This Car Is Dangerous!!!!

This car causes other drivers to do nutty things

Yesterday at 40 mph on 4 lane st., a young woman ( 20's maybe ) hung out her drivers door almost up to her waste with both hands on a camera!!!
Her passenger drove from the right hand seat so her friend could get a picture of my smarty ! (Cabrio that is)

Ya gotta love this car!!!

On I-95 two weeks ago a guy in the fast lane was watching me merge onto the highway and he rear ended the car in front of him.

How about it folks, any rubber necking happen with your smarty?
It truly causes other people to " HANG OUT" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

on the NJ turnpike I had a car on each side...it bothered me a little b/c they were just riding along side me and I was coming up fast on the car in front of me then a car came up behind be boxing me in completely. i had to slow down to about 50 to get around everyone. definitely don't mind all the smiles, laughs and questions. it does annoy me when people ask if its the indian car though.

don't worry about that, tell them, no, that's the Jaguar and Land Rover you're thinking about. nothing wrong with being an indian car.

I was going 65 MPH down I70 in Maryland and this VW Jetta comes up and sees me and slows down (Yes, semi trucks were passing me on the highway) around 9:30 PM last night. Then I see a flash from his car as he was taking a picture of me. Then I sped up some and he got behind me and took another picture.

Are you kidding!...This car is a rock star. Kids scream and adults stalk you into parking lots to discuss the car. Look there may be cars that get this kind of gas mileage, but none of those will cause anything but a yawn as they go by. This car is sexy, fun to drive and a help at saving the planet. After all, how many times do you need 4000 pounds to lug around you and your stuff?

Getting a solid 36 mpg around Long Island is heavy stop and go traffic. With 1200 miles we've returned to the dealer to replace an emission valve that set the check engine light. Also had the dealer rebalance the front tires because there was a shake at 70 mph. He also said the tires had 50 psi which is wrong. Well, that's the way it came from the dealer. So, if your ride is hard, check the pressure. It may be wrong.

Yes, it does!

I had a young man race up alone side me in his car on the left; in the on-cominig lane of traffic. Next his girl friend, who was riding shotgun, snapped a picture. Then he puts it in reverse and gets behind me right on my ass. When I stop at a stop sign, he pulls over on the right and starts trying to talk to me saying "He's likes the car".

I have also had drunken screaming people hanging out of their cars going down the highway give the car a thumbs up!

This kind of excitement I don't need!
