Oh yeah, I get these quite a bit too.
"Why'd you put a widebody kit on a Cavalier?" Ummmm,....I didn't. Its just the Cavalier and Beretta's Big Brother. And yes, it IS better than a Camaro (Z/28 < Z/34! :owned:)
My girlfriend has finally gotten the hang of the outside doorhandles though :)

Park
I think one of the more sillier questions I have been asked is: Is there air in those tires or are they solid rubber? I just said what? I'm running 215/35/18's. Then there are the standard comments. How do you drive it when it's touching the ground..ect... Why did you ruin a perfectly good truck, how do you haul stuff..ect..goes on and on

RX_AGENT
Is that a real type-R?

MrHeavyFoot
Them: Is it chipped?
Me: You mean other than the windshield?

I bet their next question (perhaps un-asked) after you tell them you paid for it yourself is:

"Do you sell drugs"?

GTS Jeff
"do u go drifting?"

TurboMR2
here's my list...

1) No way that car is 11 year's old?
2) Where's your trunk?
3) How did you get it so shiny?
4) Where's your engine?
5) What's that snorkel on your car? (referring to the Tom's Air Scoop ;) )
6) Is it turbo?

Z3r0
what year is it?
how did you get that huge dent in fender?
is that primer on the fender?
is it fast?
is it twin turbo?

rexxrally

Originally posted by Z3r0

The answer to that question is:

"Thank you SO MUCH for once again bringing back a horrible and painful memory for me. My mother DIED in that car accident. Why don't you give that knife in my heart an extra twist?"

I said that to a guy once (who I know could take a joke). His jaw hit the floor, and I could see he felt about 2 inches high. He then started mumbling, and back-pedalling and apologizing profusely (not to mention sweating).

Then I started to laugh, and he wanted to kill me.................... :D
