My theory is that the people who are going to pay to have someone move their car 5 feet don't care much for driving, and won't buy a manual.

Had someone in a Celica GT4 rip up on me and downshift beside me in a 100km/h zone last night, had my oil been up to temperature I probably would have given him a taste of my super loud exhaust quickly.

I was getting out of my car, and this cute girl walking by said "nice car" while smiling. For some reason i froze and all that i could muster as a reply was "nice face".

...I'm great at parties.

this thread hasn't been updated in a long time.

I got a "nice car" from an old man (looked to be the same age as my grandpa) coming out from my gym. Its funny because whenever I go workout he's always in the middle of the free weights next to all the body builders. like buff guy, buff guy, grandpa, buff guy, buff guy...lol awesome dude.

anymore sweet ride stories?

A middle age woman with her teenage son told me my FRS is a cute little white car. Told her thanks and drove off with a smile. I thought the FRS look mean and aggressive.

I went and parked my car at a wawa (local convenience store) and came out and a older guy parked next to me in a pickup said nice car and then proceeded to ask me about my snow tires and if they made the ride softer. He was looking for tires that would make his porsche 911 softer and less firm pretty cool guy we talked for a few minutes about cars.

Parked at a grocery store, car looking dirty as f*ck (thanks road salt!) and got a nod from a guy driving by in a Fisker Karma. Coming back out, a previous gen Audi TT parked next to me and that guy took a second look at the car as he walked by. Not a bad day there.
