When I drove my Camaro home from the dealership (surprise surprise, honey ) my husband asked me "Did you even go look at the mustangs?"
my response: "what for?"

People have said, "Its front wheel drive, right?" People who actually know something about cars. Its kinda annoying. A kid i go to school with tried to tell me his dad owns a 2004 z28. I went along with him for a bit, i had him telling me what engine and options it had, color, mods, everything. Then i told him that the camaro wasnt even in production in 2004. All he could do was stutter. It was hilarious

After I pulled in to the garage one day, I got my dog and took him for a walk.
My neighbor that was outside when I pulled in said "Nice mustang!"
He's a nice guy and I didn't want to embarrass him by correcting him so I just said
thank you and kept going. He drives an eclipse so I guess it's good to cut him some slack.


Another time, after parking the car in a parking lot:

Random guy: "Did you get the V8?"
Me: "Nope, got the V6"
Random guy: "Well at least tell me you got the manual!"
Me: "No I have the automatic."
Random guy: "Why did you even get a Camaro then?"


One time at work the guy who cuts the grass told me he didn't mow the area near my
car because he "didn't want to damage that $40,000 car." I thought it was awesome
that he was that polite and considerate, but I also corrected him and he was surprised at
how much it actually cost.

Coworker: I am so glad that you got the SS. All I see around town are RS's, it's so nice to see an SS in town finally.

When the Camaro returned, I was parked next to one talking to the owner when a man came up and asked what the difference was between a Mustang GT and a Mustang SS.
