Pics from my trip to St. Louis (56k no no)

Well my dad is looking at getting a new sports car, so while I was visiting in Missouri we took a trip to St. Louis to check out some possible future cars for him.

First stop ws a Porsche dealership in search of an '05 Carrera, we didn't find exactly what we were looking for but we did find the Turbo convertable


Next stop was the Chevy dealership to look at the new C6 Corvette



On the way out we saw this poor neglected C6


Next was the Subie dealership to take a look at the '05 STi





Last stop was another Porsche dealership, we found the '05 Carrera we were looking for as well as something else


And hiding in the back was this beauty.












He's most likely going to get the C6

i wished my dad were cool like that. c6 is a sexy car, its pretty known older men tend to drive corvettes, its a classic american. that car can suit almost anyone from young man to grandma.

as for STi, seems like the crowd took the reputation of that car as a younger older man (18-28). but im sure that are plently of older drivers who make an actual use of that great AWD

the other 2...

If he buys a Corvette over the Carrera GT i will personally come over his house and beat the bajesus out of him

He should wait for the new Z06, that bastard has 500hp and will do 200mph

Well he wanted the C6 cause he said he's getting too old to drive a manual. It gives similar performance to the '05 Carrera for alot less money too. So thats what hes leaning towards right now

I think I might start hating you by this point.
That car will NEVER touch ground here in Puerto Rico.
EVER.
I was impressed they let a Skyline touch ground for the local Hot Import Nights.
Obviously, they had to push the car around, cuz they cant turn it on here. Luv GT-R's man...
Oh, btw, if he chooses the Carrera GT, I will fly from Puerto Rico over to his house and wash his car every 4-5 days.

w00t for St. Louis! I've been to all those dealers before. They used to have all those Porsches just sitting out there, neglected. I'm not sure if they still do that.

Hope your dad enjoys whichever he pics. You can't really go wrong with any of them.

That C6 looks hot. The ZO6 version will be coming out soon, so if he wants the best bang for the buck, thats the thing to get. Of course, those Porsches and that STi look nice too...
