You are driving down a street, see people walking and as you pass them and look in your mirrors their heads have turned to look back at your vehicle? This happens to me all the time. Anyone else observe this?

After all was said and done, more was said than done!
Yes, I think we have all experienced this from the public at one time or the other, glad to see the Volt getting the attention it deserves....more and more people are finally "getting it"

I also notice people turning heads when they think I can't see them watching ;-)
It also seems that the silent running of the Volt has a contaminating effect: people stop talking when they see the car
passing by - making a deeper silence!
The little price hike of the gas around here seems to stirr up interest in fuel efficient vehicles, especially the Volt.
I wonder when GM will port the Voltec drivetrain to other segments, like a SUV and a minivan?

This happens all the time. The gawkers can actually be dangerous because they lack focus on their own driving.

Yes, all the time! We've pulled up to stop lights or passed people on the highway that will stop what they're doing, gawk and stare at the Volt, and if they have another person in the car they'll start point out to them and start talking about it. Enjoy the attention that people give this car (:

I have had several pull up next to me at a light and start asking questions.
I haven't noticed that . I did notice a few people driving give me a glance . When I got out of the hot springs last week there was a yellow post note on my car . Written on it was : " I love Harry Potter "
