Came to visit my parents this weekend and my mom surprised me with a small gift. She saw Hot Wheels at the grocery store and went through them picking out ones she thought looked “interesting.” Y’all, my mom is an Oppo! *happy tears*

I guess I should’ve known since she used to drive a 1972 Cutlass Supreme. Heh.

This makes much more sense. I was thinking it was just a generic HotWheels tuner coupe, but the name didn’t sound quite right for that.

I don’t need to tell you how jelly I am because you have my favorite bodystyle year for the Mustang in Hot Wheel form....

But I’m very jelly. Very nice. :p

Your Mom has a good eye! I give my mom full credit for the massive amount of awesome Micro Machines, Matchboxes, and Hot Wheels I have from my childhood.

Right? When I saw them I was impressed that she picked out real cars, then even more impressed that she picked out some pretty awesome real cars. Heh. I’ve gone a little fan girl around her about cars I see IRL, and she’s always like “what’s that?” with a shrug of her shoulders. Little did I know she was just an Oppo in disguise. :)

At the very least, she was paying attention to what interested you :)

My mom knew nothing about cars, but she liked them and had quite good taste in them.
