def one of the most asked is how many cylinders is it.

 

Are those shifters on the steering wheel? No those are the stereo volume controls.

 

I got asked once if it had four or six rotors...at least he knew it didn't have pistons.

Other dumb questions include "is it fast?" and "is that yours?" (like what, I stole it?)

But the dumbest question of all is "can I drive it?" (HELL no)

 

i wouldnt say this was asked of me but it was deff the dumbest thing i have ever heard.. i'll make it as short as i can.... i was at a local car show.. around 300+ cars there... and i had my Rx parked next to my GF's TA we had just finished cleaning them and walked away to go register. as we were coming back we noticed a couple infront of it.. talking and pointing. (typically not unusual at a car show) so we walked up semi behind them close enough to hear the guy talk to the woman.. we guesstamate them to be in their 20's the guy kept pointing under the hood and we destinctly heard him say to her very confidently that it was a small block v-8 under there.. and that it should be pushing an easy 400hp the woman goes.. under that cover ? he said yeah its a nasty car.. it could beat that Trans am next to it. its the multi port that makes so much power. those renesis motors from FORD are bad.. i couldnt hold it in anymore i bust up laughing the dude looks back and says what the "f" you laughing at. i didnt wanna start a fight but i couldnt help it my comment was short and sweet.. "im laughing at your ignorance" long story short.. lol we had a 10 minute debate about my car leading from its a rotary to whats that to an explaination to how would you know... to finally saying its my car i would hope i would know. to him shutting up and walking away feeling like dumbass. he seriously tried to argue with me to save his pride for his woman who literally shook her head at him as he did this.. some people.. i mean i hate admitting that my car isnt stupid fast but most the time people dont care that it handles perfectly they just wanna know the straight line.. lol

 

is that a viper?

 

No questions yet -- I've had it less than three weeks -- but my 20-year-old daughter's first comment was "I bet you get a speeding ticket in the first week."

She lost that bet, WHEW!

 

this was at advanced auto: "man, how long would it take to change the pistons out it that toy of yours?"

wtf

 

" I hear thoes run 12 seconds in the 1/4 stock"

I told him "yea on a bad day"

 

neighbor asked - "is that the new mustang?" i'm like..."it's a mazda rx-8" WTF?!!

 

"Whats that thing got? V6?"

 

"damn 1.3 you must get great gas mileage"

 

how many cylinders?

 

OMG i thought only my neighbors were that retarded. I've got the same comment from mine.

 

Two guys walking by my car, "Hey, is that a painted black hood?" "No, It's Carbon Fiber" "Oh, It looks awesome!" "Yeah, it's a factory option."

 

gas station attendant: "how fast can it go?"
me: ive only taken it to 180

ahaha

 

yesterday at work.
Guy "hey who's red car" me "mine"
guy "nice!! is that a 4 or 6 cylinder?"
Me "actually its a rotary like int the old rx7's"
Guy " I know that but is it a 4 or six cylinder?"
Me "its a rotary"
Guy " yeah 4 or 6"
Me " a 2 cylinder"
Guy "WOW thats all"
Me "yep just a 1.3 litre"
Guy "thats small"
Me "ya but it gets me to work"

 

"Is that front wheel drive?"

 

was it meant as an insult? cause I would have been insulted quite a bit.

 

cousin- "so how many cylinders does it have?"
me- "it's a rotary engine. it has rotors instead of pistons."
cousin- "so is it a V6?"

 

"Is that thing fast?"

 

"Do you like it?"

 

By Far "1.3 wow must be great on gas" Is my top misnomer.
How many cylinders? is the most annoying.

 

Why would you buy a car that burns oil?

 

lol my funniest would have to be cousin telling me why i bought a car that i have to take care and why i didn't buy a infinity g35 lawl.....
