I dedicated my entire day to be with the car, I went to pick it up in the morning went back home to drop the covers, checked the oil etc. and off I went.
Even though it wasn't all that warm at 8C it was an event alright. From the thumbs up, at least 2 kids and one guy staring with mouths gaping or people motioning to rev it (which I don't do unless it's for kids) and the comments throughout the day. One guy said "very nice car but I prefer red or black". I was also followed several times on the highway. Sometimes though it was a nuisance when they stay side by side trying to look in or try to show off trying to race you. Back on the streets I saw a woman frantically searching her purse to find her phone to take a picture.
I was at a red light and a cop outside his car pulling security duty was snacking on something while checking the car out, that was amusing looking at him in the rear view mirror, he wasn't paying attention to his functions. I wish I had a vanity plate that read "COPBAIT".
Again on the highway a young woman as a passenger was frantically waving to me me and smiling. I went shopping to a few places and cars were circling around the vehicle or taking pictures. I also had a motorcycle following me to take a look weaving traffic to keep pace for several streets. I waited for darkness to go out for dinner, I parked on a quiet dark street and walked to my favorite restaurant.
On the way back home a pickup truck pulled over to let me pass then proceeded to pursue so I went in side streets to deter him from following me.
What a day!
