Or was it some sort of slight since two guys came up in a roadster?
Funniest was when I took dad's 964 out. It's a '91 C2 Targa in Guards Red. At a stoplight, I hear a little voice "Mommy, look at that ugly car! Isn't that red car ugly, mommy?" I was in the only red car at the light. I glanced over at the mother, she looked embarrassed.  |
I remember that when I was little I thought that 911s were very very ugly. The carrera gt was a dream car (shows my age) but other Porsche's never looked good to me (I liked BMW z roadsters! Particularly z8.)
However, I saw a boxster for the first time really at a gas station when I was about 11. I thought it was the coolest car in the world.
I quite like 911s now but the over imaginative mind of a child much prefers a Lamborghini.
