So I park my car, get out, and this ghetto kid sitting on the hood of his pimptastic corolla is talking on his cell phone. So whatever, I walked by and then I hear him say "aye, aye blood, aye, aye blood." (loose translation to those out there who don't speak ghetto: aye=exuse me, hey, psst, etc; blood=bro, dude, sir, etc) So I turn around and said wassup, he says to me "aye, ain't that the car from fast and furious?" So I say to him "don't ever say that about my car" and walked away.
In retrospect, I don't think he meant anything derogatory by what he said, and judging by his Kragen accessorized corolla, I think it might've been admiration like someone saying to a shelby GT500 owner isn't that eleanor? Anyway, just struck a nerve and I was in one of those moods.
Anway, I was too busy to mull over this, after all I had to collect a pink slip for my Jetta that I won and then I swing back to the shop and install sr20dets into a couple of civics; and that bastard ted pulling a premium on those engines right before race wars.
Just wanted to share, feel free to close thread.

 

Ahahaha

 

it happens.

maybe he was trying to give you "props" as it were. Certainly better than "Give me your car or I'll shoot you."

 

Yeah, I was thinking that later on, like I said, I was in some kind of mood.
But that's no joke though, I am glad I didn't get jacked cuz it is oakland afterall, although it was 9am in the morning and them criminal folks are usually sleeping... after all, if they weren't they'd be employed.

 

Buahahahahaha

 

I hate how EVERYONE who sees that your car is modified automatically refers to "2 fast 2 furious"

I live in downtown Atlanta, and we have our fair share of stupid ghetto retards. "dang man, dat one uh dem 2 fast 2furious cars aint it?"

gross.

 

Here in PR is different!

Trust me you are going to see a lot of MIRAGE with HUGE WINGS and Fart Can Exhaust!

Those are the ricers, You barely see an S2k, And Almost Imposible to see a Modified one

 

I weep for the state of America. Those movies make a ridiculous amount of money. I bet some people really think that flames shoot out of mufflers like a flame thrower on sports cars now. But this thread makes me laugh pretty hard actually. When you won the Jetta pink slip did you tell the guy that he was "Granny shifting instead of double clutching like he should"?

 

What I hate more is the fact that drag racing is glorified as being such a test of driving skill.
