I love these stories.

That's a riot! I can just see the guy flippin out, I've known people like that who just over-emote, but it's hilarious that he did it at a gas station and attracted a crowd around your Camaro.

Wow, he was over the top.

I had pulled up to the station, got out & was just getting ready to pump my gas. I turned to my right & there was a guy almost in my face asking questions about my car, the second guy was by my drives door. Since my car was unlocked & my son was in the car the "Momma Bear" in me was on high alert. He asked so many question about how much I paid for my car & how much my wheels were. His wife was looking online at Camaro's & kept asking how much, how much. I told him to see my friend who sold me the car.

When I went into the gas station to pay, the attendant said "he was sorry for the way I was approached by the two guys."

I've never been approached like that before & it was a little uncomfortable, but mostly educational.

I look forward to good weather : )

one bad thing about lound exhaust though. You can't sneak out of the house to go hang out with your buddies when your wife said you can't go . Start that thing up and you're done.

This is the baddest Camaro I've seen." So he starts to talk to other people at the gas station, " yo, check this thing out, this is the sh** right here." So I start to get truckers come up, a couple of young girls, a guy on a motorcycle and he's wanting me to start the car up for everyone and pop the hood. I have a group forming. So I start up the car and the guy pretends like he faints and then says 'man, i gotta take some pics of this sh**. my wife is gonna love this sh**. so he starts taking pics of the car from all sides, the interior and engine, putting his ear up to near the exhaust and saying that's the sickest sound he's ever heard.

and i'm a pretty humble and modest guy, so i don't show off much so felt a little weird getting all this attention. He was by far, the most excited person ever in regard to my Camaro. Kept shaking my hand and he was more excited than I was by far when I got my car and I was pretty darn excited.

The whole thing was hilarious. he would stand and look at the car in one spot, shake his head, and move to another spot, and just keep saying "oh my god, this m**fer is bad." after about 20 minutes, he finally left and gave me a honk on the horn and a big wave.

I've had my encounters with people in the Camaro and some great conversations and experiences but this tops of all of them!!

(and by the way, I told them there were lots of cars nicer than mine owned by my friends on the forum!)
i guess there are still people out there who don't have the internet?
