Re: someone asked me about my car today

Re: someone asked me about my car today

Not window specific but last time I was in for my tires he asked if my car had TPMS... I was like.. ouuwmmm.... ... it's a 94.... and it has really low miles (as he was looking in to get the mileage) at 197k lol... he did a double look, and was like... oh.

Re: someone asked me about my car today

I had so many finger prints on my widows from the last car show I could barely see out of them <LOL> People have to touch them . Once a kid sitting on a second story porch yelled across the street.(I was driving the Pearlie ) Hey dude is that a glass bubble top ? I looked at it and it sort of does look it .

WHOOPS!!

my gf works at a Panera Bread in Oakbrook and she told me a guy with a black SVX came in and she looked at him and said nice SVX and he gave her a look like "how did u know" after that she told him that I had one too and he was like "oooooo ok"

Was that anyone here?

Re: someone asked me about my car today

Just got back from my Credit Union . A guy pulls in with a WRX. Comes over and looks at my car. I said to him same color almost the same car. I said this one is WRX from the Crank back it's a 5 speed . He says Cool. Ready the good part . "My friend has a SVX too ,his is WRX from the Radiator back ." I said what! He took the entire 6 speed drive train out of a WRX SI and put it into a SVX. Is that easier/ got to ask Huck?

Re: someone asked me about my car today

so i got pulled over yesterday for expired plates, because the sticker is in the mail, and the cop comes up and says "you know your plates are expired?" i said "no the car is in my dads name" (or insurance purposes) he says "ok let me see your license and we will get you out of here with a warning" so i went to hand him it when he must have just noticed the windows and says "what the hell are those? i have never seen that before, do they go down or up?" i kind of giggled and said "no just this part" as i put the window up and down.

i thought that was funny cus you would think that with all the cars cops see he would have seen one at least once before!

Re: someone asked me about my car today

When I was living in San Francisco I was driving down to San Jose and saw blue lights in my rearview.... I pulled over and waited for the cop to come up.. trying to figure out what I did... He leans down and looks in the car and says "I just pulled you over to see what kind of a car this was." We talked for about 10 minutes and then parted ways.....
