So how do you truthfully answer that question in fifteen seconds while idling Loudly next to another vehicle?
I don’t have the time at the light to explain that my car was built in 2009 to replicate a 1965 vehicle while my car is exploding out of the sidepipe right next to his ear.
So, I lie and say “1965” just to avoid a shouting match. Just seems simpler.
My bad.
I answer "It's a 6 year old replica of a 1966 Shelby Cobra". Short enough to shout to someone who asks that question. And, you're right, it gets asked a lot.
