How funny? I caught myself saying the same thing to an older lady in a 2009 Mustang the other day.
I asked her what year it was, then complimented her on it. Then, my dumbass asked "So do you like it"? Right after, I thought to myself, duh!!! What's she going to say? No, I hate it. Like others have said, I think it just slips out in making conversation. |

I just tell people "it's my daily driver so that I don't have a need to get the Gremlin out of the garage"
Usually makes them think long enough for me to walk away. |

Hmm. I never get that around my area. Everyone always says, "Nice SS!"
I see you are from plainfield. I'm up by Park Ridge/Niles area.

I think it's funny that you said you say NO when they ask if it's an RS... when you state in your avatar that you have an SS/RS. You do have an RS... so why say no?
" Bad70supreme Drives: 2010 aqua blue SS/RS M6 No matter were I go, people will say hey thats a nice car, is that an RS... ME...no its an SS " No? Really? I usually get "How does it ride?" And I usually respond "Very nicely, best one I've ever had" unless they're trying to be rude, then I say, "Better than that!" and make sure to point at their car |

Why not just give them an honest answer?
If you like the car, so say. If you don't, say so. I don't see any reason to get fired up about it either way. |

I can understand when someone asked do you like it. They are really asking for honest opinion from someone who has forked over the money on one. Most of the time Im asked from people who are in the market for one and give them my honest review of the car. Just like any product just because someone paid for it doesnt mean they are in love with it or wouldnt have gone another route if was in position to do it again

Great answer. I agree. I have asked people if they like their car because I was considering purchasing one. I actually love when people ask about my Camaro. Gives me the opportunity to tell them how much I love the darn thing.

-- didn't read thru the entire thread......
I think we are losing all sense of civility in our society - and that's tragic. If someone asks me if I like my Camaro - I'm going to say "I LOVE IT" without a second thought. It does not drive me crazy that people ask the question - and further, I think a retort just encourages rudeness. I'd hope you love your Camaro - and understand that it's nice to drive a car that people stop and look at.......
