Best compliment you ever got...? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Last summer I was driving around in downtown Chicago, windows down and radio off(don't know why) when I got to a red light. And on the corner is a nice little couple taking photos of building and stuff. So I stop and her BF Says "piece of junk" while looking at my car...then his GF says "Oh wow" she then leans into my window and says "beautiful car" and snaps a picture

. So I smile and say "thank you" while looking at her BF and he is just looking at me like he wants to rip me apart lol!!!

Anyone else remember the best or funniest compliment they ever got on their Camaro? Or any other car?

"Nice car man"

Was driving around with the top down, a Harley rider pulled up beside me and gave me a thumbs up, I gave him a nod and he took off.

constant attention, stares, thumbs up and gas station/redlight conversations in any of my cars.

At the local Mall I came out to my car and found 5 strangers around my car taking photos with their cell phones. They thought it was custom painted.

Sam's Club gas attendant came up and told me "Thank you for bringing such a fantastic and beautiful machine here today!"

I've had a couple @ a car show come up and say "We bought our Camaro because of how good your car looked, So worth it thanks" Thought it was awesome, best moment so far for sure.

In a bar parking lot, I had a cute young lady tell me, "You're car makes me wet". I'm pretty sure she was just messing with the old fart (that would be me), but it was fun at the time.

First weekend I had it, driving back from Dunkin Donuts...Cadillac CTS V pulls next to me at a light and the guy driving says "That's a beautiful car!" I said "Thanks, same to you!" Light turned green and we just rolled on...

Some badass old metal head looking dude at the car wash last week threw me a thumbs up and the horns then pulled the garage door open for me to leave. Then I get random people on the street, mostly women who tell me the car is beautiful/sharp.

1. Every member of a Mustang club complimented my car at an event.

2. As I was getting out of my car for lunch at a local burger place, a lady walked up and asked if I believe in chance encounters. I said it depends on what my chances were. Strange on my birthday.

"Damn dude, your shit looks thick as hell in those jeans"

Wait!, oh you mean my Camaro?......ok then.

Best one so far: "The ass of your car is sexy as hell"

The day after I got mine, a guy on a custom Harley pulled up along side, looked at my car front to back then looked at me and nodded. Roared off after that - I thought that was cool.

Sitting at a light and a cop walks over and notions for me to lower my window. He says " was it worth it". I was trying to figure out what I did wrong, this time. He smiled and said " this a beautiful car, take care of it"
