when ever i show a class member the new camaro their response is ALWAYS 'that looks like the challenger'

i tell them its the same body style but their nothing alike. i mean really the challenger is so much fatter with curves that don't even compare to those on the camaro. Anyone met people like this??

Looks like a mustang. You're kidding me, right? Open your eyes!

My seven year old knows the difference.

Only people that don't know s*$%t about cars will make that mistake.

LOL the problem is people wish the Mustang and Challenger looked as good as the Camaro does

Tell them that they might be a good candidate for LASIK.

Don't worry about those people. I used to have people tell me all the time they had just bought the "2-door" version of my car when I had the Charger SRT-8, only to find out they really meant they had bought a Mustang and thought the Charger was a sedan version of the Mustang. Just smile and respec their opinion (however misinformed

)

Wow, this just keeps getting worse. I didn't know people were that car blind.

Toastylicious · 10-20-2009, 09:44 PM

TJ91 · 10-20-2009, 11:59 PM

And theny they look like

"Im right eh?" and then they go to

and finally arrive at this when looking back at their comment

Hercules778 · 10-21-2009, 12:02 AM

Well, at least they didn't tell you that your car looked like a Prius?

Bullitt · 10-21-2009, 05:03 AM

As hard to believe as this is, a lot of people aren't as obsessed with cars as the people on this forum. Sounds crazy, I know, but it's true. Take the names off 'em, and I couldn't tell you a Honda from a Toyota from a Nissan from a Hyundai from a Mitsubishi from a Suzuki.
You love your car, others couldn't care less.

Guy I work with told my he hates my Camaro because they look to much like a truck on the front end.
