Ever had your Starion called a Cordia?

Post by MrBishi »

Every second person I meet calls it a bloody Cordia. For shame!

Not to mention it being called a Camaro, Supra??, or RX7 on many occasions. The Cordia crack riles me the most though.

This has happened tome a number of times.


Also, one time (quite a while ago) I was asked if it was FWD....this was just after I had smoked both tyres. :roll:

when i was living in Toowoomba, they have a real fast and furious group of people there, and i was just filling up the tanks before taking it down to Brisbane, and a couple of kids in Lancers, and Imprezas were having an argument over whether it was a 300zx or a celica, it was only when they had a look at the front with the mitsu badge and they decided it must be a scorpion. One of em came up to me and asked me what it was, he was a bit of a tool so I told him it was a delorian......
...and on the seventh day god made mercedes.... and he saw it was perfect...

Some guys pulled up next to me not too long ago and said "nice rota"
I told them it wasnt and he randomly went though, 200sx, RX7, 300zx, 280sx before I took off..

Some people have no idea... :roll: how can anyone not know what a starion is.... :shock:

Well, I've had some be-ewwwwtys!

Celica - Fairy nuff, they do look similar
Supra - see above
RX-7 - a little like a series 4 or 5 maybe
Corvette - I asked him to put his glasses back on!!!!!!
Trans AM - similar, but a LOT bigger.
Ferrari??? - Ok, the Staz is a sexy beast, but not quite Ferrari sexy. It did make my day though
