Once when I was selling used cars a very effeminate young gay man came in looking for a Ford Probe.
No shit, he loved the model name. This is a true story...

I also saw an Aston Martin Rapide for the first time last weekend. Gorgeous...

Saw an Aston Martin V8 Vantage convertible, which is a great looking convertible.

We see a guy that has one when we're at Starbucks occasionally on weekends. He got it about the same time I got my Porsche -- and his AM is a similar color as my 987 and we chatted cars for a few...

Saw a Nissan Leaf.

One ugly car.
