I was at the dragstrip racing a couple weeks ago and was racing this big chevy or ford truck with a huge canopy on it. This thing was running like 18's lol. Well the announcer was sitting there talking up the truck like it was so quick. Talked about it for a good 20 seconds or so before the race started, then all he said about me was.. "i think it's a subaru"... imports get so **** on sometimes lol

" That wing is kinda embarrassing"

I took a couple co workers for a ride, I just bought this car on 5/20/11, My car was running on e85 at the time, took them for a ride all i hear and see on there faces is
HOLY ****, This thing is insane,

I love the look on people face when i give them rides in my car. Even better when i let the few drive it in the parking lot and the dont even get on it at all, and are so thrilled to have a chance to sit in and ride/drive my car. That make me feel nice knowing i am the cherry on top of there day!! lol

Take my cammed Evo to a muffler shop to have the tip modified on a Works muffler and the manager asks me "Your car sounds all ****ed up! What's wrong with the idle?". I told him it was running on three cylinders.

Pulled up next to a WRX at a red light the other day with my windows down, was just sitting there minding my own business....his window goes down "hey man, is that turbo?"

"yes" Not having looked closely at his car I ask "is that an STi"?

"no, I couldn't afford that"..."hey is yours five speed?"

"No it's the dual clutch, lots of fun...."

Ohhh.....**confused look**

Wow. I wouldn't reply. Just slowly walk away.

I haven't gotten anything stupid yet, but I did get this while pumping gas.

Guy: That looks like a fun "little" car...(with a gay smile on his face)
Me: Yeah, it is.

I couldn't tell if he was mocking me or was being serious.

75% of the time that someone gets in my car and doesn't know about turbo charging

Ignorant person: Hey, this things really fast, what is it? A V8?
Me: No....
Ignorant person: A V6?
Me: NO!...
Ignorant person: Well WTF is it?!?!?!
Me: It has four cylinders with a twin scroll turbo charger
Ignorant person: Oh, so at least it it has two turbos, that's cool
Me: Face palm, application of S-Sport mode

Parked next to an Evo 8 at a car show, and his buddy who seems to know what an evo is asks me hey is that the railliart?... Really dude, I took offense to that, I think it makes itself pretty clear its an evo with the wide body, aero kit, brembos, EVOLUTION badge, and large rear wing...

There are some people who shouldn't like cars.
