It was just my car and couple normal civics and corollas and whatnot). Walked in and was told it would be a few minutes.
Sat near the counter and started looking on my phone to kill time. I had a subaru shirt on at the time (have a few left over from my old car) and the guy behind the counter was talking cars with someone in the back. He said something to the effect "Damn, the black Z out front looks awesome, but I bet you some d-bag rich guy in a suit steps into it (pizza place is next to a few stores)." I just kind of sit there laughing to myself a bit.
Pizza was ready and I was paying he noticed my shirt and tried to talk about subarus to me and wanted to see my car. I simply just said "I guess I'm the rich dbag in a suit that's going to step into his black Z over there". Kid looked genuinely shocked. He said he didn't mean to offend with what he said but usually "you don't see someone like you driving a car like that. A beat up subaru covered in dirt I could see, but not a clean Z". I said "Thanks? I guess??" and went to my car and drove away. Ef eating at that place with those scumbags again.
For the record I did look a bit scrubby that day. 6ft tall 29 year old that looks younger. Long black hair (not brushed really, just woke up) in a black subaru shirt with gray cargo shorts and flip flops.
I wish I could say this is the first time someone was surprised at the car I drive. Even friends that know that I do pretty well for myself.
