Last night my wife and I went out for dinner at a very nice little cafe that just opened in a new strip mall. I parked next to a very sharp looking BMW Z3. it was black and looked to have been freshly Zainoed...very nice detail job. We both were topless and I stopped to admire the Z3 for a minute or two before going into the restaurant. We were lucky enough to get a seat right in front, at the window with a straight-on view of both cars.
The table turned out to be a ring side seat to quite a show. Every party that left the restaurant and passed my SLK stopped to take a look. Three middle-aged women who were parked in a SUV next to my car walked out and I thought: "Uh oh, watch them hit my driver's side door carelessly" But instead all three walked around both the Z3 aqnd my SLK 55 for about five minutes admiring each one in turn. I could tell they were appreciative. My wife thought it was a gas. [

The highlight was when the owner of the Z3 left the restaurant with a very nice looking woman, I was watching closely without being too obvious, my wife was with me afterall. [] The gentleman opened the passenger door for the lady and got in himself. He started to back out when he suddenly noticed my car. Believe it or not, he became animated and pulled back into his space. Then he got out of his car. He walked around my car and took several photos with a cellphone. I could see him talking excitedly to his woman about the SLK 55. Finally, after a minute or two, even his woman got out to check out the SLK. They must have spent at least five minutes checking it out. When the finally were leaving, he drove around the lot and stopped behind my car for one last photo opportunity of my my SLKs back end.
My wife and I are getting used to people stopping us to ask about the SLK.
