I rarely get any attention in the san francisco bay area because there are too many damn nice cars here.

I had some dude in a red chrysler sebring(I think) kind of do a parking lot hover/drive by around my car then come back and ask me about it. At first I thought it was some girl and her grandmother who like buzzing nice cars because I see that shit all the time. People come a little too close to parked cars while driving through the middle of the lot.

I double parked in a drive way to take out something from the trunk and a person walking on the side walk told me he was leaving and I could have his spot. Told him I'd only a second and he told me he liked my car. I said thanks and we went on our ways.

Here are the few that actually involved people talking to me.
- I was washing mine in the driveway a few weeks ago and random guy from the condos next to our place is cooling down from his run and starts to ask me about my FRS. How's it drive, etc. - Heading to my car at work and the guy next to me is looking it over when I unlock it. He asks me if it's true that you can get the rear end to slide with ease. I smile and tell him that it's the easiest thing in the world. - The manager at the Wendy's I go to regularly loves my car. Whenever he sees me pull up he makes a point of coming over. We had a foot of snow earlier in the week and he asked me if I was going to drive it all winter. You bet I am. |

Guy in a old mustang at my local quikcheck came over while we were pumping gas and was asking about my car. Once we finished at the pump we pulled over and we traded cars for a couple minutes admiring the differences. He got out of mine and asked to trade! He could not stop talking about how low the car was in comparison and felt so neutral with the controls (he liked the adjusted clutch) and the seats. The mustang felt so...tall and there was too much room...it was really weird.

i've had a few people at the gym talk to me about the car, i let one guy even come out and sit in it to check it out because he said he was thinking of getting one for his next car.
oddly enough my grandma who is 77 absolutely loves it lol. she said she wanted to get an automatic one! that would be awesome if she did haha. |

Personally, my "favorite" experience of someone checking my ride would have been not too long ago on my way to work. I stopped at a red light and an older black man pulled up next to me in a 350z (~2005 olderish model) and motioned for me to put the window down. I doubt the last thing he expected was for the window to come down, DMX blaring and a young blonde girl to be eating a Mcgriddle as tho I gave no cares that someone was attempting to talk to me. haha His face was
PRICELESS. I turned the radio down and he asked if it was my car (the most common question I get asked about it, directly followed by HOW FAYUSST IS IT? Alabama problems...). Really nice man just a really funny experience! ![]() ![]()

Driving up to a stop light on the left lane, when I saw a blue BRZ with the license plate FT 86 pull out of the mall. Drove up next to me at the stop light. Lowered our windows and greeted each other. I'm 24, I wanna guess that guy was late 30s early 40s, he had a kid with him. Cool that people from two different age groups were united by a car for that moment
![]() Oh, and when I pick up/drop off my little sis at the high school, all the kids gaze at the car lol |

I walked out of work one day to see a guy taking picturesof MY car with his cell phone, he then proceeded to tell me that he was so happy he bought it and that hes dumped a bunch of money into it, and its so fast and he just kept going on....
I proceeded to walk over to my car, unlock it, and wave a certain finger around as i drove past him.

Suppose he has one in the same color, and the weather and light was just right for pics then.
Dissing another twin owner. Shoot him a raspberry or two when your car shows up in the DSLR thread
