You know you have a cool car when....
Looking for any excuse to take my car out I noticed I only had 3/4 of a tank of gas. Bingo,
going out of town tomorrow better fill up. As I am pulling out of the driveway the one that actually works hard pulls up. "where you goin?" "um well I need to put some gas in the car" (an obvious lie!)
Anyway I screamed down the road and pulled up to a light. To my right are two girls way too young for me looking obviously at my car ( i am only 41). Oh to have a turbo 20 years ago!!!
And then next to me pulls up a Newport Beach cruiser. My radar detector is on and ready for him. He obviously wanted to check out the ride and gave me a wave and a big smile!!!
Two reasons to own a Twin Turbo....

I had a 30 something guy in an Escalade signal for me to lower my passenger side window. He asked, "what year is it?" I told him it was a 96. He then said, 'that car is f#$kin bad a$$!" Another reason.

Another Reason
I was on my way home with my girl about 9 pm @ night on a not so busy freeway. Saw a brand new GSX - R 600 at a stop light . Still had dealer temp plate on. He took off, and told my girlfriend to hang on and watch. He took off and got the hole shot, 1st gear went before you could think about it, jumped on second, and started to pull up on him, but by third gear I was passing him, all the way up to 5th gear and whooped him bad. We pulled up the the stop light, and the guy turned to me and said "What the F---- ! I cant believe that car is that f---ing fast." That there is justification of ownership.....
