Bad influence

Good morning fellow Corvette owners. Every morning when I walk through my garage to go to work I just stare at my car. I feel like I'm being seduced by it and it's saying stay home and let's play. I jump in my company car and as I'm pulling out of the garage I just stare at it thinking I can't wait to get home I love it when I start the car up and it just sounds pissed off. I have owned some pretty cool's cars in my lifetime. My last car was a 2014 Mercedes SL AMG 65. It was expensive, it was fast but it was a very understated car. My 2017 Corvette GS is way more aggressive looking. I have only owned my car for one week now and I stopped at the gas station to fill up my car for the first time. I come rambling up to the pump step out of my car to fill it up and everybody is just staring at the car. It was like she was seducing everybody at the gas station. When I started the car up and she sounded pissed off like usual one of the guys filling up their car said that is a bad as car. This car is like that hot looking woman that walks into the restaurant and every guy looks at her and says god what I give for an hour with her. I'm thankful that she's a faithful woman and I'm the only one that holds your fob LOL

It's a never ending seduction.

I think our cars are like a Medusa. If you stare at it too long, it will eventually get you (to call out sick and go around driving it, lol.)
