Don't ever trust mothers or women when it comes to car trivia. Hadn't had it done to my sc right now but I have had people mistake my Celica for a Supra all the time. made me feel good.

Damn, a civic? Lol. I usually get skyline or supra. I'm also badgeless except for the griffin emblem up front. I see alot of people walk all the way around my car trying to figure it out.

The front kind of looks like a Honda Del Sol, I barely got mine so I get compliments at work, maybe cuz of the stock chrome LS wheels.

Most people have no idea what my car is? They usually ask before making a guess.

Mazda 6 and often when I tell people its a 92 they think im playing. They think its a 99 to 2000 car. Lexus could have put the SC430 engine in this car with a body kit, navi, etc and it would still sell today.
