Turn around

[Conn SVX]

So tell the truth ..... How many people after parking their car, turn around and look back? More than once , more than twice?
Brock Yates once told me.... It is time to sell your car when you leave it parked. and don't turn around and look back at it.

You got me there. I'll admit it, never a park without a couple looks back. If grabbing a bite to eat, I try to sit where I can watch it.

I do, but my first thought when I read the thread title was the song...

I still turn around and look back.
And when I come out the store and walk back to her, she still makes me smile.


Hard to believe its been 4 years with her now already... sometimes I wonder if Bruce, the previous owner, misses her..
I am taking good care of her Bruce, she even has a nice backdrop for her when parked in the driveway.


She started her life in Cali, then moved to maine, then to CT, now she is in TN. I say she has had a good life.

I know I am rambling.. I don't post enough.. too many thoughts.. so just put them all in one post.

I cant not look back at mine, it just puts such a smile on my face, even when it is being an aunery *****.

Yes I park it in view at restaurants. I look out ever now and then at work...
I even have a picture in my Lowes .vest....
I still love to drive it , even after 21 years. But I do enjoy the 5 speed more.

Mine definitely gets a couple looks, from me, after getting parked. Usually, followed by an impromptu photo/Instagram session.

I had thought I didn't anymore when I first read this thread, but I've since been checking myself and yeah, I still do. It is such a common thing for me now I don't even realize I'm doing it. (I do it with the Mazda too.)

Exactly what I do. I also park it AWAY from other cars in fear of door dings, even if I have to walk a bit more.

You cannot get enough of this car. 14 years now and the love is still there.
I don't seem to be coping with what the majority of people do normally, that is MOVING on with newer stuff. I feel I am stuck in the 90's in terms of cars, nothing beyond that is catching my eye. I drove nearly each and every modern car there is, and nothing really pleased me, there is always something missing in them.

If I want to purchase a new car, it will be a 90's Mercedes. Sometimes I fancy a 1995 Mercedes S320 or a 92-93 300SL. Maybe, just maybe I would get the 2010- Wrangler Unlimited in its Rubicon option if I had the money. But I am still stuck in a ditch.. since 2 years now.
