Does anyone remember the story of Prince riding with a fan?

I seem to recall a story from possibly 13 years ago, may have been in Controversy magazine, of Prince riding in a fan's purple car.

Does this ring a bell or can anyone validate it?

No way is this true. Prince doesn't say hi to fans let alone ride in cars with them.

Mike1, how old are you? Prince said hello and even spoke with fans during the Vegas shows back in May of this year. First hand information from those who went to the show.

Yep,

it's true.

If I'm correct the story took place in Hamburg.
The german girl in question was a diehard fan just like the 3 italian girls who travelled after P during concerts.

She had a Renault 4 of Beetle with the word Prince written on the side. I thought it was white but maybe it was the follow up car.
She was parked near a club or hotel.
Prince jumped into the car and was escorted by the limo.

Can you imagine Prince in a car with Prince written all over it. You wouldn't believe it...

Common, Prince did so many things the audience does not know about it. When tickets went on pre-sale in the 80's, I think in Rotterdam, he was dancing/standing on the roof of his limo near the ticket boot.

Or maybe he was just sticking his head out of the sun roof, but it is a fun story nonetheless.

I think it was Amsterdam at one of the few spot in the Netherland that sold real tickets at that point. The limo driver wasn't to happy with it as the heels made scratches on his roof/hood.
