long story. ill give you the cliffs.

rolling in my girls auto 3 liter...its got some mods so its kinda loud. just cruising lightning gets next to us...i guess he thought i was revving/trying to race him. 'ARE YOU SERIOUS!?!?' he yells to me...so i say back 'yea man, im racing you in my girls auto family car, get a life not everyone wants to race your lame pickup'

next week (this week) im in my 3.5 swap....i see him...my girl wants me to follow him down and race him because he was a ****...so i get next to him at a light...he revs at me...i yell out my window 'ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!!'...and he takes off...i usually dont drive like a **** but he was cutting through traffic and i followed suit right on his ***. i wanna get a real race with him. i have a feeling i can take him. oh well only good comment ive had about it.

I raced a guy with a Honda S2000 with a few bolt-ons and he didn't get me but by maybe 2-3 lengths and after the race:

Him: "Like my tailights"
Me: "(joking)I didn't pay attention...I didn't know we were racing LOL"
Him: "LOL...Well that's what you get for driving a Mazda"
Me: "......it's a Nissan you moron"
Him: "W/E it's still junk"
Me: "Dude...you drive a Honda"

I was pretty P/O'd at the guy...he kept bragging how he beat a sedan the whole night...lol

After I pointed out the obvious (or not so obvious to him), he came back with, "It is a 5-speed. It has four speeds forward and 1 speed back." Reverse is a direction, not a speed, genius! It's still an inside joke with my friends who know about that story.

salesmen at car dealerships SUCK sometimes. seriously, some of them are just plain stupid. how can you sell something when you know nothing about it? they need to do their homework lol.

i had a salesman at a dealership trying to tell me that my car is "cute" (cars are not 'cute'), and asked what kind of car it is - this was a a NISSAN dealership. ohhhhmygosh, stupidity runs rampant at this place. these guys try to sound smart about cars....so i said, "it's a maxima....you know, a nissan? you guys sell nissan's here." otherwise, i've had the usual, "your car is slow" comments which really **** me off.

Your car was probably annoyingly loud dude. I have neighbors with "racing exhausts", you know, the kind where the dB's is highers than the HP's...and I don't appreciate their taste in "modifications" one bit.

Anyways, stupidest thing said to me has been "why don't you do the 5 speed swap too?" on a few occasions. As if an AT car CAN'T be a good performer

a person downtown one night looked over at me and said " Nice Maxima is that the se-r version??? they were completely serious.

another time i was at a Infiniti Dealership looking at wheels on the G35's. The sales person came out asked if he could help me. I told him i was just looking at the different wheels on the g35's cause i had been possibly thinking about getting a set for my maxima as a extra set of wheels. He replied back to me " infiniti wheels wont fit on your maxima they are a complete different bolt pattern. I then walked him over to my max with the m45 wheels on it and said they dont fit huh? he had a pissed of confused look on his face. I told him they bolt right now and then i left lol

Talking with a kid who plays way too much NFS Underground:

Kid: Is it automatic or manual?
Me: Auto. I wish I had the money for a 5spd swap.
Kid: 5 speed? Does that improve acceleration, top speed, or handling?

In 2004 I started a new job and the girl in the office next to me is going on and on about her new 2004 Acura TSX.

I politely said, "oh, that's a nice car." She asks what car I drove, so I told her.

She says, "my husband wants that car but he won't buy it because it looks cheap."

So I said, "Is that right? Well, when I was shopping around before I bought my Maxima, I looked at the TSX but I would never drive a 4 cyl."

She says, "The TSX is NOT a 4 cyl."

I said, "Hmm, looks like you got ripped off if you think your TSX is anything more than a 4 cyl." I later saw her looking on the internet, checking to see if the TSX is in fact a 4 cyl.

Sorry to those who have a TSX. I am not critizing it, just defending my Maxima.

lol.. that's kind of a BIG thing to screw up on.. I'd be quite upset if I thought I was buying a 6, but it turned out to be a 4-banger A nice 4, but still a 4...
