I once had a date with a lady who was driving the exact same model / color / everything as my E550.

We ended up dating each other for some time .lol.

People do check out my cars, especially the car enthusiasts. I myself am quite repulsive.

My "stable" consists of a '5 Cadillac CTS-V, an '8 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, an '8 Pontiac Solstice GXP, an '8 Nissan 350Z, and a '12 Ford Mustang Boss 302.

It's an old trick to ask a girl/woman about her car; it's a bridge to say hello without sounding/looking creepy.

This bugger has more "buddies" than you can imagine.

Yeah, I think so, but more so just because I'm a chick driving it:
f
(that's my husband is in the driver's seat while I took some photos. )

I get approached often about the truck (especially because it's a diesel) and people tend to remember me because of it. And because it's so distinguishable, they also tell me when and where they saw me last.

I agree with the others
This ones pretty obvious. No one checks out a Ford Focus, he was probably into you. No time to ask for your number?


I used to get women and Competition food eaters chasing me down in my old ride

Wow, that is a great first car to have! I've always liked the '68-'69 Dart GTS 340.

I own three cars...

The '69 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham gets a good amount of attention, especially being triple black.

The '76 Cadillac Fleetwood Seventy-Five Limousine (see photo) gets a large amount of attention, again, especially being black but also because of the recent repaint and because it's such a large car.

The '95 Lincoln Town Car gets a modest amount of attention.
