Actually during the entire time I was driving the top was up, and then when I told him I wanted to park by my car to get my camera he said he'd put the top down to show me how it worked. This is one amazing car, and it makes me grateful that I can have an experience like that.

I once saw an Enzo pull into the Target parking lot (which is actually right next to the Acura dealer), turn around, pull into the highway, stop (there was a red light behind it), and then let all hell loose. Isolated highway + no cops + little traffic = fun

Very cool of that guy. One of the cars I've had my eye on is the Lotus Elise... and if you go over to the Lotus forum, you'll notice that a lot of times they do the same thing. There used to be "rules" for exotic and exotic type car owners that someone wrote up which was very cool, and it seems like this guy fits right in.

2KTafTL: You're lucky, and holding up pretty well to the "old man and a hotel room" jokes. I would have thought at 17 you would become an E-thug...

Good on you and I'm sure you're going to start saving pennies for the day you can buy one....I'd love one in about 10 years. Once the kids are out of the house

Um, did you put "premium" in her? About a tablespoon of 98.7+ Hi-test?

Great story

If money were no object, I'd have an s65 myself. What more could you ask for in a 4 door car?
