Is "garage queen" a derogatory term? And what makes a car a garage queen?

Oh ya, a friend of mine has a V9. True story.

Yes. Unless it's just a show car. High performance cars sitting in garages is a such a waste. Also I'm a random person on the internet so my opinion is right and anyone who disagrees with me is wrong.

Why so sensitive about a queen? I like it when someone preserves a car for someone else. Low miles, only driven on nice days, allows someone like me to buy a car that took a depreciation hit and put it on the road.

Thanks. I have missed this place and I really miss my car. I drank a half bottle of Tito's vodka watching my car go under water!

I always tried to play nice, but some folks just ask for it! At this time, I put all of my car money into my house. So before the end of the year, I
plan on having some money for a car. The hand built LS3 in a 2013 Grand Sport Vette is what I'm looking at!

Thanks for letting me jack this thread!

Along the same line. Most likely it was a nice day, driving because you want to, not because you have to. Queens are everywhere!

I'm just trying to get the metric down so that i don't get labeled by the "real" men around here.

so If I drive it say...twice a week, still a queen?

how about If I drive it twice a week and throw in a 1320 run once a year?

where is the line or is it only up to anonymous users on the internet?

Listen Ma'am, no one is saying you're not a "real man" for not beating the crap out of your car every day cause you want it to be pretty and maintain that new car smell.

I'm kidding of course. Really, who cares what garage queen means. Its your money and your car.

DenverTaco07 · 10-24-2016, 10:04 PM

Lol...I'd be proud of a ZL1 garage queen.

Just having fun.

My beauty will be garaged pretty soon and I don't care what you ladies think about it.

Thor142 · 10-25-2016, 09:28 AM

I don't need no stinkin garage. It's for women to keep their purses in.
