"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
Help me pick a car.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

As far as buying a house instead of a car, its not THAT different. Just because the house might go up in value does not make it an asset.... if you live in the house it's not putting money in your pocket so just like buying a car, it's not an asset.
I would say wait around for a used c6 Vette.... in the next year or so a few should start popping up and you can get a much better deal on a still practically new car.

1st, the Z06 will be officially introduced in January and selected dealerships will be taking pre-orders.
2nd, What "principles" of the Z06 does the convertible go against?
I've heard convertible rumors from several reputable sources.
It's a consumer drivin-market.
Z06 owners have been wanting that options since the Z06 was introduced in the late-90's (Technically, the first Z06 was an option in 1963 which in part was a 36 gallon gas tank)
3rd, Not sure why anyone would ***** about IRS on a Mustang, since that old chassis was a platform that dated back to around the mid-70's or so.

Plus, with all the aluminum and carbon fiber and 500 HP, 100 lbs. won't mean much.
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Besides, with the Z51 package the current C6 vert has more than enough balls to mess with most cars on the road anyway.

My vote? Early to mid 90's used Acura NSX, and mod it up a bit.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
