Mid-life Crisis Car

So my rental car is a classic mid-life crisis car. It's a shiny red 2-door sports car complete with racing instrument package (complete with tachometer) and rear spoiler. It is also an automatic!
It reminds me of
appleang's father defense for owning three cars. Basically he loved his red sports car, but the clutch hurt his hip so he didn't drive it often. Seriously.
I mean, an automatic? As someone at dinner put it: "Feel the power as you shift into 'D'"
Maybe it was built under the premise that chicks don't notice the fact that it isn't a manual transmission from the outside. Still, you'd think if you were to actually try to get a blowjob from a girl who is impressed by red sports cars (especially ones made by Pontiac for christsakes) that she would in fact notice the shift reads "P R N D" rather than "1 2 3 4 5" and would realize the man's virility remains in question. Clearly this limits you to car-fetishists who are severely farsighted and wear glasses you can take off quickly.
Update: Thanks to
mouser for the perfect (if not work safe) visual to accompany my little rant.
