Well....I would say "fewer". Someone who is going to buy a car to (try to) impress chicks probably isn't the same type of guy who is a wrench-monkey (like most of us C3'ers). They're not "Vette guys"....but "guys who drive Vettes".

That being said, I've met more babes driving my work van than I have driving my Vette.

A few weeks after a co-worker bought my C5, he came in with a pic of the car with Hooters girls beside it. "This is the reason I bought the car," he said.

My wife used to have a '92 Miata, so she thinks I should buy one of those instead of a C3. (Not!) She said I shouldn't worry about my manhood - only the pink ones are gay.
