So after I took my brother to pick up his car from the shop... we started heading home and this Accord slowed down next to me (he was in the carpool lane). My brother was following me home the whole way home... and then he sped up. I thought nothing of it... Then he got stuck behind a truck... and we continued cruisin down the freeway at 70 MPH.
About 3 minutes later... when there was an opening to exit the car pool lane... he sped up and pulled up next to my brother... slowed down ... then sped up to race... I saw my brother starting to take off and I had to think for a second if I should join in on the fun. So I decided 5 seconds later... fuggit... why not... it's been a while and it would be fun to surprise the Accord owner with my supposedly-slow ST. So by this time... he was 4 cars lengths ahead... and my brother was 1 ahead of him... I downshifted... and passed him up easily... I could just see him in my rear-view mirrors STRUGGLIN to catch up... BUT he couldn't... So my brother and I slowed down and just let him pass us... cuz getting a ticket isn't worth it... Anyway... that's my story for the day... and my roommate and I were crackin up the whole time home. DAMN BOOST IS TOOOOOO ADDICTING.

I once raced a riced out 90 accord, in my 85 lincoln Mark VII LSC, he down shifted on the highway....i floored it and saw him in the rear view. Not bad for a huge a$$ tank of a car. |

No Honda owner would know that the ST is slow. I was driving by a rice Del Sol, wearing my TRD visor, I pointed at it, and he gave me the best look, just pure "Wtf does that mean?" -------------------- Sometimes we live to beat the odds.

What makes you say that? You can't make that assumption... There's people here that know the specs of other cars... why wouldn't Honda, Mitsu, Nissan, etc. owners not know anything about our cars? |

I know a lot about other cars because I researched a lot before deciding on the Celica. They, of course, drive Hondas. So, they probably didn't do too much research...

Heheh... again... an assumption. The Honda guys I know are probably some of the most knowledgeable about cars. Only dumb arses would assume things like this, and by doing so, I'd say you're no better than the ignorant Honda owners... It's not car maker that is bad, it's the car owners... -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"

That was only a joke. At my school, every car maker is represented by a dip****. There's was (idiot totalled it) an unmodded Civic DX who thought his car was faster than mine. There is a Toyota Supra with the worst looking paint job I've ever seen. Some guy with a Lexus IS300 has no clue what the hell is on his car, his dad just puts it on. The kid with the IS300 was making fun of the kid with the Supra for not getting the Turbo version even though he has to pay for it all. The kid with the IS300 had his daddy pay for it all. He was also saying that the Supra was slow and only had 150hp... BTW: The Supra is a 94, $14,000. The kid is paying $500 a month for car payments and insurance.

wow.=3rd gen
Anyway... just look for APC stickers on peoples cars. If there is one, chances are they won't know what there own car can do,,, much less anybody elses. BUT, if they blast past you with crazy speed, smile and know you were owned by a sleeper

that kid with the is300 is a moron, and an NA mkiv supra is faster than the is300 i too try to "know the competition" doesnt hurt to have a little knowledge about the other cars on the market. btw i test drove an IS300 for my sister today(yup, thats right, her first car is gonna be an is300/325i for her 16th b day) its a nice car, one of the few 4dr cars i would like to drive, way better than my 4dr beater car(93 protege dx) which i have to sell once my sister gets her car, we dont have room for any more cars(we now have 6 cars) the rwd bug has bitten me -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
