QUOTE(azian_advanced @ Jun 26, 2005 - 3:10 AM) i gotta say.. i love reading these! keep 'em comin guys.... [right][snapback]304864[/snapback][/right] i had one guy at a gas station ask me how my supra was treating me. i told him it was a celica, and he was like "oh. its got the supra headlights though." i replyed "no those are celica headlights." he said i know its a celica but the headlights look like a supra's" then hea traced around my right low beam then the high beam with his finger and whispered "supra". i wasnt in a mood to tell him he was an idiot, so i just said "oh" . ive stopped conversations driving by people. there was a group of like 5 or 6 girls talking as i drove by, and one of them pointed at my car and they all turned and stared. a guy in a 3000gt twin turbo asked if the celica was a supra i said yeah twin turbo. then he revved at me, i was like ummmm... i was in the far right lane so i said, "i gotta turn here" and turned. i see him all the time and he just stares at my car |

Best compliment I have ever gotten was when 25thcelica and I went to a Toyota dealership for some parts and the salesmen were all over our cars asking if we would trade them in. They were saying how this were they're favorite celica model and wanted one for they're selves.

I was driving about a week ago about to make a right hand turn, this 5series BMW pulls up next to me to make a left hand turn with two kids in the car and try to get me to race. It was a 25 MPH zone which cops are on all the time, so i was like nah but if i see you on route 9 (highway near me) then i will. And they were like "what's the matter you dont think your Supra could keep up?", i just smiled and kept going. I've also had my manager and numerous people at work ask me how i could afford a Supra. Guess that Supra wing really does the job.

our cars really are the younger sister of the supra, inside and out there are many similarities in shape and style. Its not suprising to me that people would mix the two up, even if there are huge differances.

I have a really wealthy cousin who looked at my car and asked "Is it a Maserati?" When I laughed, he said "No, really - What is it? It's beautiful." This other guy looked at my car, asked what kind it was and said he needs to buy one for his wife.
Also, after school when i drop the top, i get a lot of girls saying "Scott I didn't know you had a convertible! When can I ride in it?" |

about a year ago when i had my bone stock car for like a month a mid-aged lady said, "thats a nice car." the other day, now with a few mods, i was going through the taco bell drive thru and the dude that worked there said i had a really nice car except for the thing i had my right hand on (auto). im getting tired of paying $1-3 all the time to drive my friends' sticks .

Today i was at Stewart's (a lil ice cream convenient mart store near me for those that dont know), anyways, i was standing next to my car with a couple of friends and these two guys about 35 or 40 say they like my car. We get talking and they ask me what kind of car it is, took them about 4 guesses before i had to tell them it was a celica, haha i love when people dont know what kind of car it is. One of the guys even went in his car and gave me two bottles of Eagle One wet spray wax to use. He was like "here ya go, this sh*t will make your car shine like you wouldn't believe". And then they also thought it was a 2000, they didint believe it was 10 years old.....gotta love it.

someone else mistook my celica for a paseo boy was i pissed! my neighbors kids beg me to burn out for them, they are infatuated with my car, i know it will always be safe in my circle... the kids are always eyeballing it. -------------------- |

I am tired of the "Nice Supra", haha. I don't explain anymore it's a Celica...I just give it a little gas and the BOV goes WOO WOO, haha. And I am also tired of going to the gas station, and have the whole place freeze just to stare at my car and stare at every movement I do from the time I get out of the car to the time I get done pumping gass. My body is stock...I don't wanna know how it's going to be when I install the GT-4 bumper, hood and rear splitters. I had this girl say: "Is that an Integra...it's nice" I was offended so I replied: "CELICA". She gave me an "I'm sorry" look, hehe. I haven't had NOBODY instigate a race...even when the car was stock. Now, when I'm driving my dad's Neon or sister's Echo, everybody wants to race, muahaha!

I am so tired of argueing with people who don't know a thing about cars, but think they do.
Something I can't stop laughing about is one of my friends who's parents just got a bright yellow Toyota Scion XB. The thing is butt-ugly, no joke. It's nicknames are Toaster, Buzz, and Tillamook. But my friend loves it, and is convinced it rocks. He tells everyone that his dad had an after-market exhaust put on that adds 40 hp(lol), and that he can take Civics. I just smile and nod, then laugh my head off when his back is turned. Or the guy who recently drove an Oldsmobile Cutlass, and was convinced that is was "so fast!!", and that it could do 0-60 in 6 seconds or less. Most recently, i was just watching the Fast and the Furious for the first time with some friends. As soon as Dom's car first rolls up, one of my friends asked me what it was. I was like, "it's an rx-7 with some multi-thousand dollar veilside body kit." Another one of my friends then didn't believe me and argued with me the whole rest of the movie saying it was a Dodge Viper. He didn't believe me until after the movie when I looked it up for him on the internet. -------------------- |

When I first got my car, my 7 year old little brother said, "Ohhhhh!!! Race Car!!!"
My girlfriend (who i've been dating before I got my celi) who really doesn't care much for cars or their styling, when she first saw the car, she said "Woah, this is actually pretty nice." Of course now, she's just jealous of her, because I spend probably 100X more $$ on my car than her, and much more time. My friend who drives a suped up integra totally thought my car was going to kick his ass, even though he had half a dozen performance mods.. Another friend who drives a BMW 325 said "dude, your car cost 5 times less than mine, yet looks 5 times better than mine!" - I said, "haha yup, you got ripped my friend!" My co-worker said, "finally, a car that fits your aggressive personality." I let my 20 year old brother drive it, he said, "It shifts so smoothly! It still takes off at 2000rpm! WTF? I need a new car!" I'm definetly going to do the gt-4 styling when i turbo it. And that supra wing does look nice. |
