Just saw a thread alike this on a UK celica forum under generation 7 celica's. Found it pretty funny to read.

I'll start out wink.gif

At some place i lived earlier, The neighbors kids was like "Wow, is it a porsche?".

When i go to some drag racing places, People always love it, I had my drags with it wink.gif. I only was racing a BMW 325 vs my 3sge. it won 1 round and i won 2 tongue.gif.

Anyone else got some stories to tell?.

-kid in a rental minivan (tourist) used his disposable camera to take a picture of the car, lol
-guy asked me if it was for sale recently, even though the car hadnt seen a wash in months.
-etc.

I was in the 2nd to left lane on the freeway today (right by the hammer lane) going about 70mph and a G35 came flying up behind me and slows down right next to my car. There was about 6 people in the car and I swear all of them had there hands against the window and were just STARING at my car and pointed at it. I just kinda laughed, and after about 2 mins of them cruising next to me, they took off again.

SO many people have no idea what kind of car mine is. It's funny. laugh.gif

No, it looks like a hooker put her acid vag on your hood. Acid vag = bigger problem than a few dings.
