How do you answer the follow?
Today I went to the local autozone to pick up some sandpaper. A girl saw me get out of my BRZ and went into the store before me. I was behind her at the register and she asked me if my car was fast.
I replied "No, it's slow, but it really hooks the road" Now this isn't the first time I was asked this question and I always answer the same way. What about you guys? |
...I say yes.
before though, i'd say "she's not fast, but she's quick" then walk off while they were confused |
I've been on here too long, I was trying to find the original version of this thread then realized I had better things to do...
I just say it's not that fast but it's fun, either they get or they don't, I'm not going to wait around and explain it to them. |
I would say fast enough. It is compared to a lot of "iconic" sports cars
|
See, I struggle with this question because the FR-S is the fastest car I've driven. She's fast to me. I have absolutely no experience with higher HP/faster cars. So I want to say yes, but this site has brainwashed me because everyone talks about how slow this car supposedly is, so when I'm asked I just go, "It's quick/agile, probably not as fast as something with a lot more horse power though." I feel it's an honest answer from what I seen here, but personally I don't feel like it's honest because it's not really my answer.
|
I say it's not too bad, and usually mentioning it's pretty light and it's RWD is enough to get a "that's interesting" look.
|
I always answer that question with its faster than my other car. If they ask what's my other car then I say a Prius!
|
next time just invite her for a ride, let the car answer it for her.
(better know some good roads closeby the autozone) if shes fat and ugly, dont do that, car will scrape. |

Or you cant look right cause shes ugly and you might crash and scrape the car? Good idea on the invite though |
"It's fast around corners!"
|
slow, plain and simple answer
|
i saw slow as hell but really fast in the corners.
|
You could tell the them the car isn't about top speed or 0-60 times, that it was designed with handling being the priority .

Simple answer: "I'd like to show you sometime, just how fast it/she is."

"No, it's really slow. I like to do everything really slow. If you know what I mean. What mean is sex."
|
My answer would be "Are you? If so, lets go for a ride caus I like fast cars and faster women!!!!!"
I live my life a quarter mile a quarter mile at a time baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Before my response was "fast enough for me".
Now I say "yea, its really fucking fast" but that's because now it is. |
"Fastest car in the world, last I checked."
|
I once heard a fellow 86 owner say "it's entertainingly fast" so I use that now.
|
What i would answer.. Compared to what?
There are alot of faster cars but alot slower cars 2 and what is fast? 0-62mph? or top speed? when you are used to driving a prius the GT86 is fast when you are used to driving an EVO the GT is slow however when your used to driving a GTR that same EVO is considered slow... |
When i was filling my car up with petrol a random guy came over and asked "what is it like to drive"?.
I replied with "like a big go kart". |
Someone asked me about top speed one day and I replied ~144. They said "That bitch looks like it goes 200".
After, they couldn't get why I was laughing so hard. |
If the girl was a looker I would have said "Can ya drive STICK?" :D
|
"Is it fast?"
"Fast enough to get into a lot of trouble." |
"Is it fast?"
"not really.." |
"Is it fast?"
"I wouldn't know, its a rental with exhaust." |
"Well you can see for yourself, hop in."
|
"Fast enough now step away from my super car you peasant"
|
My answer is "she goes. Especially around corners."
|
"Almost lost my pink to a Prius driver."
|
i usually say, "no, not really but its a really fun car"
|
My response to these questions:
"It's wont win a stop light drag race, but around the corners it's a hell of a lot of fun." |
i get this all the time.... i just tell them "its a drivers car" then i just carry on my way:burnrubber:
people that ask if your car is fast are what i call "basher drivers" all fast in straight line:clap: anyone in a fast car can go fast in the straight away but a well balance car is more fun to drive... |
i was asked "is it fast?" today by a stranger... i just said "its not fast, but it handles really well"
him "its sweet, ive never seen one before" LOL:bonk: |
I say "Yeah, it's pretty fast. Nothing too crazy." This let's me be honest and humble at the same time.
|
I say not to bad have to have it high revving but handles awesome. I used to own a v8 before and power, there is no comparison but to drive I would choose the brz any day.
