Best Experience Ever

I was driving my smart through town today (Madison, WI), when I pulled up next to and about a car-length ahead of what must have been a new, white Corvette convertible with the top down.

When the light changed and we started moving forward, the lane with the Corvette took off faster and the Corvette pulled alongside. I couldn't help but notice that the driver's blonde girlfriend, sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't take her eyes off of my car, looking, it seemed to me, envious. (Yeah, in my dreams!)

Anyway, she stared longingly as the Corvette sped up and pulled away, and it sure did this middle-aged man's heart good.

Hey guys don't hate on Corvette's I used to have an 06 Red coupe 6spd . I wonder what the smarties think when I give them a thumbs up from my current car (a 07 Subaru Impreza Wrx Sti...Yes in the obnoxiously metallic blue lol). I guess I just like fun cars!!

Yes, don't hate on the Corvettes. My smart shares a garage with a 94 conv. and they get along just fine. As a matter of fact, they look just cozy together.

If you wanna pick on the SUV's a little bit I'm okay with that, lol. But show me another car that bone stock is in the mid 12's for the 1/4 mile, hits 0-60 in around 4.3 seconds, can go 186 MPH, and oh, mine got 29 HWY MPG. All I'm saying is on all the forums people pick on the vett's but show me something with better numbers, including fuel economy especially when you consider the power. Didn't mean to rant, I know its all in good fun, but I gotta defend my cars....
