| Ok, this has happened to me so many times, that I figure it must be pretty common for Soarer owners. People (usually Commonwhore drivers) are always looking at the front of my car and then either asking me if it's a Holden, or making some comment that they didn't know Holden had made a car like that. For God's sake, can't people tell the bloody difference between a lion and a griffin??? Does this happen to everyone else as much as it does to me? Or is it mainly just because I am now living out in the boonies in a town full of bogans?  |
