I have the car to enjoy I guess others like looking as much at it as I do :( I dont enjoy the being stared at though. The worse thing is I know there is nothing I can do about it if I want to drive and enjoy the car. :(

 

Ok the truth of the tail is I never get to pick my nose or scratch my bum while driving! :D

 

 

Once you will get rid of FTO and buy Supra, you will see smiling people, waving people, people shouting "Nice Supra mate" - not bloody Ferrari! Kids knows, how Supra looks you know! They look in horror, expecting dude from english lads or w/e this site was called :p :sly:

Ha, ha, I know what you guys were on about.....

 

The other day I came steaming up behind a 525 D, could see his head dropping slightly as he kept looking back in the rear view mirror, then the passenger pulls down their sun visor to look in the mirror....

 

I know he noticed the car, I was just sat that thinking, dont even try it pal, just move over and let me past..... :D

 

Also had a local shop owner who I know used to have a yellow TT with Lexus wheels come and talk to me the other day in the petrol station, I have noticed recently he hasnt got the Supra anymore but replaced it with a 350z, so we got chatting and I asked him how he rated the 350z over the Supra, he said if it wasnt for the fact it was new, he would have binned it long ago........nothing can replace a Supra on boost..... ;)

I can't see the problem - if you don't like the attention, sell it and buy a Ford! Or if you just want the performance without the stares buy a Scooby! Part of the reason for buying a Supe is for years seeing them driving past and thinking "shit, thats gorgeous - wish I had one of those" and now you are! So lap it up and stop whinging like pop stars who want the fame and fortune but get miffed when they can't pop into Tescos anymore!:D

I know what you mean though, at the moment it's quite amusing but I expect it will wear off. I think I get an easy deal because of being a girl.

 

Kids are the worst hanging out of the windows giving it the thumbs up.

 

I am pretty sure they are thinking "She's lucky her boyfriend lets her drive his car"

Without fail people turn to Jon and say "nice car mate" or "you had all this done yourself?" etc etc

Dont think colour has a lot to do with it, unless your orange, or a bright blue or something, mine is grey, but with a Bomex front end, and spankingly clean and shiny Racing Hart wheels, she does stand out on the road......Well I hope she does anyway.........I love the anttention, and yes Im a whore :D

I get a bit embarrased when I mess up parking as I imagine people must be thinking, look at that woman trying to park her boyfriends car! :( I do feel proud of my car when I see people looking at it tho, Supras are so beautiful :)

Dont get me wrong sometimes I go out in it for the looks :innocent: dont we all

 

But its the fact someone is always looking, I hate filling it up as the whole forecourt is staring as I get out the car and then stares at me as I fill up (im a young looking 24).

 

 

 

Sounds like you're getting fed up of it? I think it's time you sold it to meeeee! ;) :D :D :D
