Sonic = Lambo??

[Emersonic]

So...I was filling up the Sonic at the local full serve, and the girl/woman (over 25 under 35, probably a looker in her day, not bad now) looks at my car and says, "Hey, cute car! What is it?" I tell her. "I haven't seen many of these. Nice wheels." Who knew!?

So I go inside to pay, and the owner says "Hey! When did you get that? Looks cute! Nice wheels!" I tell him and offer a "haha...thanks" (it's a Sonic, not a Lambo) "What do the factory wheels look like?" ...Crap, I tell him. "You should change these to your summer wheels." Too much money, might as well buy a new set of wheels. "Nice car" he says again...

Hmmm...who knew - both women and men attracted to a little Sonic...better let my kid know he might be getting hit on as he starts driving it more. Never mind getting that Mustang son...just drive the Pipsqueak. Girls love cute little cars.

I get the "Oh that's a cute car!" every now and than..It makes me what to hurry up and get my motor back in my wagon so I can do burn outs and feel manly again.

I had someone come over and start asking me about the Sonic as he wanted one. Also had someone that lives by me with a Sonic Sedan flash his lights at me one night.

I've owned many cars and never before did anyone give a crap about them until now.

Someone needs a new lady (and listen to some "Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats").

i'm going on 50, and most of my friends look down at my Sonic - screw 'em, love this little car!

 

[Thaifight-R]

wow. haha
For most people (namely at car meets)

When they first see my car:

When they realize that it is boosted, and running 23psi of boost (Trifecta Tune):

I'm liking my Sonic more as I rak up the miles...still not impressed by the barely over 30 mpg (under 30 US mpg) for mostly highway granny driving - but it's a good solid little car. Quieter than the Accord we have at work (who'da thunk!?) and it's kinda zippy really. No problem breaking the speed limit. 3rd gear so tall I can't recall how fast it was doing. 4th at 6250 rpm is way more than I thought they'd let it cap out at (and it was still going and I hadn't even gotten 5th yet). That means it would outrun my truck, after it caught up at least...which sucks really. My truck needs its limiter removed ...wonder if OnStar will send that little bit of info on the next monthly report..."do you know your car was going X fast?" Uh...yeah, I wanted to see what it would do!

Thaifighter- that pic illustrates the sonic very well among people that know (or think they know) cars.

At 24 years old I catch a lot of flak from my friends, but eveyrone that's ridden in it comes to like it very quickly. Older people really like th car thou.

I just enjoy the mileage of the Sonic and keep the man card with the Harley and Sierra.
