your experiences are spot on with what i've run into. I've owned nice cars in the past but my 50th anniversary seems to draw a lot more attention. On two separate occasions I've been approached at gas stations by people that just wanted to talk and look at the car. I have had a bunch of people take pics of the car while i'm driving and have almost been hit once by a kid staring at me while we were going around a corner.

Other cars do seem to want to play much more often. I find it entertaining when some kid in his fart can mobile wants to race. All very irritating really. Interestingly Mustangs don't even try. I think they know better. Quick funny story and NO this isn't racing as it takes 2 cars to race and I was simply driving home. Coming home from the office on Friday I had a kid in an accord coupe stopped beside me at the light. The light changed and I pulled away like I normally do. Mr. Fart can was beating the poor Accord for everything it was worth and stayed right beside me up to the limit of 55mph. Stopped at the next light and the kid was motioning for me to roll down my window so naturally I did. He was all excited because he "kept up" with a Camaro in a race. I congratulated him and rolled my window up. You know what happened in Mexico next Best part is that I didn't even break the speed limit.


As for the ladies. Only had one that I didn't already know really take interest but it was funny as she walked up to the window while I was at a stop light and started asking questions. I have noticed that ladies that I already know have taken a huge interest in it. My buddy posted a pic of the car on FB and shortly after it got out that it was my car the texts started happening. I think that a lot of ladies don't know that the Camaro is affordable or they don't even know what it is and tend to that its more expense that it really is.
