how often do people ask you about your car? Options

[Celicav]

I typically have people that are just not positive that it is a Celica, or can't believe that it is a 1995 model year...I mean the styling is timeless. May get more Supra inquiries now that I have the GT-Four Blocks on.

[Fate]

I get asked, "whens it going to be done" & "is it painted yet" & "when are you going to paint it" all the time.

^^same here. no joke.

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

Most common thing I hear about my car is when I tell them it's a 1994 model. People always go, "are you serious?? that looks way newer."

I get scattered comments here and there about my car though, alot of the time its if I get out of my car somewhere busy or I stop at a gas station or something, somebody will ask me about it and say something about how low it is and how it looks really quick.

Generally people leave it alone because its not nearly aggressive or modified enough to really draw alot of attention. Sometimes I think thats a good thing around where I live though.

I usually get the stare.. followed by the "what is it?" question.

[Shigexile]

you guys are lucky. i get no attention at all. most of my friends don't even like the car...
they just say, "yeah its a nice car" just to make me feel better while they're driving there 300zx, rx7, civic sir, prelude, jdm front end integra, and all those nice cars..
sigh....
what shall i do....

[hitcachi]

I get alot of, "Damn what year supra is that?" I love shaved emblems as well.

[celicaST]

i get compliments on my car alot and its pretty much stock. so many stories, but just the other day, i took a girl out in it for the first time. she said it was nice, i asked her if she knew what it was, and she said a supra. true story, i couldnt help but laugh . everytime someone sees me walking to my car, they are always like "you drive that?, how do you afford it?". i cant think of any other car in its class that would get the reaction the 6g gets. thats why i love it.

The funniest one I can think of is when I used to hang with the MKIII Supra club here in Houston we would have our meets at the local Hooter's. One night the girls asked if we were a car club then asked if we would point out our cars. Mine being the only Celica in a line of Supras of course stood out like a sore thumb. Then the girls asked if they could each have a quick ride in the cars during their breaks. The girl that picked my car was really nice and very cute and I of course quickly agreed to give her a ride.
She gets in and is careful not to hurt the car and about block down the road says "So this is a Porsche right?"
Instantly I look down at the Toyota symbol on my steering wheel and the devil on my shoulder says "Yes - just go with it - girls like expensive cars {insert evil laugh}"
Luckily the angel on the other shoulder won out and I told her it was a Toyota Celica.

LOL - I should have listened to the devil.

[Clipsetuner]

"Thats a werid looking supra"

"Want to sell your car, my Girlfriend wants one" I get that lot.....

[tufy]

people ask about my day almost 2-3 times every day. mostly asked question is. '' what is the topspeed of your car''. and the answer is ''i dont know i cannot read after 180 kmph''
one day i ll have chance to test it

[massbrandon]

I get about 2-3 per week. Mostly from older people up here in NE. Although the most people that I get questions from are the ones that are driving the Audis, BMWs, and Mercedes. Thats always funny when they ask what year my Supra is.

[Consynx]

my car has been referred to as a 240 twice now already, lol

[Digndoug]

I get asked, "whens it going to be done" & "is it painted yet" & "when are you going to paint it" all the time.

I get that all the time..

I also always get nice supra.. or what year supra is that.

Other than that i always will get a few stars on the highway and a lot of thumbs up from other modded car drivers.

[BlackCelicaGT94]

The courier came into my office today and he said

"you sure got the nicest looking celica around"

i was blushing and saying thanks then he asked if my taillights were stock and I said well kinda. Stock on the GT4 but not here and he said "yeah i thought they werent the ones over here cuz they look different but not cheap like aftermarket ones"

awww...the compliments just keep on coming. I swear I dont go a day without someone talking about my car to me! :-D I have a friend who drools over my wheels everytime I see him.

Now with this compliment im debating on doing a car show tomorrow! hmmmm....

All the young kids shout at my car when i'm about , i'm talking like 7-13 year olds i've had everything you can think of ! one young lad keeps yelling " cool engine " i think he likes my louder-then-life exhaust !

Couple of compliment at petrol stations ,nothing to good ! but the Scots aint quite as forward as most and prefer just to look .

You wouldnt believe how often my mr2 gets confused for a 240, and someone had the nerve to tell me "Well its ok, fwd cars can make power to" No clue where he got his information from haha. Well, I guess its off to install a gt35r, cant slack the entire day away.
