I get BMW 3 series trying to pick a fight, and you can imagine how that ends for them and it seems to be only at a light. I usually come across Mopar and Stangs on my side of the road. The odd time I see a Camaro on my side, I try to catch them, or slow down a little to let them catch up, but traffic just gets in the way. A couple of weeks ago, I was heading home from work and of course there's a grid lock and I was creeping up on a 5gen that was in the right lane. Once I got beside it, there was a cute girl driving, and it was a SS, we just smiled at each other and she turned off the next exit. That's the second time in 2 years I came up beside a Camaro and had a cutie driving, it is a nice thing to see.

Metro Vancouver drivers can be the worst. Some will do anything just to get one vehicle ahead of you, like they have to be in front no matter what.
I've had my Gen 6 V6 less than a week, but on the first day driving we got a thumbs up from a Gen 6 SS driver. Very cool feeling indeed

This was always one of my pet peeves. I wish people would just accept their vehicle for its intended uses. For example:

-Pickups: hauling/off-roading
-SUV's: passenger transport and possible off-roading (mostly in the case of Jeeps)

I'm not going to hit the nearest off-road mud trails in my Camaro and start challenging Jeep Wranglers so why do they act like they are race vehicles? Likewise, I'm not going to go to my local Home Depot and pick up a load of lumber or a refrigerator and throw it in my Camaro trunk.

I could probably go on about some other cars but you get my drift...

Don't know why people drive 4 and 6 banger turbo cars because when you add the turbo their gas mileage is not much better than our V8.

Make sure to wave or something when you see the white SS with black stripes on the side and blue plates, cause that's me!

Price. Or in my case premature ejaculation, aka having an orgasm before properly deciding which orgasm to enjoy every time I'm horny (FYI: this analogy is in no way referring to sex or self gratification).

+1.

When I owned a C5Z, I was shocked at the respect that car received. Traffic would part to let me through, waves, smiles, and shouts across parking lots, "Hey, nice car!". Only cars that harassed me, where LS1 trans ams and Camaros.

+1 with extra giggles everytime you stuff it into a corner in track mode and it automatically does a rev match downshift!
