i don't have a dream car, 'coz i don't dream about cars

::I know a lot about cars. I can look at a car's headlights and tell you exactly which way it's coming.::
petang semlm aku sampai kat kereta aku, ada kereta waja kat sebelah, n the driver asyik ulang-alik antara driver's seat n the trunk. mula2 dia pandang aku, tapi dia mcm cepat2 sambung whatever things he's doing, so aku pun x sempat la nak senyum ke apa. ingat nak masuk keta pastu blah terus, tapi x jadi... sbb tiba2 susah lak nak jumpa kunci kereta dlm handbag. lama gak aa aku duk selongkar, sekali:
encik: ha mcm mana nak balik tu, kunci kereta xde?
aku: itu la, susah lak nak capai ni.
encik: kang tertinggal kat ofis sampai sini baru perasan, ha sudah...
aku: (gelak) eh xkan nya, mesti ada ni.
encik: mana dpt kereta ***** ni?
aku: jepun.
hahaha damn pikir balik apsal aku bengong sgt ckp jepun? hehe sbb toyota kot.
aku: 2nd hand je ni.
encik: u beli pastu bawak balik sini ke? bila beli?
aku: 2nd hand je ni... keta lama ni.
as if dia xleh teka kereta lama, fr the plate number.... d'uh
encik: keta jarang nampak ni.
aku: ala 2nd hand je ni... *masuk keta*
if ppl heard our conversation, they might've guessed it was between a male human and a female robot. haha tapi aku mmg clueless kalau org tanya pasal kereta. siket2 tu boleh la. bila start tanya enjin apa, pikap ok ke x, sparkplug, karburetor, fanbelt, timing belt... kalau aku angguk2 je tu mmg aku x tau la tu.
for me, a car is for when you want to go fr A to B using much less time than walking. period.
kdg2 tu tertoleh gak la kan, bila keta porcshe cayenne S lalu, or nampak spyder kat parking lot, but that's just because it stands out fr the rest. aku mana tau mana lagi mahal dr mana, enjin mana lagi power dr mana, etc. mcm jugak kalau aku nampak hyundai i10 lalu aku toleh gak, tapi x mahal pun kan keta tu? (err agaknya la).
haha kalau main NFS: Most Wanted pun, bila time modify appearance kereta, mesti last2 jadik buruk gak. yg dlman, confirm amik yg plg mahal heheh. kalau tgk adik2 aku siap boleh wohoo! fuiyooo! ini baru cun! gilerr aaah! lagi. pdhal virtual cars je.
pernah gak ada org tinggalkan note atas keta aku: saya berminat dgn kereta anda. sila hubungi 01x-xxxxxxx. aiyoh, what do you expect me to say when i call you? nak tanya performance? maintenance? nak test drive? hehe bukannya utk dijual pun. as my dad sees it, it might be constituted as a threat / harrassment. haha whatever.
well, what do you expect fr a person who, when somebody asked (about my car), "4-wheel ke?" answered, "ha'ah."
ok chiow.
p/s: in case you've dreamed about cars
