Alan999 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Has anyone else had any unexpected reactions when people have seen your car? Yesterday on the way into work i stopped at some lights and there was an old bloke prob in his 70's who waved his walking stick at me, gave me the thumbs up, shouted nice car and then nearly fell over he got that excited.

Bob Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I picked up a mate from the pub and his welder mates came out and all started probing and admiring my Carbing strut brace - giving it a good shake then saying how amazing the welds were!

Suprasteve Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 when i walked back to my car when parked in a public car park, i noticed 2 old dears probably in their 60s possibly even 70s pointing and discussing my body kit (i only have the standard toyota one) and i swear i heard one of them say "lovely skirts". I would have chatted to them and invited them to a "meet" but i was so gob smacked i couldn't speak so just drove off....it was hilerious.

Gazboy Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I've had all sorts. I was on the M25 last summer when a minibus full of sixth formers started hanging out of the windows taking pics and vids with their phones. I've been spat at. I've had loads of oap's telling me it's awesome. I had a geordie say "I fookin hate Porsches!" while pointing at my car. I've had ladies comment that it looked really nice. My Gran loves it.

Ewen Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Not many personally, but the one that most suprised me was when my boss saw my current Supra for the first time. He said that somehow he imagined I'd buy a GT rather than an open two seater. He went on to tell me it was a shame the UK Supra market dried up and that he'd always thought the Supra was one of the best looking front engined rear wheel drive cars of all time. Coming from a 67 year old who'd had his fair share of Ferraris (Daytona was my favorite, but that went to the vat man I think), Cobras, classic Jags and Astons, I thought that was cool.

Rob Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I've had two people give me the little winkie finger sign, and a nurse in a car gave me a wanker sign, just for driving past her as she waited to pull out of a side road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdavies Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Pulling up outside my folks place in Cardiff to a gang of about 8 young teenage girls squealing.. "Can I pimp your ride mister?" ... Jeeees. Also, it is quite scary the amount of "older" folks love the shape of the Supe. Amusingly, the disapproving Mum - "oh you arent buying that 'sports car' you were looking at are you? - I don't think it is right, not you at all...."... turned up with it... "Oh my, that is a beautiful looking car! I like that".. Well jees mum you were used to seeing me driving a frickin Fiesta before! Oh... the other half when she saw it... Took one look and said "Slut!" (referring to the car of course ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
