I don't live out in the woods, but I had two redneck kids in an old hard body pull up next to me at a grocery store stop sign. The driver leaned out his window towards my Z and said "Yo, light 'em up." I couldn't help but laugh as I pulled away normally.

A 350Z rolled up next to me and was like, "You know we have the same engines."

Me: "Cool."

Him and his flat billed, sidways cap: "It's an HR."

Me: "Nice car man...", and drove off.

Huntersville: "Nice car! Looks awesome!"
Monroe:
SRT-4 Neon drivers; *constantly rev's to get blow off to chirp*
Mustang owners (legal requirement here to have 3 Mustangs per 2 city blocks I believe): "That thing go as fast as it looks?/That thing is qui(eee)ck, no?"
Me: "Nope. Slow as d*ck."

Haha, I grew up in Waxhaw (my parents are still there). What's better is that every big truck driven by a 23 year old guy tries to drag race me at stoplights. I drive normally.

I get some pretty stupid questions and today I got like 3 of them in a row...

1. "Why did you buy a sports car if you don't take it to the track to race it?"

2. "Why did you put aftermarket wheels on the car? It came with factory wheels"

3. "Why do you mess with the engine? Changing the engine, changes the car"

Since you are in NOVA, you should come out to a MAZOC meet. Some fairly reasonable folk in the group. They meet in Fairfax and Columbia on alternating Saturday mornings. Checkout this thread...
