What are the best remarks you have had about the car so far?

So we all know by now how much attention our cars get.
There is an argument as to which colours get more attention etc, but bottom line is they all do!

Interested to hear what the best remarks were that you have had so far?

Had a couple of goods ones in the past week:
First was a block standing by a cash machine at a petrol station as I drove up to get some cash out.
He was staring at the car and says to me: Mate, I don’t usually like VW's but this was looks amazing!

Yesterday I had a classic, two blokes staring at it from across the road as I came back from a shop, asking me whether it was the MK6!!! (Meaning the new Gold of course...)

I has somebody say 'it looks like its doing a hundred miles an hour at stand still' not quite sure what that is supposed to mean :hmmm:

Another guy said it looks like a shark from the front :yikes:

Another asked if it would be ok if he had a look around the car :photo:

On a few occasions people have asked what it is - probably thinky somthing much more exotic than a VW :cool:

The worst comment I've had is that it looks like a squased VW Beetle! :puke:

"Sweet ride, looks like a Delorean" :D

Driving through heavy traffic at a snails pace this morning, a VW Corrado driver coming the opposite way, pulled along side me and motioned to put my window down - on doing so he leaned out of his window and said "that's the sweetest mother f@cking ride I have seen on the road in years man! Sweet as sugar on a bitch's ass""

Priceless!!! :hyper:
My Roc was fast - but now its FASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Roc On!!
