2 things I have noticed while driving

[gen2lover]

My rt.I had the car out alot the last 2 or 3 days since it has been warmer here in Ontario.

When you pull up at a light people will stay in your blind spot in the next lane so they can just GAWK at the car..I mean ALL THE TIME! Its actually funny.

And when you are driving people will just be smiling AT the car...like it was a person and they are just getting lost in its curves.

I have noted the following reactions:

1.) Young women: give you "the eye", the wink, the "if I weren't with him I'd hook up with you in a second" look.

2.) Young guys: big smiles, dropped jaws, quick reaches for the cell phone camera, thumbs up.

3.) Older guys: scowl of inferiority, quick look at wife to make sure she's not drooling, self conscious glance at their shiny Corvette that no one is looking at.

4.) Older women: Totally oblivious to the Viper, and any other supercar that might pass their path. Pull up next to them at the lights and they keep checking their lipstick and fluffing their hair. Probably thinking, "nice car" and then forgetting they ever saw it.


Granted, these are generalizations, but from my experience, most people fit into one of those three categories. Anyone got any others that I've yet to see?

Nobody notices a bright yellow Viper. I don't know what you're talking about.

Be careful watching people watching you. It's an easy way to get in a wreck.

 

[mike & juli]

Well said and I notice people drfting toward the car as they stare. The gen 1 and 2 really gets their attention as they are now rare and dont look so much like a Vett!

This thread is too funny, it really is true, I'm on the other end right now until I get my Viper.

I'm #2. I saw a 03-06 conv. Viper coming off the highway this weekend, and was like.................DAMN THAT'S HOT!!! Just 1 more year, I'm hurting real bad, Don't know how I'm going to make it.

No camcorder but I was down there on holidays (getting out of a week of the Canadian winter) and seen my first SSG viper in person, so of course couldn't help myself from taking a pic. I was walking on the sidewalk though, not driving
