It sounds stupid, but for dealerships, they'd rather have sales reps that know nothing about the car, and are focused on the numbers and the sale, then an enthusiast who likes the brand too much and over sells a car and loses the sale.

I guess I'm the "wrong" kind of buyer. I want to know and talk specs. I'm really not concerned about numbers because I offer invoice+tax®istration, if they don't take that I go to another dealer, there's no counter-offering involved when I buy a car.

I had someone tell me my car was quick for a Honda. Really? I wasn't very happy.

So my wife wants an older sti. We found a 2005 at a dealership close by, had low miles, black leather that was beautiful. Car was super nice. Salesman claims he used to have one and is a subaru fanatic. I thought "sweet". Hes excited cause we pulled up in my wrx and was glad he could talk cars with somebody that is really into subarus.
Him: "Wait till you see under the hood! (pops hood) what do you see?" Me: "fmic, intake, mishimoto radiator, perrin inlet" Him: "hell yea! This front mount adds 40 hp" (as he is pointing at the raditor which had red hoses) My wife: "thats the radiator" He was stunned for a minute a didnt know what to say |

For reference, car is a 2004 Outback H6 LLBean. Heard some good ones when I had it (Summer 2010 to May 2012; last 2 years of high school). It now belongs to my little brother, who's getting his license soon.
1. Friend: "Wait, is this another sun roof?? Oh my god, it is!!!!! Awesome!!" 2. Mom: "So, how are you liking the car?" Me: "I love it haha. Could use a bit of tweaking though; sway bars, Legacy suspension, new brakes, and headers would do the job" Mom: "I don't know what those are, but I don't want you putting them on" Me: "But I'll pay for-" Mom: "No." Me: *Update: Now in college and saving for either a 5MT swap or an LGT. 3. Little brother (after we've just driven most of Mulholland relatively quickly): *sniffs* "Hey, do you smell something burning" Me: "Yes. My brakes." Little brother: "Hold on, I'll go splash some water on them to cool them down." Me: "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!" |

Had a few girls tell me they hump my car at night while it sits in my driveway. Unfortunately they're not very good looking. Had another ask why it was so loud on the way to dinner the other night and I couldn't help but smirk and say because race car. I did a first through second gear pull for her, she seemed to enjoy that quite a bit.

Wasn't a phrase, but a stock white Civic SI with über cool black wheels pulled up to me in traffic at a red light letting the stopping of his car jolt him back into his seat slouching with one hand at 12 and staring at me with a hoodie and sunglasses on. I just laughed at him, so he red-lined every gear through the light while still in traffic, which i kept laughing at him as my lane moved faster than his. You're not a jackass Honda driver until you drive/act like a jackass Honda driver.
