in log gatos, a nice lady in her 40's said , --oh what a pretty Jaguar...
Since I have the new "powered-by-ford" badges on the side and no other markings ( other than a union jack , people ask if it is a english ford.
the other one was great, "whow that is a pretty ....hey what is that?"
and the radar cop -- "what the hell is a SPCNS>?"

I had a guy in a new Ferrari ask me what type of Jaguar it was. He spent the next few minutes telling me what a big car guy he was. Amazing..never mind the cost of a Ferrari you would just think a guy who owns one would actually know a little something about performance cars.

How many times have you heard.

The teens all know what an AC Cobra is because of the driving games for PS3, XBOX, etc..... Most of the games have a Cobra as one of the bonus cars you have to win races in order to drive. |

My poor lil Cobra's been called all kinds of stuff - Jaguar, Porsche, Corvette and MG to name only a few - but the one that cracked me up the most was when a guy I know asked me how's the Aston Martin.
