, 05:41 PM

Another thing I catch myself doing is looking at pictures of the car online or watching youtube videos of it when all I really have to do is go out to the garage.

My pants get tighter every time I see another on the street. Lol, I haven't seen too many recently around though. I sometimes park and keep staring back at it while I walk away. The car just looks amazing from the front side on back when you are walking up to it. Sometimes I still can't believe it's mine.

While out for a ride the Saturday before last I happened to see a good friend of mine drive by on her way home. She didn't know I was getting the car so I stopped by her house to show her. As we were sitting in the car chatting with the overhead light on (it was dark) I see out of the corner of my eye those beautiful halos turning the corner and driving towards us. I commented on it and we both just kinda stared as it drove by with our mouths agape. Afterwards we realized how strange we must have looked (since you know the driver could see us with the light on), staring down a Camaro like we'd never seen one before while sitting inside of one.

So yes, even though I get to see this beautiful work of art every day whenever I feel like it, I still stop and stare when I see one driving by. And let's hope I never drive by an all glass building and catch my own reflection.....
