People assume that I have good taste

duh!

But seriously, people assume that I should buy a winter beater.

If I end up falling in love with the Camaro after years of driving it and having fun with it. I'll buy another and make it a garage queen. If used ones are only available, they should still be cheap to buy for at least another 20 years until the numbers seriously dwindle... So yes, my car will end up in a dump or will be scavenged for parts in a decade or two because it has 200k-300k miles, but if I die tomorrow, at least I got to drive it.

People assume that I am a total stud who is brimming with total badassery ...and they are absolutely correct!

They also assume that I have a huge ego. I have no idea why.

On this forum, way too many people assume that having a v6 means I couldn't afford a v8 and settled for something less.

On this forum too many V6 drivers assume that V8 drivers invariably have a superiority complex.

Maybe not invariably, but there are surely a huge number of posts where that is the case.

Always get asked if it has the V8. No it doesn't have the V8 and I could not get the V8 that year in this color. PITA explaining it every time.

Only enthusiasts have a clue!

I had an older man ask me if mine was a stick shift.

I said "Yes sir."

He gave me a thumbs up and said "That's the only way to go with a v8."

I said "Yes sir."

Some people assume I'm trying to relive my lost youth. I threaten to hit the whippersnappers with my cane!

I dont have it yet, but people know I'm getting it soon, and they say I'm spoiled, rich, dont deserve it, or something else stupid.
