Is your car fast?
 
So, for the last 4 months since I have owned this car I have been asked this question a lot by random people. Is your car fast? Or what's the fastest you have been in this car?
How often you you guys asked this question and what is your response?

"Im fast on corners"

I just say that it drives like a go kart.
According to my (camry driver) mrs it goes way too fast and she lectures me on the benefits of slow driving.

There are benefits? Is it worth the boredom?

A car is only as fast as its driver

Dipstik-sportech 10-06-2013 09:40 PM

Nope. Slower than my mini bike

ZionsWrath 10-06-2013 09:43 PM

Just say no and leave it at that. If they are asking that question it's not worth the explanation.

I'd agree with this. You can have a fast car but if the driver doesn't know how to handle it the power is worthless.

I had a Lancer Ralliart driver approach me at a gas station the other day who asked me a slew of questions.

Thing thing looks expensive - how much was it?

It looks great - how fast does it go?

Are those wheels the OEM wheels?

I replied with: your car is more expensive, faster, and no those are aftermarket wheels.

Sadly, I've near Berne asked this question. Although I've been told stuff like, "it looks fast, etc."
