Hrmmm... We'll have to see if I share in any of that action around here ;) I thought that was a U.S. thing. I'm happy to be wrong ;)

I've been video taped with a full size camcorder for about a minute. That is creepy.. Who carries around a camcorder in their car, for God's sake?

I was video taped in Daytona Beach, FL a few months ago. The girl was video taping while her bf (i guess) drove. The car was a black Subaru WRX STI. The funny part is when he decided he wanted to race...now he has video proof that he got SMOKED by a V10 lol

I get it all the time with the Lambo, sometimes I'm a little scared for them, I have seen people hanging their bodies half way out of a car moving at 70mph just to take a pic or short video of the car.

As for the celebrity status, sometimes it feels like I'm in a police car as people (usually) get out of the way and let me by (Viper or Lambo)...

The cars are meant to be enjoyed, and, we are responsible for sharing :)

I carry a pistol in all of my cars. If someone snaps a photo with me in the car, I drop a couple of rounds in their rear quarter panel and the photo shoot always ends quickly. This is considered acceptable in Texas.

That was a good one.

so I decided tints were the best bet.

Local Police, Chicago Police, and Illinois state troopers I think have to be the worst when it comes to Tints and No Front plate. Ive tried it with my previous car, I would get pulled over so much I couldnt even make it to where I wanted to go. Best option though, I agree.

Knock on wood, it is not that bad here. I have gotten the front plate portion quite often though.

Yeah,

Happens everywhere here too. Funny, there are more Mercedes, Porches, Feraris and Lambos here than Vipers. Sometimes the attention gets annoying when you're trying to get somewhere quickly, but it's just part of the ownership experience.

I tinted the windows in both cars. It helps somewhat.

Love the experience. It comes with the ownership of the Viper. I even get attention with my Ram SRT-10 truck! Mostly from other truck owners though.

has always been part of the experience..
Even before I bought my first - rented one in Reno. Driving down Virginia
street, in three lanes of traffic, a guy in a car three ahead and the next lane
over climbs OUT his passenger window, at 35 or 40 mph, turns and starts taking
photos!

When the car was in NY for a tv show shoot with Warner Bros Fox, during the
week of the Republican Convention, I stopped in front of the Radio City
Music hall - no busses were running either - and the cell phone cameras
were going off. also in Times Square.. and at Madison Square Gardens.
( I HATE NY City streets ! terrible!)

Driving down the Baltimore beltway, in the left lane in heavy traffic,
a guy in the back seat of a car in front of me turns and starts snapping.
OK. Then they pull into the right lane, and he continues shooting as I go by, then they pull in behind me, still shooting. OK, so I go along and pull right,
and they come past on my left, yup still shooting.. so I pull in behind..
360 !

at Bar Mitzvahs, at weddings, pretty much anytime anywhere..

HOWEVER - NEVER been flashed ! must be a warmer clime thing!
