Funny story coming home from dealership!
I dropped off my car this morning to get it serviced at Honda of Santa Ana. Well, i got it back from them around 4 PM and i exited the dealership making a left on Edinger. As i passed the 55 freeway and came up to the crossroad of Edinger and that long straightaway that eventually meats up with Irvine Center Drive, i saw a green light, but no one moving for like 15 secs and people were honking like crazy. I moved over to the other lane and saw it was a new 04 silver coupe (with the factory aero kit, chrome rims, and exhaust; looked like the thermal research one) and some chick was taking it for a test drive and stalled at that light.
OK honest mistake i guess and i look in my rear view mirror and see the car accelerating pretty quick and comes into my lane and we hit a red on Irvine Center and Harvard and she moves over to make a left and bust a U-turn back to the dealership. Both of our lights turn green and i see the exhaust jiggling and vibrating like crazy, she was giving too much gas and not letting up on the clutch (probably panicked because there were a line of cars behind her again). Well, guess what i saw the car buck back and forth and she stalled again
. As i drove by their window i see the sales guy waving his arms around and he was probably thinking
. I laughed and gave two honks at them for fun while i drove passed them.

thats why i didnt drive my car back from the dealership cause that would have been me i know what thats like though and it sucks but is a good laugh
I work at a motorcycle shop, you should see the fun in the alley when people get their first sport bike and try to leave. Alot of those things roll form lights at like 3000 rpm. Its hella funny watching kids try to look cool, like we cant tell that they have no clue what they are doing.
