the best one is that one time a girl came to me saying that she liked my Porsche.. i didn't correct her... i just said thanks!

I hate it when people ask if it's fast.

You sort of have to go "ehhhhh, well, that's not really the point of the car" and they just go "oh".

I tell them what FR-S stands for.
F---ing really slow.

Last week, some guy at Taco Bell told me I drove a really nice Hyundai.

I don't go to that Taco Bell anymore.

Had a guy ask me about my Supra at a gas station while standing behind my car. I've lost faith in humanity.

when i tell people its really slow, they think i mean the opposite

but honestly, it is got high corner exit speeds, much higher than i expect everytime i go fast

10Tim · 12-05-2013, 10:48 PM

Had a kid on a corner (looked to be about 8 or 9 years old) give me a thumbs up as I went around. I smiled and gave him a thumbs up back.

Also, my older neighbor lady asked me "did you win that in a race?" Hahaahaa...I used to race motorcycles. I was tempted to tell her some tall tale and get all the neighbors talking, but I relented and told the truth.

When people ask if it's fast I say 'fast enough to get a ticket real quick'. That has satisfied them so far.

Was in my room and heard some young kids (13-14) on skateboards stop in front of my house mentioning how sick a car was and heard one say "i wonder how fast it goes" i looked outside to see this sick car..to my surprise he was looking in my window to see how high my speedometer went..hah

Sounds like a metaphor for making love.

How about Fantastically Responsive Sideways?

Well, I do make sweet, sweet love to my car... you knoooow.

On that same note, Fantastically Responsive Sideways sounds like a metaphor for a sexual position.

I have my speech down pretty good:

1. Like the front bumper better
2. Insurance somehow is cheaper by $10/mo
3. Got $5k off an FR-S with 4000 km on the ODO
4. I got some Subaru, (opens hood and points at engine)

Was asked by someone if my Scion had a turbo inside it. I explained to them that this is how the car sounds naturally. I love the sound of this engine!
