don't you hate it when......

people ask, "Is that a mustang?"
I've had this car 13 days and have been asked that three times already. Today a lady asked if it was a mustang and her husband was quick to tell her "no, its a CTS." lol.
And it was the same story with my Charger R/T. And when my wife had a 4 door granf am GT with SC/T package, people asked if that was a mustang. I guess if it has a raised hood or scoop it must be a mustang.

Only idiots and women get cars confused. 2 chicks asked the same question to me until they saw the "camaro" on the front fenders. If youre a guy and cant get this right thats a call for his mancard to be revoked.

I went to the post office the other day, and the clerk kept telling my what a nice stinger I had.. She was making claw shapes with her hands and kept saying something like 'rawr' like a cat. I dunno.. it was a little weird.

Few months after i got my camaro, guy at a tattoo shop asked me if the camaro "stole its look from the new mustang or the charger". I told him i could see where someone who didnt know any better could confuse it for a mustang, but it doesnt look ANYTHING like a charger. What an idiot.
