I saw this sweet looking turbo going down the road near my office pulling for gas and I pulled in to take a closer look. I was in the MB. It was a NICe looking 87 or 88. I asked the guy how many miles on it and he says "70,000 Sir." I then asked if he was on rennlist and he said "what? no im not Sir" I told him he had a sweet *** car, he then asked if I worked at the building he was pointing at and I said, yes. He says I see you AMG there all the time doyou have a Porsche and I answer yes, telling him on about the 968. We parted and I pull of only to get back to the office to feel more OLD than I have in I dont know how long. SIR !!! Im only 28.

Thats just being professional I guess. This guy thought I was old. Or am I getting old and dont want to admit it.

You get that sort of respect with a Merc - you'll also find that some prices go up. You wont believe what they want to charge me to do the wife's 280CE headgasket

I work at Lord & Taylor's and it is a requirement for employees to address customers as sir, ma'am, or miss. Otherwise, we get fired for being unprofessional.

I like being called "sir" in most cases it's a sign of respect.
