Hey all
I've had my car all of two weeks and already am getting a kick out of the comments and attention it gets. Figured I'd start a thread and see what kind of comments the rest of you are getting. My two favorite so far:
Two guys at work looking under the hood of guy one's clapped out subbie. Walk up and start chatting - they look at my car - guy two says to guy one "hey I think his rotors are bigger than your wheels!" It was good natured but guy one still got down towards ground level and eyed both cars just to make sure it wasn't accurate. Got a good laugh there.
Second one that I know is common - wife's friend is over visiting, says" it's a charger right?" " well not quite, it's a challenger.... " "well still a dodge so same thing" "well my dart is a dodge too, is it also basically the same thing?" "well no but blah blah blah". I've heard some people get pretty riled up when non-car people mix up the two, doesn't bother me, free entertainment since I am quarantined in the house with everything closed.
Anyways, that's all I got so far. Nobody has tried to race me yet so that's disappointing. Isn't that the whole point of this car? Sheesh. (yes I'm being facetious).
Anyone else got any good stories?
