I had a few people ask me if it was a Porsche. I thought it was funny.

Also my neighbor was talking to my wifes uncle about it last week and was telling him it was hottt and it looks like a $100k car.
He is a very hard person to get a compliment from, so that meant alot to me.

i passed a guy on a country road and a few days later he stopped in where i work because he saw my car out front and wanted to tell me how cool it was and that it sounded awsome when i flew by. The best part was the excitement in his voice when talking to me.

This sentence deserves an individual comment:
  • It is cul de sac not "coldasac"
  • Can I get a run-on?
  • "I saw a cul de sac with..." is terrible stylistically.
  • People sit "on the end" of a tailgate. They sit "at the end" of a cul de sac.
  • You spelled revved correctly. Congratulations.
  • People do not "flash their tops."
  • Ellipses are followed by a space.
  • That is: That's. Not "thats."
  • You don't need the second set of ellipses ("three little dots").



ether way it was pretty awesome. [New sentences begin with a capital letter. "Ether" is an anesthetic. "Either" is the word you're looking for. You need a comma after "way."]
Consider the following revision:

While I was in Maine by the beach side, I [noticed, saw, spotted] a group of [attractive, good-looking, fine] chicks at the end of a cul de sack. They were apparently watching the waves. I revved the engine and spun around a few times. They flashed their breasts.

That's a compliment, right?

Either way, it was awesome!

Yesterday the two cashiers at Kragen walked out and watched me park as I pulled up. They seemed impressed. When I checked out they both commented on how good the car looked.
Then they made a reference to Tokyo Drift.
That's when I left promptly. Ughh.

Default My Neighbor

The other day I had the hood of the car open as I was checking my 06 oil consumption hog, better known as a 350Z. And my neighbor who had just move down from Texas said in a southern accent:

"I thought Porsche had their engine in the back!"

Just my second day with my '07 Redline Enthusiast... filling up at a gas station... and then I catch myself talking to my car. I said to my Z 'Damn your hot!' and I didn't even notice that there was a cute girl on the other side of the pump and she said 'What was that?'... and I said.. 'Oh, I was talking to my car'... and then she laughed and said 'Yeah, your car is hot!'

I was at a car show a couple of months ago. There were a lot of corvettes in the show. Two guys stood by my car and said forget those vets this is one hot car. Made my day.

Talking

Conversation on the 3rd day of owning my Z at the pump:


Random Guy: Hey, that's a nice looking toy you have there!

Me: Thanks! I just got her and she's no toy.

Random Guy: I'd get me one of those if I didn't have to pay child support!

Me: I'm not there yet!

Random Guy: Well with a car like that you will be soon!


I couldn't agree more and just laughed as I drove off with the biggest smile on my face

I got a "You can take me home with you" from some random chick about 2 days ago. And believe me I followed through.
