I just say thank you as well.

I have to tell you that with all the bad news you see each day, it's so nice to drive something that puts a smile on so many faces!!

I'm not agitated by it, just a little overwhelmed.

I always feel awkward when I'm at a red light, I happen to look over at the guy next to me, and he gives a big smile and a thumbs up or whatever. That part is not awkward... it's the part following that... where I have to turn back, facing the light, and sit there while I wait for it to turn green... It just feels uncomfortable, knowing he is probably still staring... haha I dunno. I love my car though and I want it back!

I usually just say thanks or return the many thumbs up that come my way. The remarks seem to be endless. I was kinda used to the compliments from my Colorado that I put quite a few bucks into and it looks sharp. With the Camaro being stock on the outside, getting the compliments is pretty cool, GM did a great job on this car.

It's impossible to go anywhere and not notice the turning heads of other drivers. People at red lights rolling down their windows and asking questions like, is it fast or how high does the speedo go to. The "that car looks awesome" or "that is a badass car". All I can say back is ya, and it's a lot of fun to drive too. I love this car even if there were no compliments, I still know it's badass.

I'm heading to Sturgis with it tomorrow, now that's going to be fun.

Me too!!!...I never get tired of the compliments and I am very happy to answer any and all questions about the Camaro

I always feel like the luckiest person on the planet to be privileged enough to get to own and drive this amazing piece of design and engineering magnificence..............

I am a "walking and talking"...LOL..."Camaro commercial"...LOL...

Just consider this a once in a lifetime event to have such a special car, still relatively early in production. Not many cars ever get the attention or have the awesome lines as this car does. I don't expect to ever be involved in an experience like this again. I'm soaking in all the attention as modestly as possible.

I usually say, "I'd say thanks, but all I had to do with it was sign on the dotted line. GM did a great job with this car!" It doesn't seem right to say "thank you" since I didn't have any role in making the car...

It's one thing seeing a hot Camaro. It's another thing seeing a hot Camaro driven by a hot girl.

Well somebody nailed it, all I did was buy it, GM built it. That's a pretty good one to use.

My response depends on how cute she is
Once someone said, "Your car is sweet" and I thought, "I wouldn't know, I've never tasted it" but I usually just say "Thanks".

That's what I'd say, too. "Thanks. They did a great job with it."
