"Is that an evo?"

So my fiancee came home the other day from her work and tells me this...(works at a top notch daycare)

"I was walking the kids back to the classroom when one of the parents stopped me in the hall and asked if I drove that awesome green car. I said of course! He replied with 'is that an evo?' And I said uh...no its a Galant. And his next reply 'Is it a mitsubishi? Are you sure its not an Evo?'"

It might be more of a thing to say in person but its hilarious. Picture below of her car. Background is white due to using it for a business card. For her dads shop. And the only photo I have at the moment.

People actually mistake that for an Evo? Oh no....

I actually had that body Galant, a '97. You just soiled my fond memories of it.

Like she wouldn't know what her own car was. Some people are amazing.

theres only 2 times I've seen something online and just became speechless.....no funny or smart *** remark can be said... this now is the 3rd time I don't really have anything to say. I wonder what the person would have said if you said yeah it's an evo, you should tried to sell it to them.

Quick cleaning and moved to Other Cars... you know, because it's about a car that's not an Evo.

(I swear, people just dump anything into OT! )

Appropriate response is: 'of course its an Evo, want to buy it'

This car, quite frankly . . . . . . is an excellent cure for the will to live.
