Getting any comments on your car out there ;)?, Does people passing by / strangers admire your ride? Options

[johnnehh]

-i'm always getting a thumbs up
-one old lady asked me... no told me i must have a great job to be able to afford such a car (thought it was a latest model)
- some one said nice supra
-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.

yup that happens to me quite often as well..... minus the 6 people in a G lol

people dont see celicas often so they dont know what to think of them i guess......... they just stare and wonder.....

[ElementGT4]

ehhh ive gotten "is that a supra?" about 3 times twice on my gold celi and once on my recent one

[lilgreenyoda]

Hahahaha. I remember once I had my windows open. There was a house on the corner with a group of 7-8 boys around 9 years old. As I took off from the stop sign I heard like 3 of 'em go "WWWHHHHOOOOOOAAAAAAA!!! SWEEEEETTT!" Lol

[Promasta]

[Heindrik]

"Mean your Teg!" ------ "......its not a teg Noob"

"Supraa???" ----- "if you think so"

"Nice rice mobile" ----- after we do a run, make cry baby hand gesture and say "Anything else to say??"

[Slash]

Just after washing mine an 8 year old asked if it was a Lamborghini, and my Celica is currently as stock as they come bar tinted windows haha

[Hope604]

My story happens alot to me...Maybe to you guys too....

One day, seen one of my never hangout friend...he was like...Wow you drive a integra now? you upgraded....(because i drove a civic back then) And I am like, no Its a Celica. And they are like no...I am sure its a integra...afterall...I will just ask them to look at the steering wheels.... One surprise answer was....Toyota steering wheel fit on integra?

[OOBE]

I wouldn't even talk to people with that much level of stupidity.

[Hope604]

Old friend...Cant just say no..I dont want to talk to you...Hah

[OOBE]

It's funny that I always get compliments from people of all ages. "Is that a latest model?" "Is that a Supra?" "Is it twin turbo?". I ask my friends with expensive cars if they ever get compliments and mad props and they tell me they never get any and that they don't even turn heads. Isn't that weird? I've driven by people behind let's say an M3 or ZO6, and they totally ignore them and stare at my car. I look in the rearview mirror and they're still staring. Sheesh, that was when it was black. I bet now with all the carbon goodies and the blue paint job, people won't leave me alone.

We have an old, cheap car, yet people don't know it and they think it's expensive and fast. I'm cool with that.

[blu94gt]

When we bought our house last year the Celica got neglected since I spent all my time working on the house. When I finally got a chance to wash and wax it my neighbor came out and asked if I got it painted. He was like "wow I didn't think the paint looked that good, I thought it was just faded and dingy"

Otherwise the most comments I get are just that it looks good for a car that's over 10 years old, or that it looks faster than it is.

[str8thugginit4ya]

I've gotten the occasional "Nice Supra" & "Nice ride man!" This older lady stopped me just to tell me that she likes my wheels. That's about it.

If I didn't "know" you, I'd call complete bullspit on that. I've never had that experience.

People in FL don't seem to care..maybe they're spoiled by the rich snowbirds with Ferraris (at least in the south part)?

[black13]

yea I've had the "nice supra" compliments a couple times.

Worst one was "is that a Tiburon?" wanted to slap him in the face for even mentioning that POS car.

[zfjohnson07]

the first day i drove mine to a gas station someone was admiring it, asking about it and what not. now that i got my cf hood everyone who drives by stares it down, they pull next to me and kinda have a grin on their face. not to mention all the eclipses and acura integra's who notice my car now..

[Dyran]

All the time, Celica's are pretty common over here but not the GT-Fours, so it turns a lot of heads when I drive by, I suppose the bright red paint job helps too lol. Get quite a few comments, pretty much always positive.
