I started a new job a few days ago, and was telling a friend there about spending $400 on a tune and some work, and he replied "Does it really make you happy to have a car thats faster than everyone elses?". I just grinned and said "Oh Yeah."

He drives a prius...


Also my sister in law said that she "Can tell that someone put a lot of tuner parts on it because they put a wing on it." At that time my car was completely stock...

This is excellent. It is funny to me how many people have no clue what kind of car it is... Mine is debadged completely except for the trunk.

I was at the drag strip at homestead speedway for the TNT friday night's drag, after I had pulled back in the pit stops two guys approach me and say is this turbo'ed, that was quick. In my mind I'm like are they serious.

all in all, at the end.. i fixed his shower tap, collected some money and drove away with some Gusto.. Some people just don't get cars.
lol glad Im not the only one who would rather take the evo to the job site

Had this happen to me a few years back also at a TNT event. After pulling back around a guy approached me and said that thing sounds pretty good I can tell it has a turbo on it. I say yeah and he says it's a shame it's front wheel drive or you could probably pull the front wheels off the ground. I merely chuckled.

A common question I get is "Hey man is that a V8?"
