ok so not about the FC, but could have easily been:
I'm at the state fair with my wife and we're walking by this huge lifted pickup with body mods including big flame like things along the sides. This small group walks by and this girl says "Are those decals?" (yes, she knew what they are) and a guy in the group says "No, it's paint." I go up to the truck, suspecting irony was on my side. Sure enough, they were decals!

The other day I was on the 125 going to the 94 when I noticed a POS v6 camaro riding my *** so i let him pass by going to the other lane. As he passes me he looks at me and trys to instigate a race so I smile and SMASH it and pass him, later on I seem him at another exit punching his steering wheel and screaming. well at least i thought it was funny...

Oh and I found out that this old guy at church with cancer built 4-rotor motors a lot, it was pretty funny, i should ask him to build me one before he crokes!

I was at a party and there where a couple rice boys there. They asked me what I drive and I said an 88 RX-7. They asked me what kind of engine it had in it. I smiled and answered 1.3L rotary. They looked at me with blank stares and asked "does it have vtec? I laughed and shook my head. They looked puzzled and asked me if I had the "twin turbo" version. I said I have the N/A. They replied "what a piece of ****" I laughed, downed my beer and thought "what a bunch of retards"

LOL I get that alot, when I tell someone I own an 88 RX7. They try to act cool and go "oh cool, rotary right? Twin turbo or single?". It does get somewhat annoying, but atleast they try.

I was at the gas station filling up, someone came up to me and asked me
"Hey man what is that?" Pointing at the FC
Since i had a REA FC2000 front bumper on..i said "a RX7 Turbo"
he immediatly said in a (i know it all voice) " Yeah man, i saw a 2002 rx7 for sale at the ferarri dealership, looks just like yours im thinking of buying it, unless yours is for sale?"
I ponderd and said "id let it go for 40k"
Him: WOW! why so cheap for a 02 ferarri?

ya but it doesnt have what are they called?......oh a turbo! Ya the probe has a turbo and just a few boltons. It makes enough power to make the v8 guys mad when they have a probe hanging right along side them.

rx7: rb header, bonez cat, cheap *** intake

probe: 2.5in catback(no muffler), chipped ecu, 14psi, bigger intercooler, and 2.5in custom intake

First day I took my FC to school I was chillin in the parking lot and my friend asked me "Where's the engine" So I pointed to the 13b. He's says "So it's a 4 cylinder", I shake my head. "6" he says, continue shaking my head. "8??? (getting confused)", I said "Nope, it's a rotary. 1.3L". He walked away with a headache and is still confused to this day on what a rotary is, and how it works...

I've tried to help him understand, he's even wiki'd it but still doesn't get it. I think the best thing he said to me was when he mentioned it to his neighbor and apparently his neighbor got like this look of fear and told him to stay far away from rotarys

Thats not backwards. The key ring hooks into what would be the oil galley, which is on the drivers side in the car. from motor spins clockwise in the car, making that correct.

Shainiac, I'm not sure what you were trying to say, but from the front of the car, it's cw, so naturally from inside the car it's ccw.

Ahhh, just remembered this.

Somebody in a Civic hatchback with the "POWERFUL VTEC" pulled up next to me. This is, of course, after I blew past his Accord/eclipse ricer buddies with wings/fartpipes/body kits..the works..* and he looks at me and says, "What is that?" I reply with, "RX-7". His awesome reply of, "I'D SMOKE THAT PIECE OF ****!". Well, needless to say, he did a ricer fly by after I decided to slow down 3 car lengths ahead of him

why do people insist on swearing their car will destroy you, then predictably get their *** handed to them, and then still think they're better/faster/cooler?
