The best for me,
Standing in a group of people and hearing some guy say "have you seen that green sprint getting round town? it's got a pink sticker on the back, that's clean as!" I'm just standing there, not saying a word, thinking this is awesome. Biggest grin. =D

Well I've had no licence for a while now so there's mostly mates and a few people at uni that I don't even know asking where my car is, and commenting on how clean it looks, then you tell them your collecting turbo parts and their eyes light up like you own a Ferrari, lol. It gives you a good feeling and makes you wanna rob a bank to finish your car A.S.A.P. haha.

I just got one today when I was working at the construction site. It was parked on the dirt and a bloke came up to me and said..."Excuse me, is that your XR?" I replied with "ahh, yeah". "That's the straightest one i've seen, that's mint as" he says. "Cheers" I replied.
Then we went back to doing our own work!

I went into the tyre shop not long ago and a guy was looking over at my car. The first thing he said to me was that i had just inspired him to wash his car. He asked me how much work i put into it because everytime he sees it out on the street he says it looks schmick. ( I have to big stickers on the back window so my car is pretty easy to spot on the road.) Geez I felt a millon dollars that day, for somebody to notice how clean i keep my car, and not just whinge at me for using to much water when I wash it lol

Ive only ever had one. Just as I pulled up outside work, the guy next door said 'Nice car mate'. It makes you feel pretty good. I think I had washed it recently and just put in the clear indicators the night before which may have made a difference.
But a week or so after I left my car was parked on the road outside a mates place for about 10 mins and came back to find the drivers window covered in spit.

I got another one today...
I was helping a mate with the front yard as he is selling the place. I was digging away and saw a bloke walk past the house and started to look ay my ride. He kept looking and walking at the same time and then tripped because he started to vier off the path! If he had to keep looking at my car instead of the path, I thought it was a bit of a compliment!
