Nathanj1142 Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Don’t know about any of you, but that video of the yank saying ‘is that a supra’ has suddenly riddled everyone. Drive my car Around town and that’s all I hear!! Has anyone else experienced it yet? Funny at first but bit old now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 (edited) I honestly dont mind it, just people having their moment of fun. A lot of the time I try and have some fun back with it and make a comment on whatever they're driving in a humourous or humourless way, depending on whether they're being a laugh, or being a knob haha My favourite so far was coming out of Morrisons to find a group of young lads around it, 1 of them said the line as I unlocked it and they realised I was the owner. 1 of them was propped up against his Civic sat 2 spots down and says "christ it's only a car" too which I replied "Is that a laaaawwwnmower". Took it pretty well to be fair while most of his mates were pissing themselves at his expense. Actually spoken to a few of them since and they seem harmless enough Edited July 2, 2020 by Crossy (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drift_bear Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Absolute hate this video/saying :banghead: whenever someone says that to me I just say no it’s a Hyundai coupe with a body kit and then just walk away or get in the car and drive away. I just don’t bother taking them on now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sukhy Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I didn't mind it when the video initially came out and don't really mind it now but its had its time. I just smile when people say it and just keep moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_harmer32 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I have no problem talking to people who are genuinely interested in the car. I'll often pop the bonnet; even let them sit in it if i'm not in a hurry. But, that drives me nuts! First few times was OK, but after several 100 it gets very old very quickly lol Used to get the same thing when i had the F&F replica with 'What's the retail on one of those?' or 'Overnight parts from Japan?' But i guess we have to accept these things when we drive such an iconic car! I much prefer it when children refer to it as a race car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobgoblin Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I was at work one day, (a tyre shop), and this guy drives in with a purple Supra. I asked him if it was a TT. His response was "No, it`s a Toyota." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathanj1142 Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 Lol better than someone saying nice Subaru mate or shame its an auto but really who cares, far more important things to get upset about I like to keep on the DL that mines NA. People usually lose interest at that point cause it’s not 1000bhp. It’s been called a Subaru a few times too lol - - - Updated - - - Here you go Cheers Ben. Just what I wanted to hear!!

KamaSupra Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I don’t ever get people saying “Is that a Supra?!”, I always get and have done for 13 years- “Is it NA or TT?” followed by “Is it manual?” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
