Default V8 v. V6

A couple weeks after I bought my car I was at a stop light. I HEARD another car coming. Looked over at was a V8 Camaro. Gave me the look like he wanted to race. I'm not stupid. I'm in a V6 and I "heard" him coming. So yeah he took off I didn't even try. I knew he'd kick my ***. He slowed down, waited for me to catch up then took off again. Did that a couple times. The last time he looked at me, winked and blew me a kiss. I just gave him a disgusted look and shook my head. I hate show offs. If that was him trying to hit on me, didn't work. Maybe because I grew up with my dad driving a 9 sec car. Which will be mine when he dies.. Yay... Hopefully that doesn't happen for a long time though.

Back when I had a '98 T/A I bought it from a girl in her early 20's and she had 5% tint all around. She told me she loved racing people and then rolling down the window afterwards so they could see that they just got beat by a chick...pretty cool IMO. Point is not all chicks are car-stupid.

I think they mean pics of you, a girl on these sites is pretty uncommon so we need proof of your hotness.

whats funny is, you are all offended that a guy was attracted to you (however temporary it may have been) but your av shows a camaro and says 'tease'...i don't get it?
which do you want, men to treat you as a equal, or as a girl? you have to pick one

He has a really good point.

It wasn't necessary for him to try and race you, but maybe he thought you would talk to him. Who knows, are you hott? That would explain his reaction a lot more. Whether he was trying to impress you, or embarrass you...

This is what you have to do....you should get an LS1 Formula, change the exhaust to one single pipe out the back and take off all Formula badges so it looks like a V6 bird. Keep everything stock but get a 150-shot, then when you get someone trying flirt with you on the street.... leave him in the dust, then when they catch back up in confusion.. blow him a kiss

But yea, I have to admit, I'm guilty of flirting with girls in nice cars too, but I usually just smile, throw a rev and say "nice car" or something.

They must be the ones that like bigger things in life All the hot ones are driving LS1/V6 pontiacs/chevys.... All the fat ugly ones are driving mustangs... J/kin bout the last part lol.. they must not care bout the internet tho cuz they dont come on here

I know a really cool blond chick that was in the 11's last year that would probably loved to have handed that guy his ***. Oh well I've done some stupid things around beautiful ladies too, take it as a compliment that he was acting like an idiot in front of you, lol.
