"Daddy, that looks just like your car!"

Quote from my 6-year old when she saw one of these next to my R in a parking lot:



Kids say the darnedest things...

You shouldn't beat your children.

Really guys? She is 6, what does she know? Besides, she is probably not unlike most typical adults in her observation.

No kidding. To have anyone compare the R to anything other than racekar is sacrilege...

True story... a guy came in to my work with a '65 'cuda and I heard someone say 'It looks like its an old sprinter'

I enjoy a 3rd gear pull now and again.
just a few days ago my 3yo son said: "dad, you have a racekar."

now ever time I do it he stops what he is saying and says: "this is your racekar dad."

I told him it was faster than Lightening Mcqueen. he said "no way daddy."

My mom said the exact same thing but about this car:

My roommate said the same thing about a white one and my car. He's 24. She's ahead of the curve.

Now that's just wrong.

Color appeal is always subjective ! My mom says the blue looks like her 82' chevette , Mine will be red, some people say it's more of a girls color , mehh whatever attracts them more to me will only help !!

I know I shouldn't laugh VeeDub...but been there done that. The main reason I started to drive things that were way different from everyone else...ANd now I go back to normal...will make it easier for me to hide now.

My boys (8, 5 and 2) point out every blue hatch we pass and ask if it is an R. I have promised a prize to the first one who can correctly identify an R. So far, nobody (besides me) has. At least the 9 year old is now only asking about Golfs, and not any hatch!

[Jaydogg64]

i just tell my kids it has a bigger turbo and they go wild!! 5 and 9 and they like the boost !!

[DerGolfGTI]

No way - wait .. maybe if it had LED tails...

tell her "seriously - that Yaris gets WAY better mpg"

[JettaGT8V80]

from a distance they look just like mazda 3's

Don't get me wrong, I am not the least bit annoyed by this, I actually find it amusing. I actually love that the R looks relatively unassuming to most people.

On the flip side, when I first got my R, I told my wife that people who know what this car is will recognize it as something different and special. She looked at me like I was

Then, last week, we were driving through a parking lot and she saw a guy doing a double-take and long stare at my car (I totally missed it) and she said, "OK, you were right, I get it now."

At least she understands now....

I am coming from a Yellow with black striped Blazer Xtreme, with Vette Rallys on it. So this car will make me darn near invisible....and you just have to love the things kids say....my kids are old and they don't say things like that anymore...

My wife said it looks like a Geo Metro

Rising Blue is a great color, but it has this curse. Lots of econo boxes have a very similar blue!
