Default Still looking for THE switch
I have had my VY 2012 GS Coupe now for 15 months. The chick magnet must be turned off and I have yet to find the switch/fuse to turn it on.

Suggestions?

Have you checked the fuses?

Spring break going on here and they all seem to want a grandfather figure.

Get another car, as the Vette is not a chick magnet, at least not the ones young enough to still lay eggs.

Time warp your body back 30 years, then step back into your GS!

It's the Velocity Yellow, it doesn't turn off, it only turns on!

I must have got your switch, because my Vette has two switches.
The Vette makes 'em wet.

Maybe your window tint isn't dark enough.

Buying any car as a chick magnet is a problem way past the help of a Corvette.

Just drive the damn thing and enjoy it.

I don't believe that the passenger seat in mine has had more than three or four hours of anybody seating in it.

Almost five model years old (2010) and 27K on the clock.

It's not what you have but what you do with it.

Need to run a test.
Park the car and get out of it.
If the girls come to the car, then you know it is not the car.
Now get back in. If no girls, then you found your problem!

A lot of the girls I've talked to around here absolutely hate the idea of a yellow car and the idea of a yellow sports car (for some reason) is even worse. Most have mentioned "compensating", so perhaps that's the problem - maybe they think you're all show and no go

Most of them prefer black and only black - you know what they say I guess lol
