A gentleman driving a C6 Z06 (yellow, of course) pulled up next to me in traffic and said he really liked my car. I was dumbfounded! I guess it makes sense that someone driving a Z06 would appreciate fast cars, but still didn't expect a compliment from someone driving a car at that level. Very cool!
There was no where to pull off the road, or I would have flagged him over so I could get a closer look at his ride.
I just traded my 03 ZO6 last week and picked up a Black SRT. While the Z was my 4th C5 (love those cars), this SRT is a whole different world, love it just as much!
I honestly can't blame him.. these cars have a style all there own. A Z06 is nice, but Corvette has had the same style for so many years. The 300, and especially the CSRT8 is something new to look at.. a fresh look. Style and the power to compliment it.

i saw a yellow zo6 and a silver steel csrt8 at a light, and was hoping they would punch it, and of course they did wow the srt8 was doing pretty well i must say,
anyone drive a silver steel srt8 and was on rt9 today ?
I've done the same while driving my C6. I pretty much don't care what nameplate is on a car, if it's a nice ride then.... it's a nice ride! I've even given Viper owners a wave or thumbs up while driving that car. Just don't tell any other Vette owners

I dont think this is uncommon- there are MANY high-end sports car guys driving daily aro in SRT8s...
Interesting that you chose the term "gentleman"... is that because he had a suit on? Or a bow tie?
