A&Q about Lotus
Q:
SEAMS LIKE THERE ARE A LOT OF HATERS OUT THERE. MY ELISE WAS PARKED IN A REGULAR SPOT THE REGULAR WAY AND SOMEONE SPIT ON IT. I MAKE IT A POINT NOT TO PARK IT TO TAKE TWO SPACES AND THE LIKE TO PISS PEOPLE OFF. A FEW WEEKS LATER I WAS DRIVING HOME JUST TOOLING ALONG WITHOUT BOTHERING ANYONE AND SOMEONE DROVE PAST AND CALLED ME AN ***HOLE. ONE TIME I HAD MY ESPRIT PARKED ON THE STREET WHEN I WAS OUT WITH MY WIFE AND SOMEONE THREW A SODA CAN ON IT. HOW MANY HATERS HAVE YOU ENCOUNTERED? THANKFULLY THIS TREATMENT PALES IN COMPARISON TO THE ADMIRERS OF THE CAR BUT I DO NOT GET THE HATERS.
A:
they're just jealous
A:
No need to yell, we did not do it
A:
The Sith always yell, or hiss... nothing in between...

Aren't you a soulless lawyer by admission?
Perhaps it's not the car afterall...
A:
Motivation? Maybe they had to toil through a post of yours in all-caps.
A:
I had a happy 12 year old kid riding along in my Elise with me and some guy in a pickup truck 3 lanes away from me was mad as hell at the fact my car doesn't suck... he give me the finger and held it, the kid who was with me was smiling and waved at him, and he didn't stop with the finger...
Honestly... you're a 40 y/o man and even if you're jealous a young guy like me has a nice car, you're flicking off a smiling and happy 12 year old kid, how utterly pathetic you must be... we did have a good laugh though haha, loser
A:
the world is full of assh*les who need to get laid (and mind their own business and not worry about what others are doing).
A:
My list of negatives:
1) Cigarette thrown at me from a car traveling in the other direction
2) Spit on once while parked
3) Vanilla milkshake poured on it while parked
4) Burger King whopper thrown against it while parked
5) Twice had people pass me while giving me the finger (just for the sake of giving me the finger)
6) But my favorite was the 16 year old girl (riding as a passenger in a car stopped to my left at a traffic light) who told me "god, your car is so ugly". My response: "at least I can sell the ugly car, whereas you are stuck forever with your ugly face". She gave me the finger, so I guess that makes three times that I have been flipped off.
You gotta take the bad with the good. Luckily, the good greatly outweighs the bad on this car.
A:
No bad experiences here
A:
I watched a girl spit on it one time. I couldn't believe it. A few weeks ago, some redneck saw me coming and threw a container of barbeque sauce out the window at me. It went all over the front of my car. I think I show great restraint at doing nothing about these types of things.
A:
I had a lady in an SUV attempt to pour her Coke on me while drivig in front of me one lane over. She held her hand out and dumped the can out. It completely missed, but the sentiment was unreal.

I hate these stories. I do not have any patience for people that do these things. It has become more and more apparent that the world is full of j-offs.
A:
I know it's been posted before but I never leave home without it:
Seriously.
I've actually used the "I wish this was real" card (the one with the picture of the gun). Guy took off so fast he almost ran off the road.
Most of the time it's just "Blinker?" or "Cell Phone = Lousy Driver"

Too funny..
A:
okay, now caps. i dream about catching the douche bag who spit on my car. the first thing i would do is punch his face in. then ask him why. oh, and i did not list even half the **** that has happened. someone threw a can of coke on my car at hockey game.
A:
also to andrikos, you must have been checking up on me. i am not a soulless lawyer. and i am not a self hater or defender. i am what i am. if you need me and i can help i am there. i answer the phone when you call and provide for you what i can. most of my clients like me.

i thought about that but i had my pants on when they yelled at me so it must have been the car about which they were jealous.
