Brings back memories of when I got my Camaro in May 2009....had one of the first ones in the area. I felt like I was a GM corporate representative, lol. Everywhere I went people stopped me to ask questions and compliment the job GM did on the car. I brought it to car shows back then and had an instant crowd around it. People still give some notice but nearly as much.

I find myself operating under a dose of adrenaline and 2 steps short of tunnel vision driving the car so I don't notice the little nuances going on around me. My wife tells me about all the drivers that dramaticaly look at the car, turns heads, stare, and otherwise gawk for lack of a better word at the ZL1.

We are glad that you love your Camaro and love to show it off. It is definitely a beautiful car to look at and also to drive. What is your favorite attribute on yours?

Haha, I had a flock of cars around me on a 3 lane highway the other day. They were all checking out the car!

I was driving the ZL1 and my girlfriend the SRT8 and we both rolled up next to each other and left the center lane between us open and sure enough this dude in a G37S pulls up in the middle revving... Let's just leave it at his unhappy butthurt ending...

Brandon,
EVERYTHING!
When I was a young man (15 years ago) I had a 67 SS Camaro, it was fun and attractive also. What originally drew me to the 5th Gen Camaro was the similarities to the 1st generation Camaros. I was dying to get one and thanks to a good friend I finally bought one and then another which is the 2012 ZL1.
I love the looks and I love my daughter who LOVES Friends and Family, Hotrods, dogs and people who love hotrods and dogs (and thats it) asking me to take her for ride in her hotrod 400 times a day! Oh and I love taking a 20mph turn at 70MPH!

We are getting the same thing now with our new Convertible, but only when we have the top down...we have gotten several thumbs up and "looking goods" at stoplights.

It will attract a ton of attention and everyone wants to talk about it, look under the hood and reminisce about the old days.
Couple that with a guy who loves to talk about cars and his ZL1 and OH BOY!
