Pauly Posted 10February, 2014 Report Share Posted 10February, 2014 I'm sure someone has said something stupid about your car before with out thinking. I'll start When i first got it, this guy walks into the workshop and says "oh wow, nice Ferrari!" And I was at the carwash when this guy approached me.. Guy: aye do a skid Me: man, tyres don't grow on trees Guy: mate relax is a rotor... Me : I think you should look at the car properly Guy: It's a rx7 isn't it? me : have a closer look guy: Is that a porsche?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Man Posted 10February, 2014 Report Share Posted 10February, 2014 Fuel tank and half the stuff is out of the front boot for the evap repair. Three different people asked "Did you take the engine out" or "Where is the engine"? They quickly corrected themselves when I gave them a look that reminded them they should know better and pay more attention when I talk 993 to them!

withers Posted 11February, 2014 Report Share Posted 11February, 2014 I've been asked this at least 10 times - even by people that are into cars "Is it Turbo charged?" No.. "Oh aren't all Porsches Turbos?" No only the Turbo ones are Turbo charged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Posted 11February, 2014 Report Share Posted 11February, 2014 My boss delivers some wood to my house and the garage is open. He says, "is that an old Ferrari?".... The in laws visit (I know, I know..) and my wife's Aunty says, "the rear seats are so cute." Thankfully her uncle chimes in and tells her it's a mans car and not meant to be cute. I've also had the usual, why is the engine in the back. My usual response is, I don't know, that's just the way they build them. And then I talk about the weather....
