The comments generally don't bother me, except for the "How much did it cost?" comments. I was taught that those types of personal questions are rude.

The comments about the car get old, but they certainly don't upset me.

I drive the car for me, not for people to see me. That is evidenced by my habit of driving my car weekly, but only washing it every 6 months, whether it needs it or not.
