Default C5 = Chick Magnet?

I must admit that as a "chick magnet", Inferno has failed me miserably... must be my ugly mug looking out of the drivers window that scares them away

I have the "Dark" part - but I missed on the Tall and Handsome bits

Tint your windows, real dark!! Then talk to them through a small crack in the window.

On the other hand I enjoy having my windows tinted pretty dark so every Tom,Dick, and Harry are not checking out my wife when she is driving, they are checking out the car. At least that is what I tell myself.

Hit the gas pedal a little hard and I bet you could attract a 'chick' trooper.

What ever you do, don't pull the Prince Harry and wear a brown uniform. Chicks don't like that.

Don't feel all alone Stephen. Yes, the Corvette IS a chick magnet...but, I've had more than one beautiful young hard-body give the black beast a long look...and then see me and turn away!

Some things, even a vette can't fix! In my case, maybe it's the antlers!

Most women are NOT impressed one bit by cars, and the ones that are, own them.

Let your 16 year old son take the C5 to high school..... might work for him

My Vette is a 'chick magnet'. They always want to drive it (without me in it)!

When I First Got My Car,my Nieghbors Wife Commented That , That Car Is A Chick Magnet. Unfortunetly She Hasn't Been Right On That. It's Been More Of A Cop Magnet Than A Chick Magnet
