Nice Compliment Today
Out to lunch at a downtown casino (Main Street). Pulled up to the valet. Got out of the car. White haired well-dressed grand-motherly woman exiting the casino abruptly stopped walking near the front of the car and looked it over very closely. "My-o-my, that is one very sharp looking car." She says. As I thank her, to the valet she says, "Be careful with that. Not too fast. It's way too pretty for any shenanagins."
Isn't it great to drive a car that's so good looking and attracts attention!
So what is the rest of the story? Did the valet guy/gal take it cruising down the strip while you were having lunch?

In reply to the video, dear god...
Glad I never valet park my car.
As for looks, living in Illinois/Chicago and driving my XF all year round... not to mention leaving it dirty when I don't have the money to wash it... I don't really get too many compliments unless it just came out of the wash.

That video is crazy!! I was cringed the whole time waiting for the crunch sound when a car hit a concrete pole.
I drive pretty crazy, but no way would I spin around in a place with that many support beams.

A while back when I had a good job working for a record company my boss and I and some label folks were at the Palm having dinner. My boss drove a beat up old Volvo, he looked like his car, not the best of shape and an extremely funny guy. After a few drinks he got kinda nuts and when we left the restaurant everyone was in a good mood and joking around. The Palm has valet parking so we all tell the guy what cars we had and when we get to my boss he says "the red Ferrari" being a clown that he was and hands the kid his valet ticket. next thing I know they valet pulls up in a red Ferrari and starts to get out of the car, he had to tell him he was only kidding. Mine was the last car and the valet says to me "so was I"!

==================== Help i don"t get it!
================================
he meant that his boss had to admit that the red ferrari WASN"T his car, making him look like a fool. Or take the Ferrari anyway.

Its about valet parking. Thought it kinda tied into the video which made me cringe and why I dont valet park my car. My big fear is what's in the video or they give my car to someone else. Understand?
OK, back to the compliments on the Crossfire...........
While driving along Pacific Coast Highway a while back, I'm cruising through Laguna Beach when I pull up along side a woman in a nice old VW Bus. She looked like an older hippie, driving the perfect hippie vehicle in an admittedly artsy, hippie kinda seaside town.
She honks at me and says "You know, I see a lot of very nice cars driving along here but most of them don't really do anything for me. But this car, this is one very sharp car. I really dig this car, it's gorgeous". I thanked her kindly and drove off as the light turned green.
As for "a lot of very nice cars" along that stretch of road, on the weekends it's loaded with Bentley Continentals, Aston Martins, Ferraris, Lamborghinis and more Porsche 911s than you can shake a stick at.
Nice.

Grandma types and older hippy chicks. Might as well drive around with my wife! Need some more stories about 20-somethings flashing their tops and begging for a ride. If it wasn't for fantasies, I'd have nothing!

Funniest one was this girl who was very attractive and I had known for a few years, but only talked to every once in a while. I went to pick my brother up one day at school and she saw it. You would have thought we were best friends, she wanted to talk to me all the time and "somehow" all of the conversations would end up with, "do you want to go cruise around town tonight?"

And yes, I did.
A few months ago I went over to my bosses fiance's place to look at her computer. The cd drive wasnt reading. Anyway I have known her and her kids forever. Im about 6 years older than her daughter. Any way some of her daughters friends came over. Both of whom are college girls 18-19. First thing they wanted to know was whose car that was in the drive way and who could go for a ride first
and yes they look as good as my Crossfire.
