That happened to me also. When I first got my Swinger some greasy slob said to me "wonder how much bondo is in that thing?" I responded with "where's yours?".........silence. haha
I agree, but it is nice to get a compliment on your car. It makes it worth all the sweat and work you put into it. The only thing that drives me crazy is the "I had one of those" comments which I usually get at least once every show or cruise in.
