Um... no, I'm totally serious. Why can't I admire those cars without being jealous, or wanting one?

If I feel the need to ride in an SS, my boyfriend has one. And sure the ZL1 is an AMAZING car. But does that mean I'm jealous of someone who has one? No. I've got better things to do with my time than envy other people My car is beautiful; I have a thousand hours into customizing it JUST how I want it; and it's perfect for me.

Why is this so hard to believe? A Bugatti Veyron or an Aston Marton DB9 are also incredible cars. Does that mean I'm jealous of their owners and if I see one I turn green with envy and wish, oh, so much, that I could have one? No. No, thanks. I like my mass-produced, cheap little American car.

I envy those who still have parents, because mine are both gone. Can you still call your older sister for advice? Lost mine to pancreatic cancer this year. I envy you if you can still call your sister and tell her you love her.

Pretty pathetic to envy property, there are more important things in life.
I'm real happy with my V6, but would I take the SS or ZL1 if someone wanted to give me one? Sure!

I'm not jealous of ZL1 owners; it's a great car no doubt but I've put a lot of time, money and effort into getting my 2010 1SS the way I want it and I'm very happy with it. It's mine for life.

I could buy a ZL1 if I really wanted one so it's not a money issue. The only Camaro I'm keeping an eye out for is the Z/28 when they finally make one. That may seriously tempt me to add another Camaro to the "family".

Anybody who has a Camaro has a great car; no need to be "envious" of anybody else.

Lol. I don't. I want a Z06, now though. That is my new debate with new job. Dump cash into my SS and get a sport bike or buy a new Z06....

I'm in the same boat with the Z-oh

Wait 3 years. You'll save 35k on a car with 5,000 miles and not even broken in.

Veyron owners envy me and aspire to reach my levels of awesomeness...

But that's just me

Man you guys sure are weird.. There's this one Honda Civic that cruises around town here and man does it have an awesome body kit, and he's got all of these stickers that I could only think come from sponsers. OHH and the exhaust, oh man the exhaust. Talk about a race car.. Now that's something I envy.

Here, try this on your Camaro. It won't be quite as cool as a Honda but it'll get you close
