Was driving early this am when I came across a 2015 GT...

... I was just driving normal to make my first meeting and came up behind him. He let me pass and then stayed behind me for miles and I could tell he was tailgating to get a better look (and listen) at the car. I always have it in Sport mode and the burbling exhaust is intoxicating.

We reach the toll plaza and he drives up next to me with a big smile and a thumbs up and we go our separate ways.

It's nice to see how much respect and appreciation the car is getting from all sorts of enthusiasts.

Loving every second behind the wheel!

Cheers,
Nawambo

Hey man. You'd get a double thumbs up from me, and I'm a Challenger guy. 2016 Camaro is friggin awesome!

On my way to work this morning there was a Jiffy Lube employee out front holding a sign for cheap oil changes.

He was waving the sign around somewhat lackadaisically. He completely stopped and his jaw dropped as he watched me drive by. Definitely put a smile on my face seeing his reaction. Been getting a lot of compliments on the car too. Fun stuff.

I got a double take on the interstate last night from a guy driving a 14 or 15 Camaro. Agreed, they are a head and ear turner.

Had this happen several times. I also love when I park in a lot and come back to my car with a 5th gen parked beside me.

You would have gotten a thumbs up from me. I appreciate all types of car and the Camaro is pretty much a home run for Chevrolet.

Did you give the Mustang driver a thumbs up as well showing mutual respect?

That is why GM put so much thought into the design of the back of the car...so Mustang drivers would have something nice to look at. Lo

I have to admit I like Mustangs and Challengers...just not nearly as much as my Camaro!

That's the one part I don't like.... GM did great with everything but that. I think that would force more Mustang owners to mod so they wouldn't have to see that ugly ass lol.
