I got this once - I quickly informed them that my engine is more than twice the size of theirs, puts down more than twice the power, and they don't get twice the mpg - so I'm doing it better

.

Plus, anyone that starts comparing mpg with a v8 camaro clearly doesn't get it

Same here. "Whoa this is sick!" 10 seconds later, "Oh it's a V6..."

Nothing but positive! except for "I dont really like the rims" but i kind of expected that as i heard that a couple of times before i even got the car.

Really? Everyone I talk to loves the orange, especially with the black accents/stripes.

The real question is why would you even have a conversation with people like this.

I have never ONCE gotten any bad comment about my Camaro, in fact I have had more guys that SAY they are mustang fans compliment my car then any other group of people.

I have had three corvettes pull up to me on the street and start up conversations about how much they like the car.

Never once have I gotten a bad comment. Again, life is to short, do not waste your time on what others think, tell them to HAVE A NICE DAY and walk or drive away from them.

I haven't had my Camaro very long (July 30) but my mother-in-law asked me if I was going through a midlife crisis before I even bought it!!! I told her "No, Doris, I have wanted one since I was a little girl"!!

She's a great woman but always makes underhanded comments and compliments.

I mainly get......... your tail lights are ugly.......... mostly from you guys. Everyone else thinks its beautiful.

102SS · 08-25-2013, 05:38 AM

The guy teching my car at the track asked/said "do you think that thing will get out of the 15's"?

I said its an SS and should run low 13's

HaHaHa... you guys and your 2014's. Everything is going to be okay man.

I imagine it's a similar cross to bear that the guys in '69 had. Luckily for them there was no internet. The new look will grow on everybody. I was on the fence at first. I like them now. I still prefer my 2013 but I better because I own one.

paul44 · 08-25-2013, 01:08 PM

I always get comments like "why didn't you get the v6? No place to fully enjoy a v8 here"...

Then I just turn on my car and leave...let them enjoy the v8 soundtrack
