Default Annoying things said by non-car people

Things I heard this past weekend and thought I would make a thread about it. These were all said by older people who own cars with ZERO modifications done to them and dont understand anything at all about modding or tuning or anything like that.

"I'd never buy a Toyota all that money goes overseas and Americans don't see a cent" headshake.gif
"My F150 is pretty f*cking fast bro, its got the V8" headshake.gif
"My Explorer has a Mustang 5.0 V8 it pulls pretty damn hard" headshake.gif
"Why would you buy a Hyundai? They're crap foreign cars. You should of bought a Chevy so you have something that lasts." headshake.gif
"S2000's are the fastest cars Honda has ever made" headshake.gif

That last one is about right...the NSX was a POS compared to what it went up against the S2000 was at least a contender...still stupid comment.
