Does anyone else get excited when you see another one of your car?

I saw a black 2008 E90 M3 at my friends apartment complex and I went over to look at it and almost took a picture despite having owned my own E90 M3 for 2.5+ years. On the drive home from Greenville, I saw a Le Mans blue E90 going the opposite way on I-95 and it made me really excited.

Speaking of BMWs, I’ve had the 3 for a month and put almost 2000 miles on it, I’m going to type up my thoughts soon.

Only Kia Amantis excite me.

I would, but I haven’t seen my particular car yet - I’ve seen Forte SX coupes but no Forte5 SX hatches.

I thought I saw someone with my exact car behind me but when they made a turn I saw that it was the coupe - the front end of the coupe and hatchback are the exact same for the SX trim.

Oh yes, seeing as there are about two left on the road...

None of my “cool cars” have been particularly common or modern so I don’t think it’s a fair comparison.

I have seen exactly one other S600 in the wild since buying mine. And he had designo, distronic, and factory rims with a non-AMG body; in other words, the S600 I wanted. Insult to injury, this was in the parking lot of my usual Wells Fargo branch.

Needless to say, I crapped myslef with excitement.

Not so much when driving my truck, as there are still tons of C/Ks being used on a daily basis. But SN95s still catch my eye. I don’t know that I’d say they excite me per se, but I’m always curious, and have to look and see how close I can get to figuring out what year or trim level it is.

So I’ll take it as you’ve never seen another one.

I feel like I see more S65's than I do S600s. I’ve seen other E90 M3s, but I have yet to park next to one.

I’ve never seen another 220 S600. Ever. I’ve seen a few W140s, and a 2006 S65 with 14,000 miles on it, but never a 600.

More like I’m in shock. Rare enough I’ve only seen 6 in 2 years.

I’m surprised if I see another ‘01-’05 Miata in the wild, especially a manual variant. However, this doesn’t apply during car meets and autocrosses where I’m highly likely to see one. I do get excited seeing rare Miatas on the road like M-Editions, Special Editions, and rare color combos.

I thought a majority of the Miatas were manual.

They are but for some odd reason, a majority of the Miatas I see in the Sumter, Darlington, and Florence areas are automatics driven mostly by female owners.

Ah, but I have.

August 2015 and I’m not sure if I’ve seen one since.

Of course! I love seeing other Saabs. I like to know I’m not alone on the roads.

Yup! Not too many new gen GTOs, but there are a few in the county. I enjoy seeing them and sometimes they wave back!
