that is so weird! same thing happened to me! i went to radio shack (to deal with this HDTV fiasco im trying to solve in time before superbowl) and as i get back to my car, this older lady who looked in her 60's was looking it over. meanwhile her 13'ish looking son/grandson was not interested AT ALL and kept wanting to hurry her into the store.
i heard her say "huh, what kind of car is that? ive never seen a car like that before. that looks like a mans car thats used for some kind of special thing" (her exact words). and then they cross the parking lot and i hop in in a hurry (because im frustrated) and heard her say "oh its that mans car".
a few weeks before that, i leave a gas station and this woman in her 30's (not attractive though, to me anyway, no offense if your reading this) said "i love your car! even if i had the <something engine related> and flywheel and gears that im saving my money for i still wouldn't be faster!" referring and pointing to her integra parked next to my car.
and then few weeks before that some hot chick walking on the sidewalk downtown screamed at me "woooo! that's hot!"
i never get any looks or attention in my car usually, but lately its been females only. i drive my car everywhere its my main form of transportation and looks exactly as in my avatar <<
