Start Me Up

You don’t need switches for this ride

Have you ever rolled up beside a Corvette at a stop light and been mesmerized by the pure sex appeal oozing from it? You’re not alone. Why else do middle-age men go for the candy-apple red Vette when they begin to notice their thinning hair and sudden need for Viagra? We hear that nothing cures the man-opause blues like a Roadster, Sting Ray, or supersexy Spyder. But don’t take our word for it. See for yourself today at the 14th annual Corvettes in Paradise show at Holiday Isle Resort.

The Florida Keys Corvette Club is rounding up its members and other sportscar lovers for an auto showdown. There will be prizes for categories like Wash and Show, Custom, and Special Interest. It’s free to look, but entry fees range from $20 to $40. The show takes place from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. More than 75 Corvettes from 1954 to 2007 have already entered, so hurry up and call 305-872-9641, or visit www.flkeyscorvetteclub.com to reserve your hot rod spot.
