From guys-
"F U" haha
"Wow, this car looks awesome. So sick"
"I'm jealous"

From a stranger girl near my campus-
"Wow! Nice Maserati!"
Me, "It's a Toyota!"
Girl, "What?! No way! It doesn't look like one!"

I've only had it for 12 hours and these are the compliments I got. I couldn't be happier!

agree all i get is compliments and lots of ppl checking the car out.

I pulled into a public outdoor pool the other day and these kids (probably 10 years old) came running up and one of them yelled, "Wow! This is SO fast!" haha made me laugh

Unfortunately not all the attention has been positive. Just like when I was in HS driving my brothers mustang I was followed by a cop the other night. Didn't leave me alone until I pulled over.

I had a bro in a tc eyefuking the asphalt at a red light

yea he was mirin but who wouldn't

Lots of thumbs up and looking at my car. I heard a few necks snap.

I was following this Subaru WRX, clearly modded. Just as I was pulling by his side, he pressed it and went ahead. At the next light, we exchanged a smile and a thumbs up and went our merry way. No racing, just 2 car guys appreciating each other's car

Different reaction than for my Volvo S70, haha!

Had this chick tell me. Don't know if it was me and the car or just me twice...just smiled and went about my way.

A few guys came up to me in a parking lot and asked how I liked it? They said it was a sweet ride. Someone also came pulling up in my driveway to admire it lol. I see a lot of heads turn when driving on the road. Mind you this is where not a lot of cars like this on the roads of Wisconsin.

Nice! I typically sh!t in my pants when I see people pull up to take a look at the car. But I park on the street, so the chances of someone hitting the car or robbing it is higher, lol.

Had a Cayman S prior to this and it's a very different public experience. It's not the panty dropper the Cayman was, but it gets more friendly attention...thumbs up and such. Feels like you're more in a community with the FRS.

Went to teach a student some physics to prep him for his final exam (I'm a tutor at the age of 19 haha) and he asked more questions about my car than he did about the course material.
Gave him a ride to the bus stop that was less than 500 metres from the library and he said the car was so fast and he really wanted one!
