I know it's been done but worth continuing. Today - 4yr old points at my scruffy VX and says to his mum 'look mum a Lamborghini!' Mum replies, 'don't be silly son. You won't see a Lamborghini in Saltburn'. Class.

- Four year old kid walking past the car with his dad: "Dad, when i'm older i want a Ferrari like this!" (the car is red).

 

- Old guy with some 911 at the tire shop commenting while i was sitting in the car: "Well, if you are getting any taller, you won't fit into that car anymore..." (i'm 173cm).

 

- Two guys in the work parking lot walking around the car while i had a smoke outside:

Guy 1: "What kind of Ferrari is this?"

Guy 2: "I don't know... i've never seen this kind..."

Guy 1: "It looks fast..."

 

- Guy at McDonalds drive-through while reaching down to hand me the food: "Ahhh, my back is killing me!" (while making a gesture holding his back and smiling at me and the car).

- Ex-GF: "If anybody wants to know how a starting plane feels, they should ask for a pax ride in this car...".

Yesterday by a 10yr old.... 'is it a vauxhall mono ?'

[Acidpopstar]

'Wow! Nice car mister! Rev the engine! Do a burnout! Go on, go on!' numerous kids age 6-16.

 

Son to dad 'wow dad that car's awesome!' Dad: 'ah it's just a go-kart son you don't want one of those' (clearly did).

 

Countless snapped necks and 'WTF!' forming on pedestrians lips as I drive past.

 

And the conversation at the petrol station I never tire of: 'What's that?' "a VX220', 'eh?', 'a Vauxhall VX220', 'eh?' *sigh* 'You know the Lotus Elise...' etc
