One guy almost fell completely into a garbage can at a highway rest stop. It may be partially due to them being pretty scarce around here but I also suspect the colour grabs their attention.


Oh dear...

*IF* I were to custom paint mine - and I'd have to get new plates if I did, mind you, so it's not likely to happen any time soon - it'd likely be a metallic purple.

But everyone who knows me will tell you the hot lava is fitting. Works well with the hair

Someplace on here is a very shiny purple wrap that had me drooling!

LOL. Maybe it wasn't a typo but a subconscious thought on my part.

Also this car just has that signature look of perfection that will never go away.

Other than the mention of "bud hairs" which I can only guess the meaning of (and the mental image is not even remotely attractive), I have long thought a nice British Racing Green would look excellent on this car. In lieu of brown wheels maybe a nice bronze with the green paint...

The pic doesn't have bronze wheels obviously, but I do think they might look nice. Especially with tan leather upholstery.

That is perfect it gives off a TMNT vibe as well as the spokes could be a bronzey armor of hairs. Fantastic

Back on topic.

Had a mother daughter team swarming around my car one time at a shopping center; staring at it from different angles. I'd parked next to their just purchased BRZ and they were totally confused about it wearing Scion badges. Spent 15 minutes explaining "twins", and giving out other info regarding tires, maintaining and driving, etc.

You dog! However, I've only found a couple of Hooters where the girls were consistently amazing. I know you're not in Texas, but if you ever get here try Bone Daddy's. The BBQ ribs aren't all that's "outstanding". Twin Peaks isn't half bad for gorgeous displays of feminine pulchritude either.

I think the main thing that gets me about Hooters is the opaque pantyhose. Meh...

Takes a FRS to a service department and gets a "meh" takes a Ferrari to Hooters and gets a "hooray". Thinks this is in some way a comparison?
