"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
06 Pontiac GTO?

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
When looking to buy any used car, check the mileage. For a 3 and a half year old motor, I'd expect no more than 45,000 miles. Check for leaks, electrical problems, suspension, (which is really not impressive in the recent GTO's). Get a Carfax report, and remember, most states... you buy AS IS!
Edit:
I guess I was a bit generous with the mpg.wiesman44 said:

Two thing that might happen in the future that would affect you are the price of gas going back to the $4/gallon range, and also GM going under, or at least Pontiac going under. Parts and service could get harder to find if that happens. And certainly I would not buy a warranty from a dealership, because if they go out of business, they don't have to honor the warranty.

I was looking at the G8 sport truck. I always wanted to buy a modern el camino but alas these are the primary reasons why I won't be getting one...well that and it's NEVER going to make it to production at this point.Bible_Belt said:
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

You can find many GTO's with less than 20k miles mostly because they don't use it as a daily driver. Also, we don't know if the OP wants a manual
I love my GOAT. She gets plenty of looks, and is fast. Next up for me are headers. Soon as I get some headers on there, its gonna be great.
