Do you guys feel weird when...

You go into an auto store or just anywhere and when ask what car you drive and you tell them that they all stare at you?
Before I owned a supra it was fascinating seeing one.. Now I know how weird it is to be stared at because you have a supra. I was at autozone and this guy and girl that work there kept asking me where is it where is it. Even customers behind me started asking me about it.. I just wanted my rear main seals :(

Its awesome to have a supra, its just awkward when your ask what you drive.

It is kinda weird, but usually the questions stop when they find out its not the one from Fast and the Furious, lol.

No, it makes me proud of it and more sure of my decision to buy it, even though it's a little rough around the edges.

HAH! Yep...


When I had my Supra and when I tell people I used to have one, they're always shocked. Then when I show them a picture of it 9 out of 10 usually go... "That's not a Supra..."

Exactly what I was thinking.

What annoys me, everytime I go to the jeep dealer for cherokee parts they always assume I have a grand cherokee. I always say 'jeep cherokee', honestly how many grand owners would be buying parts rather than bringing it in for service ; p Ive learned now, I just have to say cherokee Sport and then its clear. Even though I have a country model not sport... which causes later confusion if theres a trim issue.

Not at all, it makes me happy. Their ignorance is my bliss, knowing that I could take down whatever they drive.

Everyone I talk to tells me my car is badass, and no one ever asks me if it's the same as from the movie :dunno: I've never had anyone get disappointed when I tell them it's an older one.

I have had a couple people that were obviously disappointed. I took one of them, a guy at the tire shop, for a spin. Second gear, 3000 rpm, straight bit of road, I went WOT right next to a concrete wall and let it rev out to redline. The guy was holding onto the holy shit handle for dear life, and I thought he pissed himself when the wastegate opened up and the sound was reflected off the wall.

He asked if it was faster than the Mk4, and I said, "Considerably. Where do you think they got the technology for the Mk4?"

Haha yes..People are always asking "is that your Supra out there?"..yes..yes it is.

I told one guy I had a civic as DD and also had the Supra turbo and he said "oh well i bet the civic is faster right?"..umm no.."Well i bet it is from a stop"..umm no..Of course he drives a v6 mustang...
