Less compliments over time? - Page 4 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I always get compliments. Whenever I get a car I usually personalize it....and that's an ongoing process for me.

Meh..... don't reply care for compliments, I know I like my car and thats enough for me. I actually try and avoid it if possible, like someone else said there mostly just awkward conversation anywways

Well, at least I managed to only have one person make a comment like that. Thanks for your feedback, appreciate it.

It really doesn't matter to me in the least, it was just an observation because it was the same place where I got my very first comment on the car so it made me realize. Never said I was "upset". Jeez, sorry.

I still get a lot of attention when I drive it. However not as much when I first got it. One of the first ones in Mass and people just couldn't believe how great looking the car was, from color to performance. I know I will probably get attention again when I get my new ZL1

I get compliments all the time, but it is usually just due to the sound of my car. they compliment how good it sounds, not the looks or the car itself...

This coming from someone who has spent a lot of money making his "dick" bigger!
I say it like I see it!

ParisTNDude · 03-02-2012, 05:36 PM

Gees, they're even asking for rides in mine. I haven't failed yet to win trophies at car shows.

Yesterday on the way to work I was behind a guy that works at the same company as I do who owns a 2010 Mustang.

When we got in the office, he said, "man, your car looks menacing in the rear view mirror."

+1 here!

Every time I drive my ABM, I get compliments. And yes...I keep my pristine and super, super clean. Shines like new money.

el ess A · 03-02-2012, 06:32 PM

Not very many yellow ones around here. People STILL stop and wanna talk about it. Granted, not as traffic stopping as they once were, but they still "got it".

Ir0nM4n · 03-02-2012, 06:44 PM

I think it has to do with color. So far it has not stopped, although I am not looking for them. It is nice when it happens. If it stops thats ok because I love my car.
