Every cool mom needs to make time for cool dates. Doing as I preach I set out on a key lime sampling expedition date with Sr. Cool. Our compass was set to the Florida Keys for some top down driving in a beautiful Daytona Sunset 2016 Sting-Ray corvette. Woohoo! A beautiful and amazing performing machine that exceeds expectations! Corvette and Key Lime Pie plus a date… this girl is in heaven!
I have to say, driving and riding around in a Corvette is on my “you must” recommendation list to my friends. More so, if you are a lady car enthusiast like me. The experience is exhilarating!
The car is striking beautiful on the outside. You will be turning heads in it for sure. Once you power this baby up, all I have to say is ohhhhhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhh. What a way for that engine to roar at you ready for adventure! With a touch of a button, the top was down. I just loved that I didn’t have to do a thing besides pressing that button.
With 460 horsepower and all the car muscle we needed we drove under the amazing South Florida sun with the peace of mind that the car’s safety features like heads-up display for us to read important information without taking our eyes off the road. Yes, I guess once a mom you always notice these things. The car drives like a charm, smooth and effortlessly while showing off all that power under the hood.
10 slices of Key Lime later, we share with you our favorite spots to drive the Corvette down to indulge our sweet tooth:
- The Blonde Giraffe
- Key Lime Pie Company
- Little Palm Island
- Sundowners
- Hobo’s Cafe
Trying to get taste that many slices took some hustling. The keyless entry was an added benefit for our Key Lime Pie marathon, as was the trunk where I can load exactly what I need for the day. Great to eliminate extra mess.
Every detail in the car makes it elegant, sharp and a brilliant driver-oriented car. My favorite feature is a not so secret compartment in the dash of the car:
Honestly, just about any excuse will do to drive around in such a superb fun American car. Needless to say Sr. Cool and my little car expert were over the moon. My little expert loved the 6.2L V8 engine and told me all about the 3.7 seconds needed to go from zero to sixty!
Now it is your turn, what type of date would you create for a Corvette ride around town?

Wow Mama that is a sweet looking Corvette! I would be happy to have that as my personal grocery getter… The sweet pie would be delicious to! Maybe I will come for a visit!!!
What a beauty!! I’d love to take that baby for a drive!
My dream machine! Gorgeous color and I like very much the combination of a Corvette and key lime!
Mmmmmm it’s been a long time since I’ve had key lime pie–now I must have some! And that corvette is gorgeous!! If we had one to drive around in for a date I think I’d probably take it to the coast for some ice cream and wave watching.
I have to say that I am incredibly jealous you got to drive around in this car! Corvettes are my ultimate dream car! That pie looks pretty good, too!
Gimme that pie!!!!!!!!!! Soon yummy looking!
