    She always says : Never thought this toy of yours can get that much attentiom then me

    Talking

    Back on topic. Every single day i get some thumbs up,some jaws heading to the ground,kids walikng around and few chicks wondering (and probably wishing) to get a ride.

    The most common words : Man ! Where did you get "that" ? looks like a space ship.

    I joke around them saying : At the NASA's dealership,hurry before they all gone

    A while back, I was just leaving the grocery store when this mother and son were walking by the VX. Her son was probably about 10 but moderately Downes (SP?). He was so interested in it that she litterally couldn't peel him away. After about 10 minutes, the kid had been all over my Proton (inside & out) about 8 times, she was finally able to get him to go on into the store (I think she bribed him). She must have thanked me 20 times for making her son's day.

    They actually did me a favor though. I used to teach Special Ed swim classes and the opportunity really brought back memories of how rewarding that was.

    I get questioned at every stop(gas) even at my oil-change place(where they should know it by now) When I'm stopped at a red light,I'll look around and someone is nearly always taking a picture! Love it!!

    Yesterday I took my VX in for new tires and an oil change, when the guy that did the work came out he started questioning me about it, and where he could get one because he never saw one before. He was like wow that's a cool truck.
