I have found out over the years that the younger imature hot party girls 18 to 24 love the vettes , and the hot more sophisticated woman are into the ultimate P Machine, Porsches, and of course Ferraris and Lambos, and hot, top of the line Mercedez (all P machines).

I was driving my girlfriend home one night and sitting at a light a car full of girls pulls up and they start whooping and hollering -- one pops out of the sunroof and flashes me.

Didn't see too much because it was dark and I'm pretty sure she was kinda chunky - but the my Velocity yellow Z06 looks and sounds mean as hell.

I just pretended to be shocked for my gf -- long story short shes no longer my g/f and I'm happily single

Honestly though - I bought the car for myself, "how much ***" and "how many people i can impress" were not factors in the equation.

Most just think it's a Corvette, period. They usually can't tell the difference between a Base C6, a GS, a Z06, or a ZR1, in my experience.

I know this one b!tch that likes it

If they're not wearing any clothes, you don't have to worry about any scratches.

J/K, I noticed a lot more attention when I first got the car, people taking pictures, etc (this only 2 years ago, not like it was new) must be some ESP stuff going on.

It's a proven fact that Z06's make you 50% better looking.

My VY '08 Z gets me so many girls that I'm considering selling it. Or gotta get a script for Viagra. Hey I'm 59, not in high school anymore.

it is and it isn't. girls like the car and it shows you got some cash. but after the first date i always get, it's too loud, it's too low, it's too fast etc...... they love it at first then hate it as soon as the first date is over.

It's funny I haven't gotten any attention from woman 18+ in the Z yet. I get tons of attention from jail bait, but I refuse to make eye contact. I get guys who comment all the time 95% of it is good 5% nasty/stupid. In my Mercedes sl500 with the top down woman of all ages treat me like I'm a celebrity to the point I get a little embarrassed because it's sooooo over the top. I get attention from guys 30+ in the Mercedes aside from my friends in my age group. I look at it this way I only want the attention if I'm looking for it. Attention is often a bad thing.

Nah, the Viper is more so, but the best chick magnet is a puppy. Try carry a puppy in your Z for additional magnetism.

First fill up in my new-to-me 07Z. Hot chick gets out of lifted truck and starts asking me about the car. If that wasn't priceless enough, it was followed shortly by "bubba" the truck owner walking out of store with scowl on face.

I forgot to add, a female friend my age (mid 20s) calls my car the 'Panty Dropper'. She loves it.

In the interest of full disclosure, I'm 62, in decent shape, participate in races and duathlons.

I got my Velocity Yellow 2006 ZO6 in April 2010. The car is definetly a "magnet".

For men, its the fact its a ZO6, 427 engine, etc etc.

Women tend to react differently, mostly compliments on how "beautiful" the car is. I should say I'm friends with a very nice lady that owns a supercharged ZO6 and can drive circles around me.

I've gone to several "Cruise ins". As expected, the men talk about the car itself. Some of the ladies tend to act "differently". Lets just say, if I was single, I would not have problems with getting dates.

I'll task your patience with a "cute story" Last year I had to drive past the school campus on the way home just as the schools were dismissing. Most of the kids reacted like I was some sort of rock star, pointing, yelling etc.

Although my JSB Z06 gets it fair amount of attention, it is mostly from guys. I didn't buy it for attention though.
Occasionally at the gas station a few ladies have made mention that it is a nice car, I am in agreeance that most people, men or women can't tell the differance between the base model all the way up to the ZR1!
I've had more people come up to me and ask "Is it a Z06?" I simply point to the fender badges.
Badges...we don't need no stinkin badges! Sorry I got carried away.
