Same bloody questions!

The questions that nearly EVERY person asks when they find out you've got a supra - The bits after are what I feel like saying, but out of politeness never do;

"I bet that goes fast doesn't it?" No mate, it's a 3 litre straight 6 twin turbo but it can't outrun a milk float

"What's the insurance like on that then?" Oh, £2.50. What do you think, it's a sports car!

"How fast does it go?" Well, if I push the pedal on the right it can go... well, very fast.

"A supra? Isn't that like a subraru?" Yeah, except it's rear wheel drive, a coupe and not based on a rally car.

Sorry for the rant, I know people are just being polite, but it's getting a bit repetitive being so damn popular

I hate the "yeah but I know someone with a Subaru... THATS fast".... yeah pal I can hardly keep up

Some one always know someone with something faster! Bless Im up for a race!

How fast? (pick a number??)

0-60 time? (I dunno, im not in top gear!)

Has it got N2O? (im not in F+F)

How much was it? (none of your business)

Lets see it go then (No)

Lets see a burn out (No)

Bet that uses fuel (yeah and I dont care)

I dont like it (I dont care)

Whats the piont? (youll never know you dreary fcuker)

What about when you're washing your car "You're gonna make it rain!"

Every time!!!

oh blimey ive been asked the subaru thing! a guy at work pretended to know everything about the 'supra' but after i let him waffle for about 5 mins it was like 'no mate your talking about a subaru, this is totally different'. hes never asked about it since!

Bet that uses fuel

yeah I love that one.... "No mate it runs on f***ing bad language!"

What about when you're washing your car "You're gonna make it rain!"

Every time!!!

Or a neighbour walks past and asks “Fancy doing mine while your at it?”

“Only if I can shag your wife when you're at work” should be my witty response but sadly all my neighbours wives got beaten to shit with the ugly stick!

Whats the point? (youll never know you dreary fcuker)

 

>>>How fast?

very

>>>0-60 time?

too fast to measure

>>>Has it got N2O?

>>>How much was it?

>>>Lets see it go then

why?

>>>Bet that uses fuel

safe bet

>>>I dont like it

that is sad, depressing news

>>>Whats the piont?

you ask the questions, you should know if there is a point

The one I dislike the most is " My( insert relationship) has got a Celica as well!" Had this a few times. I was thinking about replying "No different car mate, this was the prototype for the Yaris"

Slightly off topic, but my favourite overheard comment , was in response to a little boys question to his dad as the were along side the car. The kids is going nuts at the car and says to his dad, " Hey dad look at that, what car is it? ( Dad has not got a bleeding clue) Walks past with out saying a word snatches a quick glance backward and sees the badge and knowledgeably says "It a Supra son"

Yeah that's about right, I always get asked if it's got nos for some reason, and when I say no they ask if I'm gonna get it.

and the 0-60, to which I have to explain that it's a GT cruiser, the speed of the thing is more noticeable from a rolling start and the 0-60 time tends to give a very modest impression of the cars performance.......... oh and it's less than 5 seconds!

yeah I love that one.... "No mate it runs on f***ing bad language!"

wish it did, I'd be quids in!

LOL! good thread

Iv had so many people say to me "whats the point having a car that fast? u cant use it anywhere" Grrrrrrr!

When i told my mum i was getting a supra i turned up at her house and she said "thats not like the blue rally cars on tv" Grrrrrrrrrrr!

Also was filling up at the station the other day and there were a bunch of kids looking as i went in to pay i hear one of them saying "Wow nice car with the spoiler and everything" the other kid said "yeah its a BMW" felt like putting him in the boot and teach him a lesson! "DONT U EVER CALL THIS CAR A BMW EVER AGAIN!" Grrrrrrr!

What about when you're washing your car "You're gonna make it rain!"

Every time!!!

Don't forget the "You can do mine next".. Bloody Hilarious...

First question I'm ALWAYS asked is "Is it a twin turbo?". Used to really annoy me when I had the NA.

Last funny question I had was "Who did your spray job? What colour is it?" - Erm... Toyota and Royal Sapphire Pearl.

"My had one of these once. Celica isn't it?" - Aarrgh!

My favourite one was when i was chatting to a mate in a car park and these kids rolled up in a Nova about 20 yards away with windows down. Heard one say "Rar! Skyline!". Then another shouts "Nah, thats not a Skyline. Thats a Mitsubishi". Bless em.

A girl i was getting friendly to saw a picture of the car and called me a chavvy boy-racer. When asked why she replied "Cos you've got alloy wheels and a stupid big spoiler on the back. It dont make it go faster you know!". I held back my frustration and tried to explain that the spoiler was standard on the car and NEVER, EVER call me a boy-racer again!!"

I had a tesco car park insult...

Dad and son walk past as I'm getting in the car,

Son : wow look at that dad....

Dad : Oh - its only one of those toyotas...

Me : ( watches as he heads over to his car... and gets in a Ford Probe.... and smiled inside )

Wasn't even worth getting upset about - just felt sorry for the little boy!

Or a neighbour walks past and asks “Fancy doing mine while your at it?”

 

“Only if I can shag your wife when you're at work” should be my witty response but sadly all my neighbours wives got beaten to shit with the ugly stick!

Having a seriously bad day and didn't think I was going to crack a smile............I was wrong:clap:

I often tell people it's electric powered when asked about fuel consumption. It runs so quiet they almost believe me.

Best one i ever had was, 'Wow! a ferrari!!'

And you all say red is a bad colour!

Also had the 'oh its a toyota?' coment loads of times, closely followed by the obligatory empty head comment of 'Is it a celica?' DIMWITS!!

Yep, I've also had the "Is it a twin turbo mate" question. Grrrrrr!!!

For which I say; Nope it's an N/A MATE. Then they just walk away with disappointment??

Still, it was great when they got back in there 1.6L Family Ford and I got back in to my:

MUCH QUICKER, NON-BAD LOOKING AND ALSO USED AS AN EVERYDAY 3.0L 24V SUPRA FAMILY CAR THAT DOES'NT LOOK LIKE EVERY OTHER F%CKER ON THE ROAD

SO THERE

I also get asked...is that a twin turbo?

I say 'yes'

They say, 'bet thats quick'....to which i respond...

'no, its wank, don't buy one!' TWAT!

Iv had so many people say to me "whats the point having a car that fast? u cant use it anywhere" Grrrrrrr!

Yup had that many a time.

Ive also been labelled a boy racer at work coz all the cars ive had, have had big wheels and a noisy exhaust
