lol ^...I live south of you and it's the same way. Camaros, Mustangs, Vettes are all dime a dozen here in Cali. I'd like to know where these stares are at and which part of the USA this is happening.

Some people appreciate a nice Camaro, or as it was said earlier in the thread, it could be the driver they are looking at too

Told him no, everything you see is stock for now. Told me its a beautiful color then the light turned green.

Usually the first thing someone comments on when it comes to my car

Everyday someone is starring at my baby. I get more compliments from people driving old school cars than the newer stuff. Got compliments from people do far driving EL Camino's. old impalas, 427 Cobra even. We have a lot of Camaros up here but a lot of people don't see unique kinds. It's always a good feeling to a certain point then it tends to get a little creepy. Once I get my tint on it, it won't be as bad.

I got thumbs up from a bunch of high schoolers over the weekend. Also had a pizza guy comment on it being a nice car. Completely new to me coming from a Honda haha!

People are always taking photos of mine. Today I was in line at the drive through. I look up at the mirror and the lady behind me is taking a photo. She used flash through her windshield, not sure how that turned out lol. The funniest was i was at a stop light, and I see the girl behind me taking a pic with her cell phone. I stuck my arm out the window and flashed the devil horns. She didn't notice when she was taking it, but when she looked at the pic, she totally new she was busted, she flashed the horns back and was bouncing up and down in the drivers seat. It was hilarious.

Happened AGAIN this morning. Gate guard on base told me, "That's a SICK color, Sergeant".

Im always used to all the attention being on ME. Nobody even notices I drive a Camaro until I tell them, otherwise they're too busy gawking over how devilishly handsome I am.

I mean. I get looks too, but when I tell people I drive a Camaro, they flip out. Extra points for me
