1) This has happened twice while getting gas. While topping off my oil a couple of strangers tell me "that car is too new to be eating oil". Uh... not new and it has always eaten oil. I just smile and wave.

2) People who tell me they love my little Miata. Dammit, I don't own a Miata!

Yesterday I was cruising out of my neighborhood with the top down when I saw a newer Miata, top down, coming the oposite direction. As we passed the older looking lady honked twice and waved.

I wasnt able to react and wave back because I was so confused. Did she honk because she thought my car was a Miata or did she honk because we were both top down and enjoying the wheather? lol

It's a small convertible thing. People in the old British roadsters wave too.

I work for a GM service department and I had my car on the service drive with the roof down. The shuttle van driver was talking to a customer and says "I'll grab the shuttle and be right back" and the customer points to my car and says "Well, what about that guy's car? Can you take me home in that?"

i was pulling into the smoke shack the other night and two kids in a lowered integra with orange wheels said "that cars dirty" as i was walking...thinking i hadnt washed my car in a couple months i thought they were literally calling my car dirty so i shot a look at them in which one of the kids said "no, i meant dirty as in sick"...i guess there must be a generation gap lol

Once I was going to get my haircut but my usual barber was running late, So the other barber said I can not believe he is making you wait. I asked him what he meant by that and he said well he is always talking about how much money you must have because of the BMW you drive why would he be late knowing you are coming in. I started LMAO and said thats a Honda and I am broke.
My wife story is much better
Here goes.
She was at work and one of her coworkers commented on how nice her car was and then said wow see nurses can afford to have a BMW. She replied no it's better than a BMW its a Honda.
