How's a cobalt gonna win if it cant go straight. My moms is base model and has way too much torque steer to do anything more then normal driving. Oh and you cant see out of the hunk of junk because the A pillars are 6" thick. I hate that car..

i was in the local tire store the other day getting some tires swapped around. while i was waiting the owner of the store started asking me questions about my car. another customer lurking around the showroom overhears us and has to add his 2cents.
"thats the closest thing to a mustang"
not sure what he was implying but i just shook my head and ignored him.

this is the car

I was driving a 1988 AE that was in perfect original shape and a guy in a honda pull up at a light and said, Nice Z car. I was embarassed for him. I said to him, It's an Rx-7. He then said Yea Nissans are cool. I just drove away shaking my head.

Reminds me of when I got bitched out by a moderator on gran turismo forums for using "cuz" instead of "because." Dick.. I let him have it and haven't went back since

Asked for plugs and wires from advance the other day and the lady was scrolling up and down for a good wile looking confused. then I realized I never told her about leading and trailing and as soon as I did she said "oh well that makes sense now" I just smiled.

Everyone: "Does it have a v8 swap?" Followed by "you should v8 swap it"

Animal rights activists would cringe at that statement if they didn't know you talking about a Rotary engine!

At the parts counter:

"whoa, uhhh, sparkplugs are expensive for this car. They are $7 a piece. Appearently they are like a special kind."

"Yeah, I know."

"looks like we only carry one kind also."

"Yeah, I know. I want the NGK's. Its no problem"

"So it looks like you need 2 leading and 2 trailing spark plugs."

"Yeah, I know. So you have them in stock?"

"Uh, no. I have the trailing but not the leading. I can get the leadings here by Tuesday."

FAWK! on to the next place.

My parents always tell me this one:

"Put your stock exhaust on, you wake everyone up when you leave"
Or
"Why does it shoot flames?"

Had this encounter with a little girl at the gas station...I have no cat so it smells a bit.

Girl: Mister! Why is your car stinky?!
Me: Do you know what New Car smells like?
Girl: Yes.
Me: Well sweetheart, this is what Old Cars smell like.
Girl: Ooooooh!

I'm selling my FC and while I was at work my buddy said "That's your car back there right? You're selling it?" and another kid overheard him and said "How much you asking?" and I told him "4 grand" and explained everything about it. I mentioned the bad gas mileage and he goes "pfft, that's an easy fix" and I told him it isn't on a rotary and I've already changed plugs, wires, fuel filter and he gave me a weird look and told me "When I buy it, I'll show you" so I laughed and then he says "I've always wanted an RX7" but when he first seen it he asked "What is that?" and when I said "Mazda RX7" he said "I've never heard of it".

Let's just say he won't be buying my car, even if he has the cash.
