Default Age/Hook - ups???

Just wondering what the age of most of you guys was? If your not married did chicks dig the car after you got it? I've always owned rx-7s and they loved the speed of the car but the is300 is alot nicer just curious.

Age 51 ( no, I'm not kidding ). Solar yellow 2001 IS300. Part-time auto consultant. FAA employee. Licensed Pilot. Single, straight, non-gay white male. Yes, women like it......but NOTHING like the way young guys like it. They swoon over it like a shot of Pamala Lee in a G-string.

Flip, is this your first IS300 or did you have a previous one, too?...you seem pretty knowledegeable on the older ones.
The previous-generation Solara was a really nice car....I almost bought one. When I bought my 2001 IS300, the Solara V6 was my second choice. But I was a sucker for the IS's chrome ball shifter, chronograph gauges, in-line 6, longer warranty, and yellow paint.

25, single, and I dig the car. Unfortunatly chicks dig it too. It's kinda funny when there is a car with some girls in it next to me at a light they are all freaking out cause they think I'm a guy. It's hilarious to see the looks on their faces when I roll down the window and they find out they have been batting their eyes at another girl. LMAO. Guys seem to dig it too, and just can't believe that I mod cars. Haven't been able to pick one up with my car yet though. Dangit.
