My former convertible was Velocity Yellow. Someone called it "midlife crisis yellow" which I thought was pretty funny.

I always have a few responses chambered for the *** clowns trying to rain on my parade. Please feel free to use any or all of them:

1. Your wife doesn't think I'm having a crisis.
2. The only life crisis I know of is living your whole life never owning a Vette.
3. Go F yourself.
4. You drive a Camry, now that's a crisis.
5. My car is not a replacement for my *****. My ***** has well under 200 horsepower.
6. I'd like to have an intelligent conversation on the topic. I'm just waiting for someone with a brain to show up.
7. Go F yourself again.
8. It's the new Chevrolet economy car.
9. (If it's a female) How many different positions do you think I can get you in without taking off the targa top?

Bottom line ur ability to purchase a $50K sports car will be attractive to the opposiet sex.

Women are very competitive and its very hard for them to accept the fact that other females will find this attractive.
