Default Rental car

Today i drop my s at the body shop for a paint job(got keyed on driverside) The shops gonna repaint the front bumper,side fender,left door,back fender,back bumper and hood. I drop the car off this morning and was gonna pick up a rental they had prepare for me. A buddy of my just got his Audi s4 side fenders repainted a week ago at the same shop. We both have the same insurance company. Well when he drop his car off, the rental company(enterprise) gave him a Black Dodge charger. Today when i got there they handed me a key to a 2004 metalic blue PT Cruiser . I just stared at it and was shaking my head(Im not hating on any PT owners, this car is just not my cup of tea) The lady from enterprise could tell in my face that i was about to dash back in my s and drive off as fast as i can, but i look back at her and tried to smile back without thinking bout how silly ill look when i return back to my apartment and have to part inbetween a Bmw 135i and Infiniti g35(my neighbours). I bit my tong and handed my keys to the bodyshop and took the PT keys from my enterprise representative . I drove off the bodyshop lot and was just looking at all the cheap interior . I miss my s already and it hasn't been but like 30min since I handed my keys away. I made it till noon and I just had to call back to my representative at enterprise and ask if i can get a different car. She knew right away what i was gonna ask when i was talking to her and she offer right away that if i wanted something more to my liking(knowing that i drove a s2000=sportcar) she told me to bring the car back tomorrow for somthing else . So tomorrow i hope to get some more enjoyable while i wait for my s. When i get my s back I'm so gonna my s hard for leaving me with a PT cruiser. I hope the ppl who keyed my car are having a bad time cause i sure wasn't having a good time.

Thanks for listening, I just had to vent somewhere
