Do you look back?

I love my car. I'm always worried that if I enjoy it too much something bad will happen to it. Just wondering if anyone else does the "look back". This is the only car I've ever owned that EVERY time I park it I find I have to turn around and stop and look at it and smile. Been going on for about 8 months now since I got it.

Does that happen to anyone else?

Man, I love this car....

Yeah, I am proud to walk up to my car in parking lots. People give me lots of compliments on it.

Last night when I parked there were two kids riding scooters around the parking lot, and they came up to my car and were drooling all over it telling me that I had a really cool car.

Even though I am not trying to impress little kids, it's still nice to get compliments and walk to your car to find a few people looking at it and talking about it.

Yup. Same here. Best part of my day is walking out from work and seeing my car shining in the sun. Smile every time.

And I thought I was the only one that did this.

I try not to, but I always seem to sneek a peek.

Haha sounds like me then! It's nice to drive around, but everyone ELSE gets to see it from the outside driving by - it's nice to finally see it when you park it :-)

^ I drove past a big fuel/milk trailer on a truck today, it's a good thing I didn't swerve off the highway - spent the whole time looking at my car.

My favorite time to look while driving is when I see my reflection as I pull up behind someone with fog lights on and headlights off, look so sweet .

This is one of my favorite threads I think, glad we're all obsessed.
