Careful, your GM slip is showing.

It's just a saying. Literally, it means that a woman's undergarment worn under a dress (called a slip) is showing, but as an euphemism, it means that one has lost all modesty or self-respect.

One does not need modesty in order to respect themselves.

In the course of running a few errands later in the evening, I had no fewer than 4 "performance" cars (1 Camaro SS, 2 '05-'06 GTO's and one Challenger R/T) come up to me at various locations looking to have a contest of speed. I guess, given the sticker in the window, that they assumed the car was stock, just off the showroom floor and would be easy pickings. Imagine their surprise!

I'll have to do this again once the new Camaro's start hitting the streets. Given how slow a stock GT500 is perceived to be by many of those who go by mostly past magazine tests of the car, I can't wait to see the reaction of some of the owners when their new, 426hp Camaro gets smoked by a "just purchased" GT500.

Of course, there's a good chance I might get surprised in the process, as well, given the number of die-ahrd GM performance guys I know that are just itching to get their hands on a Gen5 SS.

? most of the time we hear that the GT500 doesn't handle too well but I don't remember anyone calling it slow.

Maybe I'm just getting too old...

...

When I'm out in the SS, I'm out to enjoy it, and yes, I will "stretch his legs" on occassion...but, I'm not out looking to race anyone, nor do I race whenever I'm challenged.

We have a local Saleen owner in town, who actually has a nice collection of cars, as well as a nice garage, which I'd very much like to check out. But. Every weekend, the guy drives up and down the bypass, all day, looking for a race. IDIOT.

I ignore every challenge to the SS. I'm out to enjoy my car, and beating another does not prove anything. As I've said in the past, there's always someone faster than you.

(and before the rebuttles begin, I'm not singling anyone out with my post.

I just don't get having to beat another car as a way of validation.)

Fixed it for ya'.

As for "they"; "they" may be a little frustrated right now, but not for long.
