mrbeige 0 Posted June 21, 2005 Well, since I put those Borbets on my C, soooo many people look at the car! It's getting kinda embarrasing.... :oops: :oops: :oops: Going to tint my windows I think.... :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corradophil 3 Posted June 21, 2005 In my Corrado, yes. I never noticed it untill I got my Seat which is standard. If its all getting too much you could give me your Borbets!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin Dave 0 Posted June 21, 2005 Going to tint my windows I think.... STOP..! Some things just go beyond funny. :shock: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrishill 0 Posted June 21, 2005 oddly not as much as I did when I had the valver... although that was bright blinging red and had a pretty meaty exhaust note so it probably demanded a bit more attention than my current VR, silver is a more subtle to start with and with the standard exhaust its not shouting about its presence. TBH I like it that way, when people look now I know its becuase they apreciate the car and not because theres a bloody great red loud thing coming towards them.

rmn 0 Posted June 21, 2005 yeah its the c, i get the blue car gleaming and everybody looks! Especially women, but that might not be the car :lol: :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dan 0 Posted June 21, 2005 The Corrado does carry a 'presence' with it, & does get looks from both real car enthusiasts & boy racers. Not sure about tinting my windows but. I do find myself driving with the sun visor down all the time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scarlett 0 Posted June 21, 2005 i get a lot of looks, dunno if they are of admiration or general distain at the state of the car and the really loud whining noise the C is making at the mo!!! or maybe its cos theres a girlie driving........ 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Louie Lungbubble 0 Posted June 21, 2005 Get stared at all the time. Dunno if it's the car, or my new gigs. These two didn't seem overimpressed with either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shilakadaddy 0 Posted June 21, 2005 It drives me insane! People don't stare at me... they glare Also for some reason most modified cars (corsa's, astra's, clio's) around guisborough flash their lights at me :?: I think theres another corrado in guisborough the same colour as mine, and with the reiger grille, so they think its that car... although I did get a rather hot lass in a saxo wave and smile at me... so its not all bad :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tempest 0 Posted June 21, 2005 Yup, drove my US-G60 Rado a bit more recently, and particularly kids and teenagers would say "Nice car!" when waiting at traffic lights etc. :lol: That's when the windows go shut, the airco goes on, and I have privacy again :-) Then again, when I see one when walking, I do a 180 degrees headturn as well :lol: and instantaneously miss my own Rado :lol: Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil K 0 Posted June 22, 2005 The C's got a lot of looks while out in france for the Le mans trip... we came out of the supermarket on Friday to find a few people having a look around the cars... best bit was the fact that they were completely ignooring the big red Ferrari parked 2 cars along 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yandards 0 Posted June 22, 2005 I still think the best look you can get is the one in the rear view mirror when your spolier goes up and whoever is in the car behind giving it :?: :shock: 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Funkster 0 Posted June 22, 2005 People look at the corrado, but I don't really notice 'cos it's nothing compared to the shouting, pointing and waving that goes on whenever my BGT is on the streets... :oD -- Olly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trig 0 Posted June 23, 2005 Only had mine 3 days, my girlfriend exclaimed yesterday "oh my god, everyone is looking at us!" I don't even have any mods Went into the petrol station the other day and the dude asked me what pump number, I replied "No. 1", he looked out the window at my car then did a 'double take'... I smiled and thought - yep No.1 :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
