New ride..
for me.. They're garage queens meant only for disturbing the peace, car shows and teaching younger kids what real power looks like.

Thanks. I agree.. already thought about selling the AMG's and getting something else, maybe a 'lil bigger, since I have the stock wheels on brand new tires I can use during winter. All I wanna do is tint, AMG spoiler, and maybe some different wheels...

He is simply saying they are appealing on a modded, not so practical level.(Heads, cam, true duals with turndowns etc.) Stock f bodies are super fun DDs but not very comfortable in stock form.

I never understood the whole "grown up" feeling with cars.
If you get a car because you yourself feel your more "grown up" because of it.. uh.. yeah.
Maybe if your business depended on it where your a contractor/construction/etc and show up to a residential in a Corvette rather than a work truck (or on the other side of the coin, owning a body shop and not having a badass shop car to show off what you can do.) I could see it..
But if your seats suck.. spend the money and upgrade it... if your dash/interior is so "cheap" spend the money and get it wrapped.. if your suspensions bumpy.. spend the money and upgrade it.. but otherwise a car is a car.. and no one outside of enthusiasts or snobs really give two ***** what your driving..
Garage queens.. god that cracks me up. F-Bodys? Really?
BTW - A manual 2004-2008 CTS-V runs nearly the same as those (16-20k depending on options.) and imo looks hot as **** as a 4 door for doing it. (On your mom comment) I'm a single guy with no kids and would rock a murdered out CTS-V as a DD every day.
But on topic, that Monte is ******* hot.
