i wake up to an old guy next to my window but not looking in. i hear him go "hey (some other guys name that he was there with) is that new corvette?" other guy goes " i dont know maybe? what does it say on the back?" so the guy near my window walks behind my car while im trying to not laugh. "its a celica?" he says with confusin lol.  then they go back to walking around the track that lines the parking lot. yeah haha end of story. pretty weird. -------------------- |

That's dumb people right there. There is NO excuse for not recognizing the tiny-ass headlamps on the Integra and the big and bigger ones on a Celica. Some people just don't pay attention to detail.
 Oh, some little girl called my Celi a Honda. I almost bitch-slapped the **** outta her!

I donno, people never mistaken my car... The Rice-Accord owner at my dad's place would say "nice celica!"... When I go to cigar shop the old dude would be like "nice 6th gen!", and I'd reply back "nice celica supra!"
If anyone calls my car an "integra", I'd be so mad... -------------------- |

Perhaps these guys are not quite Americans and are ignorant on what we drive here? Shoot, that is pretty cool though to be mistaken for a Vette!!
