Without fail I get asked EVERY time I put fuel in the car, "is it genuine", I use to say yeah, then listen to them tell me BS specs and stories about GTs.
Now I say "its just a tarted up taxi" and most will then just keep walking.
It is kind a cool to talk to people about cars, but some just have no idea and if you correct them, they start arguing with you...WTF?
As for the crap in magazines sometimes.
