Default How many time do you get complimented on your car?

I have had alot of cars in my life. A 98 Spyder Eclipse a Trans AM just to name
two. I have never had a car that so many people complimented me on. I mean
people off the street just look as I drive by. I had two different occasions
when Police officers stopped and looked at my car and told me how nice it
looked with the rims and one cop I parked by was checking it out as he got into
his car. People always ask who's Scion is that? To go out of there way and ask
who's car is it to a total stranger is pretty big compliment. The thing about
it is that my car just has Tein Stech and 18's. It just nice to have a car that people check out. Time for a alarm though!!!

Yup, it's always nice to get props on my Box. It's hard to believe but there are still people who don't know what they are or think they're an Element.

When I drove my tC before I parted it out, I literally got compliments EVERY SINGLE time I drove it. I've spotted multiple people takin pics, too. Most of the time it's people at red lights. I've had a couple fellow tC owners follow me to my house, too. But I'm super careful when that happens, haha.

I always get guys in hondas/z's/g-35's/integs/evo's etc... trying to race me! Im just posted up doing 70! I guarantee if I pop for that turbo, I wont ever have someone try to race me ever again. I dont know why that happens!

I get a lot of compliments from girls when we go out. "You have a SEXY car!" "I love this car." "This is the nicest tc I've seen!". Its kind of a catch 22 though, sure girls like it but is that because its a girl car?

I was 3grand away from trading my TC in for a 08 Stang GT. Still tossing the idea around. I do love my TC though.
