A high school gf called it a spaceship the first time she rode in it. Here's why:

-She got beaned by the automatic seatbelts when she first got in.
-She screamed when they moved back after she closed the door.
-She couldn't figure out why she couldn't unbuckle the automatic seatbelts that beaned her when she first got in.
-She couldn't find the door handle to get out (this is when she asked if I was kidnapping her. No joke, but it wasn't a serious question).
-She'd never been in a car with a manual transmission so she didn't like that the car would roll back a little on a hill before I'd catch it. I was still new to the car.

Suffice it to say she isn't the brightest girl I've ever been out with.

i actually got asked the 4cyl 6cyl question last night by a friend to which i laughed and said neither its a supercharged v8. i didnt mind the question but the idiot has been under the hood with me and done work with me...idk

today i got my new rotors SP slotted ones, and I proceeded to install them. I saw my friend (mind you he knows so little about cars needed me to go with him to pep boys to get windshield wipers) and he came over to bs with me. As I'm installing them he goes "man whats wrong with them they have a big open gap." I explain the difference between the types of rotors there are and that these are slotted ones and he responds "Oh cool are you gonna return those defective ones and get the slotted ones?" ...classic

im on illuminas and H&R's - im at the gas station getting a sandwich pretty late at night and this guy goes to me "Yo man i think you got too much air in your tires they are too close to the fenders" ...thanks for the tip guy

edit: i just sat here and read all 10 pages, greatest thread ever!

my girlfriend asked me one time if i was kidnapping her also:
it was when my door hinges were bent/out of alignment and it wouldnt open for her unless she rammed her shoulder into the door

funny times!

never a good sign when your so called girlfriend asks if you're kidnapping her. joke or not. if she says that to you, you're obviously not close, and is it worth the time and money to be with someone who is probably doing the old hershieser on some other guy when you're not around?

you should of read the stuff after you signed up. you have to have 15 post before you can start a new thread, and hijacking another thread to get your "i love maxima's and i want to buy one" is not a good way to get started. just my .02.

anyways back on subject
i've had someone say that my car was a 2002 with the 3.5 and i told him now i just swaped the front end and he told me that is was impossible.

also i have recieved questions about me having a shift light in my family sedan from guys who have a 5" tach mounted on the dash. my reply is that my tach doesn't keep up when i use nitrous. their reply is almost always " you got nos on your car? that's not good you're going to blow it up. i saw it on the fast and the furious"

i really wish that was joke but it wasn't. so sad what people think is reality and what isn't.

this is a really good thread by the way.

Not really a comment, but it is hilarious when some Bubba flashes his Ford/Chevy highbeams at you because your HIDs are brighter that his yellow burners.

MY Best friend has an 89 RX7. I was driving it last summer and got pulled over (for nothing thankfully). When the cop came to the window the first thing he said was "How the hell can a kid like you afford a Ferrari?"

Black 89 RX7. The "Mazda" and "RX-7" Emblems are WHITE, LARGE and on the rear of the car still.

I said "WOW, you must know your cars better then me officer. Last time I checked the Bumper is Said MAZDA on it!!!"

LOL....

I have an 87 300ZX Turbo for my Summer Toy. In 88 the 300 Turbo has 205 horse and 227 Torque.

The Mustang GT (5.0 V-8) The mustang had 230 horse and 310 torque and WEIGHT 483 LBS LESS!!!

The Z had better a slightly better Quarter mile and it had better Top End. The Z's 0 - 60 was just a tad slower. (0.25 sec.)

Hmm... Who did a better job at the drawing board?
