These stickers are for 323 GTXs and Celica Alltracs when you want to brag how cool your car is to everyone on the road i think.
yeah...good luck with that buddy. Id rather just keep my car in tact and not have to deal with fighting a tow company for damages

Its not to "look cool" at all, its for anyone who doesnt want their car screwed up, if you live in or visit anyplace with limited street parking, the prospect of getting towed is higher than average, so this sticker serves a purpose (a very good one at that)

Good luck fighting not-very honest tow companies and all that hassle when your ****s towed by the front wheels only

Plus, unless you have a witness or the tow is caught on camera I can guarantee the tow company is going to deny towing your car incorrectly.

yeah thats true. I was planning on getting one for the GTX just since it doesnt look AWD but i guess it should be on all cars because you wont be there when it gets towed and theres no way for you to find out if they flat bed towed it or not.

I didnt think about them pulling your car from a parallel parking spot and not caring about it, and since they are just trying to make money they wouldnt care. I want one now, SF isnt the best place to be without one.

Most cars dont "look awd" either. Most normal folks dont even know what an sti or evo is, let alone that its awd. I would not trust some tow truck guys car knowledge

i remeber why i always though they were stupid, because i didnt want my GTX to get stolen, i didnt want any extra attention parking it in the city, but was also afraid of it being towed.
