Talking about the metallic paint sparkle, I drove my car by the popular auto place around here to get the windows tinted...and imagine my surprise when I pulled into the lot and saw a Hot Lava xB there. Hehe.
Anyways, all the guys behind the counter and in the shop sorta' took a double take at me when I got out of the car. Then I asked them for an estimate on getting the tint done and one guy asked the other guy, "That's a 4 door, right?" and the other guy said, "No, 2." Then when he explained it would be about $90 dollars for the front and back windows on each side, I asked how much it would be for the roof, and he looked all confused.
I explained that the whole top of the car is 4 pieces of glass and he just looked at me for a second, then said he'd have to see it. As he was walking out toward my car he said to that same other guy, "That's the xA right?" and he said, "Yeah..." then I said, "Nope..it's the new tC."
The best part of this story (that's longer than it needs to be) is that when they both walked out to my car, the first thing they both did was get all up close to it and say, "Daaaayam...look at that paint!!" Then they about drooled all over my moonroof. Hehe....I felt all warm and fuzzy inside, knowing all the kinds of cars these guys see day in and out, and they were loving mine.
OK, sorry...I just love thinking about that story and had to share it. Hehe.
