I'm pretty sure he thought he had just seen a racecar.

Some time before that there was a group of punks (I'm not that old, but these were obviously punks) on the sidewalk in my subdivision and as I drove past I heard one of them say, "You should give me your car, bro."

And just this Saturday I got her a much needed bath (I had a coupon for the executive wash with the towel dry) and a couple of the guys kept going, "Is that an 86?" to each other. I'm actually not sure if they liked it or not because I just kept hearing them talk about it being an 86.
The Lava colour messes with a lot of people's heads. It is rare enough that it seems like it is some exotic instead of a plain old FRS/86 in a flashy outfit.
