Topic #36448 16 posts Started by x_itchy_b_x
ok, so im sleeping in my car in the college parking lot waiting for my next class.
i wake up to an old guy next to my window but not looking in. i hear him go
"hey (some other guys name that he was there with) is that new corvette?"
other guy goes " i dont know maybe? what does it say on the back?"
so the guy near my window walks behind my car while im trying to not laugh.
"its a celica?" he says with confusin lol. laugh.gif
then they go back to walking around the track that lines the parking lot.
yeah haha end of story. pretty weird.

I'd be laughing, but insulted at the same time... celica's got much more class than a vette smile.gif

That's dumb people right there. There is NO excuse for not recognizing the tiny-ass headlamps on the Integra and the big and bigger ones on a Celica. Some people just don't pay attention to detail. rolleyes.gif

Oh, some little girl called my Celi a Honda. I almost bitch-slapped the **** outta her! tongue.gif

I donno, people never mistaken my car... The Rice-Accord owner at my dad's place would say "nice celica!"... When I go to cigar shop the old dude would be like "nice 6th gen!", and I'd reply back "nice celica supra!"

If anyone calls my car an "integra", I'd be so mad...

its simple if people dont know much about cars they guess what our celica is with a popular car name like supra cos its a toyota or integra cos of 4 headlights lol.

Damn, I thought your car was a prelude. tongue.gif


J/P you rock !

I will return one day.
Oh! you mean our cars aren't supras. Sigh, Ive been telling everyone I drive a 94 supra. Oh Boy.

Yet
Perhaps these guys are not quite Americans and are ignorant on what we drive here? Shoot, that is pretty cool though to be mistaken for a Vette!!
