3rd day ownership... (almost 3years ago)
little boy with mother: see that badass car!!! Is that Toyota? me: just smiling and giving a nod  about 2 years ago (in front of school) chick-classmate: Could you give me a lift home? me (happy hear that): Sure... chick-classmate (seeing my car): With that?! Looks dangerous... I hate speeding and fast cars.  me: yesterday  my colleague's comment of my PC wallpaper: wow, that's you dream car? my answer: no, that is what I have in my garage

Too many to list. LoL. Just kidding. I just don't remember them all. Here goes.
Location: CITCO Lube Express Comment: Technician - (Technician glances at my car eyes wide open.) Is that a Supra? Me - Nope Technician - Damn. Looks really nice, just like a Supra! Is it a Toyota? Me - Yep. A 6th Generation Celica. Location: My work parking lot. (After work.) Comment: Friend of co-worker (keep in mind he owns a supercharged Cobalt SS) - (Glances at my car all around) Damn... I like this. You plan on selling it? Me - Hell no. That's my dream car. Gonna convert this baby to a JDM GT-FOUR. Friend of co-worker - What's that? Me - Go look it up and you'll fall in love. (Smirk on my face.) Friend of co-worker - (LoL) Alright. If you plan on selling it, you know who is interested. Location: Forgot the location. Comment: Jason (JokerKid) - You plan on turbo-charging your celica man? Me - I was thinking about it but I heard it kills your car. And I plan on 3S swap'n it anways. That money might as well go towards the swap. Jason (JokerKid) - (Nods)... It sure sounds turbo charged. Location: My work parking lot. (After work.) Comment: Dang (ex co-worker) - Damn... that's a nice car. Me - I know, I love it. Dang - (Opens up the door and looks around the interior.) Toyota sure does uses good material. The inside looks almost similar to the MKIV Supras. Me - Yeah, in a way. Dang - Man, I want one of these now (Keep in mind he has a fast ass F22 Turbo Accord). What are the JDMs like? Me - GT-FOUR? AWD 2.0L 260HP Turbo'd. If you want, I'll email you some pix and vidz. Dang - That's cool. Yeah, I'll appreciate that. Location: My work parking lot. (After work.) Comment: Dang - You mind if I take your car for a quick ride? Me - Sure. Just be careful man. I don't usually trust people but since you know how to drive, it's ok. Dang - Don't worry bro. I gotcha. (Gets in car, and hauls ass around.) Dang - (Comes back.) Dang, I love you exhaust sound. It sounds turbo charged but without the blow off valve. It's quicker than a Accord F22 suped up too. Me - Yeah, I get that from people sometimes. I might as well throw in a blow off valve to make it sound turbo. (LoL) That way, it'll match the exhaust. Dang - (LoL) That'll be hilarious. People will think you actually have a turbo. Location: My Gym Comment: Tang - (Opens up the my door to look inside the car.) Do-mah! (He is viet.) Racing seats! Oh my god! Me - They are stock seats man. (LoL) Tang - But still, look nice! Location: My work place. Comment: All Co-workers - Nice rims Adam! Very nice! Location: Street Race Meet (Unknown) Comment: Random Guys: (Some random guys come up to me after I finished a race.) Hey man, wanna trade rims with me? Me - No. I like these. But what kind of rims you got? Random Guys: Same ones but white. Me - Nah, I'll stick with Polished Aluminum. Random Guys: Damn... oh alright. Real nice rims by the way. (Leaves) Me - (Smiles) Some more but I gotta remember. Alot more.

