Not for me.
A current model BMW convertible, will get both extra attention, and extra aversion.
People are also very brand conscious, and people can you treat you like you are driving an expensive car, when you are driving a $4,000 Porsche, and they have a $40,000 Toyota Hybrid...such is life...
Just watched the video, the girl went from having no idea about the guy, to having a slightly better idea about the guy. I am much more likely to be friendly to a girl I don't know, at a track if she out of the blue starts talking to me, vs if I were walking through a public area, as the location, tends to show there may be at least one common interest.
