    Not many actually comments but when I drive my truck I get alot of people looking. Unfortunately, I also get a lot of police attention too. I havent gotten any tickets outside of a couple seatbelt ones, but I do get pulled over fairly regularly.

    My Volksrod gets to much attention I have to leave 20 mins early every day to get to work on time. I am really getting kind of sick of it.

    Rolling through a car show in Texas last week I got a "wow" and a "damn" at the same time by a group of older guys standing next to their vettes (2) and cobra. You can hear my supercharger from pretty far away.

    Got an even bigger wow when the c6 and I got on the hwy.

    Sometimes I get randomly hit on by girls at stop lights, and honda's LOVE to do ricer fly bys on me lolol.

    One thing I thought was cool is that one day sitting at a red light an ecplorer pulled up next to me. A little boy stuck his head out of the rear window, looked at my car and said dad look he has black wheels! It's so nice!

    No matter how cool you are on here, qd, I am better at you in real life. So continue to desperetly cling to IA as it is the ONLY place where you could be considered cool.

    My brake rotors are probably the size of your wheels, get off my nuts QD.

    When I had my old Accord, I used to get driving down the road all the time. Other times, stopped at gas stations, older car guys (40s-50s that) would tell me how nice my car looked. Those were the compliments I took to heart the most. If i can get a guy thats been raised on hot rods and muscle cars to stop and take time out from what they were doing to compliment me on my honda, i know im doing something right

    True or false: I have a pink T-shirt with "It's not a bald spot, it's a solar panel for my sex machine" written on it.

    (Hint: True)


    On topic, I think the two coolest times with me was this little kid and his dad walking by. The kid looked at my hood scoop and said to his dad "Woah, that's an awesome car." The dad looked at me and said "My son and I like your car."

    The other was an older guy (55+) that crossed the street in front of my car at a stoplight. He checked it out as he was walking past and gave me a thumbs up.

    I used to get compliments all the time in my last car, but it's always a special occasion in this one.
