... Or any exotic car for that matter. If this has been posted before, I'm sorry for restarting an old topic. Anyway, I'm just curious what kind of silly comments you've all heard from random on-lookers on the street, at a restaurant, at a park, etc. I got the idea from S2Ki.com and LotusTalk.com where these types of threads are very entertaining to read. I don't currently own a Ferrari (or exotic car) so I don't have a humorous tale to share. Anyone else, though? BTW, if anyone's interested in reading the "Funny/stupid things people say about your..." threads from S2Ki or LotusTalk, I can post the links... Or you can search them yourselves.

I just read through MANY pages of those old threads. Very interesting! Some of the best threads on FChat, those.
No worries, the point wasn't to kill the thread... But to collect some of those golden oldies together. Hopefully, some new stories can be posted.
I already posted this in a different section, but since you're asking, and since this thread is a more appropriate spot for this, here goes: This is what I've heard from people: 1) is it real? 2) is it a kit? 3) how much? 4) wanna trade? (i've heard this the most) 5) this is a porsche (telling me not asking me) 6) nice fiero pu$%y I think I am going to buy a Fiero with a sign that says "This is really a Ferrari with a Fiero body kit"...imagine the looks on peoples faces if I actually did this
Mostly I get: "What kind of car is that?" I say "Ginetta" They say "Who makes it?" I say "Ginetta" They say "Is it a kit car?" I say "No, Ginetta builds them" They say "Oh, it's nice" I say "Thanks" Once in the 348 at a gas station a girl walks up to my car and says "What kind of car is this (as she points to the word 'Ferrari' on the rear deck)?" Then she quickly says "Oops, I see..." I say "No problem, lots of these cars stay hidden in the garage, not everyone knows what they are." BT
You know. Take some aluminum, steel, leather, plastic etc. Put it in a big box and shake like crazy for a few days.
Usually when I come up with my M3 no one notices. They just think it's just like a "regular BMW." But to the people that know cars they know what's up.
