VERY COOL
I was the first car at a red light today, and there was another car next to me, on my left side...
I'm just sitting there, minding my own business, waiting for the light to change, and out of the corner of my eye, I see the car that is next to me backing up, and then moving forward again...  I look over at the guy in the car next to me, and he is giving me a HUGE THUMBS UP!!!...  He lowers his window, so I do the same...  He asks, "Is that an RS??", and I said, "Yes, it is"...  He says, "that is a really cool car", and I said, "yes, it is, I LOVE it"...  Then, when the light changes, I just couldn't help myself, I just had to leave him, and everybody else "in the dust", so to speak...  The speed limit was 40, so I slowed back down again, and let the rest of the cars catch up to me...I did NOT want to get a speeding ticket, but I just couldn't help showing off a little bit...  I have had my car for almost 4 months now, and the attention it gets "NEVER GETS OLD"!!!...it is so much fun to take it out in public and still be a ROCK STAR...  I love it!!!...all the smiles, all the waves, all the thumbs ups, all the slowing down to get a good look, and on and on.................this was the first time I actually had someone BACK UP THEIR CAR AT A RED LIGHT, to get a better look at the back of my car, as well as the side... BTW, he never did get to see the front of my car, as I was waaaaayyyyy ahead of him...

That's really cool Donna. I had some police officers pretty much do the same thing to me today
 Oh, you know the young guy in the Taco Bell drive-thru that took a picture of me in the car a while back???? I went through the same drive-thru this week and the same guy was there. He told me he has that picture as his wallpaper on his computer You guys were right! Sometimes you don't want to be treated like a "rock-star"

Donna I know how you feel.
A few weeks ago my wife and I were driving my father-in-laws RJT 2SS/RS and a mall security guard flagged us down. He said that the car was the prettiest thing he had ever see and added that he has been married for 25 years and that he loves his wife but, he would trade her in for one in second. I can hardly wait until mine comes in!!

I think that is a little "creepy", Aby...be careful out there...you don't want any stalkers...My husband was driving my car a few weekends ago - YES, I do let him drive it sometimes...lol...anyway, some guy followed him home to our house, just to look at, and comment on, the Camaro... If that was me, by myself, I think I would have been "creeped out"...AND a little bit scared... We ladies have to be very careful....it's fun to be a ROCK STAR, but at a safe distance...

So, this security guard pulls off to the side and stops his van and gets out and stops me... I thought I had a good chance to ask where there was more parking available... What he wanted was to comment on my Camaro...he said it was great and asked me how much I paid for it, and I told him the base price starts at $23,000, and he was shocked, as he thought the car cost twice as much... So, that was pretty cool.................... Let me know as soon as you get your car and your PERMAGRIN

Way to go Donna. Cool story.
I had someone in an old GTO follow me home from a car show one night. Had a nice chat with him about my Rosie! Great Car and Let's Enjoy these Beauties!!
