Thats actually CORRECT because over 78% of women have flawed thinking so we only really want to meet that 22%

Actually in all seriousness thats probably right. A lot of people see a guy younger than retirement age in a newer Vette and they think either mid life crisis or Mommy and Daddy bought spoiled junior a toy. Not as likely with older cars.

If you want to attract the 22% of good looking women then you take the vette, if you want to attract the 78% of two baggers, take the honda.
