Nobody around here wants to play when they hear the turbo. There was a C5 with a high school senior talking **** to my wife when she was at a gas station with my car. He was telling her how he didn't like the white stripes and how that the C5 would kill my ride. My wife calmly started my car, and revved it up slightly so he could hear the turbo spool and then asked him if he knew what that sound was. I was so proud of her! He walked back to Mommy and Daddy's Vette and started pumping gas.

I bet that thing is a world of fun on that boost. Wish I could have seen the look on that dude's face when he heard the spool.

i agree man that is badass, hopefully my wife is the same way! haha!

my current girlfriend knows a thing or two about cars and everytime some guy starts talking about their import she automatically steps in to tell them whats up and it shocks them everytime comin from a girl.

and you can always tell how much of an enthuisiast (totall spelled wrong) people are if their girlfriend knows stuff about their car and other cars they dont like!
