Reactions from people seeing your car?

[GTR-Dad]

P.S.: To Honda haters: I own a Civic, I drive agressively (I admit), but I never did any kind of street racing. I'm just an import enthusiast who likes pretty much all cars from Japan and I enjoy modifying hem. Just wanted to clarify before a fight starts on this board.

Cheers!

Cool story!

Shouldn't be too many haters here. Pretty mellow bunch! Enjoy the Civic and make sure you stop and talk to anyone you see in a Skyline. There are several members here who hail from Fort Mac.

yesterday I went to the gaz station and a dude asked me what car it was ....I told him a nissan skyline (without wanting to tell him since the rest would be a stupid conversation) then obviously he started to be amazed and told me: ``so you can tune your computer in that....thats awsome...`` i told him that you can tune any car with a computer and its not because you see that in fast and the furious that you automatically get 1000HP.....also I only have a gtst......I had pity on him....poor little guy knowing fawk all about those skylines

Some guy asked me if my Gts-t was an Acura the other day! I laughed and told him nicely though. Another guy asked me if it was a prelude with skyline taillights a couple days earlier as well, that time I laughed and made fun of hondas though, then looked over and saw that he was driving a civic. felt like a bit of an ass. I guess Hondas/Acuras(same thing) are just some of the nicest cars out there! Why the hell did I buy a NIssan?

Is it just me or does that line not make sense? :roll:

my bosses daughter is convinced that my car is a RHD ford probe :shock: My favorite was the kid asking me about my car at the carwash
Are all the skylines RHD
Unless they're converted yes
so, is that a 2007 model then?
then i explained the import laws to him, i don't mind talking wiht curious people who've never seen or noticed the car before but i can't stand the know it alls who know **** all. I had a kid look at my car and ask about the RHD then he lookes at the back and says"skyline, those are illegal here" I said yes they are and im a criminal.

"skyline, those are illegal here" I said yes they are and im a criminal.

I wonder what the outcome would be if you were talking to a cop and he asked "aren't they illegal?" and you answered it the same :P

I had a very enthusiastic young lad ask to see my engine the other day. I've got a T88 single turbo, and he almost vomited when I opened the hood...Then he asked me what the heat shield was for.... :roll:
uuuummmmm......it's to shield the heat..... :wink:
