+ I guess because of their proven racing pedigree. The other cars are too flashy, but this one is more race car oriented.
- Cool, I didn't really know that. Learn something new every day.

This was in Irvine? Wow!

Not in Irvine, it was around Santa Ana (near Disneyland), but the guy was late 20's early 30's. He was a nice guy, and probably wasn't much of a car guy. I don't really blame him since some people are just not into cars and use them from point A to B.

*Woman pulls up in bone stock s2000*

Woman: That thing is cute! How much horsepower?
Me: 200
Woman: OMG that's a cute little car. Mine has 260! *starts to rev her engine*

Light turns green and I drive off

What kind of ride? the smiley face at the end makes me think one not involving your car.

Hmmm lets see:

At a gas station:
Random Woman- Is that the new LFA?

Me- Uhh no...It's and FRS.

Random Woman- But it looks like the LFA

At a car meet:

Random Dude- Hey bro.....why did you trade your GTR for a FRS??

Me- Something different and it handles wayyyy better

Dude- Naw bro the GTR handles better.

Me- Have you driven a GTR?

Dude- ....

Me- Then you don't know how the weight in that car transfers in back to back technical turns as compared to this car.

Dude-.....Well that's what AWD is for.

Me- This is a TRUE drivers car.

:Proceeds to walk away:

Honestly, before getting the car... I thought it sort of resembled a LFA :/

True. The guy who thought my car was a Porsche also thought Scion was a model, not a brand. To each their own I guess!

IMO it more resembles a tiburon than an LFA

Strangely, South Carolina DMV treats Scion as a model as well. Just got my registration and it's listed as a Toyota Scion. Go figure.
