LMAO guys - I don't have to share my vehicles, but cool you guys found women that do. Most of them I meet know what a Camaro is, never heard of a Monte Carlo, and have no clue what an "SS" is.

Congrats on the purchases guys ... my salesman has a TBSS Taz - damn nice vehicles!

I always wondered how car savvy those girls are. I wondered if hanging around a 12’ pole all night might limit their automotive education

I heard there's a place in Detroit where a 60's Corvette comes down from the ceiling ... thinking it was blue or silver in color.

I don't think so. Look at the last pictures. Rear drive spinning both tires. That would fit with the rear drive 09 with bigger v8.

There's some debating on that site according to malibu vs. impala, but that car pictured is significantly longer than the malibu.
