Not sure why it bothers me.... probably something to do with my OCD.:willy

Maybe it's because of the arrogance some of these people tend to present their cars with... and my car might not be the nicest one, but it will certainly never have one of those little signs on it.

Understandable, there are those who present their cars with a bit (or a lot in some cases) of arrogance.

Actually had a guy open the door after I had gotten out of the vehicle at a high end eatery. I had to laugh for he was innocent and in awe so I couldn't get upset although the rest of the crowd sort of gasped when he did it. He went on to ask some very inteligent questions and happened to be a very nice guy, I guess the GT aura just brought out the stupid in him!!!:biggrin

some people touch the cars ... I cant stand it, but I feel like such a dick having to tell them not to touch it , they always seem to get offended. ?

EXCUSE ME??!! YOU feel "like such a dick" telling these STUPID, INCONSIDERATE, JACKASSES what they ought to KNOW not to do WITHOUT being told at all???? YOU don't wanna "offend" (uuuuuugh!)THEM??????? WHAT?????!!!!!!! Aaaaaaarrrrrrrgh!!!!!! Get over THAT!!!!! They OBVIOUSLY couldn't care LESS about YOU. could they??????? WHO'S BLOODY CAR IS IT ANYWAY?????

EVERYBODY has been told ( hopefully over & over by one's own parents & if not, by a TEACHER at least ONCE) to keep their stinkin' paws OFF of someone ELSE'S stuff!!!!!!!! THESE CLOWNS KNOW BETTER!!!!!! THEY ALL - ALL - KNOW BETTER!!!!! THEY ARE SHOWING NO RESPECT FOR YOUR PROPERTY AND NO PERSONAL RESPECT FOR YOU!!!!!! SCREW 'EM IF THEY'RE "OFFENDED"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY'RE MORONS!!!!!!!!

Sorry, there Outlaw (...pant ... pant ...pant), but I get a little HEATED about these fools!!!!!!!! (deep breath ... exhale ... repeat ... AGAIN ... aaaaaaaahh! There! That's more gooder!)

The ONLY PEOPLE I allow to touch my car are blind folks. Seriously. They can touch it all they want, and I'll even guide there fingers to whatever they want to "see". Their life SUCKS enough as it is, and "touching" is the only way for THEM to "see" anything. So, I have NO pblm with that. I'm not going to stand in the way of them "seeing" something they want to "see". THEY always try to be as careful as they can when touching ANYTHING belonging to others anyway.

BUT! For everybody ELSE the philosophy is: "Your vision will NOT improve by touching this car". :bang :bang :bang

Someday I may post my real feelings on this subject.

Yes, at the risk of sounding polititcally incorrect, can't stand rude "kids".

Yes, kids (who would otherwise be shy, and just look, and admire....are often egged on by super-annoying helicopter parents who urge:

"sit on the fender"
"he wont mind if you sit in it"
"you can go behind the roped area"
"lean back like Magnum, PI"
"say Pimp my ride"
"oh..., are YOU the owner"

Yes, its the same dang annoying Parents who think its cute when their kids run around nice adult restaurants; yell and they know its annoying everyone but say nothing....and the classic: dont feed, drink, or nap a kid right before he sits behind your seat for a 7hr flight.

Sorry....and yes I had a tiny ice cream hand print baked into the finish of my 60 Mercedes Roadster which I am sure the parent saw and walked by....the dye, sugar, and enzymes ate into finish worse than acid.

Now, back to happy times; make all ages back off !

I have had all kinds of problems with people and their Ill behaved Kids touching my High End cars. I once came back to my Hemi Cuda to find 2 Crack Heads sitting in it at a car show I attended.

I rest my case, I rest my case, I REST my case!!!!!!!!!!

There will ALWAYS be some scumbag around who'll try to mess with your car if they get the chance. You're living in "La-La-Land" if you believe otherwise. Paranoia has NOTHING to do with it. 'Seen it too many times.

Don't give 'em the opportunity. ("An ounce of prevention...")

I think people just don't realize how important these cars are to us, and how much time some of us spend obessing over trying to get rid of the swirl marks that their fingers cause. "Dude, it's just a car!" Does my car have brail on it ANYWHERE? They just want to touch the pretty, shiney thing like they were freakin two year old children! Drives me nuts, but I do feel like an ass sometimes for getting so pissed! People look at me like I'm crazy when I sprint across a parking lot and form tackle the little old blue hair that just opened the door of her Crown Vic into my pride and joy! They get all freaked out when I deliver a Tyson style knockout punch to their booger picking, bed wetting, ten year old's kidney for rubbing his little chocolate covered dick beaters all over my ride. I mean geez, the one on the other side will take up the slack if that one explodes! Dude, it's just a kidney! Next time I think I'll try to hit for the cycle and bite the kid's ear off. Would probably taste great with some fava beans.....
