A shot of the radio at night lit up (that green light toward the bottom is a cell phone charger--so before you guys freak )

A few asked questions about interest in the car on the way down and all I can say is WOW!! I had no idea what we were in for! We were followed quite a bit, people tailing, then swerving to get a side picture, and then cutting you off so they could get a shot of the front! It was wild! After my husband and I realized a lot of people in foreign cars were interested (Thumbs up, pictures, etc.) I tallied what cars did what and about 50% were in foreign cars! A LOT of pickups! A few Camaros Like the red SS that followed us for quite awhile! Gas Station stops were an event--I ended up taking pictures of people with the car with my camera and sent them to their email if they did not have a camera on them! A lot of interest! Men and women-many said their first cars were Camaros. Wide range of ages too. Most said that the car looked better than pictures and they were very impressed with the interior in person. Of course many wanted to hear the engine rev, etc.

Well, I will take more pics as promised and I will try to get some audio (no promises here, I will need some help with this and my husband thinks I have lost my mind posting all this ) Now he knows how I learned as much about the Camaro as I did! All to keep up with him!
It's funny but you just described the reactions I got whit my Saturn Sky when I got it back in March of 2006. Since I got the 351st one built you can imagine that there were not many out on the roads and many had no clue what it even was. (some people still ask me what it is) The same type people you describe were also the ones interested in my Sky.
It is an experience that you will never forget. And all you People that get your Camaros before many know what it is will be in for a real treat. always plan some extra time for talking to others about the car, because you are going to need it.
