So, you wanna' picture of my car...
 
Get this, 'cause this is the freakiest example that I have encountered yet of people gawking over our cars:

I'm driving on the Baltimore Beltway (695) near the 795/Owings Mills Blvd. split, for those of you that know it. I'm just cruising along, about 60 MPH, when merging traffic puts me behind one of those Dodge Ram passenger vans with PA plates on it. So I'm following on for about 2 minutes when I can clearly make out shuffling going on inside the van, even though the windows are tinted. Next thing I know, someone's propped one of the rear widows open and is holding a 35mm point-and-shoot camera through the opening and snapping off pics of my car! Seriously, just a hand and a camera hanging out the back of a van trying to get a few shots of my car!

Well, traffic began to slow and the left lane opened up so I eased over and passed...but as I did, I could see it was a van full of kids waving and the father (I guess) giving me a big thumbs up as I drove by.

It's wierd being on this side of the coin...I've done a lot of car watching before, but have to admit I'm still getting used to being one of the drivers BEING watched! ;)

When I first got my car last July, I had people on the 5 south (in Laguna Niguel) take pictures of my car on two separate occasions. I thought it was pretty funny.

I'm still waiting for the girls to start flashing me, like someone else had happen to them.

I haven't had any flash me there breasts, yet...but I had a hottie one night in Fells Point (local bar scene) bend over, spank her a$$ and ask me, "Can IT get a ride?"

Sometimes, you just gotta' smile and leave it be, eh? ;)

The second day I had it, this black man pulled up next to me in a E-class Mercedez (sweet ride) puts down the window and says. "That ride is tight!" It put a smile on my face. Then he blew my doors off... If I wasn't breaking it in I could of taken him. Yeah right...

when i first got my 4x4 van people would fall off curbs and shit whatching it drive by.. The 8 gets a lot of eyes here in SB but most of the cars on the road here are Porsch, Mercedez, BMW..

SO i think alot of folks around here think its a toy.. Untill they cant see my Rear plate anymore :)
