Saturday afternoon here in Nashville it was beautiful. Warm weather, sunny sky. People were out in large numbers downtown, both tourists and locals alike. I was heading home after class (being an adult student sucks sometimes) and I was checking out all the nice cars that were being cruzed around and besides a flashy red Acura NSX, four cars stood out among the rest, three Golfs and a Jetta. I'm a VW fan (duh) but I mean it seriously when I say they stood out and in a good way. They were very clean, dropped and tricked out, but not riced out. Due to traffic I didn't have the chance to really get a great look at them but I was pretty excited to see such nice VWs anyway. I was able to pull along side as I was turning right as they were turning left. I gave them a little honk and a peace sign, to show my VW brotherhood and then like a total dork I had to tap my breaks a bit harder than I needed because traffic in front of me stopped.
Needless to say it's a tad bit embarrassing to drive like a lamer in front of those you respect. I mean I don't know those guys, but there is some pride in being a VW 'driver'. To not drive like one, as I did at that moment, is embarrassing. I might as well had said, "Hey guys look at me, I'm an uber-dork!"
I'm sure I gave those guys a good laugh, thumbs-up for them and their sweet rides. Maybe next time I'll be less of a dork. And I'll wash my car too. LOL
