I hate to sound like a poser but that's something I like about my Eclipse and this car. It has the looks to make people who don't know that much about cars to wonder if it is actually an extremely expensive supercar. It kind of makes you feel like a million bucks even though you probably make less than a lot of people around.

And that's one good thing about the Scion logo IMO. Not everyone recognizes it. They may glance at the logo and think... what is that?? Whereas a Subaru or Toyota logo would be instantly recognizable by almost everyone.

Also, that is another reason why I want those LED/HID's and Alcantara/leather seats. No new expensive sports car comes with yellowish halogens and cheaper looking cloth seats. It's a dead giveaway that this car must be something cheaper.

But ironically, I don't really care what others think. I never bother to look at what other people are doing. However, I care and like I said, I want to feel like I've just purchased a supercar of sorts. Haha.
