Can you share some funny car hopping stories?
There was this incident where a group of friends were playing a prank on one of their buddies. They removed the keys from his car and watched as he tried to start it multiple times. Then, when he finally gave up and got out to check under the hood, they quickly put the keys back. When he hopped back in and the car started, he was so confused and we all had a great laugh.
I once saw a guy car hopping in a hurry. He thought he was getting into his own car which was parked among many similar - looking ones. As he opened the door and sat down, he realized it was not his. The look on his face was priceless when the actual owner showed up a moment later.

Share some funny car buying stories.
I have a funny story too. A guy went to a used car lot. He saw a car that looked really cool. When he asked about the price, the dealer said it was very cheap because it was haunted.
