Another friend just got a Quattroporte GTS, am curious how that ownership journey will go.
M2 is a Swiss army knife, Maserati is a fork literally.

DISCLAIMER : I love Maserati to bits(historically and MC12)

That crap gets so old. Had a yellow Elise for 3 years and we got constantly photographed. Almost every time I took it out someone was pulling up the cell phone. Caught some lady sitting on the fender at the park once while her friends took a pic.

NO.. Underage and Overweight.

The Elise could put you in jail without even starting the engine. I went with AW on the M2. I've had my day in the spotlight.

I don't leave mine parked on the street for that reason. Plus so many people in NYC have no regard for parked cars. I've seen sanitation workers use a 335s hood to slide no less than 30 trash bags to get them on the truck.

I don't mind if people take pix but if I saw someone sitting or leaning on it as I was approaching it, they would have a big problem. My issue is with people taking pictures while I'm in the car driving. It makes me super uncomfortable. Half the time I'm hiding behind my wheel in traffic. Lol.

That was my issue with the Elise. It seemed like there was always someone video taping my driving "activities". I guess that's why there's so many clips of crashing exotics on youtube. Not that the Elise is really that exotic.

Well I'm glad I got the car wrapped but it is still very annoying for anyone to lean on a car.

It's shocking to hear about the garbage sliding over hoods...gross

One of the reasons I got 18% tints on all my M's. Obviously, the first reason was to keep the interior from turning into an oven when it's Africa hot outside in the summer. But I've had people either video tape me as I'm driving (not too big of a deal) and people trying to race me (annoying). I feel like if I'm going on my own business and not make eye contact, they eventually leave me alone.

No doubt the Austin Yellow F80 will need window tints too

I almost got an Austin yellow M3 but the dealer didn't wanna make it a good deal. I have 20% tint. Lots of peacocking going on from those American muscle drivers. They slow down and rev next to me all the time. I don't even look their way and they eventually drive off. Lol. As a female though, I really don't want anyone having my pix in their possession.

How did you know? I got caught smuggling small fluffy puppies across the border. I'm bad news.

Congratulations! The LLB looks amazing in the sun. Cannot wait to see a photo of the car once all the parts are installed!

Saw a LBB M2 for the first time today. It's a very striking color.

I have seen a LBB X6M. I didn't love it. Maybe because it's such a big car, it was a little too much concentrated blue.

It looks great on the M2
