I drove the Corvette grand sport recently and loved every minute of it. I giggled at the looks that it got and how fast it went! I live for speed and these pics remind me of the great time I had with the sports car. Happy thursday!

I test drove the Camaro V6 back in the summer time (click here)and I had an amazing time with it. We took the car to tybee island. When driving the car, I felt powerful,sexy and in charge! That car was perfect for our trip because it was a sunny weekend, the car color was rally yellow and we were going to a beach, how perfect! It was sunny skies and a great party weekend with good food,friends and family. Here are some things I thought of while driving this 2010 Camaro V6.

I had a Pinktastic afternoon the other day. I was invited out to take a look at the all new Buick Enclave plus meet the Director of Design. My assistant Pia and I pulled up to the Twelve Hotel at Atlantic Station,where the General Motor staff was there to greet us. The first thing we saw were 2  luxury crossover SUV’s . I liked the two colors and how they glistened with all the sunshine. It was a beautiful day for a test drive too.

2011 Buick Enclave

Director of Design Michael Burton and I

I was introduced to a very sophisticated gentlemen from Detroit,Michigan named, Michael Burton. I was very impressed on how well dressed he was. He told me he was the Director of Design for General Motors. I said, “wow, what a cool job!”. I was sent a few links and a bio about Michael and he also starred in one of Buick’s commercials in 2007. I started asking questions on how he landed the starring role.

Michael was very happy for the opportunity and said, “it was very cool”. They filmed for 5 days in Encino,California at a 7 million dollar mansion! He did a lot of creative directing in the commercial, picking out the vehicles used, the scenes and made sure they added his obsession with watches. He has lots of them and he was wearing a great Hamilton piece at or meeting.

He then talked with us about the Enclave and how he came up with the interior design. He spoke of how the car is very curvacious, the seats fold down for more cargo space, the arm rests, rear counsel, tambor doors, cup holders all with the very busy consumer in mind.

Loved Michael’s cuff links and arm candy lol

I was being funny and asked Michael why car designers don’t make more pink cars or bright colors. He told me, well the mass majority of consumers really wouldn’t buy a car in those particular colors,(he chuckled when I asked him that). There is a small market for them but most of their customers are conservative when purchasing a vehicle. He did inform me that they have designed pink cars for Mary Kay.I agree but had to ask, lol! I still want a pink car…ha! He told me that they look at trends to see what colors are fashionable and they take all that into consideration when designing.

Michael Burton has been with General Motors for over 11years with a degree in Industrail Design and has a Masters Degree in Organizational Management. I really enjoyed spending my afternoon with him. Enjoy Michael’s video below that aired June 2007-2008. Thanks to the pr team from GM, for inviting me out, I had a great time learning about Interior design and meeting Micheal!

Yes I have been having a great time driving the 2011 Red Corvette! This car is so fun and handles so well on the road. It gets a lot of attention and can go up to 200 miles per hour.I was driving home from an event yesterday when I noticed a hologram in the windshield. I was thinking what is that? I didn’t notice it the first day but quickly learned it was there all that time lol. Its green and it tells you how fast you’re going.

There is a speedometer in the car but this lil fluorescent light is built in the windshield so you know for sure. I guess because its a sports car you really need to watch your speed. I love how it purrs and I like the bucket race car seats. The roof pops off and becomes a convertible and I have been riding around to some great events in it with the top down. Its a great car if you’re single or you are an empty nester. The XM radio keeps me in a good mood as I ride down the road and if I get lost there is the handy dandy OnStar at your beck and call. I’m loving this Corvette,I’m going to have a hard time giving it up! Thanks GM for the cool ride to test drive! Check out the cute video below!

I just got dropped off the 2011 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible and my gosh am I loving it! I went around the corner in it just to try it out and it purrs like a kitten. I have never had a sports car that sits so low to the ground but I started to think of me in my hey day. I had a VW convertibles and I had no cares in the world. This car is certainly no comparison to a VW ofcourse but it reminds me of when I was young and free lol.

I know my son will want to take a ride in this car when he gets home from school! He is a car dude and I know he will like the color! It has no backseat, so you already know this car is for single people with no kids. I love the car so far,so check back with me when I take it on the road in a few! Toodles(praying I don’t get any tickets) vroooom!
