I already knew that I was getting the car before I saw it. Then I saw it and was blown away even more. THIS IS THE CAR FOR ME!

I haven't changed/canceled my order and I'm still #3 of 6 at my dealer and waiting patiently in anticipation of quickly getting it into the shop for it's first round of upgrades...

I got the exact opposite impression. I went there thinking the car was going to be bigger, but after I seen it I thought is perfect in dimensions. JMO.

I got to sit in that one today. Big crowd around that one too. My wife said it was "hawt".

Seen it. Love it. Can't wait to sit in one.

*Mr. Wyndham* · 02-14-2009, 10:29 PM

Saw it...LOVED it....drooled over it....

I was expecting a great-looking car the first time...but if you're serious about it, it just blows you away. And, imo, the size is just perfect. A tick bigger than a Mustang, but a load smaller than a Challenger.

I saw this prototype at last year's Mpls auto show.

okyankee · 02-14-2009, 10:34 PM

diddiyo · 02-14-2009, 10:37 PM

i've seen a ketchup-red one at the so-fl int. auto show but couldn't sit in it. i liked everything but the color

*GTAHVIT* · 02-14-2009, 10:46 PM

Oh yes I have. 3 times in less than a week!

chadrcr · 02-14-2009, 10:49 PM

I only got to see the concept back in Dallas....2006

Inspector 17 · 02-14-2009, 11:00 PM

I saw an RS and an SS at the DC autoshow. This car is even better looking in person that I imagined that it would be!

fad1 · 02-14-2009, 11:30 PM

Oh heck ya, I saw it at the L.A autoshow, and Man, the SS was like an exotic car, everyone droooling on it. I went to that booth so many times, that the Chevy Reps started to recognize me and ask me, "Weren't you here 10mins ago?"

I'm glad I'm not the only one.
