If parking lots were social outings, my car would be the outcast in the corner

But I usually do try to park far away from other cars, period. When someone intentionally parks next to me in the same model car, it feels nice, but I never do the same.

No not around here. I have not seen another moded TL around here yet. There is only guy rolling an A-Spec but i dont think he knows what it is haha. I do this on my bike but i dont think the TL world can, there are just to many out there, if i ever see another moded one maybe i will!

I usually stare at modded cars.. and i'm sure the owners appreciate it but I sometimes try not to look at them cause they might think im dogging them hahah

i park next to a type S only because theres a good chance he might be somewhat of an enthusiast.

im still waiting for someone to wave or something as i see a couple of nicely modded TL's around, but most drivers look pretty arrogant and snobby so i didnt bother.

this is also why i have an azine sticker so for those on here that see it should say hi or something.

I don't park next to anyone either, even if it's another TL. It only gets parked next to other TLs at a meet.

I've seen uhh...4 TLs in non-stock form around where I live and that's it. I never park next to anyone when I go places, but I wouldn't mind if another nice car parked by me as I trust they care about their car. These are just the TLs I've seen that are modded around town.
1) NBP with kinda weird looking black rims.
2) ABP with A-Specs
3) NBP TL-S with A-Spec body kit. Driven by the mom of a girl I go to school with.
4) Completely forgot about this one....04-06 WDP with full A-Spec treatment. Lives literally a half a mile from my house, but I don't know the guy and he keeps it covered in the garage during winter. Pretty cool. His winter car is a 4Runner or something. Never seen him driving the TL, just parked out front during summer.

I always get random people taking pictures of my custom plates, but never a nod or wave.. damn stuck up new yorkers...

Oh yeah, I always park far far away from all the other cars.

At stop lights or on the road I get the occasional neck breakage from other 3g drivers who drive bone stock TL's but other than that no waves. Otherwise if I see someone like "Nitrous" or a modded TL in the area I'll roll down the window a little bit and chunk a deuce

I get more acknowledgement from a guy around my town that drives a 4th gen than I do from anyone driving a 3rd gen, locally.

Last night was the first time I had ever seen a modded TL around here. He was driving a WDP with cleared headlights. He saw me, flashed his highbeams, and I waved. Not like wave but just put my hand up to let him know I acknowledged him. Then I blessed him with some ATLP heavenly-ness when I passed

Lots of TL's around here. I always try to at least wave to other owners. I speak to as I can.
