Grammar
Do you remember when we were sitting in my car
Person A asks B about one particular time when they were sitting in a car. Is "Do you remember when exactly we were sitting in my car" grammatically correct and natural? Is "were sitting" the right tense? Is there a difference between "when exactly" and "exactly when"?

Thank you. Just wanted to specify. Person A isn't asking does B remember them sitting together. He wants to know when that happened. At what particular date. He doesn't remember, so he's asking B.
Does it still work for this?
