It depends on the person you're dealing with. 98% of spectators tend to not just jump in my car. Those who do, are told to remove themselves. About half are angry at me and the other half are embarrassed. I love to show my car and to let people get close to it and check it out. Touching it dosen't bother me too much as long as nobdy starts rapping their knuckles on it, (that's another sotry). You just have to learn how to deal with it in your own way.
