I think by far my best one was i was showing my friend my new svx one dark friday night, and i hear from behind me the whirr of 4 cylinders and in a few seconds, the roar of hondas....HEHEH ROAR....Hondas...anyways, Im in a 2 lane road 2 vs 2, with a yellow lane in the middle, so this one thing comes up next to me, the other breaks out into the yellow lane, and i hear them both downshift, and im like, oh no way in hell, so i just romp on it, and i leave these two, things behind me, later they pull up to me at a light.....IS THAT TWIN TURBO? I about fell outta my seat...........Obviously they knew nothing about turbos....or slow subarus...

it has to be one of the best things in the world when you roast a high and mighty honda just to make them humble, and make them rethink that whole vtec thing.

about the window thing I had an found an older gentleman outside where I work with his face on my roof trying to see through the roof into the car. Glass roof would be cool, I guess the zymol is doing its thing.

ive never heard of minereferred to as a probe, but it was quite funny when i was asked by a SUBARU sales man what it was

even funnier to get asked if it was a corvette or viper

it was even listed once on a parking ticket as car/truck/small SUV

Same here...the sales guy I bought mine from didn't even know what it was. During my 1/2 hour test drive I ended up explaining the history of the car to him!

It's pitiful to think about how few people actually know this car was made!
