... You want to photograph a car but the owner seems like such an asshole you don't want to give them the satisfaction.

One of my friend's dad had a mint 1968 Porsche 911 in purple. It was an awesome car, and I always wanted to compliment my friend on it, or even ask for a ride, but he just kept on bragging about it, so I was forced to sit there rolling my eyes and saying, "Nice Beetle." He got rid of the car a year or two ago, and my friend has since become and older, humbler person.

There's nothing wrong with having pride in your vehicle, but it shouldn't inflate your ego. I spotted a Lambo like the one above yesterday and was ready to snap it but then the owner did a full revs 1st gear pull in a pedestrianised area that's barely a lane wide. Sure enough he had his arm hanging out of the window and posteuring as though he had the worlds biggest ego.

Car sounded damn good though.

My friend, at the time, was more than prideful. It definitely inflated his ego. I'm glad he's gotten better lately, because his dad may be getting an F-Type, and I don't want to be making his head get bigger if I ask to take some pictures.

Damn hopefully he has got better enough for you to take a good look round that F type and not get bothered. Would be cool to see one of those up close.

There's always that one person who thinks that they are superior to everybody else on earth, because they have an average midlife crisis car.

Indeed.
