Default Very cool experience yesterday! Was driving my TT and saw a Lake Silver Coupe TT near me...

The father was driving and the little 8 yr oldish daughter was in the passenger seat. So the daughter, noticing that we had the same type of car, waved at me! That brought a big smile to my face and I waved back at her!

Now that's a daughter! Knows her cars!

Then again, there are TT owners who ignore me, or stare at me like I'm retarded when I wave at them, smile, or give them the thumbs up! What's that all about?

Default I don't know why it is, but kids are REALLY drawn to the TT...Not just teenage kids...LITTLE ones...

Very often I've seen them stop dead in their tracks to stare at the car...AND..I've even had a few chase after it....

No explaining good taste, I suppose!

Default LOL! As if she is the only person who is allowed to drive a TT haha - I definitely know what you...

mean! People get ticked off when they see other people driving an otherwise "unique" and "rare" car. Losers...

Default The best look is from the rich folk in their Lexus TT copy

when they glance over with a smile like "Oh they have the same car"...to a look of disdain cause they are driving the copy....as they examine my Tag in the distance Bwhahaha...

Excuse me---late 50's is NOT an old lady! (I'm not in my late 50's but on the cusp!)
