Enjoy it. Tons of positive comments!
Haha too funny. However I can relate. My wife hates my LFA says it’s too hard of a ride. Bought an old 240z in perfect condition and she said that THING, is a smelly piece that of shit! Women ...... they just don’t GET it!
Quick trip to John Deere for a part. Fun drive and traffic wasn’t too bad. One big out-the-window thumbs up from a Tesla and a couple more waves.

Fun pic
I had mine out today for the weekly jaunt
I had a guy in a Scion Tc yell wow pretty loudly
Then a driver in a current gen Lexus IS jerked his head to the left in a most unnatural way when he noticed me coming toward him

Yesterday was Costco for gas - luckily no gas drama from the pipeline. Older gentleman came over and asked about it. Then a fantastic back road drive for some ice cream.
And we lucked out with almost no traffic. Only a couple bicyclists and one tractor pulling a seed drill taking up a big chunk of road.
We have tons of incredible roads and beautiful scenery. And right out the driveway. Biggest worry is bicyclists and farm equipment, and of course deer. Big horse county here too, so not uncommon for riders on some smaller roads. That's where quiet mode is so cool to cruise by on electric power. It easy to zip along on straights with visibility but have to be really careful around blind corners.
From last year, I gave them the full road, like I had a choice. Then back to the curves.

We have plenty of nice roads, you just have to get 25 plus miles outside the city.
We went for our day hike to Bristol, WI today, lovely place.
Need some pics. Sure it’s beautiful up there.
Real quick drive / errand today. Had 45 min for a Wegmans run for essentials then a slightly long way home. I parked in the nether lands of the parking lot and my wife waited. Had to do a virtual graduation for my niece too. So proud of her!
Man… it turns heads and people point. One guy at a light wouldn’t move till I went by for a long look.

We usually take the LC 500 convertible for these trips
My wife wanted to get an early start (the fun cars are a 25 minute walk from home) so we took the Q50S Hybrid
Here is a link to some pics for the place

They have a group called boundless adventures where they teach zip lining and other outdoor skills.

Please share some ideas for nice drives. New to the area and haven't found much.

Took mine to Cars and Coffee at Ferrari of New England and they had me park right up front with a sea of red Ferraris. Only NSX there and everyone loved it. Got so many thumbs ups and questions people loved the Orange with Blue interior.

It looks great surrounded by red! Mine has always pulled in a crowd at the local car gathering. I haven't been to one in over a year and can't wait till it starts up again. Need to look at their website for an update. It's cool to pull away in electric mode.
The full wrap gives a huge bump in confidence against minor scratches as people wander around.

I wish the cars and coffee scene would revive around Chicago
Glad you had a solid experience at Mr. Boch's store

Here’s one I have in hand from a photographer that shot my car at the show but will take more and send soon.
[MENTION=37491]CPatel_Bos[/MENTION] - so exciting to see your car out and about! Looks fantastic.
[MENTION=34751]NbyNW[/MENTION] - curious if you have any MD / DMV recommendations re: getting your NSX wrapped? I'm just starting to do my research on that for my *eventual* arrival date in June / July...to book an appointment post-paint curing!

Mine was at the dealer for about a year so when I got it the paint was cured and ready for PPF.
So right off the trailer the first stop was Mike at The Shine Shop in Reisterstown, MD, for paint correction, then I immediately drove it to Absolute Perfection Tinting in Sykesville, MD, for the wrap.
I was really lucky with Mike - he's usually booked up for weeks or months, but he was able to get me in within days. Same with AP Tinting. Scheduling for both worked out great.
I got the Lumar Platinum topped with Ceramic Pro. Tinted with FormulaOne Stratos in whatever is legal, inside back window too (not the engine hatch), and Air Blue 80 on the windshield (Can't tell anything is there).

AP has tinted many cars for me. This was the first wrap and with a black car I can see some minor imperfections that probably wouldn't be visible on other colors. Overall, no issues and I would use them again. We looked it over and they offered to redo those areas but I decided to live with them, they are really minor. Side note - AP has also tinted many huge windows in my 1960s mid-mod house - excellent work!
