"thass a hot ride bro"

or
[revving @ ur stock setup] , while "they" have spent thousands of dollars on their non luxory rice mobile and still no contest.

 

I get "Sick ride" practically everyday, then they ask me whats that funny smelling smoke comming out of my car.

 

I had a guy at Cosco gas station just raving about Maxima's period...he had a 4th gen. Had a nice converstation, educated him about Maxima.org...i am not sure if he signed up or not

 

On my way to the track a couple of weekends ago for a import shoot out race, there was a guy pumping gas next to me at the station. I had my trunk open, NX bottle, slicks, jack, stands, and toolbox esposed and he was looking inside, because I was getting some instant detailer out of there and he says to me: " Nice Maxima. I had the same maxima, but mine was all hooked up and stuff, you know neons, h.i.d.s, and a turbo and supercharger".

My favorite compliment that sometimes makes me feel like my borderline obssessive compulsive detailing and maintenance is worth it is when people ask me if it is a new maxima, or ask me if it is a new paint job.

 

 

"Dam what do you have under the hood?"--acura tl
"Thats a nice Maxima"--teens walking by
"Can I Have your rims"--Girl at a stop light
"Is this suede?"--girl in back seat

 

Man I am always getting perfect strangers just walking up to me and telling me how much they like my car. Just the other day someone asked me if something was wrong with my car because he said it was making a funny noise and i told "nop thats just the supercharger " and i tell you his jaw hit the floor. I am deffinetley not bragging because i feel the car still has a lot of work to be done to it and sometimes i just don't like all the extra attention this car gets. Working on my car is just one of my hobbies and sometimes i get aggravated with all the attention, but i guess it comes with the territory.


Almost made a guy get in a wreck the other day because he was looking at my car instead of watching the person in front of him

 

You know that look that Donald Sutherland gives the lady with the baby carriage at the end of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers"? I get that a lot.

 

"Oh sh|t, n|gga's drivin a bentley"

In regards to seeing my nose:

 

when driving by, people look ... when im passing people they flash me.. maybe they like the way it looks OR theyre upset i just went around them like theyre standing still...

First time i met Sprint Max, i was parked next to the real white max : So Neel, when are you going to wash your car, you cant show up to a meet with a dirty car... ME- i did wash it, its Arctic White its the Eggshell color i said with some disdain in my voice...
Other then that i just get people that stare from time to time and thats it... 95K and still killin animals on my daily commute ..


One MOre that always comes up.... WHY WOULD YOU PAINT YOUR CF HOOD ....

 

Giving friends a ride:
Me: The seatbelt is down there.
Them: Ok
Me: There's the oh **** handle(s)
Them: Crap
Me: *starts car*

I was in Jersey visiting family and this guy in 4th gen was just gawking at me, almost getting into an accident cause he didn't keep his eyes on the road. I think its the Zaino- I really do. :-)

 

I think the best one I've got so far was from a middle aged women at the front office of my apartment complex at the time. In the process of paying the months rent she commented:

"I love that Acura of yours. I just noticed today that it's actually a dark green and not black."



At her age, I couldn't blame her. I know she just didn't know any better, so I took it as a complement and politely corrected her.

One that never gets old though is: "Wow! Is that the new 2 thousand blah blah Maxima?!"

....its all in paint baby!!
