I bought my base couple brand new in 2005 and it got a lot of attention then. Everyone would want to see it or ask me questions about it. The years following it didn't seem to get as much attention. The comments came on rare occasions and wasn't very frequent. I keep it in the garage and rarely drive it. It is immaculate in every way and the black paint just shines like a mirror. Now all of a sudden I find that everywhere I go people are impressed with it. People look at it or make comments or gestures about how much they love it. This is now happening every time I take it out of the garage. I find that a lot of people don't know what it is. I even had someone say they thought it was an "exotic" car. I took it in for an oil change and everyone working at the dealership kept asking me about it. Even the mechanic that changed the oil was blown away by it. He said he wanted to buy it and asked me how much I wanted for it.

Anyone else notice an uptick in comments and compliments?

By the way, I know I should change my own oil and I used to. I just don't want to deal with it anymore and I don't want to dispose of the old oil. I bought my usual 0-40 mobile 1 and a filter. I had the dealership do it and they charged me $30 for the labor. The extra 30 dollars was worth it to me.
