I agree... getting a big increase in head turns lately, especially in downtown Baltimore. My favorite comment, though, is still about three years old, from a pack of guys sitting in front of a barber shop on York Rd. in Baltimore (not the best neighborhood). I was stopped at a light; freshly washed and polished. They were shooting the $hit. One of them saw my car, broke off the convo, and instantly yelled out "Scarface, muthafu&cker!" Followed by "Oh $hit, he can hear us," when he saw me smiling (windows were down). Priceless.

My first comment was the second time I drove it last weekend. I pulled up to the valet and I asked the young kid if it was OK if I just parked it myself right up front and he said no problem. When I got out he said "nice classic".

Considering that the car is probably nearly as old as he was.....reasonable comment !

You can all thank me to a degree since I have been rice'ng my 928 s4 out a bit... : ) which I know you all love....but it does get the attention of the youth, mid 20's and such...so I am doing my part with the younger generation while you Old F$rts (no insult intended) do your part with the older croud...
I always liked younger hotter mid 20's woman anyway...just something different about them then 40+ woman.. : )

I often take people for short spirited test drives in my 80Euro. The most common comment is "Holy &^%$" How old is this car?!?!? They all seem to enjoy being shoved back in the seat when I spin up the tires in second gear. It's got stock exhaust and a bit of a whine from a bad release bearing, and they all say it sounds and feels like a jet taking off. I really like my OB. What really turns heads is when my 21yo daughter puts her foot in it. That apple didn't fall too far from the tree...