"It "sounds" turbocharged?" It sounds turbo charged meaning that the exhaust sound output sounds like a turbo charged exhaust. You would have to hear it in real life to understand what I am talkin about. LoL. Seriously. "Dude what did you do to your car to make a turbo honda feel jelous, a 5s even with bolt-ons prob wouldnt even be in the same league with a turbo accord." LoL. You got it ALL WRONG. He wasn't jealous. He was "AW'd" by the car. I guess he grew interested in it. In the enthusiast world I come from, it's not about who is the fastest and who is in what class or league. It's about props and respect for what customization is done to ones car. He was giving me props on my car. And oh yeah, he was comparing to a all motor F22. Im very curious, why do you street race your celica? Cool props that these people go crazy, but you know some ricer ass people lol. "Putting a fake Bov" "It sounds turbo". Nonetheless, if the car makes you happy enjoy it, I just am curious about people who think their car is fast and putting parts that "look" fast on a car instead of actually making it fast. Ok, I only said that just to make a laugh out of it becuz people keep saying my car sounds turbo'd. Just needs a Kuh! sound at the end of the exhaust sound. I didn't mean I really WAS going to do that. It'll be pointless and a waste of money. Does it look like I have a huge spoiler on my car? Or even carbon fiber everything? I don't think my car is fast. I only have exhaust and intake just becuz I expected better from stock (which was lame IMO). To be honest I don't street race anymore. I just stand by and watch. And even if I was to, no one would want to becuz the way my car looks. Sad but true. But my car is getting old (185k miles) and I'd rather not risk anymore money into replacement oem parts. I'm actually saving up for a BEAMs swap as of right now. Oh yeah, funny you mentioned that becuz a year back I went into a Dodge dealership to look into a 2000 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS that the dealership claimed to be turbo charged. I loved it. Black on black. When I popped the hood to look inside, no intercooler, no turbo. I saw a blow off valve but it was welded onto a short ram intake. I asked the dealer, "Wait a minute. I thought you said this is turbo'd? I don't see any intercoolers nor the turbo charger?" The guy responded, "The turbo is this tube right here." And pointed at the short ram intake with a blow off valve. I said to myself, "You got to be joking right?" And then I said, "This car isn't turbo'd. Do you guys even know what turbo is? Just becuz you guys throw on a blow off valve to make it sound turbo doesn't mean it's turbo'd." The dealer guy looked stunned. And then I said, "You guys think you can get away with that? You are charging people $5000 ($12000) more than the supposed dealer price for a 2.5RS with 110,000 mileage." The dealer guy just stood there looking AND feeling stupid.

the two that stick out in my mind are-
1.) When my parents were looking for a house on the St. Croix, the real estate lady who my parents were dealing with happened to be at the same gas station as I was a couple summers ago. She had no idea who i was, but to give you an idea of what kind of lady she is, she wears more rocks on her neck than what a crack pipe has in it on payday... needless to say, she was walking into the station and took a glance at my car, looked at me, and said "sexy car, makes me want to be young again", smiled at me, and walked inside... 2.) A very sexy young lady my age one summer helped me the first summer I had my car at a dairy queen drive thru. When I pulled up to the window, she asked me a few questions. "Wow, your car is shiny, where do you take it to be washed?" After telling her I do it myself, she said "well, I really like how clean you keep your car. It's so sexy", and she stared into my eyes. I obvioulsly wasn't interested in her as much as my cone so i politley said "thanks", and she then took the hint after confiding in a couple co-workers who graduated with me... She still made it a point to tell me that "i should keep my car clean, because it looks very sexy"

That's the 'Combat' front bumper by Andy's Autosport: http://www.6gc.net/index.php?action=parts&itu=22 It follows the contours and styling of the celica very nicely; most definetley my favourite front bumper for the st202, without a doubt.

Had a guy last night follow me from the gas station to the car wash. He asked me what kind of car it was and then said I did a good job making it look nice. I said thanks and he said and it sounds good too. I cant believe the guy followed me 2 miles to the car wash just to tell me lol.

Lol. I remember cruising along on Rt.3 in MD and this little VW Golf or something creeped up and next thing I know we're doing 120 down the highway (I wasn't racing mind you). He was racing some other car and I was just there. Anyways, since whatever car he was racing raped him he was egging me on when we pulled up to the light to get off the highway. He was like "what do you have in that thing!?" And I said "an intake..." he responded with "And...?" I guess he was dissapointed. The expression on his face was priceless! A "nice car" and a "thanks" followed.
