I usually get a good laugh about it after. But it's always freaking awkward.

Hopefully I can find someone or someone finds me who at least shares some of my interest. :/

My wife doesn't know much about cars and she is not really into driving, but she loves ridng with me and is very excited about the incoming BRZ. Her liking the car was part of my decision to buy it.

I like to think of this top as two folds. 1. People who has no idea about cars think my car is nice and think I am rich. I hate this cuz it makes me feel pretentious and my co-workers think I make too much. 2. People who knows what this car is all about and compliments me on my choice of car, that is good.

Oh and about the wingman thing, I would think it works on most chicks. Know car or not, chicks can love this car.

Back before my wife and I were serious, she helped me replace the rear main seal on my Eclipse. Sometime after, I mentioned it to my brother. He asked me if we were dating.

I said, "I dunno. We're just hanging out... friends, blah blah" He looked at me with a dead serious look "Dude, she helped you drop your transmission. She's your girlfriend."

I'm not smart. That was the turning point in our relationship.

It would be cool to come up with a routine to fuck with them.

My GF loves it and drives it from time to time. She gets a lot of looks from dudes as it is so I'm always curious how bold guys get when they see her in the BRZ.

For me I've gotten some looks but never talked to or attempted to pick up any girls because girlfriend lol.

My wife hates my car.

"Too loud and uncomfortable."

I think its because I drive it loudly and uncomfortably.

She loves the Audi I bought her though. #golddigger

Im in socal. The only girls who have gotten remotely excited about driving in my car are two from Ireland. They were visiting for a week and the whole time they were taking turns riding with me since I would only take 1 at a time.
