Signatures in car
I found this while installing my stereo - does anyone else have a cup holder autographed by Tracey?


p.s. the picture was take with my digital camera I've had for years.

Only if they pay more attention tightening bolts instead of thinking about where they should put their autographs!

Why does it suck?

I think it is nice that Tracey took pride in her work

It may be something they do in the trim shop so if they have a problem they know who made the part.

Nope... I just got a leather covered center console from the Lotus Trim Shop and no autograph by Tracey (or anyone else).

Tracey signed the back of the headliner piece that holds the hardtop on. I'll take a photo next time I take the top off. It says "♥ Tracey" written with a white paint pen. I've always thought it was really cool and shows pride in her work and really demonstrates that these are handmade cars for the most part.

The next time someone tours the factory, we should get a photo of Tracey.

I have a smiley on my headliner, but no "Tracey" -- I've always thought it was cool too.

Mine doesn't say Tracey, but I do indeed have that exact same smiley face on my HT headliner. I thought it was pretty funny the first time I saw it.
