i like hearing stories on this forum ..

for example ..
I go to college ... there is a guard.. who opens the gate for the students to enter .. and we have to prebare an ID card to enter ... while i don't have anything to prebare ... the guard just opens the gate and gives me a wave ! without checking my ID .. and when i enter .. he checks out my ride from behind while i pass ..

i went to get an oil change, and they hired a girl to drive all the cars into the bays. when it was my cars turn, this is the dialogue.

manager: i'll take the car in.
girl: why? i know how to drive stick.
manager: it's to much car for you.
girl: whatever. (walks away mad)

HAHA. i thought this was hilarious.

i own a white rs, a wingless evo, and livin in the redneck county, most people dont know wtf it is, only a handful people have came up to me and said, "sweet car dude, is that the rs evo?"

but usually if there's a gathering of honda-drivin high schoolers at a local gas station they all raise thair hands at me, a rather good feeling to finally have respect from other young people since i grew up as one of those quiet dorks who was always picked on..
but anyway, there's my input...

The cops tend to treat me "special" with their laser guns, but not in a good way...

I agree, I have had a lot of people tell me that it is a really nice car, and then ask me what kind of car it is. I was filling up with gas once and these two redneck guys were filling up their pickups right next to me, and I could hear them saying to each other "You ever heard of an Evolution before". At the time I had a small sticker on each front door that said "EVOLUTION VIII". I thought it was kina funny.

I have too many people trying to stare through me when I'm stopped at the stop light.

It's funny when I feel like I have a hole burning on my head so I turn to their general direction and they look away real quick.

Some of the guys in Honda's are amazed at the brembo brakes. I caught more than few just starring until the guy behind them hunk at them cause they're stopping traffic.
