What do people say about your car?

I can't be the only one, I get comments on almost a daily basis.

I'm interested to see what other people have heard

Just today:

@work: That's 'your' Subaru?? I should've known. (I'm the new guy, and I work for Mitsubishi)
@gas station: Is it fast?.. "it just looks fast".. the guy laughed
@HIghway: thumbs up from a guy in a pickup truck

First thing my dad said when the windows cranked up a half inch when shutting the door.. he was like.. "Just like a Porsche!" I'm thinking.. "yeah Dad, frameless doors "

A pizza guy talked to me for a good 5 minutes as well. They know their cars

I get a lot of people asking me the difference between the FRS and the BRZ. I guess I'm addicted to the internet, I thought everyone knew this stuff by now.

I had a client say, "I wish I could afford a car like that."

She had just gotten out of a $50K Lexus SUV.

So how do you like it?

I hate it. That's why I'm driving it.
