I've received the Maserati name before.

Clint520 03-01-2013 05:38 PM

I was told by an old man that my BRZ looked like a Fiat.

i was filling up gas once and a lady thought it was a Maserati, She said it looked a lot like her friends lol. Also someone thought it was a Ferrari once lol.

SubieNate 03-01-2013 06:40 PM

I had this redneck guy come over to me in the Vons parking lot a while back and say, "Hey man, is that a Scion or a Porch, looks like a Porch to me!" (Misspelling to emphasize accent). I just said, "Well, it says Scion on the trunk!" ;)

"what car is it"

and

"is than an FR-S"

Septic 03-01-2013 06:52 PM

Once, a guy in the car lane next to me asked if it was an Aston Martin.

Apparently you haven't met me.

Mandy 03-01-2013 07:30 PM

I get a lot of "what car is that" and "nice car". Just today I was headed to Home Depot to get some buckets to wash my baby, park next to a nice old lady in whatever that Mercury re-branded Ford Five-Hundred was. "That's a very nice car", she said. Needless to say, I love my FR-S.

I'm having déjà vu just reading the first five comments!

Chewie4299 03-02-2013 01:02 AM

I've gotten Maserati and Porsche.

Makes me feel kinda good to correct those folks and tell them it's a Toyobaru

Karl07 03-02-2013 01:19 AM

I only ever get
"what is that?"
"86"
"86 what?" or "it doesn't look that old...?"

636 03-02-2013 01:22 AM

I've taken the FRS badge off, so I've gotten the "Is this the new tC?" or, "What kinda car is that!"

I've had someone tell me my car looks like it has exotic DNA though, that's about it.

Don't read it.

My favorite story: I pull into my local gas station. Get my car pumping and step well away from the car and pump. So I am now on the side of the building out of view.

This guy comes outta no where from my view. "Oh my God!! What the **** is this? Oh my God!! Who's car is this? Oh my God!!"

He then spots me as I'm chuckling at his yelling in the middle of a gas station. I mean full throttle yelling.

"Is this your car?" Still yelling mind you. "Yep, it's mine. It's a BRZ." I then go into the status quo explanation of the twins.

He asks me to do a six-po on it. "Not gonna happen now guy. I've just gotten off and selling my car is the last thing I wanna do right now."

He says "That's cool. Thanks for the explanation and information."

He was some kinda temp sales guy working at the dealer across the street.

Gearhd79 03-02-2013 12:27 PM

people ask what it is and i just tell them its the new Scion FRS..and then they say "Scion ? whats that?" ..then that say they love the color..

Wattage 03-02-2013 01:41 PM

People call my FRS a BRZ all the time....

Dustin 03-02-2013 03:17 PM

get over yourself

anyways, ive got "is that a 370z!?"

DarkSunrise 03-02-2013 04:49 PM

I've gotten the LFA question before from a random gas station attendant. Also Lamborghini from a female friend.

Not everyone knows about cars, but apparently people recognize a low, sleek shape.

Despite what the Toyota marketing team wants you to believe the FR-S has way more in common with the first few generations of the Celica than it does with a 80's Corolla :slap:
