The best for me,

Standing in a group of people and hearing some guy say "have you seen that green sprint getting round town? it's got a pink sticker on the back, that's clean as!"

I'm just standing there, not saying a word, thinking this is awesome. Biggest grin. =D

A female friend of mine said I was a try-hard wog because my car is so low.

Well I've had no licence for a while now so there's mostly mates and a few people at uni that I don't even know asking where my car is, and commenting on how clean it looks, then you tell them your collecting turbo parts and their eyes light up like you own a Ferrari, lol. It gives you a good feeling and makes you wanna rob a bank to finish your car A.S.A.P. haha.

I just got one today when I was working at the construction site. It was parked on the dirt and a bloke came up to me and said..."Excuse me, is that your XR?" I replied with "ahh, yeah". "That's the straightest one i've seen, that's mint as" he says. "Cheers" I replied.
Then we went back to doing our own work!

335JET · 10-08-2006, 08:38 PM

the main comment i get is;
"its a manual, never seen that in a Falcon 6"

**El Venom** · 10-08-2006, 08:44 PM

atleast once a week i have someone ask me if my car is a tickford version or the say how cool it looks with the vents on the bonnet. other then the vents and the exhaust time the exterior is stock as a rock

Poetic Justice · 10-08-2006, 09:30 PM

I hear alot about how tough my exhaust sounds, but not alot else

kraddy · 10-08-2006, 10:50 PM

I went into the tyre shop not long ago and a guy was looking over at my car. The first thing he said to me was that i had just inspired him to wash his car. He asked me how much work i put into it because everytime he sees it out on the street he says it looks schmick. ( I have to big stickers on the back window so my car is pretty easy to spot on the road.) Geez I felt a millon dollars that day, for somebody to notice how clean i keep my car, and not just whinge at me for using to much water when I wash it lol

EBIIXR6 · 11-08-2006, 09:28 PM

alwyas get people looking at my car when turning into car parks, they mouth "WTF's wrong with his car"- once had a guy yell out to me that my tyre was flat.... go the locka

That's just awesome! Couldn't stop laughing when I read it! Go the locka!

Sloth · 11-08-2006, 10:05 PM

Ive only ever had one. Just as I pulled up outside work, the guy next door said 'Nice car mate'. It makes you feel pretty good. I think I had washed it recently and just put in the clear indicators the night before which may have made a difference.

But a week or so after I left my car was parked on the road outside a mates place for about 10 mins and came back to find the drivers window covered in spit.

NC_GHIA · 11-08-2006, 10:40 PM

Kill them ^^^

Stupid Stupid Stupid holden fans...

Deadman · 11-08-2006, 10:50 PM

Sorry, I'm having a shocker tonight, didn't realise it was an E-series thread. Soz.

ORSMEB · 12-08-2006, 06:40 PM

I got another one today...
I was helping a mate with the front yard as he is selling the place.
I was digging away and saw a bloke walk past the house and started to look ay my ride. He kept looking and walking at the same time and then tripped because he started to vier off the path!
If he had to keep looking at my car instead of the path, I thought it was a bit of a compliment!
