It is sad but true that people think they can touch or sit on your car's fender for a picture or to look cool.

I won't even mention the door dingers out there.

One time years ago before I was married I was picking up a date from her apartment. When we came out we found 3 kids using the highly waxed hood of my Vette as a slide.

Here is a bit more information. They've put serious effort into this car. Hurray for Dual Clutch tranny but no more manual offered. Aerodynamics are most impressive. I see lot's of Enzo styling cues in this one. This car will once again turn the automotive world on it's head when it comes out.

That is impressive.

I was thinking, I don't even dream in that league.

Awesome. Not sure if it is worth 2x the price of a 911 TT from the performance point of view but it is one sexy car that just drips "exotic automotive testosterone" from its exhaust pipes. Enough to turn adult men into drooling pimple faced teenagers about to get their first female "encounter". Excuse my while I go wipe the drool off my chin.....
