Yep!
You know it. At one time the fastest production diesel on the planet. We still have it.

I want to send it back to the creche to get a total refurb but my mom doesn't like the expenses...it's her vehicle.

I've heard all of the common ones in this thread and hear them on a regular basis. I'll add my own unique one. I shit you not, I've heard this from SEVERAL guys in various places I've lived.

Neighbors look at me no comment but I know they think I am nuts.

My cars are not the newest or best cars on the block but sure as shit they are the cleanest.
Every Sat or Sun if it is not pouring wash and quick wax, when I am board during the week do it again, I like a clean car and it is good to exercise a little bit anyway, if not my wife would find some other BS for me to do around the house anyway , so I say wash on!

You mean massive body roll, a steering system that is not connected to the front wheels, and the engine note played through the speaker system?!?!?!?!

I get these as well as, 'Do you work for BMW? You have the coolest cars'.

The funny thing is that the guy who actually owns a car dealership lives 2 doors down.

Only 2? You are more efficient than I.

I don't really get any comments tbh. I'm often told I look angry and not to be trifled with so I'm pretty much left alone.

On a few separate occasions, I have had some folks (old men out for a walk and kids) come up my driveway and admire my work while I was in the garage at night finishing full detailing of the Moupe. While I appreciate the friendly comments, why the f*** would anyone come up a stranger's driveway at night, under shadow, and unannounced?! They tend to leave after I stand up and turn towards them so I guess comments of me looking unapproachable are true.
