Well, I admit it. I love to sit at the light and admire my car's reflection... especially when the angel eyes are on in early morning or late afternoon.

My all time favorite is a black pickup truck with a nice flat tailgate and nice and clean. That gives the best reflection. Although, recently I was behind a silver Mazda 3 and it provided a pretty cool reflection too... the concave trunk lid gives a nice semi-fisheye view of your baby, and has no emblems or license plate in the way.

What's your favorite?

LED, I have a Harley-Dealsership in the same parking lot. The Building is all mirrored glass, right down to curb level. So yeah, I catch myself staring into the reflection as I roll by....

And we wonder why people key our cars...

But yeah, I know what you mean, I just try not to let anyone know what I'm doing.

My favorite is being behind a cop car... simply because it means they're not behind me...

School buses - thir rear window makes for a good reflection.

Parking in front of a shop....some shop's have very reflective window's!

...I guess that can be the best thing besides a mirror to check out your car...
