thewheelman Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 My youngest son already refers to the GT 500 as the "fountain of youth" for my wife and I (we're 52), but tonight I was 17 again. After leaving an evening meeting, I dropped the top and turned the stereo up. A couple of young guys in a Roush badged coupe turned nearly around in their seats gawking at the car as I pulled out of McD's. At the next intersection a kid in an 80's something Camaro eyed me across the intersection while we waited out the light. I got the green first and as I crossed, he was gunning the Camaro--loud pipes, like glass packs--as I met him. I just grinned, snapped it down in second and lit the tires just enough........he got the point. Yep, 17 all over.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherri Leicht Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Isn't it great that we don't have to grow up Love to see the look on young faces, men too, when they are drooling over the car and the old lady gets out. Priceless!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northportboss Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Us gals like our toys as well! I especially like cruising next to younger drivers and watch their jaw drop at the sight of a chick in a SHELBY! Even better when they try to beat you off the light - too funny. They never learn.
