Dumbest things you've heard people say about/seen people do to their cars

As we approached the car, I noticed the single tail pipe, and when he fired it up my suspicions were confirmed. "This is a 4 cylinder", I said. He replied:"No, there's 4 in the front and 4 more in the trunk, it's an 8 cylinder!"

Wait you didnt know this? They put half the engine in the front and half in the back for 50/50 weight distribution, noob!

Take the most ridiculous portrayal of a hick/redneck you've ever seen.
Now double it.
That's him.

coming from an e46 323i owner:

1. "i have a 3 inch copper exhaust all the way from the engine..."

2. his hood emblem peeled off exposing just the base of the emblem-"this sucks! someone stole my emblem and replaced it with an older one"

I argued with my friends for HOURS one night over the 318Ti. My friends, both of them, were CONVINCED by some idiot bitch they work with that all 318Ti's came factory turboed, and and the "Ti" stands for "Turbo Injection". Anything coming out of a hot girls mouth MUST be true, right?

It literally ended in a yelling match, i got so mad at their ignorance for some reason. The next day I come over and they did their research and learned that they were wrong, and were so butthurt and embarrassed that neither of them would talk about it, and still wont to this day. Fags.

I was in my car about to get out at the skate park parking lot (you can assume lots of duche bags at the skatepark) and a new gti pulls up asks what ive done to my car, and then dismisses what i said and started going on and on about his stock (minus the new loud and pointless exhaust) gti. he was so proud of having a stick shift car he decided to burn his front tires for as long as possible until he felt it was time to leave. then decided to come back do it again finally he left after that. Kept calling me bro...

I absolutely HATE parts store clerks that think they are mechanics and try to help me with something I already know.

Even worse when they try to tell you that you're wrong when they clearly don't know.

...A guy who doesn't understand that FWD cars can also benefit from rear downforce...

Some waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles in my welding class tried to tell me his "4 barrel carb truck 454 overbored" whatever the fuck beat a supercharged 5.0 and that he makes like 500 horse power.

EDIT: This one time I was going to meet my friend and he was hanging out with all these black people. I got out of my car and the ring leader steps forward and says "dam suyun is that like a '54?"

Was looking through Instagram and a girl had posted a picture of herself with her e30. Someone commented saying "nice sedan!". Her reply back? "It's a 4 door not a sedan"


Wut

My buddy overheated on the freeway so naturally being the helping friend I am (and the only guy he knows who knows a thing or two about cars), I went to rescue him. I get to his truck pulled over and start adding water after seeing nothing visibly wrong. After about half a gallon of water, coolant starts pouring out of the hose that goes into the heater core. (he has a 2001 GMC sierra 1500, 5.4L I think?) anyways the connection that connects the heater core with this hose is plastic and being OEM and also GM it had corroded and broke. We go to the local autozone, I tell the clerk that my buddy's truck overheated and that I need a quick disconnect nozzle thingy for the heater core, can you pull up a diagram on your computer so I can show you what part it is exactly? Before I can even finish my sentence he starts asking me if I checked how much coolant was in the truck, then starts asking me if the electric fans were connected. Then asked me if the fan clutch was still good.

All the while I'm standing at the counter like -_- doodbro. Just pull up the damn diagram and I'll tell you what part I need in like 2 seconds. He keeps asking me pointless questions and I got so fed up with him treating me like I knew nothing and walked away. I looked it up on my phone and 2 minutes later gave him the part number.

Then my friend (who is going to pay a shop to do his control arms 'because they're professionals and never mess things up') is freaking out when I piece everything back together and bleed his cooling system and tells me that he still is going to take the truck to a shop to have them look at it because he doesn't know if I did a good job...

Back in my canyon running days we pulled the stock spoiler off my buddies 2000 ser sentra. Never thought id see the rear end of a sentra slide in a corner. I guess it would improve turn in though lol.

Anyways. Way back my pilot bearing was shot and made a "super charger whine" noise. To lazy to drop the trans to change it so i left it alone for a year. In that year at least 50 mustangs lined up with me at stop lights. Every single one launched from v6/8s to cobras. Confirmed every mustang owner is a douchebag.
