A guy in an Evo meets me at a stoplight.
Evo: "Hey, nice car!"
Me: "Thanks, you too."
Evo: "Uh, is it fast?"
Me: "No."
Evo: "Ah, that's cool. F'in hot car tho."
Then half the way home he continued to pace me and check the car out.

So I'm on my way to a party on a Saturday night...Unfortunately, this involved going down the Loop where all the ricers just cruise. I almost manage to make it past the Looptards, but I hit the very last red light on the strip. I just happen to be next to some 40 yr old guy in a rusted up 3g accord with a fart can and way too many gauges.
3G: Dude...is that an Evo 7?!?!?!?!?!?
Me: Uhhh...No.
3G: What is it?
Me: It's a Lancer.
3G: But it's not an Evo?
Me: No. It's slow. You want to race?
3G: No...I bet that thing's fast.
The light turns green and he floors it and takes off.

Cause I notice so many more people just rolling up next to me checking out the car and then they floor it and think that they're doing something amazing.
Like I actually went down to my mitsu dealership and was looking around and a little old lady who obiously wasn't selling cars that long came up to me and was like
Little old Lady: My aren't you a little young to have a evo
Me: Uh no it's ...
Little old lady: You know what come to think of it thats a wierd looking one.
Me: Uh... well thats because it's a lancer
Little old lady: Oh.. well would you like an evo?

Guys at Jiffylube looked really worried all huddled around my engine bay. I go out to see what's up.
Guy, "where's the turbo?"
Other guy, "maybe he took it off?"
me, "Maybe it's not an Evo..."
Another time I took my car to a mechanic and they didn't know how to get my car into reverse. I hopped in my car and reversed put it in first and drove to another mechanic.

Getting called Ev-Slow everyday at school. It's okay, they all drive pick up trucks and ricey ricey Hondas.
That and having some 50+ year old dude pull up next to me while I was waiting in a parking lot. Tells me I have a nice car and says he would like to meet me at a track one day. I tell him I have a 100 horsepower Lancer, NOT an Evolution. He calls me a young punk that doesn't deserve the car that mommy and daddy bought me. I told him that he made a bad choice on picking the STi during his midlife crisis. He takes off, I laugh as the girlfriend walks up and says "Wow, everyones getting a Subie nowadays."

When I started at my current job I was big into the suby scene and had a 95' impreza turbo. At break one day (keep in mind I was coincidentally wearing a COBB meet shirt) we all went outside and I was showin some of the guys my turbo set-up and one of them walks over to us and tells me how his friend is the one who drives the COBB Lancer! 
I was like, Dang! I didn't even know COBB tuned Lancer's?! (this was about 4 years ago when COBB was suby only still).
Stupid Redneck Hick!!

i think i take the cake... so i was at the dealership servicing my lancer and i was bored so i walked around the dealership and this sales person comes to me and talks to me...
dealer: so what are you getting done to your car?
me: oh just regular maintenance....
Dealer: oh what year?
Me: 2008
dealer: well should've just waited for the 2009 model..
when he said that i knew he was stupid...
me: oh well im waiting for the new evo..
dealer: oh well do you know how much its going to be?
me: yeah around 40 Gs
dealer: shakes his head "naw bro your going to be shocked"
me: oh really? how much is it going to be?
dealer: around "110" "its going to have over 420hp
now when he said 110... i knew he was talking about $110,000......
me: sarcastically "oh wow"... i was like your stupid... and then i walked away from him...
seriously..where does he come up with the figure of $110,000...if it cost that much no one would buy the new evos....

I was at a stop light when a guy in his 95 mustang pulls up to me and says "is that a subaru cause it looks badass"
Thinking to myself (what the a subaru) either this guy is playing or is clueless.
So I tell him its an evo.
he says what's that
I reply mitsubishi
he says oh really is it fast
Light turns green I drive off
the end.
(I dont know about you guys but people think my car is a subaru all the time.)

I was at my house when I here a guy yelling good morning from the sidewalk. (He was from a rehabilitation program here in PR that in order for them to stay there they go on trips selling cakes door to door). Anyways by the time I get to the window to see who it was he was walking away. So here comes his fellow seller friend and tells him hey man thats the new turbo lancer. At the same time both bend over and start looking at the front grill. He says you see that big intercooler, that must be fast. (Obviosly what they saw was the radiator). So to me it was funny as hell. I was at the window laughing my *** of at my Super Fast Turbo GTS. I wish.
P.S. They spoke in spanish, I translate for them. hehe
