I got a few comments when I first got my SS, not many lately. One was a lady who liked it, her husband was just like "great, now I gotta buy my wife an SS." Most of the other comments were from older men who used to have Impala SS's back in the day. They're always pleased/surprised to hear they're back putting V8's in them.

I have an 06 Liquid Silver Metallic GXP and I get compliments on it pretty regularly. Most people who notice it, walk by or look at it and are trying to figure out what it is. Then when I start it up, people will ask "Is that a V8?".

I have even had a couple of people follow me into a gas station just to ask me about my car.
