Love all the stories in this thread haha.

Seems like little kids know and love this car. I'm talking like 8-12 year olds. I get kids giving me the thumbs up all the time while their riding their skateboards. Lol.

Had an old lady say, "Wow, must be an expensive car”. I chuckled haha.

Had a douche guy at a gas station keep on mean mugging me about my car in his rsxs. Kept on asking me what kind of car I had and kept implying that it was a Subaru. "It's a Toyobaru!".

So they can hear the wail of our ferocious 4 banger?

I don't need that embarrassment in my life.

The most common so far has been "Why would Subaru make a car thats not all wheel drive?" My answer is always "because you can do things with this one you'd never be able to do in an impreza," and then I show them Clarkson's top gear review on youtube, with a particular emphasis on the part where he's drifting at 20 MPH.

I've had a couple people say "that's a subaru? it looks like a (insert model here.... mostly FRS or Porsche though)"

My dad asked me when he gets to drive it.

I've also been hit on my several of my female co-workers who are very shallow. My girlfriend was thrilled with that.

Mind you this all happened in 2 and a half days. I can't wait to see the results as more people see my new car!

At a men's clothing store today to buy a suit for my wedding. Sales guy...

"You got a 928 out there?"

I tried to remember if there were any actual Porsches in the parking lot. There weren't.

Me: "Ah, the white one? No it's a Subaru."
Him:"What?! Oh wow. I had no idea."

A very confused old man asked me last week if my BRZ was the new Mustang.
