I'm kind of with him. I would have a problem with it, too. That's like walking up to a Lamborghini and having that happen. I am 100% with the guy. It doesn't matter if it is kids or adults.

Should've locked the door.

I could be wrong, but I think it has Jersey plates on it now. Do you have any more pictures of it? Spotted at Caffeine & Carburetors:

The wheels are different, but how many different road legal, blue R34s are you really going to see?

That'd make me mad if it happened with my car and it's only a Cobalt.

I did see a Lambo owner let 2 kids sit in his car on a cruise night. Dad pulled up in a Corolla and the kids bailed out before it was even in park to take pictures and ask questions.

I thought someone said he sold the car after too much exposure, was it just to another Tennessee resident?

I hear about that happening all the time. It's one reason why I never go farther than lurking-range around my own car at shows. I've never had an issue, fortunately. I'll leave the hatch and hood open, and the windows down but doors locked. People lean their heads in (fine with me, no metal-on-paint that I've seen), usually to get a look at an un-cracked dash. I'm baffled by stories of the overly touchy. If I'm around and someone, or their kid, is super in to it, I'll even offer if they want to sit in it. All but the hardest sociopaths will behave well if they know you're looking. Maybe I'm just lucky?

My 2-year-old knows better than to even touch another person's car. He's excited about cars. He loves Z cars, Jettas, pickups, and can identify Beetles (likes the originals best, thanks to Richard Scarry, but appreciates them all), likes real trucks and SUVs (Big tire!), but he knows to never touch. Me: "That's not our car, right?" Him: "No touch!" He's a smart kid, but it doesn't seem that hard of a thing to teach. It's okay to look, just leave it alone. At our town's Halloween kid-downtown-trick-or-treat event, they brought out the FD hook-and-ladder truck and let the kids walk up and touch it and talk to the firefighters (really cool of them). I had to tell him it was okay to touch it and talk to the guy before he'd get closer than about 4 feet. He wasn't afraid, just felt like, "cool but not mine, so I'll keep some distance".
