Hey this is the internet and its the c7 subforum where things about the c7 are discussed. Well here is what happened last night with a very very pretty girl.

I was out with some friends having a few drinks and this 25 year old girl was sitting at our table. The guy to her left was about 55 to 60 I guess. He pulled out his phone and showed her a pic of a 69 Vette thinking it would impress her. She shook her and said I am not into corvettes at all sorry.

I felt bad for the guy but concerned myself after dropping $78k for my yellow stingray. So I whipped out my phone brought up my pic of my stingray and said what about this one? She smiled and said, "oh, I like that one WOW it looks exotic did you drive it here?" I said yes and she asked to see it so we went outside the bar leaving all the other gold rolex wearing guys holding their peckers with a duh look on their faces.

Showed her the car and she loved it especially guages changing with the driving modes. Then I said push the screen button the screen goes down exposing my 32 auto in the hidden compartment and she about freak'd on how cool that was. I thought about asking her about going for a ride then remember i have been married for 29 years and said well ready to go back inside. But it still made me feel good I could have. :woohoo:

So single guys get ready for a great return on investment and sorry for the story to previous model owners but you can pony up for one too its only money :D

Dude everything men do since 13 is to help get or impress chicks. And since we are getting older we need every advantage we can. (besides being almost 50 I work out and was best looking guy at the table anyway. :D

Speak for yourself

I don't know anyone my age (42) that is married that buys anything to impress woman, pretty immature if you ask me.

What ever you are into....

How did you manage to pay $78,000?

Um yeah they do, especially married guys (you may not admit it)--of course unless you're into guys, then that's another issue.

:iagree: 9 out 10 times I don't even take my vette when I go out and the couple of times I do I never mention what drive. Ive had really nice cars all my life and never used that ploy to pick up chicks. Pretty sad the losers that do.

He said to "impress" nothing about picking up. Guys buy a lot of things, married or not, to 'impress'. If you don't believe that you're not being honest with yourself.

No I don't believe that and don't put words in my mouth. I buy my cars for me, nobody else.

everyone is different, so to each his own. but, as a married man i don't do bars any longer, i'll go out to a restaurant with my friends. and i don't carry a picture of my vette in my wallet, its my wifes picture. and i certainly wouldn't be showing someone i don't know a 32. but thats me. :yesnod:
