Talking This ever happen to you? Made me laugh..

Last night I was driving with my gf to see another friends band play out in Levittown.. It was around 7:00pm or so, and I dropped the top, kicked on the heat, and started down my block towards a major artery to get to the Southern State Parkyway.. When all of a sudden I hear the voice of this little kid yelling out to me... At first I was expecting some wise crack about it being 40 or so degrees out and having the top down, but this little kid yells out... "Hey dude..... Nice car!" I paused, laughed a little, then yelled back "Thanks!!"

Both myself and my girlfriend were laughing.. I guess you had to be there, but it goes to show, there are some little kids out there with taste!

Ive had it happen a few times? Normally not "kids" but teenagers... Kids normally stare but don't say anything... Its always a huge compliment to get, and always makes me smile.

But top-down at 40? crazy.

Top down all year round unless it's raining and I need to make a short, local trip.. Or it is snowing.. I drove home from North CT yesterday morning in 30 degree weather.. Shorts and a T-shirt..

Saw a Ferrari 360 Spider, also top-down, headed in the other direction, so I felt like I was in good company.
