Where I am supose park there are 2-3 Maserati, Ferrari, Porsche, New M5 some benz's. I park outside since everytime I park inside the garage I tend to set off all their alarms. Still fun to see them look at my car then look at me. I can just imagine they are thinking "damn this is our network admin!?!". Been thinking of getting a Bike and I can't wait when they see me on that.

I fit the profile of an Evo/STi owner I guess, but people are surprised of what I own.

Anyone who knows me and knows cars is not surprised that I drive an EVO. Most other people don't really know very much about cars so they are neither surprised or not.. They don't know what the EVO is... Anyway, the average Joe or Jane only knows that MB or BMW or Lexus or Porsche is supposed to be cool or prestigious. Most of them don't even know the difference between a SUV or a station wagon or a 2 door sedan from a sports coupe. They only see the shape and the color... Anyway, what the hell do I care what anybody else thinks about my car?
