    We only get discounts on certain Corvettes. When the CTS-V first came out we couldn't get the GM, discount for like 3 or 4 months because I was thinking about buying one. ;)

    The XLR is excluded also.

    If you're buying half a million dollars of GM cars, I think the finance goons can give you some fan service.

    LOL, I would expect the Red Carpet, among other perks. ;)

    One thing is for sure, if you think GM makes better looking cars than the German or Japanese manufacturers, we never would have gotten into a fight over the same girl in my single days.

    Guess I never went for the Anna Nicole Smith look, with those big chrome ta-ta's.

    Just don't wreck the Porsche. $$$$$ :cry:

    Yet again i'm wondering if there's sarcasm i'm missing.
  • habitat1habitat1 Member Posts: 4,282
    Apparantly Anna Nicole Smith and her "my breast size is greater than my IQ" wannabe successors appeal more to the GM crowd than even I realized. So much for a unappreciated joke. :sick:
  • fjm1fjm1 Member Posts: 137
    If Anna = American
    We'll assume Heidi Klum = German
    Lucy Liu = Japanese

    Where does that leave the Korean manufacturers? Ru Paul?

    Morena Corwin.

    Morena Corwin

    Lucy Liu = Japanese

    Excuse me? Lucy Liu is of Chinese descent (Born in the US). That slip up will get you a busted kneecap (from her).

    But before I get implicated by anyone as being a sexist male pig for starting this, the point of my unappreciated joke is that Anna may have some of the biggest American ta-ta's around, but nothing of genuine substance that matters. Kind of like a chrome infested blinged up Cadillac Escalade. And that, is not my style.
  • fjm1fjm1 Member Posts: 137
    Yeah, Lucy's got mad skillz like you see in Charlie's Angels. I need to be on the lookout for her blinged out Escalade cause she spent her $500K at Unique Autosports.

    Will Castro is going to do a special on Morena Corwin's Giddyupidness, Huge Cabinocity, and Seat Flexology Kia Rondo. Maybe I'll add it (her) to my list.

    ;)

    Oh, i got it, anna nicole=escalade.

    I thought about it when a fine individual in an escalade was tailgating me with his brights on last night.
