A recent article brought to us by our good friends at Ecogeek.org, and ported by Yahoozie, stated:

"..... girls dig guys who dig environmental technology. According to a study done by GM (of all people) as part of this year's Challenge X competition:
1. Close to nine in 10 women (88 percent) say they’d rather chat up someone with the latest fuel-efficient car versus the latest sports car.
2. Eighty percent of American car buyers would find someone with the latest model fuel-efficient car more interesting to talk to at a party than someone with the latest model sports car.
3. More than four out of 10 (45 percent) 18-43 year-olds say it’s a fashion faux-pas nowadays to have a car that is not green or environmentally friendly."
So. Ah. Let's see:
A) My 911 Cab's current carbon base is near zero since it was built over 20 years ago and the earth has already recycled most of the carb's.
B) Its supercharger actually improves emissions since the forced induction improves the flame spread.
C) Its super efficient air conditioning system reduces compressor run times thus improves fuel mileage.
D) With the convertible top down it acts like a giant magnetic filling the cockpit with all sorts of man made particles which I can vacuum on a regular or irregular basis.
E) If you stare at this
RED 911 long enough and then look at the beautiful white clouds it's actually
GREEN.
Then again, who cares what the opposite side likes:
F) I'm married with four kids and a mortgage which will be left as a legacy
to my bank so I don't need any "spares" to haunt me.
G) If they don't like my car, tuff boogers. If they annoy me enough I'll leave the air conditioner running and make them immobile.
H) If they don't like my my 0-60 traffic light launches maybe I'll slam on the brakes and launch the extra baggage.
I) And what the heck does GM know about making and marketing cars? The last two I had were lemons.
