Most common compliment and complaint you've heard by someone looking at your car.

[sh233252]

Just wondering what people hear or are asked about their Z/28.
Include the most bizarre comment you have heard!

[Pat evil black Z/28]

Mostly cost to much or why not buy hell cat.

[Front Runner]

Most common for me.......

"This is my first time seeing one. Man, that thing is badazz."

[Stephen12ZL1]

"wow...look at the brakes!" "I bet that splitter gets scraped a lot" "Are those the factory tires...R comp Pirellis?"

[sh233252]

I guess I should chime in here. And I should say I live in a rural area on the east coast of Canada where there is a lot of nice old stuff but not a great amount of new nice cars.

"What all have you done to the car?"
"Those tires need to be replaced!" -- that one most recently from the owner of the local Ford dealership haha
"I have not seen anything like this before!"
"I love the colour!"

[RSZ]

1. Brakes and the size of the rotors, especially the rear
2. Wheels and how wide they are
3. Let me see the 427

I also get the "what have you done to your car, to be sure, it's not stock". Facial expressions tell all when I say that it is.......

Man i hope one day to be able to drive one.

Why is your car so loud?
Slow down there's kids playing on our streets!
Why didn't you buy a hell cat
Why did you get such a gass guzzler?

All from a bunch of liberal gun hating prius driving new yorkers YUCK!!

-Is that a ZL1? Me-nope it's a Z28.
- Have you had it on the track yet?
-How fast is it?
- at a recent show I overheard (young kid) Wow, a Z28, top of the line model, look at those brakes, this car isn't even street legal. --dad says-- how do you think it got here.

-same show I heard guys arguing over the options. --It doesn't even have a radio, or AC, I would have bought a ZL1, the splitter is too low, horrible ride, you could never daily drive that car. (I leaned over, yes it has a cd player, nope to the AC, ZL1 is a good car too, splitter is low, ride is great, and I've got other cars to drive.)

-When are you going to replace the tires.
-Holy $hit the front wheels are wide.
-(and my favorite) Nice body kit.

I get that all the time. Folks that seem to know the car are stunned when I say, "The only thing that's not stock are the Finspeed wheels".

My biggest feedback comes from running track day events, since I don't drive the car much on the streets unless there's a track at the other end. I have been absolutely blown away by how much attention the car garners, and ALL of it is positive. First thing the track guys want to see is the engine, and they are impressed by how heavy-duty the build is. I get the same thing in the shops, where they always comment on how "industrial-strength" this car is on almost all the details. Typical shop comment is, "They really sweated the details on this car -- and they got it right!"...

+1

And... "man that thing looks mean / angry"

And honestly, I have yet to get a bad comment or complaint, and she's a daily driver for me when I'm home.

[Frankdt]

By far the most: "what have you done to the car?"

[Stephen12ZL1]

what brand cold air induction is that?
