What do passengers say?

I was just curious... What do people say when they ride in or see your car? So many people comment on the windows and the suede interior.

My favorite comment thus far: Wasnt expecting this thing to be so fast! (best friend who owns a WRX)

2nd Favoride: These windows remind me of a space ship (my mom )

Eh, I dunno. most people , yeah, windows. Obviously. Other than that, I have nothing to brag about. I have an L model......meaning its basicly nothing special. Really sucks, cus Ill be explaining how AWESOME the svx is like

"Yeah, they have titanium tinted windshields.....well..mine doesnt, because its an L"

"Yeah, the all whell drive rules..But I have an L..so no"

"Ooh, yeah, leather and seude interior is very classy...but I have an L..so no"

"Yeah dude, a sunroof WOULD be cool. all the other ones have em too"

ive gotten plenty of comments tha the car has some power to it. Guess thats nice...but still, its kinda a waste when your blinded by the sun sitting in a cheap feeling interior chirping the tires every time you accelerate.

Meh, me being randomyl in a bad mood, ill change my mind later

Just about everyone I work with knows what the car looks like and once I tell them about the window they're like "Oh yeah... I've seen those". My XO today was talking to me and it came up and he said "I've heard those are a bit faster than corvettes." So even an old salty dog like him knows about it.

Him: "so you really wont let me drive it?"
Me: "you said when i bought it you thought it was wierd and didnt want to drive it"
Him: "yeah but now that i'm in it, it seems so cool and fast! Please let me drive it around town"
Me: "no i dont think youre male enough to handle it"
Him: "oh yeah fine then i will buy my own and drive it"
Me: "better make it an L series. yopu wouldnt know what to do if you stepped up from the crapastic beretta to the kick ass subaru"
Him: "So really you'll let me buy one?"

Yup thats right one ride that was 2 miles long convienced him to buy his own SVX just b/c i dont want him driving my girl around! Now if he could just pick a damn color!

Alot of people ask about the windows and when I had 5 people in it going to a club everyone enjoyed the ride and one little on-ramp accel in the rain of which not one tire spun (AWD LS-L ). Leg room in the rear is much to be desired tho...

Drift... Yeah been there, tried it, the Subee doesnt like it... and Im sure her wheel bearings didnt either

And my other half is always asking to drive it... and he does from time to time.. I think he likes to think people are looking at him when he drives it but we all know theyre gawking at either the windows or at how such a low-slung sports car has no issue in snow or mud... yeah I wont lie... its been in the mud

"How do I get out?", they say as they're trying to 'undo' the auto belts from the normal place.

I get this from my dad when he drives it to put gas in it my drivers side belt doesnt go forward most of the time so he opens the door and nothing. I just lift it over my head (its easier than turning the car back on or fixing it now thats its cold out!)

Or my boyfriend opens the pasanger door and the shoulder belt goes forward but not the lap and he trys to stand up. I will admit to doing that once after driving my moms car while suby was in the shop for a new tranny but he does this everytime! (face it i go for beauty before brains! )

My seatbelt sticks sometimes (usually when it's cold). A little jiggle and it moves.

A little giggle...or do you mean a little jiggle? How 'bout a little slap-'n-tickle?
