Fancy cars are not welcomed

Last Sunday I went to Auto-Mall with my bf. We were attending a gathering of his Honda Automotive Club. Such a guy thing.
And on our way out of the mall we came by the main hall. There's a major outlet there and they displayed these hottest babes in town.
There's this red hot Ferrarri with it's plane-like body, a delight to the eyes from any angle. Then there was an angel-guarded Rolls and Royce with a big, long and wide nose, such a waste of space, because the nose itself could contain two other seats. One car was so enormous I believed it was a hybrid of truck and tractor. The wheels diameter must be about a meter. I was imagining how it felt to drive one.
Jakarta with its disastrous traffic. The least you want would be your several-billion-baby got scratched by an ugly orange unmannered metromini, or worse, bajaj. Well, if you own such car, it's most possible you own a reserved parking, so on-road parking hazard could be wiped out from the list. The huge tractor-truck hybrid might come in handy if you live in one of the poorer suburbs, where road-holes are a miniature of a swamp. Or if you happen to be a rich farmer, which, in this country, is most unlikely.
And then at last, we came by this mini car. It's so tiny and it's perfectly build for lovers. With it's two seated interior, definitely no worries at all about some one asking for a lift. It's sleek, it can easily slip between other vehicles.
And when I said it's build for lovers, I really mean it. It's specially build for having dates, after office hour dates, and mostly weekend dates. If you work on one of those skyscrapers in the most-taxed road in Jakarta, you can forget showing it off to your work-buddies.
Why?
Because a two-seater car can't possibly going into three-in-one zone.
