when was the last time a total stranger said something nice about your car?

a few days ago some drunk guy said he liked how shiny my wheels were.

The only nice thing that has been said about my car is when my friend said, "This heap of shit has no right to be running as well as it is."

Its a great car, for my needs. Single guy just trying to get to and from work daily.

Could have bought a Corolla or Elantra but who needs boring economy sedans? Could have bought a Miata, but I don't need a leaky convertible in the winter months. Could have bought a VW with Germany's interpretation of reliability. Could have bought a FiST by FERD like a redneck.... Could have bought lotsa cars, but the Veloster was my choice.

Gf always comments on how loud my car is. I take those a compliments.

It's usually other /o/ guys complimenting on the VR6. Mostly VW guys. To everyone else I'm pretty sure it just looks like their grandmothers Jetta with a loud muffler.

Always get challenged by ricers that think I have a fart cannon as well and occasionally another VW person.

Why not a Focus ST? They're actually good, and are only considered "redneck cars" in the most redneck of states. I'm sorry bro, I don't like to shit on people's cars, but the Veloster's suspension and chassis design is almost literally that of an economy car. There's a reason there's no reviewers that actually like it.
