I get the usual, stares, wtf blank stares, wrong side comments, and ofcourse the dreaded is it form england?

Couple of notable ones:
1) I parked it at a TD bank parking lot with windows down, went inside and got in line. Looked at my car and saw two middle aged women talking to each other and looking in my car making steering wheel gestures and a swapping motion. Had to hold back the laughter.

2) Was at Steve's (G.T.R's) house working on the car. Elderly man and his wife, maybe in his 70s comes by.
Man: *In eastern european accent* This not Nissan!
Me and steve: Excuse me?
Man: This not Nissan! I KNOW nissan!
Us: is that so?
Man: Where it from??
Us: Japan
Him: Oh...Japan...yes ok it Nissan
Us: LOL!

3) Stopped at a light. Asian Man in his 30s, just GAWKING with his jaw dropped in his accord next to me. Just could not comprehend RHD.

4) Cop story. Was coming to a stop from coming off the highway at a light. Cops setup a speed trap at the light, I wasnt speeding.
1st dude cop: Double take at my car
Me thinking:....oh **** I wasnt speeding...was I??!!?
Cop: YEA DUDEE!!! NICEEEEEEEEEEE!!
ME: LOLOLOL
2nd LADY cop: OH WOWWW NICEEEEEE!!

5) Douche cop story.
Me and a friend were going home after a movie. We were at a light just talking, light turns green we both start to leave, not racing or speeding or anything illegal. Cop going the other way, hears my blowoff, turns around. We both see it and pull into a parking lot and just sit there. He goes around and parks his car infront of my car to block me. My friend leaves, Iam of course stuck, cop proceeds to be a douche and asks for papers, and other bs, I comply. Asked me if I did the work my self? Iam like wtf? what work? Hes like the car isnt stock obv. Mods on my car are exhaust, wheels, suspension and HIDS. I tell no it came like that when i bought it, which it did. Proceeds to asks me all other nonsensical questions. I ask for his badge and name, he gives it to me and says drive safe. Iam like F U in my head.

[GTS-James]

lots of idiotic things like everyone else, but when i took my car down to augusta maine, i had a car full of kids on the highway (maybe 17 yrs old) telling me to do a burnout (at highway speed) and taking pics of my car... i was like... wtf?

[Supraclean]

I don't really have any epic stories that don't follow everyone else's already. I love going threw the drive threw bank/fast food places, gets me everytime.

[MarusGTR]

I stopped at a 4way right at the same time than an old lady and her husband. They had the right of way but she let me go first.

Next light she rolls next to my right, I smile at her, she smiles back and she says: "I was wondering who was driving the car! I've got a grandaughter with a car set up like yours... *light turns green* ...a Pajero! (referring to the RHD)

I smile and nod back while we go our separate ways.

Also, douchebag RSX quido glasses mother****er with MAJOR rod knock or valve float, basically wathever could make me hear metal to metal hammering from behind my exhaust, overtakes me while I was cruising slow and floors it to at least 200 in a residential area. What bothers me is that he'll tell everyone of those damn chin-up popcollar retards of his flock that he just beat a Skyline.

That thought makes me sad and my skin crawl at the same time. Obviously I'm the only Skyline couple hundred kms around, so I don't want people to start thinking the car sucks y'know? It's my baby

Edit: Also, this is pretty much how I feel about some people around here:

Had another one at lunch time. I nearly pissed my self laughing.
Backstory: I recently installed a welded split (The pipe that says Twin Turbo) on it in my car. It made a HUGE difference to the sound of my BOV.

So I come to a 4 way stop and notice a couple crossing the street a little but further down then the intersection. The gentleman was done crossing and the lady was just about to step onto the side walk. So i start going, shift at about 4k into 2nd, and then again at 4k into 3rd. I notice the lady freak out as shes getting onto the sidewalk and then run towards her husband with her arms flailing all over the place. The BOVs must have scared the crap out of her or something but I couldnt stop laughing when I saw.

I'll start with the oldest.

I just bought my car and I was driving to a family members house. I was still getting used to driving on the highways in Sask and I must have been hugging the outside line because two weeks laater I recieved a letter. The letter was from a police station in some tiny town stating that I had been reported trying to pass on the right side and that this was my only warning.

About a year later I was taking my sister for a drive and it was a fairly dead night. I stop at a red light and a guy with four friends pulled up in a jacked up Deisel Cummings. I recieved the usual stare down and finger pointing. What I didn't expect was that this guy had his exhaust at the same height as my window. Unfortunately I had it rolled down (considering it was a great night) and when he started brake tourqing I got a car full of black deisel exhaust. The best part of all this was that he started to burn out and ran halfway through the intersection. (It was raining 10 mins before that)

Everyone gets the Europe bit and "is it illegal" questions. But on one occasion I had a civic full of teenagers start yelling at me. I just ignored, however I did catch one kid saying "man, if you put a chip in that thing it can put out like a 1000 hp"

Since then I have tinted my windows and roll them up at every light.

This one actually made my day...


Coming home from work and getting off at the GO Station, I find a little piece of paper stuck by my windshield wiper. I'm like "Oh no, some ignorant fool trying to vandalize my car again" (last time I parked at the GO, my windshield had spit all over it). As I got closer, I see the word "Skyline" written on the paper. I flip over the paper and guess what, it was a note.

Here's what it said:

"To the owner of this R32, I just gotta say "wow, sexy ride". I didn't think i'd see one here in Canada. Brings back memories from back home, in Shinjuku. Take Good Care of Her.

Respect"

:-)

That's bad ass.

... oh.... but I'm old enough to be their father......

[bellis_GTR]

When I first got my car, I was driving on the highway in the middle lane and had the windows down since ac didnt work and it was at least 30 outside, And this blue truck come up my left side with a truck full of people and as they saw no driver or dash on the left side they were all looking hard at the car. One girl even stuck her whole head out of the window to look at the car.

I also get the "is it legal?" I dont understand why people ask that when they see the car has plates and is in this country. I know people arnt use to seeing that but still.

One from my friends Rx7

We coming back from having lunch, and this truck pull up beside my friends car on his side and notices that its RHD. He then nudges his kid beside him to look ( I could see the man in the rear view) then he ask's "Hey buddy what kind of car is that?" Friends says "Mazda RX7" then the guy is like "ohh ok nice car man" I wish Someone asked me that in my car

I was driving back home from a trip to the bank when I ran into a older 5.0 mustang. The traffic was heavy enough to keep us side by side, now I'm no street racer nor am I a heavy speeder, I got a nasty ticket and have been very careful ever since, its not worth loosing my baby <3, but I could sense a little mutual respect ( yeah I like v8's, who doesn't like v8's deep down?).

So anyways, the traffic eventually led us to a set of lights. We were side by side about 4 cars from the stop line, so when the lights turned green we both slowly accelerated to leave a bit of fun space between us and the cars ahead. I was in first gear at about 3500 rpm, prime time for the sweet sound of turbo spooling
so I went WOT, and as I did I heard someone scream "YYYEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!" from the pick-up behind me. He must have been watching us the whole time with the anticipation of a little show, I hope he got what he wanted haha.
