    A convertible that I had have tuned to the max and foiled and re-seated to my liking in my favorite colors. It looked awesome in my head.

    Then my pimp-mobile came. And I always was the center of attention. Which I, a very private person, highly disliked but gloriously failed to predict.

    Also it was horrible to drive for >30mins because you basically had your nuts on the ground and felt every Lil pebble on the road.

    Few months later I sold the car and bought one which basically made me invisible. One that only >70yrs olds drive here 😁

      I drive a roadster myself. Recently I’ve noticed that to get out of it, I have to lift my left leg up with my arms and set my foot on the ground, otherwise I get a sartorius muscle strain. I now understand why used roadsters are so cheap: there is only a tiny window where you’re old enough to afford one but young enough to actually get in and out of it.

        Lol yes. That too. It was no fun to get in or out. On top of that enjoyment I’m 2m and ripped two jeans while getting out. Up to that point I never saw the appeal of SUVs 😁
