Why? It happens...

That's just too much of a coincidence. I just whacked a bird this afternoon.

I'm getting on the highway and merging into traffic when I spot a bird hovering up above me and to the side. Well, the next thing I know he's flying straight for my car. I just knew for sure he was gonna head right into the hood scoop.

Anyway, I was just gettin' ready to roll down my window (good thing I didn't) and there he went hitting head on into my driver-side mirror. It's a good thing it's a folding mirror. He just went "DONK!" and then just kinda flew up in the air, and landed on the road. I think he was still flapping around.

I hate roadkills, and I feel really bad about it, but there's not much you can do when a bird just flies right into the side of your car. Stupid bird.

 

Wow, I'm amazed. I've not heard this before.

 

i always get the burnout questions and a lot of ppl tell me to rev my engine lol...i have gotten a NOT dumb question before tho..i was getting into my car and a kid maybe 10 years old asked me wat model impreza is that? i was kinda shocked he knew it was an impreza and i told him wrx..he said oh so u have the turbo one..isnt that one better than the rs model. 10 years old and he knows a lil bit about subies! i was impressed

 

I've probably mentioned this about 100x's on this site, but I'll make mention once again.

I don't know if it's the dumbest thing I've ever heard, but it's definitely the coolest.

I had my STi for a few weeks at the time and I pulled up next to a minivan at a light one day. This kid in the back seat rolls down the window and yells to me, "HEY! HEY! I HAVE THAT CAR IN GRAN TURISMO! HOW'D YA GET IT?" I just replied to the kid, "Credits.....lots of credits....." It was pretty cool.

 

dude, no need to apologize. everyone knows that camaro owners are pretty much inbred, ape-drape sportin' dummys. its a pretty well known fact.

 

How true! And everyone knows that Subaru owners are pretty much gay yuppies that use their vehicles for nothing more than hauling their pooches to dog shows and delivering houseplants and flowers. It's a pretty well known fact.

 

HAHAHA i knew that a comment was coming! LOL awesome!

on that note last week i had a guy ask me where my hood scoop was, (drive a 05 rs)
and then told me i didn't have a boxer motar in my car cause it wasn't an sti. lol funny thing is he was driving a camaro don't know if that says anything about camaro drivers but this guy was kinda a redneck idiot.

 

I had a guy ask me if my Camaro was a V6 and I told him it didn't have the Z28 badges on it because it was a B4C. Funny thing is he was driving a 2.5 RS. Don't know if that says anything about 2.5 RS drivers but this guy was kinda a flamer.

 

I had people ask me: when does the turbo kick in or when do you use the turbo? lol
At least I give them credit for knowing the turbo... =p

 

Ok, I think the Camaro argument/dispute/ who's ***** is bigger thing, is done. No more comments on that please.





My "friends" keep asking me when I'm gonna get a BOV and CAI..... ( owns a civic, go figure) I try telling him that's not the best thing for my car, and that the money could be better well spent on other things like DP, Cobb AP, etc. Andddddd then it forum's a 1-2 hour long argument on how he know's more about "my car" than I do.

 

"Is that thing fast? It looks like it handles really well. I was thinking about buying one, actually." Said by a cop, after giving me a speeding ticket.

 

I drive a pretty close to stock STI and a lot of people always ask me something like, "how long did it take to make your car look like this?" And then I calmly explain that the giant hoodscoop, wing, and blue interior all are standard. This always happens.

A lot of people, girls especially, get thrown off by my turbo timer. I always get, "is your car still on?"

But I think the funniest was when my friends gf asked if STI's always came with pink stickers or if I chose that color myself.

 

"man that a nice car"
-thanks
"is it and STI?????"
no
" oh, why didnt you get the sti?

people ask about my car than when they find out its not an STI (which hundered million times better for some reason) they seem uninterested, which is fine by me i dont care. its like they expected me to yes its an STI but they got the answer its a camery instead

 

i've had someone ask me that right after i bought my car, and said no then they just looked at me like i was pathatic. so...WHATEVER! haha
