COOL OLD MAN!! *skyline*

On my way home from work this older guy probably in his 50's pulls up next to me at a red light and say's "hey! is that a reall skyline?" dude had the biggest smile and i didnt want to burst his bubble so i said "yeah its straight from japan" ..he goes "great i love those cars , it looks great take care of it" lol thought it was pretty cool he even knew what a skyline was... cool old man in my book.

Actually you are driving a Skyline from Japan that has been renamed a G35 for the U.S. market.
