When I went for spark plugs last time the guy confirmed I wanted leading and trailing (I just gave the NGK part numbers) and asked if they were going into a motorcycle. I said no, RX-7 and he understood. Why don't I run into amusing people who are uninformed about our niche engine?

I was washing my car today and my neighbor comes out, who drives a 240 coupe.
My 7 is parked next to my mx-6
N: Hey! how much did you get your '240' for?
Me: ugmm you mean this car? [pointin to the mx-6]
(then it came to me he was reffering to the 7)
Me: you mean this? [pointing to my 7]
N:yeah, 240s are reliable.

my Bro -in- law picked up a SUPER clean s5 and I went with him to his friends house to show it off. The neighbor comes out talking all this **** about taking road corses and getting to know your car before you drive it on the road... then he comes with this:
"If you want a Mazda that makes real power, you should trade this in for a Miata"
Us: What do you drive?
"Mini coop"
Us: Really? Making some real power.
"It's got a turbo [and this and that], I dont hardly take it out"
-Just then a woman drives by in a Mini Cooper and waves at the guy-
Us: Is that your car?
"Ya"
We laugh and he leaves.

Actually, at my local Kragen, I usually end up talking to somebody about the Rex. If not the guys behind the counter, it's one of the customers around.
I usually get a story about how their friend / brother / in-law / uncle in another state had one and outran some cops... or something. One guy told me that he used to have a REPU and liked to do doughnuts in a dirt field with the redline buzzer screaming at him.
Interestingly, one of the guys at the store has a 76 Lancia Scorpion 1.8L carb that's in decent shape. I had to ask him what the hell it was. He was telling me about his engine swap plans, and I was going to tell him to drop a 13b in there, but figured he had enough work to do.

i entered my 91 vert at Nopi Nationals 2 years ago, and the group of judges come by to look it over, and as they are checking it out, one of the judges says:
"wow, this is the most impressive rotary swap into a miata i have ever seen! it looks factory!"
My dad had to hold me back.
stupid nopi judges. havent entered a car since.

thats sad (but then again it is NOPI)
i get the "whoa... your car smells REALLY bad, do you have an exhaust leek or something?"
but the one i cant stand is "oh cool, RWD, are you a drifter?"
everybody at work asks me "i hear your car can shoot fire! Show me!"
no, go home.

"Awwww, your boyfriend lets you drive his car?"
Mother ******, my boyfriend doesn't TOUCH this car!
I also love when guys pull up at traffic lights and rev their engines like they want to race, then stop doing it when they realize it's a girl driving the car. And then I blow 'em out of the water

FC3C 90, PGT 89.
This happened before I knew much about rotaries. It was my 1st Rx7. I had just purchased the car. I knew it had a rotary, and I knew the basic functionality of it. The car had around 90k miles at the time. So I stopped in a shop, and asked the guy how much to change the timing belt. He looked at me in disgust.
Him: "That car doesn't have a timing belt."
Me: "Oh, ok then, have a nice day!"
And I walked out, and never went there again. I will never forget the look on his face. He looked like he wanted to hurt me. Maybe he thought I was messing with him. O well. Live and learn!
