i usually get the ricers wanting to race, the muscle guys thinking im a ricer (my 8 looks bone stock besides rims being gold) with the occasional compliment, my bests were a guy driving a brand new white M3 almost get whiplash as i drove by cause he was staring so hard. and a guy riding a 600rr gave the the biker wave while in the evo. i took it as him knowing i could keep up in the twisties lol

My coworkers do comment on occasion, but it's usually not complimentary.

when i first brought my brand new ix up to anchorage back in jan 06, i had quite a few compliment my car. i worked at the military base and the gate guards would always say i have a nice car.
after a while, the compliments toned down a bit, but didn't stop.
i moved back down to cali about 6 months ago and only had 1 person compliment my car. but i do get a lot stares though

I get stares too, but without my car.

Anyways, I do get a few compliments every now and then. I also just got revved on by a guy that had a civic with a bunch of stickers and a fart can. Damn he was fast in rush hour traffic as we went from light to light.

no thats just the general conception around here the people here are very into american muscle and i live in a pretty well off neighborhood i have a very different taste then most here the nice cars are not imports here and there is only like 2 other evos within like 75 miles haha

not to mention i dont care what others think i was just making the point that thats the impressions i get around here. i dont care what parts i put on my car i am doing it for me not to others
