Went to Vegas this weekend..
1. Valet Parked at Wynn hotel. The valet driver was like woah what car is this?! Looks nice! Also when they pulled my car from the valet I heard people exclaim wows. 2. Valet Parked at Mandalay Bay. Valet was full so I pulled up and asked if they could make an exception since we wanted to hurry and get into a nightclub. The valet staff said they'll make an exception, let me in, and told the car behind me to turn around. When I came back I saw my car parked right in front of the hotel next to a whole bunch of nice cars including Ferraris and Porsches. Yeah this weekend was definitely an unexpected big ego boost.

Most of the time I pass high school kids doing car wash for fundraising, they cheer and yell out, "NICE CAR!"
The most memorable for me is when I was on my way home. There were kids no older than 10 years playing in a driveway all stopped what they were doing, stared at the car, and started claiming, "That's my car!" |

Was at the hardware store getting ready to leave. This 80 something year old lady was getting into passenger Side of the car behind me when she spotted my car. She completely stopped and stared at my car. Watched me as I drove out of the parking lot. I should have gotten her digits....Giggity Giggity goo

Was at my kids karate dojo and a 30 something guy kept walking around my car and looking at it (he is the father of one of the kids). I told him the car was mine and that I loved it, and he knew all about the car (handling, weight, low COG, etc) and was really excited about it. I told him I would take him for a spin sometime.

I can't fuel up at Costco without one of the attendants or another person gassing up walking over and chatting me up about how much they love the car. It's literally every time.
