On a thread related note, when I took my FR-S into get it serviced, the young service writer (about 23, I reckon ...

), said to me as I handed him my FR-S service card .... "Is that YOUR FR-S??".

I reckon he was expecting a Buick.

Or worse yet, they had never serviced an FR-S ....

Lol goobers :]

Also on a thread related note, pretty much broke someone's neck when they did a double take checkin my car out. They had a deer in the headlight kinda look. Awesome feeling!

LOL. Nope, no kids of any kind to remind me how old I am. As Gene Hackman said, "I only feel old when I look in the mirror and see my Grandfather looking back at me".

Had a minivan try to chase me down on the freeway the other day. I finally noticed when they damn near caused a wreck knifing through traffic to get behind me.
The minivan was loaded down with a middle aged man and a bunch of teenagers.

Went to my local Chevy dealership to pick up my Suburban in for a little rear end maintenance. A service tech walking out of the shop said, "Wow, that's a Scion! Didn't know they made anything that cool!" He then proceeded to call out the other mechanics to give it the once over.

Took the car to the local Cars and Coffee here in Charleston, once I popped the hood it got about as much attention as the Ferrari's and Lambos. Well ok maybe not that much but still quite a bit. Most people were interested in any mods I've done to it and really interested in the handling and such. Overall though very good reactions from everyone.

This car kind of does look like the LFA in the front. Maybe that us why it gets a lot of attention?
