Who the hell wants a z06?

They're nice, they're fast, they handle, etc. but--they're as common as ******* honda accords around here.

I've been at a traffic light with 4 of them, and these guys definitely weren't travelling together.

Hey look, *another* frickin' C5! Whoop de doo!

Whereas with the FD, "Wow! Is that the new porsche? "

"What year ferrari is that?"

Whenever people ask me if my FD is a Miata, I just say (with a ****-eating grin ) "Go ahead and hop in the passenger seat--let's go for a quick ride!"

Trust me, they learn...

My FD is the only one where I live, so it's actually more rare than ferrari's and lambo's here. The exterior is still stock and I still get looks every block. The funny ones are when people are driving by my house and stop in the middle of the road to look, or when they hang out their window yelling "Nice car!" from a block away. Plus, I haven't lost a race yet, and though I know there are a couple cars here that could beat me, none of them have yet! What other car can you get for less than 20k that'll give you all that?

every day I think, I commute 90mi a day why did I buy a car that REQUIRES premium gas and gets barely 18mpg? then I drive it and remember I get to drive a FANTASTIC sports car that fits me like a glove and responds instantly to my every whim 90 MILES A DAY! and on weekends I make excuses to leave the house just so I can drive it some MORE!!!
