While coming out of work I saw one of the few Lotus in my town this day was the green and yellow striped Exige S owned by a nice blond lady ....to bad this thing is beat to heck...side markers are cracked and almost gone rock chips EVERYWHERE just horribly kept...
she had it parked at the resteraunt across from the one I worked at and I always love looking at it

And low and behold... coupe of people were also looking at it... 1 guy was for some reason dared to lick the emblem...yes...lick the emblem and him being far to drunk to have common sense did it...
The other guy was bragging about how he could make his car go faster than the exige in a quarter mile for less money than its worth...
I finally opened my mouth and tried to argue about its handling abilities
with his loving reply of handling doesnt matter... =I.... I just drove off with a nice red handprint on my face...

This thread is just buried cause it's been too damn cold for us to drive and get stupid or funny comments

Lol. I think the funniest part is that you tried to reason with a guy who was licking car emblems.

Brittle things chip easier that soft things.
And the fact that she drives it rather than polishes it is not a bad thing.

And no one commented on the hand print???

 

[sturgeongeneral]

Even worse, where the picture of the blond lady?

 

[jds62f]

This strikes me as an odd comment. Strict definitions aside, isn't the phrase for paint that damages easily 'soft paint' ? Not sure where you infer I was saying that driving it is a bad thing, were you responding to someone else or just making a general comment?

There are paint softeners which are designed to chip less easily, so I was reading it literally.
But maybe you're right; I just do not keep up with the modern lingo very well.

Sorry that was referencing the OP's comment:

But I am still surprised that no one commented on the hand print. Is that a normal thing to receive interacting with people?

I believe "red handprint" = a :facepalm moment. And I have these all the time when interacting with people, especially if I see them licking a car but not in homage of its handling. :facepalm

Awaits LT'ers to bash her for not being a supermodel...

I found a note on my Esprit from a girl who had licked the mirror housing. There was also a clean spot about the size of a tongue. The note said "Travis, I may have licked your car".
