"That's a turbo right?"
This is happening more frequently to me lately. People just assume it has a turbo since its a Subaru. I had a guy with a WRX ask me over the weekend and another guy in a SRT Neon make the most shocked face ever when I told him it was a NA yesterday. :D

I was pulled over for speeding on an on ramp, officer asked if it was a turbo AWD; nope naturally aspirated rear-wheel drive! He said he was surprised I was going as fast as I was.

They are ricer squids that don’t know shit about automobiles....pray you are not one yourself and don’t associate w/ them.
|
You should've answer: "Yes, it's a turbo. I mean the 2017 models, maybe"
|
I try to quickly change the subject and highlight the positive features of the vehicle.
|
when i took my dad for a ride and gunned it he asked if it had a turbo. I told him no. Wasn't a big deal, but it seems no matter what, the first question people always ask to me is "is it fast?" It's a bit annoying. Why didn't scion just make it a 2.5 liter with 250 hp?? I think sales would've been better and people would stop with the, it only has 200hp response, or turbo/supercharger/v8 argument
|
Ive gotten that question, I say "no, thats why I bought it"
|
When I get asked it it's a turbo. I say, "no it's a V8". And just walk away. Let them chew on that sh1t. Usually they get this look like they just bit into a piece of sh1t.

You might want to response with "Do you consider a 150 mph top speed fast?" |
I like to say "It's not very quick. However, it gets me laid quickly."
|
As of abt a week & a half ago--I say yes...

"Is it fast?"
"Yes, compared to a Prius" |
I get asked that question all the time, but I can honestly say, "Yes, it has a turbo."
