While pulling out of a parking lot a pretty girl with her window down yelled "nice Lamborghini! Follow me for my number!" During which my girlfriend who was riding with me glared at her the entire time.
I've also been asked countless times if it is new. At a thrift store I had a lady yell at me that I shouldn't be shopping there as she got into a brand new Camry that cost 3x what my vette did. I just smiled at her.

About 3 months after I bought my C4, I was at the gas station filling up. Some guy gets out of an old beat up Expedition on 28" rims and starts staring at my car. I just kept filling up while he walked in to pre-pay for his gas. He just topped off of the tank, so he finished before I did. When he was about to leave again he looking my car up and down again and looks at me and says, "Yo maaaan, it's fridaaay night and you drivin' uh VETTE! Shouldn't you be havin' some p*ssy up in dat b!tch?" That really shocked me and I was just left speechless. Apparently I took too long to answer because he walked up close to me and said in a low tone, "You ain't no f*ggot is you?" I don't know why that pissed me off the way it did, so for some reason I decided to do my best stereotypical gay guy voice and said, "Only if you are big man" and winked at him. I've never seen a guy's face turn white so fast and he literally ran to his Expedition and sped off.
I'm going to get shot for the stupid chit I do.
My fiancee thought that was hilarious.
And not a C4 story, but I was driving my grandfather's Torch Red C5 vert one day and a guy in a Miata came up beside me at a stop light and tried to make fun of me for driving a "girl's car".

A Mexican stopped the other day and ask if my Datsun 240 Z was for sale.

I have told this story before so skip to the next post if you desire.
I flew down to Atlanta around 2006 to pick up a red LT4 vert. It belonged to Brandt Kessler (96LT4) and was pristine.
I stopped at a Waffle House on my way home to Michigan and most of the crew and customers came out to look at it when I pulled in.
It seems that the Georgia state lottery had just given away a red C6 vert and those people thought I had won it!
My waitress brought my breakfast and said, "I don't know where you are headed honey but I want to go with you!"
She got herself a VERY nice tip that morning!

Pimply-faced, auto parts store kid looks up intake gasket for a 90 ZR-1 and comes up with ones for an L98. Nothing I could say would dissuade him, because, "This the exact part number in the computer for that motor!"
Cruise night in Morris,IL: "What car is that motor out of??"
Different Cruise night: Dude with a smirk, & GF hanging onto his elbow walks up. Dude: "Yeah, a "C4". My C5 (would run circles around it!")
Owner of a pristine Olds 442 sitting next to me: "Really? Do you have any idea what you're looking at?"
Dude, suddenly not sure of himself and his self-confident smirk switches to a perplexed look.
GF sees Dude caught off guard, sees the perplexed look and pulls away from his elbow. Dude sees look in GF's eyes... Look on Dudes' face...PRICELESS.
Dude at the 1/2 mile WANNAGOFAST shootout in Chicago last spring:
"I never even saw a C4 ZR-1 before. Where'd you all (FBI gang) come from? Why are you here??"

The ZR-1 cruise night story is the best story on the thread. I would have paid money to see that.
