A strange meeting at Chevron
As I was filling up my FD at Chevron gas station today in Torrance, a 70 year old man who was filling up his old cadillac with his wife walked by my car and I was shocked at what he said.
him: "What a car! What a car!"
me: (shocked) "You know what this car is?"
him: "Sure do!"
me: (still shocked)
him: "I haven't seen one of these in a long long time, they are really rare!"
me: "Yea, they never brought many over to the US"
him: "What year is it? How many miles?"
me: "109k, 1993, 14 years old!"
him: "I really like these much more than rx8's"
me: (shocked again)
him: "It was the best car Mazda ever made. It was one of the best cars ever made..."
I shook his hand and told him to take care. But that definitely made my night!

yeah. japanese guys instantly recognize FD's. I'm surprised when white people know that it's a Mazda and not a Viper of Vette. I'm even more surprised if they don't ask me if it's a turbo or non-turbo. haha.
