I'm not old enough to understand

Illustration for article titled Im not old enough to understand

Went to cars and coffee on Sunday, same as every first Sunday of the month. Probably 400+ cars there, everything from McLarens and Ferraris to ratty old Subarus. Of course there was the guy who always shows up with his Alfa 4C, parks in the middle of 2 spots and plants his sign in front, and his lawn chair next to it while in the next row there are a couple of 488s and McLarens just parked in normal spaces while the owners walk around.

There were a handful of people with the signs in front of their cars like shown above. Obviously the image was found on the internet, not taken at C&C by me. I don’t get these signs. Especially on a stock car. Usually it’s some old muscle car or something, so I guess it’s a age thing, and my nearly 42 years places me outside of that demographic. Old muscle cars and 57 Chevys aren’t really my thing, I’d much rather see some a 70s Town and Country wagon, or early 80s Civic (both were in attendance and very cool) than 1 of 30 ‘68 Mustangs present at C&C.

Dunno, I guess I just don’t see the point. Your car is special to you, I get that, mine is special to me too. I just don’t imagine that mine is special enough for anyone else to want to sit there and read a sign about how awesome it is.
