I know I just posted yesterday- but a new one already. On my way to pick up the kids today and had to stop at a gas station (different station than before).. Dude working there came outside and had a million questions for me about it- then he asked if he could take some pictures. hehe. I obliged.

"Is this the new Scion?"
"Yes, Sir." "How's it ride?" "Good. Very good, sir!" "Nice. Have a nice day!" - Exchange with the state trooper this afternoon before receiving my first speeding ticket in over five years... |

I just went to the grocery store in my FRS. As soon as I got out of my car this guy approached me and asked me how I liked it, explained how he had a BRZ and loved it.
Then after about a minute I realized he was my highschool auto tech teacher like 15 years ago. Super awesome guy, really knowledgeable about cars. Figures he would have one of these! It made my day |

Either yesterday or the day before, I went to Chipotle for lunch and parked my car. An older gentleman approached me and asked me about the car. He had just purchased a Cadillac ATS (had only 200 miles on it still). We compared cars and what we thought of them. Was a fun encounter.... And then just as we parted ways so I could grab food, a swarm of high school kids came so I dipped inside to get in line so I didn't have to wait 20 minutes for food and answer all their questions lol
And today coming back from some errands, I was on the highway and see a newer model wrx coming up at a nice clip, followed by a previous gen legacy (not sure if it was a gt or not). Both looked modded (aftermarket wheels, exhaust, etc) ... Wrx pulls up next to me, looks over, nods and smiles, then takes off .... Legacy comes up, slows down, looks at me smiling while driving past, then speeds up to catch his friend. I never have anyone try to race me, haha (not that I want to race)... but everyone either does a ricer flyby or comes up next to me to see the car, then just takes off haha. I don't get it My favorite reactions come from a Nemo keychain I have dangling from the back of my car. I've had girls driving and try to get as close as possible to snag a pic, kids smiling and looking really excited at stop lights, etc... The reactions I get are priceless, and they come from a varied population, too, even older folks. Lol |

Was picking up my sister from high school 10 min ago, I was parked on the side with my windows rolled down. Kids walking by were staring at it. One kid was just standing in front of it looking for few min then leaned in to my window and said, "the car looks dope as f***" lol

Just got a thumbs up from a NA supra, chatted for a bit at the light and surprised he hasn't seen many FRS on the road....

I had my FR-S on a car carried while moving from New Jersey to Miami and a guy with a white BR-Z gave me the thumbs up. Also when I got to MIA I went the Wendy's and some idiot that worked there asked "is that the new Hyundia?" I told him "hell no" and then he called all his coworkers to look at my car while i pulled out of the parking lot. Lastly while I went for a joy ride to Ocean Drive some guy stopped in the middle of the street and said out loud "hey your car is hot!" I was surprised because there was a Lambo Aventador parked next to me

Sadly, I have failed to garner this much attention. I've watched a few people in my rearview mirror take a picture...
Had some guy at a carwash tell me the V6 version was the one to get :smh: He then proceeded to tell me about his son's Cavalier they were gonna drag race... |
