I like to tell people that pistons are a myth and i always prove my point whenever some stupid kid (Im 27) says he can beat me with his civic.
i also showed my title to someone one time b/c he did not believe when i said i dont have pistons...it shows a big fat 0 where cylinders SHOULD be!!
any way great thread

It's easy to freeze up if you're not used to people approaching you.
My wife was coming home one day and was stuck behind someone doing 20 under the speed limit. They happened to pull into the same sidestreet and the SUV stopped, and the lady got out and walked up to her and started yelling at her because she thought my wife was following too close. My wife actually started crying. (Though she was much younger when this happened.)
The right answer would have been to take the pepper spray she keeps nearby (because she drives a convertible and sometimes pulls up at a light or something in a bad neighborhood) and spray the lady in her stupid face. If the lady tries to sue or something, the answer is "I didn't know why she got out of her car, she was driving erratically and way under the speed limit, I thought she might have been on drugs!"

last weekend at the junkyard after pulling an engine and getting ready to pay. I'm standing there watching all the people give me weird looks and watching these two Hispanic guys pointing and talking in Spanish. and infront of them a guy buying a side marker ask me:
guy: going to take you 1hr to get that thing running?
Me: ohh I don't think so
guy: honda engine?
Me: No, it's a mazda rotary
Guy: Oh I use to race thoes, they're very reliable.

My girlfriend and I are on the highway in my debadged '86. We pass a guy in an RX-8. I look over and wave, he gives no response.
Me: Eh that guy's a moron. He doesn't know what he's driving.
Girlfriend: No, he doesn't know what YOU'RE driving.
Me: Eh that guy's a moron. He doesn't know what he's driving.
Girlfriend: No, he doesn't know what YOU'RE driving.

I have injector envy!
I hear alot of the time at stoplights.
Them: Hey your car's exhaust is on fire
Me: Yeah I know
Them: You should get that fixed
Me: Naw I like it like that
and it is so true about how dissapointed non enthusiasts get when you say you have a second gen. Everyone only thinks rx-7's are the 93-95 and twin turbo.
Easiest thing I do to explain the rotary is I say there are two triangles spining in housings shapped like peanuts and they are attached with gears like a spirograph.

Even though it's been mentioned already, I do agree that it is disappointing when someone asks the year, you tell them 88 or something (FC) and they're either "oh..." meaning they have no clue what it looks like, or ew, not an FD. I just wanna smack them in the head.

Lovin my 7
[QUOTE=Eva001Ikari;6480321] "Why does your engine sound like its broken." oddly enough it took him an hour and a half to find my oil filter thing. After that i walked away saying "its ported *******"QUOTE]
Here I am enjoying all the funnies and then I hit a wall when I read this... You knew it was ported but not how to change your own oil.... I will say no more. Oh wait.... You took it to Sears???

i've gotten:
"dude, do you know you're pouring oil in the gas tank?"
"does that thing have a V-8?" (from mustang owners)
"this thing is LOW" (when civic drivers sit in my car)
"how do you get out?" (the same civic drivers trying to get out)

a friend of a friend said the other day my '7 looks kind of like a Prelude... ouch
yeah, it's a two seater with a few curves, but that's about it, haha
oh well, she wasn't mean about it, and I was kicking myself for forgetting for about 30 seconds what a Prelude looks like.

Him: Yea, what kind of car is it again?
Me: Wtf?

Two from me:
I was buying a drink at a gas station one day, left my mazda running outside, and I notice some redneck in a wife beater and-NO LIE- A freaking Skynard Ball cap hovering around my car.
"Hey Main...you might oughta get your head gaskets checked..I thank yew popped one..I can smell the coolant."
Me- "Yea, it's no biggie, I run my car without em." I got in my car and left, leaving him shaking his head and muttering in confusion.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I also would like to point out when I bought my rx7, that it was the first car I ever decided to try to learn about....I had honest to god NEVER looked at a piston engine before. I had to sell my rx7 because my wife is preggers, and when I first took a look under the hood of my 03 galant.... I was taken aback.
My exact quote was "Oh my god! What the Hell is that?!"
Lol, im so dumb.

Also along the lines of an old post by aaron about the ignorant stuff said by rx-7 owners.
Random inital D fan or RX-7 owner: "Nice FC3S!"
Me: "Thank you but it's not an FC3S, it is an FC33."
