After being PASSED on the freeway with the cruise control set at 74 in a 65. Literally the family car passed me right in front of the cop that we both apparently didn't know was behind me, pulls me over about 10 seconds later. Super nice guy, talked for a bit and then said I'm giving you a warning just bc I can't imagine what insurance would be on a car like this. Said have a good night and was on his way. Whatever, I'll take the compliment. LOL

Once I pulled up to the Whataburger menu to order and there was a guy out back cleaning. He apparently ran inside to tell someone else, because two others ran to the window and said, "I had to come see. Someone said there was a badass car outside." Then another walked out the side door to check it out.

Gave them a .


As far as people calling it a 350Z... I just don't respond until they get it correct or give up. Then I ask them, "The 370Z?"

Oh, and at the car wash I was having it hand washed and they pulled it around to dry it off. Guy next to me tells me (not knowing it was my car), "That's such an ugly colour. Can't stand it." and continued to ramble on about it. I just said, "I kind of like it myself." as they called my name and I walked to the car...

What a ****.

Damn, either you guys have some nice people around where you drive or I just am not driving in the right neighborhoods

Really surprised at all Porsche comparisons, really?? Maybe I need to swap my badge with Stuttgart's and no one will notice

I can't remember what he was driving, I think it was some sort of Cherokee or some ********.

I'm just happy I made him put his foot in his mouth.

But it's perfect here October through April!

No snow.
No blizzards.
No ice.
No hurricanes.
No tornados.
No earthquakes.

Just dust storms.
Monsoons for a month.
The occasional microburst.
Flash floods (easy to avoid though).
Mexicans.

I've not seen a black widow in ages, nor a scorpion. You won't unless you get a house on the outskirts where you're building over their homes.

I can stand a few months of 100's (and a month of that with 50-60% humidity) for the nine months of perfection we get.

I had some lady driving a newer Cayman pull up next to me at a stop light and say "hey, nice Panamera!" Uh, ok......... I said "thank you, but do you notice the number of doors?" Crickets and pulls away.
