Wikipedia's definition of a hotrod
"Hot rods are typically old, classic American cars with large engines modified for linear speed"

Nothing fits except for "car" ;-)

"Those Hyundais are pretty nice cars, aren't they?"

Summerwolf · 03-09-2016, 03:27 PM

When I first got it I had a lot of comments asking about how fast is it, and my favorite "turbo awd in that little thing must be a rocket."

IDK if anyone knew I was joking or not when I told them it was the slowest car I've ever owned and walked away.

I have told so many people that it's slow in the straights and they're essentially giving me the look as "when else would you need to be fast?" face

"Love the new Supra!"

"OMG, it's so small and cute!"

"How's it feel to be extinct?"

Usually get the nice Nissan or Honda compliments but just had an old lady at a gas station actually say that it was a cute Subaru.

I have no idea what we was trying to say...I think he just liked the car and wanted to say something about it like he knew what he was talking about.

These are both from the first day I brought her to work.

"Damn who's red Ferrari is out front?!"

and

"Yo dude, is that your fr-s out front?"
"Yes sir"
"Ohhhh, you dog."
"Woof?"

Maybe he thought it was made in Russia? Like a Lada? Or a Skoda even though it's not Russian. Scion kinda sounds like Skoda lol
