My best compliments are the subtle "damn, seriously?" ones I get when I tell them it's a 2003. Always always puts a smile on my face

People compliment me on my car regularly. I want to get there sanity checked every time I hear it. I have my front/rear bumper primer gray, I have a cracked *** carbon fiber hood, with rusted hood pins. And two different styles of wheels I own on there. 20's in the rear and 19's up front, ugly as sin. The only thing that makes me feel better about it is I can picture in my imagination what its going to look like when I'm done.

Haha. I opened the door the other day to our house and stuck my head out and I was just staring outside at my car for like 3 minutes straight. My mom comes up to me and says "What are you looking at?" I reply with " Shhh mom, I'm imagining my new wheels on my car slammed to the ground!" Yep... She walked away lol.

I have a dark chrome illusion paint job which flips colors as you drive by; black, dark purple, dark green, gold, dark blue, etc...

ANYWAYS,

I was driving down 81 in WV and all of a sudden a 2012 white GTR pulled on the highway next to me and I was a few cars behind and I was loving on his car and so I passed everyone to get next to him, and as I am falling in love with his car he rolls down his window and starts taking pictures of my car and yells "F****'n SICK bro! LOVE it!" and at that moment my head exploded.

I'm guilty of checking out my reflection when I drive by large windows in parking lots.

^^^I'm guilty of the same thing.
I was behind a brand new FR-S and the kid driving it gave me a thumbs up so i gave him one too. I yelled out the window, "How do you like your car?" he said its quick. but I love your car too. the light turned green and he took a left as quick as he could and i stayed right on top of him.

I just got my Z so I'm not very used to this, but I was looking for my new girlfriends sisters place. I got a bit lost so I had to make a u turn past these two kids. I heard the one tell the other as they drooled "that car is perfect, like who needs anything else perfect" haha I could not control my smile.

I get a compliment usually anywhere i go. The Solar orange attracts alot of attention. Most love it and some hate the color. I love it and its different from the white and blacks one's where i live.

Here are some good one's ive gotten:

"Nice Porsche!!"
"Freaking sick car man"

And my all time favorite....


** Thumbs up ** by 3 insanely hot chicks in a range rover.

Had someone at work say, "Man, is that your 911 Porsche?! That thing is tight."

But also was recently at the gas station and some girl was leaving and she drove by me and stopped and said, "OMG, you have my favorite dream car and it's souped up too! Can I buy it from you I'll give you fifty thousand dollars for it!" With her bf looking on. LOL!

Three days ago I was playing paintball and on the way back to my car these kids and their dad were walking back to their car, which was parked right next to mine. They got next to my car, while I was still away, and the kid yelled from the top of his lungs. "Dad I want that car!"

Than yesterday, I went to the bank to withdraw some cash for my dad, but that's irrelevant I don't even know why I am saying this. I just can't stop typing. Anyways, this nice lady calls me up and when I get there she says "Is that your orange car out there?" Than she talks to me about my insurance and how it must be high lol, and said "I'll give you my address so you know where to park it."

That's one of the main things people always tend to mention, " Your insurance must be so damn high..."

In actuality, the insurance is only $30 more than when I owned a Toyota Camry

Lol that's nice. Mine jumped up like $40-50 a month. My record is clean, so it is probably because I am younger.

*knock on wood

Someone once said I was the love of her life

That was flattering and then we were happy, but I guess she was married.
