I pick up my 6 yr. old son from school everyday around 2pm. Its funny to watch the kids walk by and stare or tell there friends "Wow, look at that cool car!"

Several weeks ago when I was picking up my son from Day Care there was several kids playing in the street. So when I come out of the school, one kid about 10 yrs. starts asking me if I know that my car does 0-60 in 4.8 sec's and 13.1 in a 1/4 mile. He said he always knows when I come to pickup my son because when I make a u-turn in front of his house that my exhaust makes their windows shake. I htought that was funny...

Where I park my car at the school I teach at is right by the sidewalk where the kids that walk home go by. The first day I brought it a kindergartner came up to me the next day and asked me if that was my "scary grey car with horns"(I have the MR).
The second time I brought it a 2nd grader wrote me a ticket for "Driving too fast of a car" on a slip that the kids get if they misbehave when they walk home. I get that kind of stuff all the time. Its pretty halarious how funny some kids are.

I'm buying my evo for the soul purpose of impressing little kids, because as the saying goes "If they're good enough for R Kelly, they're good enough for me".

It sounds like video games may be saving the America from NASCAR with all these kids learning about actuall car racing. Most people that enjoy NASCAR so much probably have never had a washer or dryer and that's why the spining motion is so exciting for them!!! It's like a view into the future.

i made more than a handful of kids jump from just starting my Formula(st8 pipe, SLP loudmouth), and that car got called the Batmobile by my friends nephews.
the best evo comment i got so far was when i went into a gas station to get smokes and 2 13-15 year old boys both stopped dead in their tracks and yelled out loud, "who's evo is that?!? that's awesome!"
another good one i got was from my cousins' daughter, the previous owner put a BOV on it so she said my car "whistled and sneezed"

Agreed, I have countless stories about my kid and there friends comments about my EVO, from my 7 year old son calling out corners for me in the canyons Rally co-driver style or my 3 year old daughter quit seriously correcting other kids and adults about what type of car it is and how fast it is. God bless em'!

I always see little kids with their dads or moms and they always look at my car and say "look at that car, is it a racing car"
I love it!!
