Ever catch anyone take a pic of your car ? LOL

So im standing beside my 8 texting and waiting for food to pick up. I look up, a group of girls come by. ONe of them whips out her phone and takes a pic of my car. I kid you not i was not 3 feet away from my car lol. So i look up and fully book her doing the deed. Not sure if she knew it was mine lol. But it was pretty funny and made me pretty proud. I guess the way i parked turned out to be a good picture . I was parked on a hill infornt of a tree and there was an STI infront. Our front bumpers facing each other. Tis pretty much made my day LOL. I love my 8.

So this is the story:
Girl likes car, takes picture.
Girl notices you.
You are gay and don't ask her if she wants to come with you for a short drive.
She notices that and leaves.

Fail!

Seriously though, it is nice to have people still looking at our old cars!

Haha I was eating in a restaurant once with a full view of my car. Everyone that went in and out of restaurant stared at my car. A few guys even went around her stepping back and looking. I think it's because their rare in my area. Only know 2 other 8s in my area.

I guess it depends where you live. I have had this car for over a year and never caught anyone staring at it, taking pictures, or even walking around for a closer look. Where I am its not uncommon to see a lambo, viper(hardly any of these though), or one of the many many corvettes go driving by so maybe that's why lol.

Never caught anyone taking a picture of my car in the act. One night I was at a local fair in Ohio where I went to college and I had a random person who I never seen before and asked if I owned a RX8. The kid was like I took a picture of your car while you were at walmart. He then proceded to show me the picture ofmy car on his cell phone. It was strange the kid knew I had the RX8 when I was no where near my car.

Reminds me of a guy I knew who had a Ferarri . Whenever a girl ask to go for a ride he would always say yes but you will have to sleep with me.
He reackoned it worked more times than not ..........

I do know someone like that only it doesn't involve a car. He straight up asks girls if they wanna ****. Half the time he gets slapped in the face, or cursed out, but the other half the time they do it. So whatever works for you.

Why were you standing in the rain texting when you have a car to sit in???? Or didn't they have seats for you where you ordered food??? Anyway, how can you be so sure that girl was taking a picture of your car??? She probably had a mirror screen protector and was looking at herself...... Or maybe she was taking a picture of the STI.............. LOL

People take pictures of my car all the time (I park it on the street) and in NYC you get a lot of tourist foot traffic around my neighborhood so they are always snapping away lol

I know someone exactly like that. I was amazed at the amount of times it actually works.

I don't think anyone would ever bother to take a pic of my car, unless it was someone who was looking forward to getting the same car in the future. I do however, spot several individuals staring over my wheels... I guess they really like how cool they look!

I can only imagine folks taking snap shots of GT-R's, Veyron's, R8's, Lambo's, etc... I know I do, lol.
