What's the most rediculous comment you've ever received about your car???

I thought that this would be a fun experiment. I saw this on another forum and they had really retarded answers.

Post away

I was driving down the road and some guy in another car heard my BOV. He then said that the NOS sounded cool.

I have had two.
First one was at the drag strip. It's a backwoods 1/8th mile and full of muscle cars. Of course all the imports there had wings because they were little kids that think its cool. As I got up to race, the guy came over the speaker and said "another four cylinder so fast it needs a wing". Too bad the mustang didnt have one, I blew him out lol.

Second on was at a little meet that goes down every weekend. Again mostly hondas there but some cars that show up are worth going. I am wingless at this point and have been for a while. Well as I am leaving some kids makes the comment "what happened to your wing, fall off?" and then he proceeded to laugh histarically like it was a great joke.

Those are about it.

My father-in-law first saw my Evo IX when I'd removed the wing. After glancing at the back end of it he said, "That's what I should get; a nice basic economy car."

Parked off of Woodward Ave during the Dream Cruise (if you dont know - its the biggest 1 day car event in the world...local to MI).

I was near the car and over heard two young guys checking her out:
"So, this is that twin turbo 4 cylinder?"
-"No, its a V6 turbo."

--Just want to mention that the hood was open...

That's the best one, because I had a guy that thought my tire blew out!

I was driving this chick home when she asked " Is this a Saturn"? because apart from the seats, the interior doesn't look like a $35k car. -__-

I have also had some dumbass kids call it ricey because of the wing. I just smile at them because they have no idea how amazing this car performs.

I have also had this one guy who looked at my speedo and said "160mph? yeah right, this thing would never get up there" I proved him wrong last weekend.
