For my wedding last weekend, we rented out a private dining room on the 71st floor of a 5-star hotel downtown, and I bought and had tailored a really nice Hugo Boss suit.

When I went down to valet to collect my BRZ tS, the head valet came running back to and said "Excuse me sir, can I see your ticket again, I think we got the wrong car."

Nope. It was the right one.

You saying they don't think people with class drive such a lowlife car?
You needed the RS2

Had a similar experience driving through Pebble Beach last December. One of the valets/guys handling an event gave me a grin and thumbs up as I drove past, but ignored my family's Mazda 3 hatch and other cars passing by, lol.

Was at the gas station and some guy in a truck came up to me and asked about my racing seats and how nice they were, I told them they came stock with the car, he seemed impressed.
